Spa Hotels in Alicante

We recently spent nine nights in this hotel and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The rooms, though not huge are spotless and very well equipped. Cleaning was top class…. Compliments to the chambermaid whose name I didn’t get ( room 909) . Staff at reception were very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. There was a wide variety of food available……fruit, yogurts, cold meats, cheeses, cakes, bacon, eggs, sausages and a good selection of breads. The location is excellent……across the road from airport bus stop and fifteen minute walk from train station. It is a short walk down to the old town and promenade. There is a bar and food service in the lobby in the evenings which we were unaware of for the first few days. Perhaps this could be better advertised, maybe as one approaches the lifts? The lift situation is quite slow……there are only two lifts for ten floors and they take ages to come. A small quibble for an otherwise excellent hotel. We would be more than happy to stay here again.

Yes, a total of five rooms were set, one of which was free for an extra bed for the little ones. There is an additional charge for parking, and there is a very small swimming pool on the roof. The foreigner is watching the sun very seriously.

The room is very spacious, the bedroom and bathroom are separated, the reception staff is very nice and even delivered the luggage to the room.

My friend and I are just back from 3 days staying at the Hotel Spa Porta Maris by Melia. The good points: - great location; 5-10 minutes walk to the beach, old town and promenade where there are lots of cafes/restaurants and market stalls. About 20 mins walk to the higher-end shops and El Corte Inglés department store - comfy beds, large shower, decent wardrobe/drawer space, balcony big enough for 2 - entire hotel is spotlessly clean - nice buffet breakfast in restaurant with amazing views The not so good points: - check-in was a little slow - we arrived around 1pm to be told our room wasn't ready and may not be until around 4pm. We were able to store our cases safely until then but had to get changed and freshen up in the restaurant toilets - our stay was paid in full well in advance of our arrival but they still took my credit card details. This was possibly to cover any in-room charges but this wasn't made clear - the bar seemed to close relatively early for a city centre hotel (not sure what time exactly but I think it was before midnight) All in all, I would recommend this hotel and have no hesitation in using again.

The hotel is very well and centrally located at the marina. From there you can reach the city center in just a few minutes on foot and the beach is also in front of the door. As the name of the hotel suggests, the hotel basically consists of 2 types of suites: a marina view suite and the more expensive open sea view suite. For us, the marina was also a beautiful sight and the room is large and spacious. The bathtub next to the bed was honestly one of the reasons I chose this hotel and I have no regrets. The entire complex, from the street to the sea, belongs to the Melia hotel chain and is therefore “shared” with the Spa Hotel Porta Maris. However, care is taken that the breakfast is in a different room than that of the guests of the other hotel. There is also a ”private” exclusive pool for the guests of the Suites del mar. The breakfast is really very good, you have a magnificent view of the sea and through the ”orange machine” you have the freshest orange juice. Nespresso is also available for a good coffee - the other coffee machine for cappucino etc is a shame!! Why is there a machine with coffee and milk powder in such a hotel???? Otherwise everything according to the price. The staff is friendly and speaks good English. Parking garage costs €20 per day/night - that was too much for me, we parked for free in the area and then took a short walk to the hotel.

Nice hotel very nice food and an excellent location with views over the golf course and near tram stops too if you need to get into the city.Nice staff but we got back from a night out and the bar was closed but given the location we would use this again .
