Rooms were clean and cool, nice and cozy although being on some of the higher floors made me a little scared and my little brother managed to drop one of his bouncy balls from the toy machines here off the balcony (i have a fear of heights) being right by the beach is great and the surrounding town was very nice to go out and chill in at the evening. overall amazing place, glad to have came here, was so sad to leave.

Stayed here 4 times so far. The hotel is fabulous. The foyer is breathtaking…read more The rooms themselves are clean and bright, are a reasonable size and each room has its own balcony. The food is good but inall honesty I have noticed it deteriorating from the standard it was at 4 years ago. I always stay all inclusive and I feel it represents good value although the mid afternoon snacks tends to be lunchs leftovers. Four stars, two years ago it would of been five.

Although this is an hotel (also good value and recently completely rennovated) run by two English…read moreguys with great staff, it also has two bars and very good restaurant offering mainly good English food. One of the two bars is situated on the ground floor and the other at the top of the building with a superb terrace offering great views. Meals (including bar snacks) are available in the ground floor bar and the restaurant on the first floor is well appointed. If you are after English food, you will probably be hard pressed to find better value. One of the owners, Wayne, provides cabaret virtually every evening in the ground floor bar and there are also other good acts to watch. Prices are reasonable, the staff delightful and the atmosphere is always friendly. Restaurant and bars fully airconditioned. Adjoining the Queens is the Beer Barrel, also owned by them. There is a large outside terrace, shared between the two enterprises. Sorry - the address should read Placa de Constitucion, 5.

I stayed here 1 night in May 09. A really good hotel, given the location I was worried it might be…read morea bit tacky or run down but it was actually a really nice place. It's a huge high rise, spanning about 12 floors and the views from the higher floor balocnies are amazing, if a little scary! The whole hotel has a smart appearance and everywhere is extremely clean and well kept. The room I stayed in was large with a double bed, wardrobe, desk, TV, en suite bathroom with bath and shower, and sea views with balcony. I stayed half board and the food was excellent. There was a good choice at dinner with gorgeous fresh omlettes and very tasty pizza amongst others. Breakfast was good too with plenty of choice. Staff were very helpful and polite & courteous. There was free wifi in the lobby, a swimming pool, bar and nightly entertainment. A good place to stay if you are headed to Benidorm.

This is an ok hotel with overall nice staff, but it has important flaws: odor problems, not greatly…read morelocated, abusive checking-in practices and serious problems with the design of the rooms. I'll explain: The location is not great. It is in front of the cargo harbor and the surroundings are dead. It is disconnected from the city and there is not even a cafe around. There are not Ubers coming here most of the time. Believe it or not, the check in "starts" at 3 pm. I wrote them in advance requesting them to be sensitive to the fact that I was traveling transcontinentally, but, even though they confirmed that the hotel had available rooms when I arrived in the morning, there was no way for them to avoid making me wait untill late afternoon to get access to my room.: In a totally unusual manner, they start giving rooms almost at dinner time. Very insensitive, not-making-sense-at-all and unlike the way any serious hotel deals with check in time. When I finally got my room, the bathroom had drainage issues and the whole room had an awful sewage smell, that did not go at any time during the two days I stayed there. Quite unpleasant. On top of that, the room is poorly designed. The bathroom has no door, so that, if you share the room with someone else, one is waken up by the light of the bathroom being used by the other person, in the middle of the night (can you believe no one thought about something as basic as this during the design process?). Overall: I would not recommend to use this hotel. This city has tons of good hotels, no need to come to the not-great one.

Standard AC hotel…read more This is a business chain with characteristic smart modern decor and service. Excellent value. Scrupulously clean. Good sized rooms. Rooftop pool. Easy walk into the city centre. Underground car park is a bit bijou if you're trying to park a rental car. (Don't hire a big one, for goodness sake - or make sure it comes with rear view cameras.) Definitely recommended. (Wifi and minibar is free if you're a Marriott Elite member in an exec room. We had to remind them, but all got sorted out easily.)

This is a lovely-looking property. But there are a lot of problems. The first room to which we were…read moreassigned had a foul smell of sewer gas. So we asked for a change and were happily assigned another (smaller) room. Unfortunately the air conditioning did not work. In the third room, the shower leaked so badly that every wash up became a disaster. So for a lovely property, and one where the staff seem particularly efficient and friendly, the engineering department needs to step up its game.

The marina across the main road makes for a lovely stroll in the evenings. Even the happening Marmarela and Ocean Race Museum is just 10 minute walk away. Smartly designed rooms with old world architectural accents throughout juxtaposed with modern practicality and efficiency. Exemplary hospitality staff who go out of their way to care well for you. Stunning view of the "face of the moor" castle from the rooftop pool and bar.

Our room was two rooms a sitting room, a bedroom with a bathroom and a bidet. 10 stars for any hotel that provides a bidet. Viva España. We had a kettle and in 8 nights we used it once. Why on Earth would anyone make coffee in the room surrounded by places making some of the nicest coffees we've had in a long time. We had a fridge which was put to great use and the air con was top notch. The bed was cosy the view was fabulous. The breakfast choices were pretty good. Like all hotels the coffee could be better but it was fine for machines - we are just very fussy. The scrambled egg was delicious. We mention it as often this is dried out or cold in many hotels. The mushrooms were real tasty too - scrambled was available daily but mushrooms were now and again. If you have a sweet tooth there are plenty of sweet treats, jams, honey, cakes, biscuits. It's been a long time since I saw Marie biscuits. The ladies cleaning the rooms do a real good job. The staff are friendly and courteous but can be under a tad of pressure at times at breakfast. The bar staff make ace cocktails on 26th floor and the views are stunning. I only had credit card and wanted to tip at the bar but it wasn't straightforward using a card. The only thing we found tedious was having to wait on the lifts but it was occasional. You need a key card to work the lift or you're going nowhere. The lift on the right as you face them goes to 26 floor but the one on the left stops at 25. We are likely to return. If you want to buy some essentials go out the front door and turn left immediately - you'll be walking away from the sea. There's a supermarket on the same side of the street about 1/2 minutes Suma I think. They'll rip you off. Keep walking uphill you'll see a KFC and a Five Guys and when you get near the top by the main road on the right hand side there's an excellent home bakery with a good supermarket next door. Across the main road is the stunning huge meat, fish and vegetable market - Mercado. Looks like the entrance to a train station. Bombon Boss cafes are excellent coffee stops.

The beach itself, is within easy walking distance. The room was quite small and the elevators - all two of them - were small and inadequate for a 23 or 24 story building. Breakfast buffet was adequate for the price. The hotel staff spoke excellent English and were friendly. I especially appreciated them letting me e-mail documents to them for printing. If you are traveling on a budget and want to be close or on the Mediterranean, this is a good choice. I would actually rate this hotel about a 3 1/2.
