Excellent hotel and friendly efficient staff. Casually mentioned to one of the restaurant staff that it was my birthday the following day and when we arrived back the next day found a card and cake waiting for us. Small things but makes a big difference.

Alicante is nice and easy city to get around. If you're not a beach bum you would still enjoy a long weekend there with its multitude of fine restaurants and bars to choose from.

Lovely place to visit. Highly recommend a trip up to the castle - I walked up although there is lift access. Also walking along the coast of San Juan Playa. Get the C-6 bus from the airport in to centre 3.85euro
