Hotel Almirante

Hotel was very clean, rooms were modern with a large balcony area. The pool was a fabulous addition to the hotel, the two girls at the pool bar were very polite and friendly. The call button service was such a treat. Pool bar food was lovely. We didn't rate the restaurant but I know it is very popular with lots of people. We preferred going into Alicante for dinner in the evenings. Breakfast was good, not a huge selection but everything on offer was fresh. In terms of location, the hotel is in San Juan. Located right across the road from a 7km stretch of beach which locals say is the nicest beach in Alicante. The hotel is less than a 5 minute walk from the 'Costa Blanca' tram stop. The tram goes into Alicante centre & also goes out as far as Benidorm if you wanted a day trip there. It's €1.45 per trip which is great if you want to go in to the city centre during the day and again in the evening for dinner. It takes about 20 minutes to get from the hotel to the centre by tram. We loved how quiet San Juan was and liked having the option to go into Alicante centre. Just note that there isn't a huge selection of restaurants in San Juan, most of which were very quiet when we had a wander around in the evening (could be time of year). We preferred the buzz of Alicante in the evening. We would definitely stay in the Almirante again!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this lovely boutique hotel, and I can't recommend it enough. The hotel has a charming, stylish ambience that immediately makes you feel at home. The bedrooms are bright, airy, and incredibly clean, creating a relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. The facilities are top-notch, and everything is well-maintained. Breakfast at the hotel is excellent, with a great variety of options that are fresh and delicious. The hotel café is also of a very high standard, perfect for a casual bite or a relaxing coffee. The pool area is stunning, offering a serene spot to unwind. The location is fantastic—just steps from the beach and surrounded by a wide selection of excellent restaurants. Plus, the tram stop is very close, making it easy to explore the area. All in all, it’s a wonderful place to stay, and I’d definitely return!

The hotel was better than expected. Very stylish interior and decor. The staff were so lovely and genuine. The room was lovely with a seaside holiday vibe. The hotel has all the facilities you could want without it feeling like a resort. food was delicious in the restaurant in the hotel. For me the winner was the chocolate fondant dessert with ice cream! The hotel is across the road from the beach which is fantastic. The pool area was so nice although we didn't actually use it due to the weather but was nice to have the option. I got a gorgeous hot stone massage which was a lovely treat. I was really impressed with the hotel and have recommended it to loads of friends and family. Having the tram to go into the centre of Alicante was very handy as you can get the best of both worlds. We wanted a quieter beach holiday but also have a day of shopping in the city. Perfect hotel, perfect holiday. Loved my experience here. The hotel feels more than a 3 star hotel. It is of a very high standard. I felt it was a lovely boutique hotel.

Very well designed, looking more of 5 star hotel on first sight. Staff very supportive even with my wife's silly questions/ requests. Location and facilities are spot on, area is quiet and easy to reach to all amenities around. Beach towels available with deposit only.

The hotel was only three stories in height, bijou and cosy, but a lovely feel. The inside/outside dining area was a relaxing experience. The pool area was never uncomfortably busy. We used the gym, which was basic but had all we wanted, ie weights and a treadmill. The short walk to the beach and extensive promenade of San Juan, was great for walking and exploring. Just a few minutes walk from the hotel is the tram, both to Alicante and further afield in the opposite direction, Benidorm- just 1.40 Euros, each way! The whole area of small local cafes, eateries were very cheap and there was a large supermarket close by. The trams get very busy around 6pm, so be prepared for them to sail past and wait for another. This is not due to tourism as there were many locals on these trams. Every evening walking doen the prom are all the locals, the beach is full of pilates classes, personal trainers, group classes and more. Friday night, watching the Spanish World go by was great.
