Worth booking if you want a 5-star base in central Alicante with an excellent location score and a helpful team. If street noise bothers you or you mainly want value, our Best Value pick scores the same 9.0 for far less.

This is a 5-star hotel aimed at travellers who want comfort and a central address more than the lowest bill. Couples on a city break and visitors who plan to explore the old town on foot will get the most from it.
There is a gym, a restaurant and a terrace on the facilities list, which helps if you like to stay active or eat in.
Light sleepers should read the reviews carefully. Some guests find the soundproofing works, others hear street traffic and corridor noise. Budget travellers will also find the rate well above the city median.
Location and getting around
You will find it at Calle Rafael Altamira 19, 03002 Alicante. Its location score is 9.8, the highest figure on this page.
The Concatedral de San Nicolás is about 0.1 km away, roughly a minute on foot. Santa Bàrbara Castle is about 0.5 km, around 6 minutes, and the Archaeological Museum of Alicante is about 1.1 km, close to 14 minutes. These are straight-line estimates, so allow extra time for real streets and any climbs.
Guests describe the setting as close to the beach, the old town and public transport. We have not checked specific routes, so look up connections for your plans.
What guests say
The hotel scores 9.0 out of 10 from 2,142 reviews, and it ranked 2nd of 36 eligible properties in the provider sample.
Location gets the most praise, followed by the staff. Guests call the team friendly and professional, and mention help with luggage and parking.
Noise is the recurring concern. Insulation is fine for some guests, while others report hearing traffic outside and noise in the hallways.
Price and how it compares with our other picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026, for 2 adults in one room, was €162 per night. That is about 36% above the sample median of €119.40. Treat it as a guide and check today's price for your dates.
Our Best Value pick, B&B HOTEL Alicante Centro, is a 3-star hotel with the same 9.0 score at €89.10 per night. Our Budget pick, La Lonja, is a 2-star hotel scoring 8.3 at €72.45.
So the extra €73 or so a night over B&B HOTEL buys you five stars, a gym, a restaurant and a terrace, not a higher guest score. Breakfast options listed include continental, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and buffet, but whether breakfast is in your rate is not confirmed.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 39 hotels in Alicante. Among the eligible upscale options, this one had the strongest mix of high score and number of reviews, which is why it took the Luxury slot.
Its 9.8 location score and position near the cathedral and the castle sealed it.
Before you book

Check whether breakfast is included and what parking costs, since guests mention parking help but no price is confirmed. Confirm gym and restaurant opening times for your dates.
