“With a location practically on the runway of Alicante Airport, this hotel smartly caters to business needs. The full-service spa is more than a mere amenity; it's a genuine highlight, especially with complimentary access. Carabí, the in-house restaurant, promises authentic Mediterranean flavors, though reports of inconsistent service give pause.”

Convenient Airport Hotel

convenient locationfriendly staffcomfortable roominadequate air conditioning
The location was convenient for access to the airport. I found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. My room was both lovely and comfortable. A great shuttle service to the airport was AVAILABLE.
The room was too warm. I had issues regulating the temperature. The air conditioning system seemed to only offer heating . This made for a somewhat uncomfortable night.
