Hotel Benidorm East by Pierre & Vacances

Just spent 3 night here with friends, great hotel. Rooms were great, spacious and clean. Hotel had a great vibe, pool was brilliant. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good and lots of options to suit everyone. It's up the hill but the hotel have a free bus that takes you down to the beach and back which is brilliant if you don't fancy walking. Would definitely recommend staying here.

No air con, The rooms were saunas! There is rule where you can’t set air con to less than 27 degrees in common areas however this should not apply to private rooms, but they did and would not allow us to change it. Apart from that was ok, decent pool.

It was a really good hotel for the price we paid. We stayed for 5 nights at beginning of May we booked breakfast included. The breakfast had lots to choose from such as pastries, fruits, cooked breakfasts etc. The rooms were clean and had lots of space and had a mini fridge which was great, however, the ensuite bathroom was quite small. When using the toilet we had to sit sideways were only 5’5. But other than that the room was all good. The cleaners were lovely, they gave extra towels and loo roll when we didn’t want the room cleaning (we were sleeping). The outside area was good, lots of sun beds, a good sized pool which was freezing however, probably needed the sun a bit more to warm it up. There was a bar there which had great cocktails and beers and even did food! There was some entertainment, we did not attend any so cannot comment on how it was. There were also a few vending machines in the hotel which had drinks and snacks in. The area around the hotel was good, there was a supermarket about 2-4 min walk down from hotel with an ATM. When we came we had seen reviews about the hill to walk to hotel, this did frighten us a bit however, the hill was not as bad as some reviews made out… although it does get tiring it is not too bad as it’s only short, maybe wouldn’t be suitable some though understandably. But also there are two ways to enter hotel, both have hills but one is a lot less steeper. The strip is about a 10-15 minute walk from hotel and beach is about a 20 minute walk. There is a free bus to the beach from the hotel which comes frequently and is displayed in the hotel lifts for times they come. Overall, really good value for money, in a good area if you don’t mind walking a bit extra, staff are friendly and rooms nice.
