AC hotels by Marriott Hotels in Alicante

We choose this hotel because the location and we were not wrong. Located just besides the port and a few minutes away from the beach and the “Passeig Esplanada d’Espanya” were you can find lost of local restaurants. The room was ok with a balcony and wonderful view of the port.

In Europe, there are 24 square-foot rooms that are oversized, and the service is good and clean. Because I do n’t like European meals, I cook with electric cups, but 1.5 yuan of freshly ground coffee is quite good. Museum, Barbara Castle, beach, yacht marina , Sailing Wharf, Acampo hypermarket are all nearby, and there are T1 ～ T4 subway transfer stations at the door, 23, 2 and C6 to the airport and train station bus station. Apart from Mela, it is the most beautiful in Alicante, but it is too expensive. I personally think that Maya is the most ideal and convenient.

There’s a clean and smart reception area, but the reception staff weren’t very welcoming, we arrived tired and late after a delayed flight and a smile and nice greeting would have made us feel more welcome. The rooms are very spacious with a big bed which we found very comfortable. However the room lacks any facilities whatsoever and way below what we expect for a 4 star hotel. We were shocked on waking the first morning to find there are no tea and coffee facilities?! Also no iron or ironing board. Plus only one arm chair was provided even though there is ample space, so we both couldn’t sit down and relax in the room. The noise from other rooms and the street on the Friday night was horrendous, even on the 5th floor. We didn’t sleep at all. We suspect this is because weekends are much busier, the breakfast room on the Saturday morning was absolutely packed. The breakfast itself was very good for 9 euros we think it’s worth it, they offer a good selection of gluten free items (I have an allergy). But as I mention above, Saturday morning breakfast wasn’t enjoyable due to how busy it was. In fact the waitress ushered us off the table as soon as we finished our last bite (I still had some tea left to drink!) as she said there was a queue to get in. In summary, a mixed stay but too many negatives and we wouldn’t stay again.

I spent 5 nights here in the beginning of January 2023. For people with healthy legs, the hotel is a walking distance away from the Alicante city centre. The location is a little bit hidden down a hill; be prepared to go down and up some stairs during your stay. Otherwise the location was not that awkward in my opinion as some people have commented. Lovely sea views, the sunrises and sunsets were amazing. Very importantly, don't trust Google Maps GPS too much when you approach the hotel from the city centre via the avenue Villajoyosa! At least for me Maps placed the hotel somewhere inside the big mountain nearby, which was obviously incorrect. So if Maps does the same to you, keep walking, there will be hotel signs further the Villajoyosa avenue. The hotel was pretty good for a 3 star hotel, a tad luxurious even. It had everything needed. Gym, tennis court, pool (not open in the Winter months), restaurant, 24 h reception. Very helpful staff and good cleaning. No coffee/tea making facilities or a fridge inside the rooms, but you can request them for free from the reception. Breakfast was okay, nothing special, loved the views in the cafeteria though! There were some issues with my room, but the staff promptly took action and changed my room from a standard to a superior one. The standard room was a bit chilly, and in the superior room you could hear people's conversations in other rooms. But no biggie, I could sleep just fine. All in all, it was a very good stay for a 3 star hotel! I didn't expect too much and was pleasantly surprised.

So central walked everywhere, airport taxi only 20 euro. Rooms were so nice and cold after being out in the heat all day! Twin beds even tho asked for double so not great for a romantic getaway, Breakfast was really disappointing no sausages weird eggs no Irish/English breakfasts, ended up having toast everyday. Besides breakfast and beds it was the perfect place to stay when your going to be out and about, definitely coming back

Yes, a total of five rooms were set, one of which was free for an extra bed for the little ones. There is an additional charge for parking, and there is a very small swimming pool on the roof. The foreigner is watching the sun very seriously.

We had the worst meal we have ever had in Spain last night. My husband had fish. No idea what it was but it looked and tasted disgusting. I had pork with potaotes which tuned out to be tiny Duchess potatoes probably frozen and reheated. We did register our views and were given a discount of €10 which was an unasked for token but we would have preferred a decent meal. On arrival at 20.15 we were told they had cancelled our reservation as were late. We did not know there was a set arrival time. The receptionist said he had rung me 3 times but I had no missed calls on my phone. We were given a room. An awful experience and we will not be staying here again.

We arrived very late in the night. The hotel entrance was inviting and the lobby was clean and pretty decent. The hotel check-in staff was very friendly and helpful. She checked us in and even assisted us with getting a hot meal despite how late it was. We then proceeded to find our room. The first thing we noticed was that the hallway on the floor was poorly lit, but we were tired so we jut cheked for our room and went it. On entering the room, it smelt unpleasant. There was a smell of old dust. We then went inside the bathroom. That was an awful experience. The toilet had dried urination stains, the shower vent was filled with dust and the bathroom wasn't fresh. We then tried to turn on the television and it wouldnt work. We called the front desk and the check-in staff offered to come to our room. She broguth a new remote to asisst with the television. We complained about the room and asked if we could be moved. She said the room we got was for disabled persons and hadnt been used in a while ( which was obvious) but it also wasnt clean. She offered to try and get us into a new room the next day for which we were grateful. We tried to endure but had trouble sleeping because the air conditioner was filled with dust. We eventually fell asleep and by the net morning I couldnt breathe. My nose was stuffy and I felt like i was choking on dust. We decided to just check out early and find another place as at this point we just had enough. We checked out and were told that we would receive a refund for the remaining nights we did not stay. We booked for 3 nights and stayed for 1. A week after we checked out , we receievd an email stating that they will not refund the nights that we did not stay without valid explanation. Highly disappointing! Defintiely won't go back.

In the small street, there is no hotel door, it is not convenient to drive, the garage is very small, the service is average
