We were amazed by the total impression; very friendly and professional staff, beautiful and convenient room, the atmosphere in the garden and the delicious food! Highly recommend Hotel Areca.

Comfortable hotel with friendly and helpful staff.
Both the breakfast and evening meals were very good.
While close to the airport we hardly noticed noise from the planes.
24 hour reception was a bonus, as our flight landed in Alicanti after midnight. Rooms were spotless, breakfast was awesome and staff went out of their way to help.

Very clean and friendly staff. Good location and close to the airport which is what we were looking for.
We loved this hotel! The Spa was so nice! They had a garden and it was so nice and peaceful. The breakfast was also so delicious and it cost like 12 or 14 bucks. But the best thing near there was this pizza place a 2 min walk away and it was the BEST PIZZA WE HAVE EVER HAD! And we have been to Italy!
A great place to stay minutes from Alicante airport but with no noise at all! Lovely garden for drinks and canapes, super comfortable beds and soacious rooms as well as a nice lounge area and cafe/restaurant.
Very good location, close to the airport and very clean. The room was comfortable and well-maintained. The only thing that surprised me was that bottled water (even still water) was not complimentary and had to be paid for – it would have been a nice touch to include at least one bottle per guest.
