Accommodation details
Eurostars Mediterranea Plaza – 4 Star
A true oasis of peace and quiet in the very nerve centre of one of the liveliest cities on the Mediterranean.
An unbeatable location right in the centre of Alicante and some amazing vistas from the roof-top terrace make the Eurostars Mediterranea Plaza one of the most sought-after establishments in the city. The hotel is close to everything: a stones throw from the Postiguet beach, from the shopping area, from the Barrio (the major night-life district), the yacht marina (starting point of the 2008 and 2011 Volvo Ocean Races) and many other places, such as the Teatro Principal (barely 200 metres away), the Contemporary Art Museum, the Esplanade of Spain (lovely walks in the shade of the palm trees) and the narrow streets of the old part of the city.
Our personal recommendation is for you to start the day with a hearty breakfast served under the arches of the Plaza del Ayuntamiento and end it on the roof-top terrace where you can sit and enjoy the magnificent panoramic vista of the recently renovated Plaza and the Castle of St. Barbara, on top of Mount Banacantil.
