Map & location
Alicante City, Spain
NH Alicante sits in a calm residential pocket south of Alicante’s centre, giving you a quieter base but keeping the sights within easy reach. A bus stop just 200m away links you to the old town, the Explanada de España promenade and the marina, or you can grab an inexpensive taxi to Postiguet Beach for a couple of hours by the sea.
You’re close enough to enjoy Alicante’s galleries, tapas bars and late-night buzz in El Barrio, but far enough back to sleep soundly when you return. Santa Bárbara Castle crowns the skyline to the north, while the port and cruise terminal are just over 2km away – handy if you’re pairing a city break with a sailing.
- Approx. transfer time from airport 15–20 minutes by road (traffic dependent)
Facilities
Pool & outdoors
Head up to the rooftop and you’ll find a compact outdoor pool surrounded by a sun terrace and city views – a real bonus for a central-style hotel. It’s just the right size for a refreshing dip after a morning exploring the castle or shopping in town, with loungers for topping up the tan.
Alicante’s main stretch of sand, Postiguet Beach, sits roughly 2.8km away. It’s easily reached by bus or taxi and offers a wide, gently shelving shoreline, beach bars and views up to the old fortress on the hill.
