“Really great place”

Great in all respects

“Very comfortable and welcoming”

Lovely setting overlooking San Juan beach. Staff were very pleasant and helpful.

“Alicante's only 5 star hotel”

Hotel was as expected from Expedia's website. Excellent evening meal well presented and delicious. Breakfast buffet - Lovely freshly squeezed cold orange juice, coffee good (not all breakfast coffee is!)Had a continental breakfast but the English looked Ok Not a lot around the hotel a supermercado and a basic cafe 2 minutes outside the hotel Beach beautiful - the view from the hotel is similar to being on board ship lovely!

“fabulous seaviews but dated decor”

Sidi Hotel has a priviledged location as a beach resort with direct access to the beach. The seaview from the pool is great and we loved the seaview from our little room terrace (all rooms have seaview). Breakfast was a delicious buffett in a lovely terrace and staff were friendly. The gym albeit small was perfectly funtional .It was nice to also have the option of an indoor pool as the outdoor one was quite small. The main disappointment was the room decor which was dated and tired. Probably when the hotel first open its doors the rooms had a classic and sumptuous air however after years of wear and tear really needs updating. Rooms definately not five stars hotel, possibly four. For a young childless couple we would have preferred something a bit more fresh and contemporaneous looking. In addition to the price paid, we were surprised by all of the extras that were not included (which we expected a five stars hotel to include in the price) like towel service, car park, use of the safe. All in all, I enjoyed a few days of relaxation, it was a quiet athmosphere (mainly over 50's) and a few families with young children and loved the view. If you can bear the dated decor for a great view, great beach and quiet athmospehre then this hotel is the one.

“ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT”

I WAS REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO A 5 STAR EXPERIENCE AND THE HOTEL SOUNDED REALLY NICE FROM WHAT I COULD SEE.DONT GET ME WRONG THE POSITION IS 5 STAR AND THE GROUNDS ARE LOVELY.NOT A GREAT DEAL TO DO IN THE AREA .BEACHES GREAT.ENTERTAINMENT NON EXISTANT NOT EVEN THE PIANO PLAYING.FRIENDLIEST MEMBER OF STAFF, MANAGER AT THE POOL BAR.MADE YOU WELCOME.

“Not a 5 star hotel.”

The room was quite basic more 3 star+ or 4 star. Hotel facilities were good. Good pool, good restaurant, Nice bar. The hotel is in a very quiet area. Very convenient to the beach.

“Not impressed”

staff not very friendly, beds hard, breakfast not up to much, very dated, good 4 star at best.

“couple stars too many”

I was told that Sidi San Juan is definitely the best hotel in the area, and the only 5-star one. Well, this may well be true but it does not make the hotel good. It is quite run down and in urgent need of a full-scale renovation. My sense is that this pending closing of the property weighs on its staff moral as they do not much care at best... The access to the beach and the beach itself are very good - the highlight of my stay there. The hotel is located about 20-min walk from the more central area of town where most restaurants and nightlife is concentrated. I quite enjoyed walking back anf forth along the sea shore but some people may find this inconvenient.
