Benidorm Hotels

Best Places to Stay in Benidorm

When it comes to holidays, Benidorm has three main areas to choose from: the lively beachfronts of Poniente and Levante, and the charming Old Town that lies nestled between them. Levante Beach is the more vibrant of the two, stretching almost 2 km from Punta Pinet to Punta Canfali, with a south-facing promenade lined with countless bars and restaurants. If you’re after a quieter vibe, Poniente Beach is slightly longer and boasts a beautiful, modern promenade that winds along the cliffs and waves. And with the Old Town sitting perfectly between the two, you’re right in the hub of all the action.

Where to stay to be near the popular attractions

For easy access to Benidorm’s spectacular beaches and the conveniences of modern city life, the Old Town is the ideal spot. With its quaint cobbled streets and picturesque whitewashed houses, it offers a different side of Benidorm. You’ll also find hidden gems like the sheltered cove of Mal Pas and the stunning viewpoint known as the Balcón del Mediterráneo. Once a castle site, this viewpoint gives you a breathtaking panorama of the aquamarine ocean and stunning coastline. Plus, with a hotel in the Old Town, you’re just a 20-minute stroll from the bustling nightlife area behind Levante Beach.

Where to Stay with Your Family in Benidorm

If you’re holidaying with the family, the eastern end of Levante Beach is a fantastic choice. You’ll have miles of golden sandy beach practically at your doorstep, and the secluded, rocky coves of Cala Tio Ximo and Cala Almadraba are also just a short walk away. If your older kids are up for a bit of adventure, there’s a hike up to the Creu de Benidorm that takes you to 438 metres above sea level, rewarding you with breathtaking views. Not to mention, Aqualandia water park and Mundomar zoo are only a quick five-minute drive or a half-hour walk away—both are sure to keep the whole family entertained. For family-friendly accommodations, the Port Benidorm Hotel & Spa offers spacious rooms with lovely sea views.

Party and Nightlife in Benidorm

Benidorm is well-known for its buzzing nightlife, and for good reason! If you're wondering where the action kicks off, look no further than "English Square," right where Av. de Mallorca meets Calle Gerona. This is the spot where nights out usually begin, featuring popular spots like Jokers, Hippodrome, and Jail Rock Bar.

When you’re ready to keep the night going, just hop in a taxi for a quick 5-minute ride to Av. de la Comunitat Valenciana, which is home to some of the city's liveliest clubs. The best part? They’re slightly out of town, which means the DJs can keep the music pumping until the early hours—often until 6 or 7 in the morning!

Some big-name venues worth checking out include Penelope, which has six bars and a massive chillout terrace for when you want to take a break. Then there’s KU, an absolute gem that can hold a whopping 5,000 party-goers and even has its own swimming pool!

So, whether you're in the mood to dance the night away or just enjoy a few drinks with friends, Benidorm has everything you need for a fantastic night out.
