Bottom Line

Located in Benidorm, a package-style tourist destination on Spain’s Costa Blanca, Benilux Park Hotel is a six-minute walk from Playa Poniente, one of the town’s two beaches. This three-pearl, budget-friendly hotel is a multi-storied complex with 216 rooms spread over two wings. Most of the guest rooms here are clean and well-maintained, and there’s an outdoor swimming pool, as well as a children’s pool, playground, and daily kids’ activities. But the Benilux Park skimps on the extras: Basic room amenities such as mini-fridges, safes, and hairdryers come with extra fees, and a small deposit is required for air-conditioning. The daily morning scramble for scarce sun loungers is a source of frustration for some guests, although others find it amusing. For a slightly more upscale option, travelers might want to consider Hotel Magic Fenicia, although rates will be higher.

Benilux Park Hotel

Scene

Mid-range hotel catering to vacationing families, retirees, and revelers

Once a tiny fishing village on Spain’s eastern coast, Benidorm has become a budget holiday destination known for its rowdy nightlife. This is a popular holiday resort for Spaniards and Northern Europeans, and vacationing families make up most of the clientele during the summer months, while before and after the peak season it's retirees. Guests also include young travelers attracted to the beaches and the town’s nightlife, as well as groups attending bachelor and bachelorette parties. The building's exterior is an unattractive multi-storied L-shape structure, with balconies facing the pool area. The public areas are devoid of decoration and generic but well-maintained. The lobby area is spacious, with a large lounge area with palm-tree murals, faux-leather sofas and armchairs, and a small library.

Location

In a quiet neighborhood within walking distance of the beach

Benilux Park Hotel is located in a neighborhood of low-rise apartment buildings in the quieter part of town, away from the noisier scene off Playa Levante. There are many small shops, cafes, and restaurants within the immediate vicinity, and it's a six-minute walk to Poniente Beach and a 10-minute walk to the old town. The municipal market and central shopping district are an 11-minute walk away, and it’s a 15-minute walk to Placa del Castell on the seafront. The heart of the city’s party scene is farther away -- on Avenida Communitat Valencia -- an eight-minute drive from the hotel. Alicante Airport is a 50-minute drive away.

Rooms

Clean and well-maintained rooms, but basic amenities come with fees

The 216 guest rooms at Benilux Park Hotel are clean and well-sized, although not overly spacious. The Family Rooms can feel cramped, with the double bed and sofa bed taking up most of the floor area. Decor is basic: white walls, off-white tile floors, and simple furniture, with black and white patterned bedspreads and striped curtains the only decorative flourishes. Beige-tone tile bathrooms have marble sink tops, small shower stalls, and bidets. The Semi-Accessible Rooms have wide sliding doors opening onto balconies, and instead of self-contained bathrooms feature exterior sinks, separate toilets, and shower rooms set off from the main room only by shower curtains -- often causing the room to flood as a result.

All rooms have balconies overlooking the swimming pool, flat-screen TVs with satellite channels, and air-conditioning -- but guests must pay a small deposit to use it, which is reimbursed at the end of the stay. Wi-Fi is unavailable in the rooms, and guests have complained about the limited number of electrical sockets. Though the guest rooms are clean and maintained to a high standard, some on the top floor have yet to be renovated. They have dated bathrooms, a musty smell, and broken sockets. Soundproofing between rooms could be better.
