Updated 17 September 2026 · 221 real hotels
Benidorm splits naturally into three zones: the lively Levante Beach strip for classic sun-and-nightlife seekers, the compact Old Town (Casco Antiguo) for character and local dining, and the quieter Rincón de Loix for families wanting a calmer pace. Your ideal base depends on whether you prioritize beach access, atmosphere, or budget.

Benidorm sits on the Costa Blanca in the province of Alicante, flanked by two long sandy bays separated by a rocky headland topped by the Old Town. What looks from a distance like a wall of high-rise towers turns out, at street level, to be a genuinely walkable resort with a surprisingly dense concentration of restaurants, tapas bars, and beachfront promenades. The Mediterranean climate means the sun is reliable from April through October, and the two main beaches, Levante and Poniente, stay clean and well-serviced throughout the season.
The city has reinvented itself over the decades without losing its core appeal: value, sun, and a crowd that ranges from British package tourists to Spanish families and a growing number of younger visitors drawn by the nightlife scene around the Rincon de Loix area. Charlize, RoomForNight's travel host, notes that first-timers often underestimate how compact Benidorm is. Walking between the Old Town, Levante Beach, and the main shopping streets takes under twenty minutes, which makes almost any central neighborhood a reasonable base.
Which area to stay in Benidorm?
- Old Town (Casco Antiguo): Best for couples and independent travelers who want atmosphere over beach-front convenience. Narrow streets, tapas bars, the iconic Balcón del Mediterráneo viewpoint, and a genuinely local feel after the day-trippers leave. Hotels here tend to be smaller and more personal.
- Levante Beach: The heartbeat of classic Benidorm. The long promenade is lined with hotels, beach bars, and restaurants. Ideal for anyone who wants to step out of their hotel and be on the sand within two minutes. Busier and noisier, especially in peak summer.
- Poniente Beach: Slightly calmer than Levante and popular with Spanish families and older visitors. The beach is just as long but the surrounding streets are less congested. A good choice if you want the sea without the loudest nightlife.
- Rincón de Loix: The northeastern tip of the resort, home to larger four- and five-star properties, waterparks, and a more resort-style atmosphere. Further from the Old Town but well connected by bus. Suits families and guests who prefer a self-contained hotel environment.
- City Centre (around Avenida de Mediterráneo): The commercial spine of Benidorm. Good transport links, proximity to shops and restaurants, and a mix of three-star hotels at competitive prices. Practical rather than picturesque, but very convenient.
Good to know
- Book early for July and August: Benidorm is one of the most visited resort cities in Europe. Peak summer availability drops fast and prices climb sharply. Booking two to three months ahead for those months is a minimum; four to six months ahead for the best-value rooms.
- Use the local ALSA buses: Benidorm has a reliable urban bus network and a direct tram line (TRAM Metropolitano d'Alacant) connecting it to Alicante city and the airport. A single fare is inexpensive and the tram runs frequently, making car rental unnecessary for most stays.
- Consider shoulder season (April, May, September, October): Temperatures are warm enough to swim, the beaches are far less crowded, and hotel rates drop noticeably compared to July and August. April and October in particular offer excellent value and comfortable walking temperatures.
- Verify what your rate includes: Benidorm has a large all-inclusive hotel market. If your chosen hotel offers all-inclusive, compare it carefully against room-only rates plus realistic dining costs, especially if you plan to eat out regularly at local restaurants rather than staying in the hotel.
- Pack for the evenings: Even in summer, the sea breeze on the promenade after sunset can be cool. A light layer is useful. In spring and autumn, evenings can drop to 15-17°C, so a jacket is worth having.
What to know about hotels in Benidorm?
What is the best area to stay in Benidorm for first-timers?+
The Old Town or the Levante Beach area are the most practical bases for a first visit. The Old Town gives you character, good dining, and the famous panoramic viewpoint, while Levante Beach puts you directly on the longest and most animated stretch of sand. Both are walkable from the city centre and well served by local buses.
How do I get from Alicante Airport to Benidorm?+
The most comfortable public option is the TRAM Metropolitano d'Alacant, which connects Alicante city centre to Benidorm in roughly one hour. You first take the C1 Cercanías train from the airport to Alicante central station, then transfer to the TRAM L1 line toward Denia. Direct coach services operated by ALSA also run between the airport and Benidorm, and the journey by taxi or private transfer takes around 45 to 55 minutes depending on traffic.
What is the best time of year to visit Benidorm?+
June through September offers guaranteed sunshine and warm sea temperatures, but the resort is at its most crowded and expensive in July and August. May and October are widely considered the sweet spot: reliably warm, far fewer crowds, and hotel rates that are noticeably lower than peak summer. Winter is mild by northern European standards but many tourist-facing businesses reduce their hours or close.
What is the average cost of a hotel in Benidorm?+
Based on current availability on RoomForNight, three-star hotels in Benidorm range from around 90 euros per night at well-reviewed properties in the Old Town to around 170 euros per night on the Levante Beach strip. A four-star superior property in the Rincón de Loix area is listed at 223 euros per night. Rates rise significantly in July and August and fall in spring and autumn.
Is Benidorm suitable for families with children?+
Yes, particularly the Rincón de Loix area and the Poniente Beach side, which tend to be quieter than the Levante strip. Benidorm has several waterparks within easy reach, the beaches are well monitored, and the resort infrastructure (restaurants, pharmacies, supermarkets) is very family-friendly. The loudest nightlife is concentrated in specific streets, so families who avoid those zones generally find the resort comfortable.
