Hotel Maya

Location and service

Location was good for us. Near to tram stop. About 15 minute walk to both beach or old town. Room comfortable.

Could hear noise from adjoining room.

On a highly positive note, the staff were very helpful, hospitable and efficient and the hotel is clearly very well run. Moreover, our room was clean, comfortable and quiet, though perhaps would benefit from minor refurbishment. It should also be noted that the Maya is ideally situated, a 15 minute walk from Alicante's centre in a quiet residential area of the town, served by a highly convenient metro link. Food was generally good. Overall, the Maya offers good value for money and is a comfortable and agreeable option in an excellent location on the periphery of Alicante's beautiful city centre.

Certain parts of the hotel complex, specifically the pool bar area, mini-golf and solarium are in need of refurbishment and renovation. Whilst we used these facilities sparingly during our visit as we chose to focus our activities outside the hotel, extended reliance on, what at peak times appeared cramped and overcapacity amenities, could prove problematic, especially for families with children. Breakfast options were varied and plentiful, if a little mediocre. Disappointingly, the fruit juices appeared to be made from overly saccharine concentrate but the coffee was very good. The addition of cooked vegetarian options at breakfast should be a priority.

Close to attractions.

Very noisy in room until midnight!
