Hotel Benidorm City Olympia

Stayed here with 5 others early november, staff at desk were brilliant at getting us checked in nice n quick, room was bang on for what we needed and the balcony was an added bonus, bed was lovely and comfy, only gripe was breakfast it was okay for the price but was flat cold, although there is a microwave at hand to warm it up, but like someone said earlier there are loads of places close to eat out, tapas alley was nearby and the food was absolutely delicious, beach is a 5 minute walk and a great place to spend the day chilling in the Spanish sun, we will definitely stay here again.

We are just back from a five nights stay in this hotel. We read the reviews before we went and where a bit scared of what we were going to get but it’s exactly what you pay for. It was a great hotel right in the centre the guys on the front desk were the most helpful people, cleaner were in every morning to clean the rooms, we asked for an extra pillow in the morning and by the time we came back at night it was on the bed waiting for us. It was a basic hotel so if you’re looking for a four or five star hotel you are not going to like this, but if your looking for something that’s right in the centre right beside everything, I would highly recommend

Very clean ,beds so comfy checking in staff were great . Situated in old beniform can be noisy but once the air conditioning is on you can't hear any outside noise . Rooms could do with updating but then I'm sure the prices would rise . We paid £600 through travel republic. Well worth the money . Only thing I missed was no where on site to sunbathe but we knew that b4 we booked . Beach is 3 min walk

Felt compelled to write my first review on the basis of some of the other reviews which I think are quite frankly unfair. We spent 7 nights here in the middle of August as a couple and I don’t have a clue what some of the other reviews are complaining about. The hotel is exactly as advertised. Rooms are fairly basic, they’re clean, beds are comfy, aircon works brilliantly and the location is brilliant. 10 minute walk to the castle, 5 minutes to the centre of the old town & maybe 10 minutes to the start of the Benidorm ‘strip’. The hotel is set along a fairly busy street which are mainly bars and restaurants - no nightclubs. The windows go a long way towards shutting out 90% of the noise from outside and chances are the sound of your air con drowns out the rest. You’ll hear the odd bit of excess noise but it’s Benidorm - what do you expect? Breakfast is a limited assortment of continental & cooked but in my opinion decent value for €6 per person. There is an information sheet in the room which states you need to pay a fully refundable deposit for hiring a kettle, iron, safe etc but I hasten to emphasise this is fully refundable - I personally think rather than blaming the hotel for charging, maybe blame guests from years gone by who have clearly abused the free amenities to the point where the hotel had to intervene and ask for a deposit. Also the hotel will ask for card details/€50 euro damage deposit upon checking in, again, fully refundable and again, blame ****** from years gone by who’ve trashed the place rather than the hotel for feeling compelled to asking for some insurance. If you want 5 & 4 star quality, then dig deep and pay for a 5/4 star hotel. The hotel is one of the better 3 stars I’ve stopped in & thats factoring in paying over the odds for summer months. The staff are great, I’d recommend the hotel but I’d implore you to be realistic before you book. Just remember where you’re going.

Myself and my friend booked a £99 mysterious holiday and got the Olympia hotel, after reading the reviews we were unsure of what to expect. On arrival the staff were so helpful and gave us advice on where was good to eat and what was happening in the surrounding area. The room was spacious, clean and the beds got made daily. The door handle snapped off one morning and when we went to reception to inform them it was fixed within 20 minutes. We were not really in the hotel much but when we were we could not knock it at all. We would return.

Don’t leave your stuff in hotel 400 euro for snapped key in the door fake entertainment no pool air conditioning started leaking robbed by cleaners get charged for everything you supposed to have in a room ex kettle iron no information on it what so ever hotel staff were rude charge you For things you should already have like clean bed sheets
