While detailed outlets can vary, Eurostars Portico Alicante typically offers a smart, contemporary breakfast room where you can start the day with a buffet spread of hot and cold dishes, pastries, fruit and fresh coffee.

As the sun dips, make your way to the rooftop terrace for a relaxed drink with views over the Old Town’s rooftops and towards the sea – an atmospheric spot for a pre-dinner aperitif.

Being in the heart of the city, you’re also just a few steps away from traditional tapas bars, wine bars and restaurants in El Barrio and around the marina, perfect for grazing your way through local rice dishes, seafood and pintxos on a different terrace each evening.

Eurostars Portico Alicante does not feature a traditional swimming pool, which is typical for compact, historic-city hotels. Instead, the standout outdoor space is the stylish rooftop terrace where you can relax on loungers or comfortable seating while admiring views across Alicante’s skyline.

When you’re ready for a swim, head to the sandy city beach just 280m away. Playa del Postiguet offers gently shelving waters, sunbeds and parasols for hire, beach cafés and easy access to the promenade – ideal for an impromptu dip between sightseeing sessions.

This is a city boutique property, so facilities are focused on comfort and convenience rather than large-scale resort amenities. Typical facilities and services may include:

• Panoramic rooftop terrace with seating
• Lobby lounge area
• 24-hour reception and concierge-style assistance
• Lift serving all main floors
• Free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel

From the hotel you can easily access Alicante’s seafront jogging paths, water sports providers on the beach, and a wealth of cultural attractions – from galleries and museums to the castle and harbour-side events.
