I stayed here for 5 nights as a solo parent travelling with three children. We booked via easyjet holidays.
1 - arrival was great bus transfer with beni express no issues. Nice welcome from the hotel.
We arrived late though meaning we had missed dinner.
A small sandwich offering would have been a good gesture instead We had to find somewhere to eat as soon as we got there.
Second day was the new years Gala ball. Which was very nice.
The room we were in was on the second floor and it was to noisy from the entertainment so we moved to the 15th floor which was a bit too high and scary with little ones but was quiet.
The entertainment starts quite late 8.45 ish and is all in Spanish so we didn't really get to enjoy that.
The soft play was good and the pool but lacked baby changing facilities and the changing rooms were freezing.
The check out was early 6.45 am and again we didn't have the option offered to us of a packed up breakfast which was disappointing compared to previous hotels.
Overall the food was good but was a bit basic. Roast chicken and chips.
Fish and some veg.
My eldest son mostly eat out.
Some of the staff in the restaurant weren't very friendly or helpful with the baby and made my daughter feel uncomfortable saying things like your beautiful when she went up for food. She's only 8.
Overall the hotel was a good stay but mostly that was the location. I would come to benidorm again but we wouldn't pick this hotel.

Stayed 1406 10th November 4nights. Good view of the croo lit up at night and the island.
Food good not Michelin but we eat well at Breakfast and evening meal.
Staff i found helpful and polite.
Shower was good pressure but we couldn't get constant temperature.
I think thermostats should be fitted as it blasted very hot then cold.
Location ideal for us.
Predominantly Spanish no problem.
We had a coffee machine with capsules.
100% I would stay again.

Review: Disappointing Stay at Benidorm Plaza Hotel
I recently stayed at the Benidorm Plaza Hotel and was quite disappointed with several aspects of my visit. The hotel doesn’t really cater for English guests — most of the entertainment is entirely in Spanish and seems to focus on Spanish visitors only. It would have been nice to have something more inclusive for all nationalities.
The breakfast was very poor and often cold, which was a letdown. On arrival, the reception staff didn’t mention that everyone is required to purchase a swimming hat to use the pool — even men with no hair! This should have been explained upfront.
The evening meal doesn’t start until 8pm, which is far too late if you have children. When I asked if dinner could be served earlier, I was simply told that the Spanish don’t like to eat earlier. Similarly, when I asked why the swimming pool was covered, I was told it was because the Spanish think it’s too cold — again, not very accommodating for other guests.
Overall, if you’re staying here, I’d say it’s fine as a basic place just to get your head down, but don’t expect much else.
