What guests think
Travellers describe Pensión Alicante San Nicolás as a clean, budget-friendly base in Alicante’s old town, with a superb central location near the beach, cathedral, restaurants and transport, but note lively street noise at night and stairs with no elevator.
Rooms are basic but comfortable; some are small while others have balconies, kettles and access to a shared kitchenette or fridge. Guests consistently praise the friendly, helpful owner and clear pre-arrival communication, though reception hours can be limited. Breakfast is not on-site; vouchers or nearby cafés offer simple options. A good choice if you want a simple base and don’t mind potential noise.

Accueil sympathique avec la patronne qui parle français. Chambre confortable. Attention. Située au 1 er étage et pas d'ascenseur si vous êtes à mobilité réduite. Petit déjeuner disponible dans un établissement à proximité.

This place is amazing. Stayed with my wife and 7yo child. Great location - right behind the big church, so very easy to find. In the heart of downtown. Close to the beach and the castle. Close to food, museums, etc. Easy walk to the metro so you can get to other cities. Also close to the airport bus line too. You walk into a huge, clean building. Up one flight of stairs. You get three keys - one for building, one for hotel, and one for room. You can tell they put A LOT of detail into making the hotel and nice and tasteful as possible. They have coffee/tea, mini fridge, nice decor, nice accents, etc. They also have a community fridge/freezer. They even have beach toys and towels, books, universal chargers, etc. The lady was very thoughtful with telling us where to go to see certain things. She marked out on maps where some very cool things were. We stayed in a lot of hotels on this trip, and this is one we would DEFINITELY stay in again. Staying here made me feel like an Alicante local to be honest! Thank you!

Myself and my partner stayed in the D3 room that included a en-suite and nice balcony. We had such a wonderful time in Alicante, and that's due in part to such a nice stay here. Caroline and crew were very accommodating, and provided incredibly useful information on travel from the airport, to the hotel prior to our arrival. It helped us have a stress free time. The addition of baggage storage and amenities including shared storage with the choice to use items left by previous guests, and the option to do the same, was greatly appreciated! We would greatly recommend a stay here if you want to be right in the town, and a comfy cozy place to sleep.

Min veninde og jeg havde et dejligt ophold. Vores ferie var uden for højsæsonen, så vi oplevede ingen udfordringer med larm fra gaden. Beliggenheden er helt fantastisk. Værtinden var sød og meget informativ. Der var mulighed for at låne gratis badehåndklæder til strandbesøg, hvilket var positivt for os.

A comfortable room in a great location right next to the cathedral in heart of the old town. We got the C6 bus from the airport and from the stop just by the casino the accommodation was just a few mins walk. This is a basic Pensión rather than a hotel and our room, with bathroom, was clean and comfortable and the communal kitchen area was spotless and very handy. The only thing to be aware of is the fact that to get up to our room there were 44 steps which, with heavy luggage, will be too much for some!! Overall a very good stay and we enjoyed our stay in Alicante too :0)

Great location. Friendly reception, though very limited hours. But communication via e-mail worked well. Was also able to leave my bag at reception until my departure flight. The room is very basic and the bed felt shorter and smaller than a standard 90x200cm single. The ventilation was a bit loud even though it did not help with the stuffy air much. The room was perfectly fine for a weekend getaway. I do not recommend booking breakfast, as there is no breakfast available in the hotel and you only get a coupon for a café which is 5 mins walk away and only includes a croissant and a cup of coffee or tea (and no English speaking service at café). I recommend looking for a small place called "the garden" which offers the same "breakfast" for 3€ or a full English Breakfast for 7€ (which is what I did my second day)

I did not get the breakfast. The room was lovely. Bed and pillows very comfortable. Everything, from the stairwell to bathroom and corners in the room, were clean. : ) Service fantastic and friendly. Location is excellent. Because the location is a block away from great restaurants and walking districts, it was a bit noisy for me during the night. I am whiny about noise, so it might not bother you.

The place was very central, very clean and very comfortable. Caroline could not have been more helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a central location. I don’t normally do shared bathroom but this was spotless and, whilst staff on premises, was kept perfect. Only shared between two rooms, each with a key so I was happy out with this.

We had a great stay at San Nicolas! The room was simple and charming, it even had a small balcony! The room was always nice and cool in the summer heat, and the floor had a fridge where you could keep some food. We did have an issue with the check-in though! It seems we were supposed to check-in beforehand by entering passport details, but we had never recieved that information on e-mail. I don’t know if it is an issue woth booking through hotels.com. Something to check maybe? The woman in the reception was very kind about it though, and checked us in there herself. All in all a great stay! I will recommend and stay here again if I ever come back to Alicante.

Uppskattade att det fanns täcke i sängen istället för filt eller lakan, som andra boenden i Spanien brukar tillhandahålla. Personalen var trevlig och hjälpsam. Rekomenderar för den som vill bo centralt och nära stranden.

The room was nice, shower and bathroom excellent, be aware, it is right in the middle of teh old town and at weekends the noise doesn't subside till around 3 am. The location however is brilliant if you want to be right amongst it. Breakfast is at a café a few metres away, orange juice, coffee or tea with a pastry or Tostada, basically toast with ham or cheese on. Very nice though.

Frokosten var god, men litt minus at det ikke var påfyll av kaffe/juice. Billigere å spise frokost på en av de hyggelige kafeene i nærområdet.

This is NOT a hotel - it is a "pension" which means there is no staff on premises (even though there's a sign that says there is) - clean, spacious room and bathroom. Great location, easy to go anywhere from the location. A little noisy but overall i liked it - jusy didn’t have any staff available.

The place was very central, very clean and very comfortable. Caroline could not have been more helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a central location. I don’t normally do shared bathroom but this was spotless and, whilst staff on premises, was kept perfect. Only shared between two rooms, each with a key so I was happy out with this.

I got what I paid for. The main thing is the location - right next to the beach. A cheap stay in a central location.

This place is amazing. Stayed with my wife and 7yo child. Great location - right behind the big church, so very easy to find. In the heart of downtown. Close to the beach and the castle. Close to food, museums, etc. Easy walk to the metro so you can get to other cities. Also close to the airport bus line too. You walk into a huge, clean building. Up one flight of stairs. You get three keys - one for building, one for hotel, and one for room. You can tell they put A LOT of detail into making the hotel and nice and tasteful as possible. They have coffee/tea, mini fridge, nice decor, nice accents, etc. They also have a community fridge/freezer. They even have beach toys and towels, books, universal chargers, etc. The lady was very thoughtful with telling us where to go to see certain things. She marked out on maps where some very cool things were. We stayed in a lot of hotels on this trip, and this is one we would DEFINITELY stay in again. Staying here made me feel like an Alicante local to be honest! Thank you!

I did not get the breakfast. The room was lovely. Bed and pillows very comfortable. Everything, from the stairwell to bathroom and corners in the room, were clean. : ) Service fantastic and friendly. Location is excellent. Because the location is a block away from great restaurants and walking districts, it was a bit noisy for me during the night. I am whiny about noise, so it might not bother you.

Sentralt, fint og rent. Personalet tilgjengelig i WhatsApp utenom åpningstiden i resepsjonen. Minus at frokosten ikke er på hotellet. Det var det ikke opplyst om. Frokosten var god, men litt minus at det ikke var påfyll av kaffe/juice. Billigere å spise frokost på en av de hyggelige kafeene i nærområdet.

Accueil sympathique avec la patronne qui parle français. Chambre confortable. Attention. Située au 1 er étage et pas d'ascenseur si vous êtes à mobilité réduite. Petit déjeuner disponible dans un établissement à proximité.

Great location. Friendly reception, though very limited hours. But communication via e-mail worked well. Was also able to leave my bag at reception until my departure flight. The room is very basic and the bed felt shorter and smaller than a standard 90x200cm single. The ventilation was a bit loud even though it did not help with the stuffy air much. The room was perfectly fine for a weekend getaway. I do not recommend booking breakfast, as there is no breakfast available in the hotel and you only get a coupon for a café which is 5 mins walk away and only includes a croissant and a cup of coffee or tea (and no English speaking service at café). I recommend looking for a small place called "the garden" which offers the same "breakfast" for 3€ or a full English Breakfast for 7€ (which is what I did my second day)

The room was nice, shower and bathroom excellent, be aware, it is right in the middle of teh old town and at weekends the noise doesn't subside till around 3 am. The location however is brilliant if you want to be right amongst it. Breakfast is at a café a few metres away, orange juice, coffee or tea with a pastry or Tostada, basically toast with ham or cheese on. Very nice though.

We had a lovely stay. The location is great, short distance to everything, the beach, Stores, restaurants etc. We were very pleasantly surprised of how nice it was for the price, especially since we had to book it last minute. The rooms were clean and practical, working aircondition in the room but also the common room,a shared kitchen area with coffee, microwave and your own shelf in the fridge for food and drinks. I would really recommend buying with breakfast included, the breakfast is at a cafe right next to the pension with the most amazing breakfast and lunch. We didn’t get breakfast included, but we still ate breakfast and lunch there every day because it was the most amazing food.

Excellent location and beautiful room. The owner was really accommodating and down to earth. The shared bathroom aspect wasn’t ideal but it’s the room I selected so I can’t complain. Loved the balcony and overall design of the spot. It’s noisy at night so travelers that aren’t used to cities should be aware of that since it’s centrally located in old town. Fireworks at night, bars nearby, etc. The building felt safe, there’s a fridge to store food, and also luggage storage. A quaint desk in the room with plenty of space. I’d definitely stay here again.
