Hotel Boutique La Serena Altea

We spent two nights at the hotel and celebrated our wedding dinner at the L’Etiquette restaurant inside the hotel. From the very first visit for information, through the communication during the organisation, to the stay and the dinner itself – the whole experience was amazing. Julie was wonderful to communicate with while planning – thank you! Aranzazu made our stay and dinner extra special with her incredible eye for detail, care, and the love she put into everything. The food was excellent (with special attention to allergies – something that is not always easy in Spain, but handled phenomenally here). The location is beautiful, and the staff are truly incredible. Thank you to everyone at La Serena for a wonderful time. We will definitely be back!

We went to the hotel restaurant for an evening meal and we were most welcomed and waited on beautifully. Our starter and main meal were both delicious, accompanied by great wine choices too. |It's a lovely setting and terrace to match |We complimented the female chef also. Sorry we didn't catch either of your names.|It is a truly beautiful place to eat and stay. Impeccably clean and the design is well thought out too. A really memorable dining experience . Our only regret is that we didn't stay overnight. I would say the hotel needs a sign post from the main road as you don't know of its position. We only came across it by accident. I will definitely book to stay and dine here on my return to Altea for sure, next time, thank you, it's really perfect.

A beautiful spot in Altea 👍|We visited the place during Easter with massage and spa and have stayed over a couple of times and it never disappoints you !||Spa, massage and nice rooms. Just a pity that not more people uses the nice restaurant😀👍|Excellent place….

We booked last minute for 5 days in September (and got a discount by booking directly with the hotel) and had a lovely stay but did have to remind ourselves that despite the very chic decor, the hotel is only a three star. We booked an urban deluxe room which was the cheapest - it was really clean and nice decor, but very small and no outdoor area. Does have a private enclosed bathroom though (if you want this level of privacy - unlike the other rooms.) All in all, it was lovely and worked for us, but very much a 3 star hotel and possibly a bit overpriced for that. Pros - as everyone has said, the location is perfect. 5 mins from old town and 5 mins from the beach. Staff were friendly. The pool area is lovely and relaxing - usually always enough beds to go around. Cons - the breakfast was cold options only (cereal, small amount of fruit, cheese/meat, small croissants, yoghurt, baguettes, pre cooked boiled eggs and tortilla.) Shame you couldn’t get cooked, fresh eggs. For us, the mattress was too soft and cushiony, and the bed was small. It also rained 2-3 days we were there and there was quite a big leak in the main hallway (that no staff acknowledged) literally dripping down the main stairwell, and we quickly learned there wasn’t really anywhere comfortable to sit and relax that wasn’t in the rain - again meaning you have to go out to find somewhere to sit and read in the poor weather. They did virtually no veggie options on the lunch or dinner menu so had to eat out twice a day. If you’re looking for a restaurant and are into your food, go to Xef Pirata. Really exceptional tapas!

A gem Staff superb Facilities and views charming Very comfortable Lovely patio and pool Adults only

The location is perfect ||- 5 minutes walk away from the beach||- 5 minutes walk to Plaza de la Iglesia. Here you find a lot of restaurants, shops and bars. ||My room was large. Great bed and a shower to die for. Coffee machine and mini bar at the room. ||The pool area has amazing sunbeds and a lovely pool. ||I love a great breakfast. The breakfast at La Serena is not great. It is decent. |You can not order any eggs like scramble, fried or an omelet. |The tortilla is very similar to the one I buy at Mercadona. I think it is from Mercadona. Which is fine with me. Mercadona makes the best tortilla in Spain. ||I did not try the restaurant for lunch or dinner. ||I will stay at La Serena next time I am in Altea

Get a top floor room if you can otherwise you'll hear every toilet flush from the rooms above. Aside from that, it's lush!

We went for a spa day with dinner included. It was beautiful! The spa is like no other in the area. A very relaxing & unique experience. They had a bottle of water and OJ, lots of fruit, slippers and bath robes all at the ready. Only slight issue was that we were ‘late’ leaving the spa. If you have paid for 2 hours you have to be out in 2 hours, including the time it takes you to change and leave. We then had a couple of hours to wait before dinner, but the receptionist let us use the pool side beds while we waited which was very kind The dinner was delicious and the waiter and waitress were super friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!
