Pensión Alicante San Nicolás

I loved the location, in the heart of the old town – sure, that means a bit of noise at night from happy revellers, but I was prepared for this after reading other reviews, and the owners also message out of consideration to make sure guests are aware of the issue prior to arrival. The positive flipside is that it means there's a nice, buzzy atmosphere in the neighbourhood during the day, and there are so many cafés and restaurants to choose from! Also just a short walk to Carrefour Express and the stop for the C6 bus to/from airport. (NB: rooms 9 + 10 look out directly onto the street, with cute little balconies + folding tables, so if noise is an issue for you maybe request a different room, or stay somewhere else!)||The benefits of this lovely Pensión, for me, far outweighed the nocturnal noise. Communication re arrival instructions was excellent. My room was beautifully furnished – I particularly loved the floor tiles, and the coffee mugs! Everything was spotlessly clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The property felt completely secure, and other guests were all friendly and mutually respectful. I also really appreciated the shared kitchen facilities. Overall a great stay!

I’ve stayed in various places around Alicante’s Old Town, but my time at Pensión Alicante San Nicolás was by far the best experience.||The biggest highlight: if you choose an interior room, you’ll actually get a quiet night’s sleep — something that’s hard to find in this area. The bed is comfortable, the room offers enough space, and the air-conditioning is both effective and silent. No outside noise, just peace and rest. Plus, you can make yourself a coffee in the morning right in your room.||They also provide free beach towels, and you can rent a sun chair and umbrella for a small fee. Everyone there is very friendly and truly committed to making your stay enjoyable.||And the best part? All this comes at a very reasonable price. In my opinion, it’s the best value-for-money accommodation in Alicante’s Old Town.

The Pension is on a great location. In the middle of the city. In a couple minutes you reach everything you need. The beach, Harbour or Restaurants. The room was clean and the size adequate. Sometimes you can hear noise from outside. But nothing disturbing. It has also a air conditioning. The owner was very friendly. There is a place with different things. Towels (for the beach), some food, sunscreen or a hat. For use. I enjoyed it to stay.

Really cool and convenient place to stay. 5 minutes walk from the beach and seconds to the many things available in the old town of Alicante. Next door to the Cathedral, under 30 minutes walk from the castle and all the very impressive museums.

An absolute gem in Alicante. Had a lovely stay at Caroline’s pensión, she is a great host. It is close to beach, restaurants and all sort of amenities, the rooms are comfortable and the place in general is well taken care of, tidy and clean. It was my second stay and won’t be the last. Definitely recommended.

Lovely apartment which has everything needed for a short stay. Very clean, can't fault it. |Excellent location just behind cathedral in old town, 5mins walk from beach. Loads of lovely restaurants close by. A visit to the castle is recommended as the views are stunning.

Amazing place, exactly in the centre of the old town of Alicante. Even in the beginning of June is 34C and the sea water is 25C. You can enjoy your sea holiday for sure. Friendly and kind staff, the hotel is next to the everything important, historical buildings and the beach 💯💯💯

A lovely place to stay while in Alicante. Very close to the C6 bus from the airport. We had the double room with a private bathroom and it was as good as any other hotel room you would stay in. The balcony view was very nice and cozy on the small street next to the old cathedral. There is also a shared kitchen where you can store things in the fridge which is very nice. You can leave your luggage in storage even after you check out if your flight is later and you still want to explore, no time limit either. Highly recommend if you want to be close to everything for a good price. The only reason I didnt give 5 stars is because when we arrived very late in the evening the 2nd code we had received did not work. We unfortunately had to knock on the door until another guest woke up and let us in. The next day Caroline the owner explained that the codes had changed at midnight and we had accidentally gotten the previous codes. Mistakes happen and luckily we got to our room but could have been a very bad start to our vacation. Would've been nice to have been offered something, like 2 free breakfast coupons for the next morning for example. Despite what happened I would still book a stay with Caroline the next time we are in Alicante which speaks to how nice, cozy and reasonably priced this place was.
