4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Alicante

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Alicante is during January, February, and December, when hotel rates tend to be lower. For those looking to explore the city's significant landmarks, cultural sites, and historical attractions, a stay of at least 3 to 4 days is recommended. This budget-friendly trip allows visitors to enjoy the beautiful beaches, visit the impressive castle, and immerse themselves in the rich history and vibrant culture. With the potential for prices to drop during these months, it's a great value for money for travellers on a budget.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to Alicante on Hotels.com, begin by exploring the Dealsopens in new window or Last-Minute Deals sections, where you may find reduced rates on hotels as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com to stay informed about flash sales and exclusive promotions, helping you seize opportunities to save. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you’re more likely to see when rooms become available or prices drop, so you can book your last-minute escape.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate based on various factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates may help you find a better deal on your stay in an Alicante hotel. For those seeking something distinctive, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and occasionally better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the cost is on the higher side, we may suggest alternative dates that could offer more affordable options.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels situated near the city centre generally tend to be more expensive; however, with Alicante's superb public transport options, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel located further afield that remains well connected. For those eager to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby towns, there is often excellent value to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
