Our six-night stay at Hotel Meliá Alicante was a mixed experience, with a series of unresolved issues overshadowing its potential. While the hotel has a prime location, great amenities like a gym, outdoor pool, and stunning views, our stay was plagued by disruptions, including multiple room changes due to maintenance issues, loud neighbours requiring an ultimatum to resolve, and relentless construction noise starting at 8 AM. Although the suite provided for the latter part of our stay was comfortable and Francesco, the hotel experience manager, made efforts to improve our experience, the cumulative stress, sleeplessness, and reactive management left us disappointed. The hotel had moments of promise, but the shortcomings significantly diminished our overall enjoyment.
