Stayed 5th to 9th Nov. Were checked in quickly offered a choice of high or low floors.All rooms have a pool view. Free safe hire but they forgot to explain how it worked electronic key pad as well as a key? A nice man from reception came to our rescue when the alarm went off when we tried to figure it out!Beautiful comfy rooms free toiletries & an emergency kit cotton buds, cleansing pads,sewing kit& shower hat, lovely quality towels (bath sheets not skimpy) Also a stocked fridge in the room.
Hotel is very impressive and seems quite up market e.g. a boutique in the lobby area sells Armani and other designer clothes. Not a souviner in sight. Had A look in the hotels next door this was much better.
Can't comment on entertainment used the excellent bars over the road saw loads of Benidorms finest acts.
Food....Breakfast amazing everything you could want. Evening meal not great but not bad always found something to eat. Deserts were to die for.
Pool area amazing but a bit cold for a dip. Would love to stay again in the summer and use that amazing pool.
Would definatley stay again.

Our stay at the Melia was as usual excellent. Staff friendly and efficient ,breakfast spoiled for choice , rooms very comfortable, lounge and bar area spacious and relaxing. The hotel is situated for easy access for beach a short walk away and a great choice of restaurant 's and bars nearby. We have stayed here on numerous occasions and will certainly return.

Room tip: If very hot draw curtains when going out .will keep room a bit cooler for your return.

My Wife and Myself have stayed in the Melia about 16 times now, we came home from our last visit two weeks ago.
Almost everything was fine as it usually is ( the room, the sunbathing area, the staff) but the food has taken a massive drop in quality, most nights the food was either only just warm with limited choice, every night was cold French fries not even proper chips, twice my fish was still raw in the middle, my wife got pizza and the base was uncooked, either they have changed the chef or the kitchen staff don't care about the guests, I did take it up with the restaurant manager who was very sorry, but sorry is not good enough when the next meal is just as poor so we ate our evening meal out for the last two nights of our stay.
We are already booked to stay in February but unfortunatly if the food is as poor as this stay we will not be going back and find another hotel in the resort.
I have also noticed the hotel has stopped repling to customers reviews, so am not sure what is going on with the hotel at the moment.

This was our first time in Benidorm and the Melia Hotel was recommended to us by our travel consultant, Tracy Foley, and a few friends who had stayed here previously.
As we were the final stop on our coach, we had the opportunity to see wheee everyone else was staying. Some looked nice, others no so much, but as we pulled up to the Melia, we were quite impressed at how it looked on the surface.
The hotel itself was extremely clean. From the public spaces, pool area, restaurant, spa, to the rooms themselves, everything was immaculate. Strange, because I think I only saw two cleaners all work.
We decided to go all inclusive as we didn’t want to have to spend a fortune eating and drinking out everynight. Obviously, all meals were included so we ate in the restaurant at every opportunity. The food was generally very good with decent selection. Breakfast being the best meal of the day. There was an ok mixture of local food and traditional English too.
The all inclusive also included all drinks. Or so we thought. A lot of spirits were not included and local alternatives were offered. At first I was extremely disappointed as this has not being the case on several other all inclusive holidays. However according to my partner, this is the norm in Spain. We made do, especially as some local spirits were lovely!
Things to be aware of, in my opinion, are the beds. They are absolutely rock hard and having a bad back myself, I was crippled most of the week. Also some of the staff I found to be extremely rude. We had drinks every night in the hotel bar and certain bartenders would it a little too obvious that they were ‘taking the micky’ a little bit.
The main thing that almost ruined our entire time at the Melia is when a group of 300 guests arrived to the hotel for a conference. Fine, a bit of noise by the pool at midday and the lobby was fuller than normal on a night, I can put up with that. However, we could not get into the restaurant for any meal during that day. I felt as though they put priority in these guests over us, the people who have already paid upfront for a week. I did complain to the front desk along with several other guests only to be told to try going to the restaurant at different times to avoid the busy periods. Not the answer I was looking for.
Anyway, all of this in mind paired with the location of the hotel - a 15 minute walk from beach/strip, and only a couple of downpours or rain, we had a pretty good time but found ourselves having to leave the hotel to find an atmosphere. If I’d have my time again in October half term, I would not go all inclusive! Only worth it if you really do like a drink without an atmosphere, which we don’t.
Would I go again? Probably not as I feel I could find a hotel of similar standard for much less money. Sorry.
