great location, clean rooms, ideal for people wanting to enjoy them selves till the very very early hours. beach just down the road, and benidorm square on your doorstep.

the only thing that ruined it for me was being charged 50 cent for a platic cup from the bar ,so we could enjoy a drink on our balcony, and i had been tipping the barmen throughout our stay, also they will charge you for ice. i think a bit of diplomacy needed their.

Room was spotless, bed linen changed every day aswel as towels. Quiet around the pool and plenty of sunloungers for everyone. All staff lovely. Bed and breakfast was basic but was nice. Hotel central and only a minute away from beach, restaurants, bars. Quiet and not a very good nightlife anymore, most bars were empty.

Fantastic hotel for two stars,...

Fantastic hotel for two stars, it had everything right on the doorstep. The pool was immaculate and we always managed to get a sun lounger. Rooms are cleaned everyday and spacious enough. Pubs and clubs nearby however watch your handbag as my bag got stolen straight from my arm in a pub called Beachcomber 2 minutes from La Perla.



Benidorm Palace was a great night out and the meal was excellent, the water park (Aqualandia) was a great day but just take plenty of euros because its an expensive day out!



Superb hotel in a great location with friendly staff.

just got back from benidorm on tuesday, very enjoyable, fantastic hotel. very clean, freindly enviroment. hotel staff great, helpful and friendly. rooms pretty basic beds and pillows not totally comfy. fresh towels everyday, bed changed everyday, maids very polite and friendly. facilities were superb, pool very nice and clean, lack of sunbeds is a little let down, get up early for breakfast and put towel on sunbeds is advisable. breakfast was nice eggs, bacon, sausage etc. both bars up and down staff were very joyful. bar food was great very friendly pool bar staff Gabriella and Manuel were amazing. as for location, maybe based on a main road which is always busy but never to loud, beach is literally a 5min walk down road. resturants and nightlife surrounding, music from nightclubs is turned down at 12 so doesnt disturb.

in all hotel la perla very good hotel no were near a 2star hotel, very under rated hotel, very very nice hotel, will definetly return. 10 out 10.

Just got back (literally!), wanted everyone to know what a great hotel this is!



Spotlessly clean, towels changed every day, floors mopped every other. Rooms are basic but adequate, when in Benidorm you spend very little time there anyway!



Breakfast was the same every day, but plenty of choice within that, fruit, yogurts, bacon, eggs, sausages, toast, biscuits and cakes, cereals, hot drinks and juices, croissants and pastries. Its up to you to make each day different!



The staff are all really friendly, with it being a smaller hotel they eventually get to know which room you're in and you dont have to ask for the key! Very impressed with the way they dont let troublemakers stay, there was a door punched through one night and the culprits were gone by the next morning.



The pool is lovely, v clean, plenty of shade if you want it. When we first arrived there wasnt any problem getting sunbeds, but towards the end as it got more busy you did have to get your towels out there by 9 to be guaranteed a bed.



We had a poolside room on the ground floor so noise wasnt a problem, but the other side does overlook the Red Dog saloon so i can imagine there might be a need for earplugs there! The location is perfect for anyone wanting to go to the English square every night (about 20 steps and you're there!), or for the beach, only a 3 block walk.



All in all a lovely friendly hotel. Benidorm is what it is, and if you're there for the nightlife the Perla is the best place, if we go back we'll definitely stay there.

Very nice and clean hotel staff...

Just returned from a 9 night stay at the Hotel Perla brill time rooms cleaned every day and clean towels every day we had a end room over looking the pool area on the top floor of 5 the balcony was big and l shaped as we had a end room but all the balcony's looked big.more then enough choice for breakfast with English sausage every day the pool area was big enough but not a lot of sunbeds so get out early the hotel is right in the hart of night life next door to the benidorm cafe and across the road from the red dog night club all in all a very good hotel and would definitely go back Manuel the pool side bar man is off his head and all the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Really great hotel everyone so friendly and helpful, only glitch was when we got there the rooms were not ready but no problem we sat in the bar at the front n got drunk!

Rooms were excellent and very clean and spacious even the girls who were sharing 3 to a room.

8 of us went in May 2007 19 of us girls are going to the same hotel and with the same operator.

Is so near the nightlife but also near the 'grown up bars' too for anyone who does not want to go clubbing which me n my sister in law didn't want to do every night as we are in our forties. Try Morgans for really good turns n great service.

Try Cafe Benidorm for a storming night (stamina required) you wont need a taxi as is very short staggering distance from hotel.

Try the market on Sundays and Weds also within a short walking distance.

Great hotel n cracking holiday can't wait for May 16th see you there!!

Having been to Benidorm twice before, this hotel was the best I have stayed in. I have no idea why this is only a 2 star!! unbelievable. The rooms are lovely and both the staff and the maids are very friendly (hi to Manuel at the pool bar). We paid for B&B and the breakfast was lovely, you're typical british variety with bacon, sausage, egg etc but far better than other hotels I have stayed in. You can't go wrong. The pool is also fab and we didnt have any problems getting sunbeds (free). There is also a indoor bar area with air con to get away from the blistering heat. Superb



As for the hotel's location, FANTASTIC. It's literally a stone throw away from Cafe Benidorm. Great for staggering home at 8am which we did mostly every night!! The beach is around a 5 minute walk. There are also bars, restaurants and cafe's right outside the Perla.



I recommend the square for buzzing clubs eg Bahamas, Hipprodome and Lennons - definitely wild nights out. But also for a quieter night try the Morgan Tavern, I highly recommend the Westlife Tribute, these guys are Fab and dare I say 2 of them are really fit. Also Rockerfella's is a must for the Take That tribute, they are great too. And last but by no means least visit Valentine's to see Matthew & Son - a great father and son act and very good friends of ours.



Benidorm is a fantastic resort for all ages and you will not be dissapointed. I'm going back in June 08 and can't wait!!!! Enjoy your stay

What a find this hotel was! It's classed a 2 star but this must be way out of date.



The rooms were immaculate and cleaned every day. And all the staff were really helpful and polite. We have already booked up again for next year.

Why this hotel is only a 2 star I will never know!!!! had a fantastic time, hotel superb. At night when you have the patio doors shut (air conditioning on) you can hardly hear a thing. The breakfast is lovely and always plenty of. I would stay at this hotel again any time, the staff are lovely.



Only thing we missed is a fridge in room!!!!! But we knew this before going.If you are like us and like to party but not all night mind, ask for a pool side view as the other side of hotel faces onto an all night pub/disco!!!!

The hotel Perla is in an excellent position for the nightlife of Benidorm, the rooms basic but clean.


Unfortunately this is the noisiest hotel I have stayed in, the doors had to be slammed to close and some of the other guests were very noisy coming in at night. We sometimes didn’t get in till 4am,but we did not make a noise.


The hotel walls were very thin and the people in the rooms adjoining could be heard word for word.


Although the hotel boasts air conditioning, it is only on a few hours a day, therefore when we awoke at lunch time, it was like sleeping in a greenhouse.


Pack your earplugs or buy them in the chemist opposite for 3 euros, you are going to need them.
