Alicante

Looking for some feedback on the above please…

I normally go to Barcelona every year but not possible this year….Travelling solo…Like to be able to relax at beach/pool…1 or 2 days maybe a bit of sightseeing…Go for a few relaxing drinks at night…

Any thoughts on the above in terms of Alicante? Anyone recommend maybe a good street/region to stay? It looks small enough to me so I’m thinking handy to get around/can do a fair of walking…

I stayed in Alicante city in January 2020 for a weekend. Fine spot, if i was going back i would stay in Hotel Hospes Amérigo

Lovely…Any other recommendations? Anything to do/see during the day? Walks like? Anything to do other than relaxing/having a few beers? Looks like a small city you could get about easily enough?

Perhaps consider Valencia?

Plenty to see there, excellent underground and and team network, whilst having a beautiful beach

Only going for a few days - don’t want further hassle of getting to Valencia....I know it’s like only an hour up the road but still an extra leg to my trip...Seems enough in Alicante to keep me busy for a few days....
