Hotel Don Pancho
in
Benidorm
,
Costa Blanca
With lots of 5 star ratings on TripAdvisor, there’s no doubt about it, the Hotel Don Pancho is a real people pleaser.
The Hotel Don Pancho is a striking building that juts up into the Benidorm skyline, meaning it stands, quite literally, head and shoulders above the rest. It makes the same impression on TripAdvisor, too – readers regularly give it 5 star ratings.
Inside, it’s just as bold. Move into the lobby and you’ll find a huge room dotted with brown leather sofas, big chunky glass-topped tables, and pillars daubed with Aztec-like etchings. The bar is impressive, too. It’s kitted out with comfy crescent-shaped chairs and high-backed stools, but it’s the elaborate wall carving that sits next to it that really takes the limelight.
As for the bedrooms, they’re a much more sedate affair. With comfy beds and wooden furniture, the walls have been painted in a warm peach and white colour scheme. What’s more, they’re all air-conditioned and come with their own private balcony.
Outside, two rectangular swimming pools sit side-by-side in a sun terrace. One is especially for the little one's. They’re pulled right up close to the hotel, and come surrounded with sunbeds and sunshine-yellow parasols. And there’s a pool bar open during the summer, so drinks and snacks are close at hand.
As for the evening, there’s plenty going on. For starters, there’s a live band six nights a week, while cabaret acts are also on the cards. Think magic shows, balancing acts and flamenco dancing.

Your guide to Benidorm, Costa Blanca
"Benidorm sprawls happily up the hills and off into the horizon. Developed from a tiny fishing village, it is now one of the cleanest and most popular resorts in the Mediterranean."
To all intents and purposes, Benidorm is the Costa Blanca. Tucked up against a duo of beaches, its modern skyline has something almost Manhattan-esque about it. But that’s only part of the picture, as the 1.3 million Brits who holiday here every year will tell you. In fact, the city has two very different faces. On the one hand, it's the undisputed capital of happy hour bars, roast dinners and neon discos. And on the other, its all cobbled streets, dinky white houses and tapas bars.
Of course, the beaches are the big draw, though. The pale golden sands here not only boast Blue Flag status, they’re rated among Europe’s best. They’ve got first-class facilities, too. The promenade runs the full length, and with multi-coloured decking in a funky wave-like formation, it adds a touch of style to Benidorm. There are also cafés, bars and restaurants, and even a beach library.
Away from the sands, the shopping scene caters for all tastes, particularly in the old town. You’ll find shops of every kind, from traditional delis to boutiques selling designer togs. Check out the El Cisne Market, too. Held every weekend, it’s stacked with antiques. On the food front, expect things like vindaloo, chop suey, bacon and eggs - you name it, it’s probably on the menu. For a taste of Spain though, it has to be Santo Domingo Street in the old town, otherwise known as Tapas Alley. It seems like every Spaniard under the sun gathers here to graze on big juicy olives and jamon Serrano.
Last but not least, families shouldn’t miss Benidorm’s four big theme parks. Aqualandia waterpark always hits the mark with slides like Niagara and the Big Bang. And Terra Mitica theme park is just as action-packed with white-knuckle rides that guarantee screams. Or spend a day at one of the animal parks.
