we stayed here for 2 nights and it was absolutely great. The hotel seems to be really new (though this chain is expanding in spain right now), big rooms, clean and luxorious bathroom, bed room spacious and flat screen tv with international channels. They have three stars, but if you know alicante and its hotel scene a bit better, you will know that there are some 4 star hotels with less comfort! The Abba is definitely a 4 star hotel, and Sauna and Gym (small) included on the top floor (Sauna fans be aware: It doesnt get more than 55 degrees, yes, Spanish are wimps!!!;) Anyway, the double room costs normally around 100€ a night, but with a special rate on the Web we made it for around 65 - so have a look for those offers, one day in advance. The staff speaks really good english - all of them!!! which is not common in Spain. Everyone is super friendly and helpful, here especially Marta who even managed to get us a parking spot even tough the parking was busy. They are very interested in advising you about things to see in Alicante etc. The only thing you need to check is the price for the parking (they sometimes dont tell you) - its around 15€ plus tax a night, so keep that in mind when you have a rented car and want to stay a couple of days.

Abba Centrum was one of the hotels that my partner and I stayed during our tour in Spain. The accomodation was arranged by our tour agency. It was a much needed incentive especially that the previous hotels that we´ve stayed in Madrid, Seville and Grandnada have questionable standards. The first impression of Abba Centrum was the hotel was modern, well maintained and clean. The room that we´ve got was big and has a couch in it. Although it´s a 3-star hotel, it has all the modern facities. The gym is small but is well equiped with the basic equipments. The breakfast is included in our stay. It was acceptable though it could be better. Overall the breakfast selection is simple. The location can be quite confusing. But do get a map from the reception. The staff would be most willing to assist you. On the whole, it´s a good economical hotel.

The Abba Centrum was one of the few hotels available for the climax of the bonfires of St. John. It was more expensive than the other hotels I'd stayed at (Goya before and Melia Alicante after), but much nicer than the former. The room itself was much smaller than the Melia Alicante, but flashier. There was a moderately sized flat-screen TV on the wall upon which I watched a futbol game while eating the TelePizza ordered from the in-room menu. The bathroom was about as large as the sleeping portion of the room, which says more for the size of the former than the latter. There was open WiFi, but my room was just on the outer cusp of reception. If it's important, you might be able to request a room with a better signal. The room had a window, but there's nothing to see but other walls. The hotel is centrally located in downtown, about a block from the bus depot . The beach is walkable if it's not your primary reason for being in Alicante.

I usually like Hotel Hesperia Centrum, but this time i decided to check out this hotel as it was cheaper. I LOVED IT, possibly a bit more than Hesperia. It is modern, so clean, big room with bathrooms, and the advantage is that there is an undergound parking for 11euro a night, which is rather cheap. The staff is so helpful and very nice. The location is right in the center of the city, close to the bus station, which is not always the best but it is safe. Would i go back, absolutely YES, without a doubt!
