Gala Placidia Hotel

TripAdvisor Review
Spain, Europe
Costa Blanca

So you've got the sun, the sea and the sand. You've got all the bars, restaurants and attractions of Benidorm at your disposal. Now you're just going to need a hotel to go with that...

Take a look at the Gala Placidia Hotel. It's one of Benidorm's best located hotels, just 600 metres from the gorgeous Levante beach (Please note that the hotel is up a steep hill). Better yet, it's one of Benidorm's friendliest hotels too. Let's be honest, Benidorm is all geared up for tourists - they know how to treat us well. But staying at the Gala Placidia Hotel can feel just that little bit extra special.

Try the Gala Placidia Hotel for a big taste of Benidorm hospitality (beach style):

When you're in Spain, it's nice to be close to the beach. And when you stay at the Gala Placidia Hotel you're only going to be about 600 metres away. Perfect. The beach at Levante is one of the region's best too. Lots of clean, golden sand and big horizons. Take it easy, take a dip, or get adventurous and try a few water sports - it's your holiday, make the most of it.

The irresistible allure of the beach is just one of the reasons people choose the Gala Placidia Hotel. It's perfectly placed for getting out and about in Benidorm too. Whether you get out by day for shopping and sightseeing, or by night for sangria and partying, the Gala Placidia is never far away. And there's always a warm welcome waiting for you.

There's certainly plenty there to help make the Gala Placidia feel like home for a week or two. Of course a comfortable room can help anywhere feel like home, and the Gala Placidia's rooms are comfy and cosy. They come equipped with air conditioning, TV, telephone, bath and shower as well as a strong box. All rooms have a balcony or terrace - somewhere else to relax and take in the sun and the sangria.

One of the other nice things about the Gala Placidia Hotel is its evening entertainment programme. It helps bring guests together and gives this hotel its close-knit, welcoming feel.

Another great place for guests to get together is around the main pool - whether you want to stretch out in the sun, swim a few laps or take a siesta. There's a children's pool too, and even a cot service (at a fee), so families are definitely welcome at the Gala Placidia.

Add to all of that a great buffet service and restaurant, TV room and you've got a hotel that ticks all the boxes.

With its great location, friendly ambience and abundant facilities, the Gala Placidia is always going to be one of this region's most popular tourist hotels.

Our go to hotel when staying in Benidorm

Our go to hotel when staying in Benidorm. This will be our 7th time. We always go all inclusive as the snack bar and meals are always plentiful and varied. The rooms are well appointed and cleaned every day ( a special shout out to the blonde cleaner who's name i unfotunately didn't catch but she was brilliant). The bar staff are very friendly and really go out of their way especially on barbecue night. The location is only about 10 minutes from the main strip however, several new bars have opened in the Rincon area and the atmosphere in these is fantastic.

A great experience

A friendly hotel. Very relaxed and food lovely. All the staff, reception, bar, restaurant and entertainment were all fabulous. I particularly liked that it felt a quieter hotel than you would imagine for Benidorm. No fighting for sunbeds which was an added bonus.

Wouldn’t return

Stayed here for a week all inclusive, none of the food was edible apart from the chips at the snack bar. The nuggets at the snack bar were brown inside, absolutely not chicken. Token system for drinks is annoying as they’re so small you lose them then have to pay 3 euros for a replacement. Walls are paper thin so it was noisy at all hours. Beds were like sleeping on a slab of concerete but were cleaned well. Pool area needs some maintenance. Location was good, hill walking up to it was fine, ignore reviews saying it’s a struggle.

Ok for a few days.

This is the type of hotel you go to if u just want an exceptionally clean base to sleep. The pools are clean and very well kept same with the rooms. It’s a good location for bars and restaurants. Found the food border line horrendous but the chips, salad and some breakfast items were ok. The entertainment is woeful at best. It’s not the type of hotel to go all inclusive and stay in your hotel nor is it for families with young children they would be bored to tears. Staff are helpful and friendly the cleaner on floor 4 was outstanding and does an immaculate job Ted and Sergio on reception are also friendly and polite. The noise is just the same in any Benidorm Hotel so didn’t find it an issue. Air con is pretty good. Would I go back? Probably not I like to eat the food I’ve paid for. We did have a great few days away which is what we wanted so it was fine.
