Average Melia Hotel.
So my husband and I came to stay at melia benidorm for 5 nights,and i would say its average stay, the hotel is beautiful,the staff are lovely, but swe struggled with the food buffet, when we found something we liked,the food was either over or undercooked,there was flies all around the salads and cheeses that was off putting,as we were all inclusive you would think that means you can have whatever food and drinks you want (except for premium drinks and mini bar of course) but thats not the case,we could have a banana smoothie,but if you wanted a banana and strawberry smoothie you had to pay €6.50, same with other bits on the snack bar menu, my husband ordered a cesaser salad ,and let's just say it was bad (it had chicken nuggets in it) the only thing that was correct was the pamesan, we did make a complaint which they said somone would be intouch,we were asked what we would like to drink with dinner,my husband asked for coffee,and was told no,as they only serve coffee at breakfast. All I can say is its average,it may just be that we have been very spoilt at melia sunny beach.

Credit card shock fees
Sadly they took a €50 fee from our credit card unexpectedly. We have contacted the hotel, who confirmed they would refund it, but 3 chases later and we are still out of pocket.
Beautiful hotel on the outside, but major drawbacks for location, staff, and inclusivity
Pros: The Meliá Benidorm is undeniably a visually stunning hotel; the architecture and aesthetic areas are gorgeous to look at. Rooms are lovely and spacious. Cons: Isolation / Location: The hotel is located very far out from the main strip and the beach. Walking is a major challenge, and anyone with mobility issues would definitely need to hire a scooter just to get around outside the hotel grounds. Accessibility / Layout: Even within the property, the pool area feels too far away and poorly positioned relative to the rooms, making getting around a daily hurdle. Staff & Service: Unfortunately, the staff were not friendly at all. We were not made to feel welcome, which put a damper on the entire experience. All-Inclusive Disparity: There was a very noticeable and disappointing divide in how guests were treated based on whether or not they were on an all-inclusive package. Non-all-inclusive guests were treated quite differently, which felt unwelcoming and unfair.we were even charged one euro for two cubes of ice when we asked for water to take medication. They also charge for charging scooters two euro a night and kept unplugging our scooter charger when we didn't pay it resulting in a trip to the police station to report our charger missing. Overall Verdict: While the Meliá Benidorm looks beautiful on the surface, there is something severely lacking in the overall guest experience, service, and accessibility to make it a truly enjoyable stay. We were ultimately very disappointed with our holiday here and wouldn't choose to return
Enjoyable Stay
Stayed previously and have already booked for next year. The hotel is a little dated. We booked the Level experience. The room was clean, bed comfortable with all the amenities. High floors rooms get the best views but this could cost extra. The staff in the Level Lounge are excellent (thank you to Selina, Yuleisy, Anyelina and Eva). And in the Lounge breakfast area, thank you to Rosa, Veronica and Patricia for their friendliness and smiles. Food - generally pretty OK and you will always find something to eat. As mentioned, the hotel is getting a little dated but the hardworking staff more than make up for it. Also, thank you to Javier at main reception for his help and travel advice and General Manager, Manuel.

No way a 4 star
I found the room very dated and dark, my room. Beds very hard could not sleep
Was offered to have my room cleaned at 4pm? Both times I was ones in room .what this that about
It’s no way a 4 star 3 at a push. Only friendly staff are those working at bar next to the entrance most just walk past you.
Really book somewhere I would give the bedroom 2 stars and the fridge was filthy
