Hotel Rocinante

This hotel is on main road that passes Calpe so is easy to find and plenty of free parking. We chose it as we have a dog and it was the only hotel that took dogs in Calpe and didn't rip us off with cleaning fees, it was only an extra 5 euros for the dog. The room was fine and the staff helpful. Downsides are it's 45 mins walk to the rock which is the main attraction, the shopping centre is about 15 mins walk away with the promenade another 5 mins from shopping centre. There is a bar in hotel but they don't serve alcohol and there's no bars closeby so again you are looking at a walk of 30-40 mins to get to the bars near the rock. We stayed one night for Oktoberfest and as that is only 15 mins walk away this hotel suited us.

We stayed here for one night during our road trip. For us, this was perfect. Close to the main road so we could easily park the car there and could easily restart driving the next morning. Very friendly staff. They give you all the info you need and are very flexi at the breakfast table. Not buffet style but classic B&B style. Perfect little swimming pool in a nice garden with sun and shade. With view on the city and the big rock (forgotten the name at the moment). Yes, Calpe was much better dan Alicante ! Location of the hotel was ok for us. But not for a long stay with beach visits all day ;)

Telling general, it is quite average hotel but with nice and smiling staff. They are also very helpful with giving some tour tips nearby. French owners are real stars. Information: location is not perfect - about 15 minutes from the beach part of the town and restaurants. Guests have main road passing by instead. Rooms are bright and with view for enjoying. Cleaning level is acceptable. Some facilities in the room are broken. Price is fair and can include breakfast. Breakfast is well defined and no buffet. Dinners if chosen will be fast-food type and without any fineness. Pros - small swimming pool, garden work around, free parking Cons - no wi-fi in rooms, nothing interesting in the range of 2 km, noisy environment (main road).

Estuvimos dos días en este hotel y solo podemos decir que volveríamos! La piscina coqueta, las habitaciones muy agradables y sobre todo el personal, estupendo. Nos ayudaron con algunas costillas, nos informaron muy bien de todo, muy amables. Se esta como en casa!

My wife and I booked into this hotel as we passed it on a trip. It looks OK from the outside,friendly,helpful staff,nice pool,nice gardens,but that's were it ends.The room,109,was basic,badly in need of a re-furb,balcony with nice view,and 2 plastic chairs. Nowhere to sit in the bedroom,we opened the draws in the dressing table unit,one was full of hair,and the other was filthy inside. Bathroom had no hand towels,and the shower was a hand held one,with no attachment to fit it to the wall.

Enjoyed my 1 night stay. A good walk down hill into Calpe. Hotel does not do dinner.
