Wrong star rating -definitely not a 4star
03 Oct 2026
Shame on Jet 2 for saying this location is 4 star. If you like having your meals in a school canteen and drinking coffee from paper cups, then enjoy!This is a very tall and narrow hotel with 25 floors. Shocked to see that there was no complimentary water on arrival. No privacy if your in the lower floors from being overlooked from adjacent buildings. The à la carte restaurant is small and is separately run to the hotel. Booking the restaurant before you arrive is a must. Lifts are slow and very small so if you like getting your steps then fill yer boots! Asked Jet 2 before we physically checked to see if could move to the proper “Melia hotel”, they came back with the cost of the holiday again! There are 3x Melia hotels in Alicante. Pay the extra and go to either of the other 2. I think Jet 2 should have gone to Specsavers!

Very disappointed

I booked the hotel back in February I booked the family room because my husband has multiple myeloma & would require space .I added breakfast on around June I understand that I would pay more but I didn’t realise that they would change the room to either twin or double.I gave them a a ring & they told me it was a double bed I explained that my husband could experience a lot of pain & would require his own bed .The lady on the phone said she would make a twin room availability for us & put us on 13 floor which I thought was fare as I did ask for big room at the beginning.On the day of departure we got stuck in the lift for 45 mins which was a terrible experience.After getting back home I have noticed a £177 pending transaction it’s obviously for the room change

Nothing to shout about, basic but clean. Location is excellent. Breakfast is good with several options. Property is a bit dated but is fine if you’re just using it to sleep/wash. Not enough elevators for the demand. I found the beds were hard and uncomfortable.

Shocking lack of air conditioning for customers and staff
01 Aug 2026
My friends and I visited the cocktail bar on the 26th floor of the Grand Sol Hotel in Alicante on 2nd August. On arrival, we were very surprised by how small it was. The bar was extremely crowded, with only one young woman serving.She came over, cleaned our table, gave us a menu, and said she would be back to take our order. Within a few minutes, however, we realised just how unbearably hot it was for a hotel of this supposed standard.. There didn’t appear to be any air conditioning, and after only a short time we decided to leave because the heat was unbearable.We couldn’t help noticing that the server was rushed off her feet and working in extremely uncomfortable conditions. She looked exhausted and bedraggled. We found it unbearable to sit there and enjoy a cocktail, so I can only imagine how difficult it must have been for her to work an entire shift in that environment. We couldn’t help but notice that on entrance the reception was a total contrast with very comfortable air conditioning compared to the cocktail bar. Surely there is a duty of care towards employees, quite apart from providing a comfortable experience for paying customers. Overall, it was a very disappointing and unpleasant experience.
