Benidorm hostels

Benidorm is a busy coastal holiday town of high-rise hotels and lavish resorts, but if you’re backpacking or travelling on a budget, you’ll still be able to find cost-effective Benidorm hostels. These have all the basic amenities you’ll need, if all you want is a base from which to enjoy the beaches, natural attractions and nightlife here. Another advantage is that you’ll often be able to self-cater if you stay at a hostel, which is another great way to make the most of your holiday budget. A well-placed choice is Hostal Boutique Benidorm Blue Beach, which is within walking distance of the beach and the town centre. Although it’s a hostel, you’ll be pleasantly surprised at everything you’ll get when you stay here, like complimentary toiletries and a flat screen TV.

For holidaying or backpacking through Spain with a group of friends, a hostel makes a great option too. It’s also ideal for student groups out for a party in this hugely popular Mediterranean resort. The benefit of sharing the cost means that you can stretch your budget further or stay in a hostel that has a few extra touches. And if you also want to be as close to the beach as possible, one of the best Benidorm hostels to choose is El Arielle La Costa. It’s just over a mile from Levante Beach and also close to Benidorm Municipal Market for groceries and supplies, as you’ll have your own kitchen with appliances like a washing machine.

Sunrise is the pick of Benidorm hostels if you don’t want to stay in the midst of the busy tourist resorts. It’s roughly just over a 10min drive from the centre of Benidorm on the city’s main CV-70 arterial. You’ll have a terrace with a mountain view, a kitchenette and a washing machine, as well as access to a communal games room. If you’re on holiday with kids, there’s a children’s playground on the premises alongside a garden in which you can relax and get a breather.
