Tandem Pórtico Alicante Suites
We stayed on the top floor "Atico". Great apartment. Quite small inside, but nice use of space, and the balcony is huge, with an amazing view of the castle, and it's an absolute sun trap. We travelled at the end of November and got a good few hours of sunbathing on the balcony.

Hotel Les Monges Palace Boutique
We had room 100 which was a great size as it was an accessible room. Lovely staff, great location - just a shame that the rooftop bar wasn’t open, however it was open to take your own drinks up if wanted.
