Hotel Caballo de Oro

Fantastic stay bteween 30/09/2024 and 07/10/2024. Great staff and good food. Hotel was spotlessly clean. Very comfortable beds. Would stay agin. Only downside was evening meal was at 8pm which is too late for us, but the Spanish eat later. In a good location as well.

Just got back from a 3 night stay Was travelling solo so wanted to make sure a was going to be safe. Check in on arrival was quick was on the 7th floor overlooking Tommy's bar which does bingo and 2 for 1 drinks Room was very clean but a bit dated but that was no problem Had a TV with a few English channels as this hotel Caters more for the Spanish which is not a problem at all Rooms have baths and showers and the showers were the best IV ever used in any hotel. Beds are comfy with Maid service everyday. Got told you had to hire a fridge but was already one in my room when I arrived Aircon was a must due to the extreme heat over but they were also radiators Only cost me a extra €20 to up grade from B&B to full board Breakfast lunch and dinner were standard but catered for Spanish etc which again I don't mind your in Spain. Bottles of water €1 bottle of wine started from €4 Pool area is big and clean with more than enough sunbeds tables and chairs Only downside was the lifts only 2 which room forever especially round meal times so I must of lost a few 1lbs going up and down. They is also a big bar area with lots of seating I am fussy and I would go again they say you get what you pay for and this 2 me was a bargain They is also a slight incline if you have disability issues They are also safes to hire and hairdryers in bathroom

The hotel is located not far from British Square and half way between the new and old town. The hotel really caters for an older Spanish clientele and would not be suitable for young families. The room was pleasant if a little dated. It was clean and well maintained. There were no English channels on my TV and the rooms do not have fridges - though you can hire them. There is wifi but it is somewhat slow and unreliable. The bed I found very comfortable and there was a large balcony. Breakfast did have warm and cold items - perhaps not entirely to British tastes. The dining room was rather understaffed at breakfast and finding a clean table was difficult. I found no problems with the bathroom and the shower was more than adequate. Towels were changed daily. The pool was large for the size of the hotel. I guess it was a 25 metre pool with the last 5 metre sectioned off for children. The area around the pool was large and very pleasant. The hotel was significantly cheaper than comparable hotels in the area.

Very good location, central to the centre of benidorm. We went on a stag do so was only a 5 minute walk to all the bars which was good. Very clean hotel but rooms are a bit dated, breakfast not really up to much. We felt like we stuck out a bit as we was the only non Spanish people staying at the hotel. Get what you pay for.

I have just returned from a 4 night break in this hotel arrived Sunday 9th Feb, I arrived at 12.20pm and as I had emailed prior to arrival to let them know (check in is 4pm) they kindly had a room available for me. I got room 204 and check in was average, the guy on reception was friendly, so was the girl working a couple of nights, the other staff were pleasant. The room sees little sun (ask for a room facing Tommys Bar or the sea) through the day, maybe because of the time of year. It has a balcony, 2 chairs and a table, the room was very clean and the hotel enforced all the current covid measures including gloves at breakfast. Breakfast was OK, but get there before 9.45am as they will be clearing everything away by them. There is a nice pool area, the pool was closed as it is out of season, the sunbeds were one position only and they would do better with adjustable ones. It was nice and quiet and hot enough to sunbathe, there may have been a sun terrace but the steps were chained off The room has a safe, cost me 6 euros for the 4 nights a bargain compared to some places, although I believe all hotels should provide a digital free safe to save carrying a key out with you. The bed was comfy and clean and I slept well, plenty blankets, air con too or temperature to adjust. The TV (small wall mounted) has one English station ( I couldn't care less, but some of you may have kids) and that was News Francais in English. No fridge which is a shame, plenty storage space for me nd would have been enough should two people be using the room. Toiletries provided, the bathroom has a hairdryer in there too, but I am bald so no idea how good it was. The shower was plenty powerful and good hot water I believe the hotel caters mainly for the Spanish who think nothing of gathering and chatting in the restaurant at breakfast despite a queue behind them or if they are blocking access to the breakfast. There are 2 coffee, juice and toast stations but you may have to wait a while for the toaster, it seemed popular. To get here I took the ALSA bus from Airport to Avenida Europa at 9.8 euros one way and it is a five minute walk. There are buses every hour I would expect there to be more than that in summer and the journey is approx 50 minutes. You can buy tickets I paid on the bus itself, departs from the 2nd floor far right of departures Plenty small shops nearby and the beach and bars are a 5 minute walk. On the front beware the potato men scamming you with the find the lady trick and their accomplices winning everytime to make it look easy (if you pick the right one they squeeze the potato and the pea sticks inside so when they lift it, it isn't there) and picking pockets or bags, the other scam is the friendship bracelet someone ties on your wrist then demands money and wont leave you till they have something from you, not seen this recently on my travels, the last time being Rome a few years ago Room, clean, good size, comfy bed, safe, no fridge, balcony, TV Sta

Hemos estado 12 dias un grupo de amigas y todo correcto pero hemos de comentar que la comida estaba asquerosa, no sabias ni que coger porque solo la presencia te daba para atrás. El resto correcto, habitaciones ,limpieza,baile, personal un poco antipático.
