This hotel is centrally located for the beach, and old and new town we really could not see ourselves staying anywhere else as location is our top priority. The hotel and rooms are kept spotlessly clean. We had a lovely room on the tenth floor at the front of the building with views over the sea. The only downside for us was that the food is predominantly spanish. We stayed on half board basis. The breakfast was fine, cereals, toast, eggs, you could always find something, dinner was a different matter though. We will definatley return to the Maderia Centro but on B&B basis only.

Don't spend anymore time reading through countless reviews. If you are a couple without kids, want the classiest, best hotel right in the centre of Benidorm with fantastic panoramic views,situated right next to the old town and 200m from the beach, book this. Nothing else comes close.
Do yourself a favour and book the hotel direct, b & b only for a fantastic full breakfast and eat out each night.
You will not be disappointed.

We stayed here in April this year .What a Superb Room we had double balcony ,fantastic view.Very good food.A very Spanish feel to it.Hotel Very Clean wil definitley go next year .Location could not have been better .

Location
Situated 2 mins walk from the beach in the Old Town. Only 5 mins walk to the Centre of the Old Town and 10 -15mins walk in the other direction to the busy 'British' bars of the New Town.

Rooms
Fair sized room. A TV was available;it showed CNN, Sky News and Eurosport. The balcony was a good size. It is a very modern and clean hotel. I was staying on my own in this hotel (the rest of my party were in the New Town). I got a double room for myself at quite a reasonable rate.

Meals

Breakfast - You could have a fried breakfast eg sausages, fried egg, sausages, beans toast and/or something more Continental eg croissants and cheese. Orange juice was available. To be honest, after a week I was sick of the smell of sausages and bacon.

Lunch/Dinner - these were pretty similiar. You could have unusual fod such as bull tail or more mainstream meat and fish. Chips were available everyday. Fish or chicken tended to be boned not filleted.


Hotel Facilities
The hotel had an outside lift with panoramic views of the Old Town - but this year this was only available for people going to the posh restaurant on the 2oth floor.There was a very small outdoor pool and another modest indoor pool. A gym was available for a few Euros a day. If you are interested in hotel cabaret style entertainment that was available;it catered for Spanish tastes.

Guests
Mainly Spanish and predominantly 'older', although there were some families.

Overall, this is the second time I was at the Madeira centro; I was there the previous year. However, if i go back to Benidorm again I think I'll go to a hotel in the New Town - nearer to the nightlife and where I'm not one of the youngest guests!
