The two-pearl, 112-room Hotel Perla
Residencia isn’t anything fancy, but it attracts a young, hip crowd -- including many bachelor/bachelorette parties -- looking for
budget-friendly accommodations near the beach and party scene. The
central location is convenient, a five-minute walk to the beach and surrounded by bars. The outdoor pool, cafe and bar, and
English pub definitely add to the hotel's appeal, and freebies include a breakfast buffet and Wi-Fi. Rooms are
quite basic and bathrooms show their age, but they’re fairly
clean and are outfitted with air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and terraces, but no in-room coffee- and tea-making facilities or mini-fridges, plus use of safes incurs a
fee. Travelers interested in a place that’s less noisy might want to check rates at La Caseta Apartments.

Scene
Contemporary hotel with a no-frills style and young, rowdy clientele
Hotel
Perla Residencia is situated in a bland building surrounded by bars, hotels, and
restaurants. Though the
interior features contemporary decor, the gray floors, gray desk, and dated orange
armchairs read as a low-level chain hotel that hasn’t received
a makeover in years. The rest of the hotel has the same no-frills style. The
cafe and bar is made up of black and red plastic chairs, glossy gray floors, and
little to no decorative pieces, though it's well lit by floor-to-ceiling
windows. It also has outdoor seating on a tiled patio furnished with woven chairs and red tables. By contrast, the attached English pub has a
traditional look with a wooden bar, high tables with stools, neon lighting, and
banners of UK flags. It’s also partially open-air and offers multiple pool tables, TVs, and
a stage that hosts risqué live performances of the adult variety. The pub, combined with cheap rates, attract a young, rowdy crowd filled with bachelor and
bachelorette parties as well as young couples on vacation.
Location
Within walking distance of the beach, bars, and dining options
Though the hotel is not located directly on Levante
Beach, it’s only a five-minute walk away. It’s in a great location to explore bars and restaurants on
surrounding streets, such as the next door Rose & Crown Sports Bar, which
has early morning hours. The closest bus stop is a five-minute walk away.
Though it’s not a family-friendly hotel, those with kids can take advantage of
a nearby outdoor children’s play area with games and inflatable play zones. The
Church of San Jaime is a 20-minute walk away, as is the Balcon de Mediterraneo, a
great ocean viewpoint. Terra Mitica, an amusement park, is a 15-minute drive.
It’s a 40-minute drive to the nearest airport in Alicante.
Rooms
Basic rooms with flat-screen TVs, AC, and terraces -- but safes cost a fee
The rooms at Hotel Perla Residencia feature simple, contemporary decor that's fairly basic, with little decorative elements beyond neon green accent walls. The gray bed covers and streamlined blond wood furniture make for
a drab atmosphere, but guests don’t seem to mind since it’s clean. Rooms
range from Single to Triple Rooms and include flat-screen TVs,
air-conditioning, free Wi-Fi, and terraces, but there are no mini-fridges or coffee- and tea-making facilities, plus safes incur a charge and TV remotes must be obtained from the front desk for a fee. Prepare for loud nights, as there have been complaints about noise from nearby bars and neighbors
who party. Bathrooms are basic and are starting to show their
age. Some have a bit of grime around the edges, but they're generally clean. They include marble sinks,
shower/tub combos, bidets, and toiletries, though no hairdryers.
Features
Popular pub, outdoor pool, solarium, cafe bar, and free Wi-Fi
Catering to a young crowd, Hotel Perla
Residencia’s English-themed pub features regular live adult entertainment and makes the
most of the hotel's wild vibe. There's a large outdoor pool surrounded by a spacious sundeck lined with loungers, as well as a pool bar that serves an assortment of drinks. There’s also a
children’s pool, even though this hotel isn’t necessarily family-friendly.
Guests can take in rays on the hotel’s solarium or relax in the Leisure Room, which has two public computers that can be used for a fee, a pool table, and
comfy sofas. As for on-site dining, there’s a cafe bar that serves drinks and
snacks throughout the day. It has indoor and outdoor seating, with a pool table
on the outdoor deck. A breakfast is served in the mornings and is included in
some room rates. Note that there is no fitness center on-site. Wi-Fi is free, but parking
costs a fee and is limited.
