It's on Av del Periodista y Escritor Antonio Romero, close to Calle Lepanto and Avenida Europa. It has been completely refurbished. It used to just be the Monaco. We walked past recently and it looks quite nice.

I wouldn't say it's in the Old Town.

Here is a link to google maps.

Edited to add that it looks like the google map view was taken during the work.

THIS is the hotel's own website, and our review page for the hotel can be found HERE.

Have a look at the sun4udirect.com they are offering A/I in November for 7 nights for £388.00 total party price for 2 people .. .. seems a bit cheap to me but that's what it saying, take a look.

Tina .. you may like to take a look at our Sun4U topic. However you will see that a number of the negative posts have been made by new members who posted just once and then immediately disappeared:

I'm going to the Sandos Monaco with my 13 year old daughter and her friend at the end of June. Can anyone advise me of any pubs other hotels near the Sandos Monaco so that I can try and judge where we will be. I'm not good with the street names even though i've been quite a few times now so looking for landmarks that I might recognise. Also, does anyone have advice on where the best place to exchange money just now and do sterling TC's still exist? Yes, it's been a few years since I had a holiday, lol

:cheers

Hi All,

I've just returned last week from the Sandos Monaco hotel
It all finished, and is finished to a high standard. The reception, pool area and restaurant are all clean and modern.
As are the rooms which have a LCD tv attached to your wall (10 euro refudnable for remote!)

The food is mainly 'international', but they do try to mix it up a bit. (i.e pizzas, sea food etc..)

We didn't see much of the entertainment, as we tended to go for a walk on the night. Saw 10 minutes of the bingo one night!

We enjoyed our stay and would go back.

It's located in a quieter area, if you start at Cafe Benidorm and head towards old town, going past 'Churchhills', 'Red Dog' and 'The Village Pub', it's down on the right. (About 5-10 minutes walk)

We booked with Sun4U - £238 for 4 nights A/I + Transfers + flights. We thought that was good value for money.
The flights were with Ryanair which is another matter!!

I'd recommend the hotel.

Hi Oscar,

Please could you tell me if the hotel provides any facilities for children as I am travelling to your hotel in July with two young children.

On a recent review on another popular site, a family were disappointed by the lack of entertainment for children.

Thanks

Good Morning,

There is mixed feelings about our entertainment for the kids, some parents think they are Ok, some parents don't.

We have a daily choice of activities like aerobics, aquaerobics, table tennis, darts, billiards, dance classes among others.
Games Room with table tennis, chess and other board games. Our pool have a special area for the kids , and do we have a Miniclub for the high seasons where they can enjoy their holidays as much as their parents.

Keep reading about Sandos Monaco and maybe you get to decide to come with your kids and enjoy the climate we starting to have in Benidorm, Summer has arrived earlier ! :sun2

Best Regards HolidayTruth Users !

Oscar

I have booked this hotel for the 26th June and really looking forward to my holiday. I read somewhere that one of the downsides to the hotel is that you do not get the sun as late in the afternoon as some hotels. Can Oscar confirm if this is the case or not. I can just visualise myself sitting by the pool with my cocktail already :cheers

The Sandos Monaco Hotel & Spa is adopting an adults only policy from 1 November:
http://www.sandos.com/en/sandos-monaco-hotel-spa-benidorm/all-inclusive-hotel-&-spa-adults-only.html

However, it seems that not all agents are aware. Some may not yet have informed families with existing bookings of this new policy, and some are still accepting bookings for families with kids from 1 November onwards.

Anyone with a reservation at this hotel from 1 November onwards which includes children may want to contact their booking agent asap.
