Next time I\'m in Spain I will for sure be staying here. The staff is great and can make your night/nights crazy and interesting. The whole hostel was clean and well kept. I like the full kitchen which helps to save money. Have little doubt if you stay here that you will enjoy yourself

I would recommend this hostel highly and really wish I had stayed there longer. It's at a good location a walk from the beach or the castle and the staff are super friendly. Everything was clean and the common area had a cool atmosphere. You could chill out and just relax or be a party animal with everyone else- your choice!

i felt like home at hostel x, they planned so many activities and took us out to a great tapas dinner. Everyone was friendly, and not in a fake way.

I want to come back to this hostel every time I come to Alicante! Shoutout to Alfi. I have been travelling around Europe for over 3 years now, and this is one of the rare few hostels where there is a medium-size community (say 20-30 people), I get to cook with people on the terrace, make friends, enjoy random community activities and have a relaxed check-out. Facilities are good,its a blessing to have private bathrooms although I think the hot water wasnt properly working every time n good wifi.

The owners are the greatest. One of the beat experiences I have had in all of Europe. We drank, ate, and conquered. Words cannot describe how great the hospitality at x hotel was. Defenitly going again!

A fledgling but nice hostel with excellent owners / managers that genuinely cared for everyone's wellbeing. Staying during the week in off-peak season with very few people, X-hostel wasn't able to deliver the "party" atmosphere it marketed, but that's not the hostel's fault. Breakfast was adequate but nothing special, and internet worked only sporadically from the 3rd floor and higher. Would be well worth the money and terrific fun come summertime.

Best hostel ever!!!!!!!!!! A few minutes walk from the train station was awesome! Checked in and within a few minutes I'm on the roof terrace chatting (and drinking) with people on the roof terrace. It's a really sociable place and it's like hanging out at your best friends house. I would come back to Alicante just for this hostel. Thanks guys!!

X Hostel Alicante - a great hostel? or the greatest hostel? Within moments of checking in you feel like you are hanging out with your friends such is the chilled out environment of the place. The staff are all hilarious people and this makes for awesome nights out on pub crawls and tapas tours. Enormous rooms, lockers, wi-fi and unbeatable location. The best hostel experience I have ever had. Highly recommended.

X-Hostel Alicante was amazing! I had a blast there and met so many fun and down to earth people. The staff is incredible, the rooms were comfortable and spacious, and there were plenty of fun activities to do everyday. Next time I come back you´re going down in ping pong Alfie! :)

X-Hostel is so conveniently located. Once you walk into X-Hostel you automatically get a feeling of belonging. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. They treat you like they have known you all your life. The facilities are clean and convenient. Specially in the common area. I wish I had more time to spend in Alicante because I could have easily hung out there an entire day.. X-Hostel Alicante isn't just part of the journey, it was a destination. What an incredible experience.

Best Hostel I have ever stayed! Everything is really near, oldtown, beach and clubs. Love the atmosphere, feels like home. Extremely nice stuff, especially Kadi. Also they have big terrace, kitchen, commonroom. Even I had 40min long showers they always had hot water! This place is definitely worth of visiting and don't miss their pub crowls.

This is one of the better party hostels I've stayed in. The staff are very helpful and sociable and are a lot of fun on a night out. The hostel has a pretty laid-back atmosphere with a nice common area which makes it easy to meet other guests. Even though Alicante isn't a huge city, the location is also pretty decent, close to shops/nightlife/public transport. I had a great time here - if I return to the south of Spain this summer I'd definitely stay here again.

I had a great stay in this hostel. The staff were very friendly and could not have been more helpful. It is very central and yet not very noisy at night time.

Any1staying in Alicante, I definitely recommend this place. People there are great. Minor cons: Can get a lil cold in the bedroom (just ask for a 2nd blanket). Common area closes @ 12am (but you should probably be at bars by then anyway) Pros: Lockers in room have their own locks & cheap towels for hire. Rooftop terrace. Common area w/ free computers & WIFI. WCs on every floor. 24 hr market & supermarket 1 1/2 blocks away. Also great pub crawl. Definitely a must stay in Alicante

Hostel is located near the train station which is good if you are coming in on the train and is a 15 minute walk out of town. The staff were friendly. I found it a little strange that there was no reception desk and therefore a place where you could always find staff, if you needed something it was necessary to look around the hostel to find them. I thought not having reception between 12-9am was unusual. Bathrooms were clean but part of the celing did fall down on my friend's head mid shower.
