Hotel Don Pancho, Benidorm Review - A 4* Hotel with 5* Service

One Block from the Levante Beach in Benidorm is the Don Pancho Hotel celebrating 50 years of operation in 2022. I stayed here for 7 nights at the end of August and this review details the room we stayed in and the hotel facilities including the pool, entertainment and food. This Hotel may have 4 stars… but should it have 5?
Public areas deliberately filmed when few people were around to protect the privacy of the other guests.

[@HotelDonPancho]

Thank you very much for your honest review about the Don Pancho Hotel. We have definitely taken note of all your suggestions for improvement. That is always our goal, to give the best service to our guests. We look forward to your return, as from now on this is your home in Benidorm!

[@AntandGlen]

Hey! I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it. I had an amazing time and I can't wait to come back soon! (And to stay in one of the attic rooms next!) Again, thanks so much for allowing me to film!

[@lukebelgium101]

See you in 2 days,Looking foward to see you all.

[@Jule397]

At last! A good, honest, well explained & informative review of the hotel. No annoying gimmicks, clear intentions or desperation of gain by capturing subscribers like so many other so called reviewers. Thorough and interesting content about the hotel which includes relatable opinions and fantastic footage. Not a single stupid facial expression, inuendo, snigger at own dialogue or fish & chip/ breakfast review in sight which was refreshing and thoroughly enjoyable. I look forward to watching more of your videos, thank you!

[@AntandGlen]

Hi JP, Glen and I are genuinely touched by such a wonderful comment. It really does give our style of content such validation. Thank you so much - You've literally made our evening! - Ant 😊

[@Jule397]

Hi guys, thank you for your reply. I rarely comment but credit where credit is due as thoroughly enjoyed your coverage of a hotel we've been interested in. Keep up the good work & wishing you all the best with your future endeavors, Julie 🙂

[@yorkshiregal]

We are returning to the Don Pancho on the 9th of January 2023 for 2 weeks. We stayed there this year in April/May and loved it. The food was fantastic, all the staff were very polite and couldn’t do enough for you. The rooms are very comfortable. I thoroughly recommend. Hoping to get a higher floor this stay.

[@Mersthamgal1]

We are staying at the moment, really love it. Thanks for the review. 👍😁

[@HelenDoyle-jo2fg]

Beautiful place

[@crazy-diamond7683]

Thanks for taking time out for this review, It looks fabulous, I know where I'm staying when I visit!

[@gapyearoldies6661]

Such an eloquent review - we shall be staying at the Don Pancho in June and found your review answered all our questions - thank you - now subscribed.

[@AntandGlen]

Thanks for your comment, folks. We wish you a terrific time at this fantastic hotel.

[@HotelDonPancho]

Cannot wait to watch!!

[@markbailey286]

Been planning to stay at this hotel for some time, everything l have seen about it has been positive. A well balanced polished and professional video, well done, you've just gained another subscriber!

[@AntandGlen]

Hey Mark, thanks so much for subscribing and I'm really glad you enjoyed the video. The hotel is fantastic and is a great choice! If you do stay, the white wine is only 2 euros a glass, and will easily stand up to glasses of wine that cost £9 a glass in the UK!

[@lukebelgium101]

Great hotel , friendly staff, fine food.We return next week for the second time this year.We recommend The Don Pancho hotel to everyone.

[@AntandGlen]

Yeah! I whole heartedly agree! it's a fantastic place to stay!

[@Top.Mallorca]

Amazing views of the city and the coast! Greetings from Mallorca Spain! Like 👍

[@AntandGlen]

Greetings! I am actually coming to Mallorca in a few weeks time, alas for only 1 day as I'm coming as part of a cruise, but I can't wait to visit!

[@rosehutton5864]

Love the don pancho I’ve stayed here about six times always excellent rooms and service is brilliant, looking forward to our return stay next summer and did I say the food is really good.

[@carolcapper9510]

Booked this week for the end of September. Looks a really good hotel. Can't wait.

[@AntandGlen]

Very jealous!

[@kenneth2656]

Great Video well done.

[@lukecoverdale3861]

I went into this hotel last week to watch some entertainment, the hotel was beautiful but I wouldnt want to stay there due to the closeness of rowdy bars which are literally on its doorstep. I would imagine the lower floors have lots of problems with outside noise till the early hours. Great video though, your presentation skills are excellent.

[@janethaston673]

Stayed at the Don Pancho a number of times higher floor,lower floor and something in between no noise at all from surrounding area.

[@jesimpson56]

Excellent review of a lovely hotel

[@AntandGlen]

Thanks so much! We really loved our time at the Don Pancho and can't wait to go back!

[@derekflannagan9102]

Thank you for your review we are staying at don pancho for four days 12th -16th February for my 65th birthday

[@anushmapokhrel1893]

Beautiful benidorm ❤

[@jameskeddle638]

Been there a couple of times love it 😊

[@stephenwilkinson2030]

Stayed at this hotel for the 22/23 New Year, agree with you about the quality of this hotel we enjoyed our stay. We would recommend the New Year gala dinner we were treated like VIP, s if you're considering a visit.

[@dollylynch8016]

We have booked for next Christmas and new year x

[@fredxxxxx]

I was upgraded to this hotel on my first holiday abroad about 50 years ago 😊

[@AntandGlen]

Oh wow! It probably hadn't been open that long either! Have you visited since?

[@fredxxxxx]

@@AntandGlen No, my one and only time in Benidorm.

[@normanj1975]

Large pump action bottles of shampoo and shower gel in the showers now.

[@TheWrightLifeTravelChannel]

That was a really good review! They should pay you for it!! Very weird paying to use a safe, never heard of that before!?

[@AntandGlen]

Thanks so much! I was a bit nervous because I’d never done a review before and spent ages trying to get it right. The safe surprised me too as well, not sure if it was a Spanish thing as I normally stay with friends when I visit. Great hotel and I would happily stay there again though.

[@jimmydempsey6857]

@@AntandGlen Stayed in the Pueblo , free safe. 👍

[@tonygarforth539]

you cant go on hollidays a lot most hotels charge for safes

[@jimmydempsey6857]

@@tonygarforth539 l went to the Pueblo , safe was free.

[@gillwyatt1917]

Great review! Have you done one for The Presidente? I haven't been to Benidorm before. Thinking of either Presidente or Don Pancho as both sound pretty good 👍🏻 It's quite common for hotels to charge for safes and also air conditioning. Many hotels in Europe don't have a kettle in the room either.

[@janetpalmer7695]

Music is a bit distracting

[@AntandGlen]

Appreciate you watching and thank you for the feedback

[@virginiasutton-dd8nc]

Looks a fab hotel i am going to book for next year 2024 September

[@AntandGlen]

You won’t be disappointed

[@lindamillar2505]

Is it possible to just book for a room and dinner I don't like getting up early when on holiday thanks

[@AntandGlen]

I think so, just call them in advance - the hotel is really accomodating. I know you can 'upgrade' to full board on check in

[@craiglancaster1882]

Just booked a week for October £1750 for 2 from Liverpool

[@AntandGlen]

Jealous! Have you been to the DP before?

[@craiglancaster1882]

⁠Hi. Yes when they had a full refurb some years ago. We were one of the first returning guests. We’ve been staying at the Riviera for the last few years but decided it was time for a change

[@In_Craigs_Eyes]

Nope not having it! I didn't see Madge once?!

[@lizmonaghan3875]
