Hotel Termas | Balneario de Archena

Hotel Termas is the main hotel of the Balneario de Archena complex, a four-star property built in the mid-19th century and dressed in neo-Nazari style corridors, a central dome and interior patios where arabesque plasterwork catches the light. A Roman tombstone from the late 1st century and a fountain modeled on the Patio de los Leones at the Alhambra sit near the entrance to the thermal galleries, which run directly beneath the building.

Those galleries connect to the SPA Piscinas Termales, with indoor and outdoor thermal pools, and to the Circuito Termal Balnea, which adds saunas, salt pools, aromatic essence rooms and an igloo. A separate Beauty center handles hairdressing and facial or body treatments. The hotel itself has 65 non-smoking rooms, from junior suites to classic doubles, all with room service, set in the Valle de Ricote near the Segura river.

Access doesn't require an overnight stay: day passes are available alongside hotel bookings. Staff speak Spanish, English, Russian, French and German. Parking costs 8€ per day and vehicle, dropping to 6€ per day for stays over four days, and the upper level has electric vehicle chargers.

Beyond the thermal circuits, the complex runs its own activity program — aquagym, hiking, billiards, petanca, a children's Miniclub on weekends and holidays, plus outside excursions like horseback riding, kayaking the Segura, hot-air balloon rides and wine routes through Jumilla, Yecla and Bullas. Dining spans an à la carte room, a buffet hall, a minimalist Restaurante del Agua and a garden-set Bar Casino.
