I would like to rent a car at the Meliá hotel in Alicante city, which is the nearest rental car location?
I see you have seen cars and well rates are shown as you can see...just compare. Your desired pick up location is at the location you choose..
You can click on the little map next to the car photo
Also click on <b>Sort by Distance</b> at the top of the page:-<br>

It is next / very close to the hotel
The site says otherwise? It says to go to the Alamo at station.
Did you " Sort by Distance " ?
If you see this, that is <b>Sort by price</b>:-<br>

Sixt is located right at the location you choose / inserted in search machine.
Would I get better cars or prices if I collect the car at the Airport?
At <b>Airport</b> for sure more choice.
All the type you see at the top are available...just scroll down to see more different cars...:-<br>

I checked for you the rates at the Airport, they are almost the same as at the City Location you choose.
