British man accused of starting Benidorm hotel fire sent to prision: "50 year old British man, charged with setting fire to his fourth floor hotel room in Benidorm last Tuesday, has been sent to prison on remand.

13 people, all British holidaymakers staying at the Ambassador Hotel, had to be treated for smoke inhalation as a consequence of the fire, five of whom are still in the Marina Baixa District Hospital in La Villajoyosa.
