Stylish and well-equipped luxury hotel next to the beach and close to the beautiful old town. Our room (junior suite sea view selected) was very comfortable with separate bath and shower, nice products and great views of the sea. There was a minor problem with the bathroom but we were quickly changed to a similar room type on the same floor. The spa area was relaxing and well-kept, and the excellent selected lounge served drinks and snacks throughout the day. The breakfasts were delicious with a huge range of choice. The restaurant staff, selected lounge staff and room attendants were very welcoming and efficient. There were restaurants and pools as well as a gym, spa and even an art gallery area. Fantastic stay. Thank you very much.

Junior suite was tastefully decorated and well equipped (as should be for a 5 ***** ) with every single light or lamp that is dimmable ! Somebody has been thinking ! Too many hotels have bad lighting, no atmosphere or neon bulbs (really?). The balcony had amazing frontal sea view, a comfortable sofa set and a jacuzzi. The bathroom was also very enjoyable and had perfect lighting. The combination of use of space, furniture and lighting is actually just perfect. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Calling the reception was another thing: when dealing it, the phone would start to ring in the toilet lol :-)) That was a little issue they didn’t seem to be able to solve but didn’t bother us. If I had to say one thing: get some quality comfortable toilet paper. It’s way below par for a 5 star. The entire hotel has been beautifully renovated. There is nothing bad to mention really. The lounge area was excellent too. Food, drinks and staff were great. Some of the guests don’t belong there as they leave a total mess and there were even broken glasses on the floor once, totally disrespecting other guests and staff. Unfortunately wannabes and new money make out a part of nowadays Marbella. Money doesn’t buy class. We luckily also met some really nice people at the hotel though. Breakfast is great and the separate areas, inside or outside, make it feel even more enjoyable. Again, also here, all staff is amazing ! All in all, it’s a great hotel.

Beautiful hotel throughout, spacious room. Service at reception and concierge was fabulous. However, waiting staff at the Levante needs better training. Tend to ignore people waiting for tables until they are spoken to. We booked a specific table for dinner, but when we came they had given it to someone else. The same waiter who booked it was there, not a word from him. They also delivered another table’s order to ours . almost blamed us for saying we didn’t order it . There doesn’t seem to be one head waiter, it looked quite chaotic. At breakfast, a waiter showed us to our table and promptly left, without informing us what to do, ie, table service, buffet? No one took our beverage order until we had to catch a waiter’s eye. Breakfast however was very nice indeed with so much variety and very fresh. Beautiful pools, plenty of sun beds, amazing view!

Staff asked if I had any complaints. I usually ALWAYS have a least one thing to complain about. But, with this place I really couldn't think of one thing that I didn't like. I took me a good 2 minutes to come up with at least one thing that I didn't like. And, that was their chocolate cake. So, out of everything if the only thing I won't like about my stay is the chocolate cake... then I am really staying at a 5 star. Also, this hotel is SUPER CLEAN and you can smell how could it is before you even enter the hotel.

A fabulous hotel. Great location overlooking the beach & only a 5 minute walk into Marbella Old Town. Breakfasts were excellent with a wide variety of options. All the staff we encountered were helpful, friendly & professional.

Staying at El Fuerte Marbella was an amazing experience! The hotel is right by the sea, so we enjoyed refreshing swims in the ocean as well as relaxing moments in the rooftop pool.Our room was comfortable and had a lovely view of the sea. There are plenty of dining options, but the rooftop restaurant, Edge, was absolutely stunning—perfect for a special dinner with breathtaking views. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, always ready to help and make our stay even more enjoyable.

This hotel far exceeded my expectations. The location absolutely cannot be beat. It is right next to the old town but on the promenade (the boardwalk) right on the beach with lovely restaurants. The breakfast was also the best out of any hotel I have stayed at anywhere. The breakfast buffet was absolutely amazing. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel and would never stay anywhere else if I went back to Marbella.

We really enjoyed our 9 night stay at the Fuerte, staff were very nice (a special thank you to Georges for being so kind and helpful to us), we were always made to feel welcome, from the restaurant staff to the attendants at the front door. Breakfast buffet was wonderful and the hotel is very conveniently located. The only let down was the beach in front of the hotel, once you are in the water, the ocean floor has large rocks that make it a real challenge. There was also a lot of seaweed the week we were there, I know it’s not something the hotel can control, but it was a damper on our otherwise great week.

Beautiful hotel . We had a wonderful stay. Staff excellent and reception highly efficient . Great food available for lunch and the breakfast buffet is fabulous with everything you could possibly want .Need to be careful regarding room choice / allocation as some rooms look away from the property with a disappointing view of neighbouring apartments and waste area . Also some partial sea view room have a huge tree mostly blocking the wonderful view . My room was quickly swapped to a fantastic alternative with minimal inconvenience. I would highly recommend this hotel - also 5 minute walk to the Old Town which is very convenient .

Because of the massive power outage, our train from Madrid to Malaga was stranded for overnight, we had to hire tax driving to Marbella the next day. We missed the first night of our two days stay. But the hotel people said they didn’t handle the refunds and asked me to make request through agency. Yet the contact person (Mae) told me it depends on the hotel… seems they were kicking the ball?

A beautiful modern beachfront hotel just a 5 min stroll away from Marbella old town. Minor hiccups: at check in they said we’d have complimentary daily half liter water, the next day they said this was just a one off for the first day, then the day after they changed that again. The breakfast buffet is great, but the ham they call “iberico de bellota” is clearly “Serrano” (much cheaper) instead, based on color, texture, lack of marbling, flavor etc
