“Nice hotel”

Reviewed 15 May 2013 NEW

Nice hotel on a very good location, the Old Town is across the street and in front is the beach separated only by promenade. We had a room with a side sea view, which was fine. Breakfast was very good with a large variety of different kind of food. Parking is full during the day, but you can always find... More

“Enjoyable Stay”

Reviewed 14 May 2013

The location is good right next to the old town and right on the beach front, the staff were very attentive and helpful. It is a little tired but nothing to put you off going back. We paid extra for a room with a full sea view and it was well worth it, the view was beautiful.

It is great to hear you appreciate our location and service. In the past winter we did some upgrading to our facilities and we will do so the coming winter, too. The team & I hope you will enjoy the improvements in your next visits. More

“4 Stars - 4th Year in a row Visited”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

This not a boutique hotel but a 4 Star Spanish Hotel, a little dated but spotlessly clean and great staff. After booking directly we had not got a double bed on a high floor. Laura the receptionist, no problem and after 5 minutes everything was sorted. This is what this hotel….great friendly service. All the staff from 2009 are still... More

“Romantic week for two...”

Myself and my wife decided to celebrate our anniversary by spending a week in Marbella. My sister said that the location of the El Fuerte hotel was close to perfect. There are daily filghts from my local airport, Cork to Malaga (2 hours twenty). Marbella is only about 40-50 minutes drive from Malaga's Pablo Picasso airport. The hotel is rated... More

“Which is the best?”

I have read that there is another hotel in Marbella claiming the title of "Best Hotel in Marbella" but for me El Fuerte will always be best. There is always a warm welcome for guests, the service is warm and friendly, the rooms are kept very clean. I know that the hotel is aging well and the sun will shine... More

Thanks for your stay (again!) and for your review. The team & I are looking forward to welcoming you again soon. More

“Beautiful Hotel, bad attitude”

Reviewed 26 April 2013 via mobile

We are unfortunately staying at this hotel in Marbella, Spain. This supposedly four star hotel does not have air conditioning or heating at the same time and our room was uncomfortably hot last night. The whole AC is off and the explanation was that they only have heating during this time of the year. Moreover, the hotel has a cavalier... More

Thank you very much for staying with us and for talking to me. it has been a great pleasure to have had such a renowned doctor amongst us. As I personally explained to you, our central air con system allows to have cool air in the Summer and hot air in the Winter. Average temperatures in Marbella vary from 12ºC/54ºF... More

After 3 holidays spent here, the standard never fails to please us. Family atmosphere, friendly staff and great attention to detail so much so that on the morning of my husbands birthday at the entrance to the dining room for breakfast he was greeted with Good Wishes and two glasses of champagne accompanied our breakfast!! We were absolutely stunned at... More

Thanks for your stay and your review. We are all very happy to know you felt like this during your stay. And yes, the front sea view rooms are the rooms with the best views and generally the rooms with bigger terrace. The team & I look forward to welcoming you soon again. More

“Best of all worlds but a little old fashioned”

Reviewed 8 April 2013

This hotel is ideally situated, on one side you have the beach and the sea and on the other you are in town. In addition, it is opposite an entrance to the old town and its pretty narrow streets and lots of restaurants. We had a very nice room (and bathroom) with a full sea view and the balcony was... More

Thank you very much for your stay and your comments. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed our location and your room. It is so true, as you say, that sea view rooms are very quiet although we are a city hotel in the center of Marbella and at the same time on the beach front. The rooms with... More
