I have read the other reviews and they are mostly accruate, The hotel is right on the seafront with direct access to the promonade. It is a few minutes walk to the restaurants and bars on the sea front and also inland and into the old town. I don't think there is a better location in Marbella. The hotel is... more

Very good Location near the Beach of Marbella and not far from historic CityCentre. Very Quiet Location. Very Easy Equiped Rooms. But at that Rate really Worth it. But forget the breakfast. No WiFi, but PCs in the Lobby that can be used. more

Book a seaview room or at least a side sea view; it is more expensive but worth it.You can have a drink on your balcony overlooking the gardens and the sea. The sea is 20 metres from the hotel.It could not be better positioned. There is a rush with peope reserving loungers BEFORE breakfast( and no they are not all... more

My wife & I took a weeks break here from 19th September. The location is just great. Access to the 'Promonade' is directly from the Hotel grounds. The Old Town and Plaza de los Naranja are a short walk away. Overall the Hotel is clean and well looked after. On arrival reception was quite good. Over the week some inconsistancies... more

Stayed there as part of our honeymoon. Hotel is nicely located in the heart of Marbella with direct access to the beach. Good: location, cleaniness Bad: hidden charges - safe box in the room 3eur/day, parking 10eur/day, no free wifi except for a tiny area around the bar, small rooms, a "terrasse" is nothing but a simple balcony. Toilet was... more

The El Fuerte is a lucky hotel. It is lucky in its location, in its dedicated staff and in its owners; although they own a string of other hotels, one feels that this on is their favourite; the jewel in the crown. Each time we talked with the desk clerk, there was a sense of engagement and desire to help.... more

I read other reviews and agree with most so won't just repeat all what has been said before. However, we must have been lucky on arrival because we were attended to immediately and in our room within 10 minutes. We had a side sea view and although the balcony was large enough with 2 chairs, our side got the sun... more

We stayed at El Fuerte, Marebella and just loved it. We booked a room with a side seaview but we were upgraded to an ocean view room when we checked in. The room was really beautifully appointed, with lovely colors, elegant woods and pretty architectural details. The beddings were soft and silky, and the bed comfortable. It was a plus... more

We spent 10 days in el fuerte and this was our 7th trip, as per usual everything was perfect, we have reccommended this hotel to many friends who have thought the same! In fact we were like travel agents for the hotel. However even been members of the 'Club' we went to book again for October and the same deal... more
