5 star hotels in Marbella

Well, we had hoped it would be brilliant....Puente Romano, you were out of this world in every way. From the moment we checked in with Carlos, we felt at home and so welcome. Our 4 year old daughter was greeted with a gorgeous teddy bear and colouring pack , which made her day. Our beautiful sea view room was just perfect, with a huge bathroom and jacuzzi bath. A highlight of our stay was walking through...

A truly magical hotel perfect for couples, families and foodies. The service provided during our stay was amongst the best in the world. The attention to detail is incredible. The choice of restaurants and cuisine within easy walking distance is exceptional. We highly recommend walking through the hotel gardens during the night - wow! 5 star kids club. Buggy service throughout the resort. Private beach...

This was not a destination. I decided to go for a drive on a sunny day, and kept driving until I came to the end of the road. This beautiful place is where the road ended. The views are beautiful, the property is beautiful and service at the restaurant was excellent. Will come back to Spain just to stay here.

Words cannot begin to describe what a fabulous vacation I had at the Puente Romano property in Marbella this Summer. Every restaurant and bar on the property truly understands the meaning of 5 star service. The staff was so friendly and helpful - I cannot wait to come back next year and hopefully see them all again. Special thank you to Francisco who went above and beyond with his assistance and recommendations...

The hotel as a resort is beautiful and has a lot of nice restaurants but be very very very careful with what you bring and leave in the hotel room whether it’s luxury bags or shoes or anything you can’t fit in the safe . In the ten days we were there , three robberies occurred where a lady breaks into the room while the guest are not in , takes specific brand items and leaves . Even though the manager...

The entrance to the hotel in the evenings is extremely busy , but the location can’t be better. The hotel is blocks of 3-4 story buildings . It has a beautiful garden . The car park can be a problem . The hotel reception was not as fancy as expected but the customer service is excellent . The rooms refurbished and has a welcoming atmosphere. I got a garden view and a very quiet room . The only...

I met my husband here in 2001 on a tennis holiday from Surrey. I have since been back with girlfriends and my husband for several holidays and cannot recommend enough! The food is outstanding, staff incredibly courteous and incorporate old fashioned customer service which is incredibly hard to find these days . Staff have been there for years

The good: Staff is super friendly, service is flawless. The Spa is great. The bad: It was recommended to us by a friend. Pictures are deceiving. The building is old. Most it remodeled but it still feels old. Food is terrible. We tried all restaurants and many menu items and the food was simply BAD. The mattress in our room was higher on one side of the bed and it felt like you’d fall off the bed when...

This hotel is beautiful . The only things that spoils the experience is. There are too many steps to go anywhere. If you want to go to the beach it us quite a walk. The food that is served in the Bahia restaurant could be more varied. There is not a good amount of choice. If you don't like fish then you are disappointed.

we had a wonderful stay at this hotel, and I want to express my gratitude, especially to the staff member Sam. The hotel itself was top-notch, with comfortable rooms, an excellent location, and great amenities. However, Sam truly made our stay unforgettable. Her kindness and attentiveness to guests are outstanding. She always went the extra mile to ensure that we felt comfortable and welcomed. Her...

The rooms were old fashioned with dried up pizza crusts on the carpet. The breakfast, lunch at the pool restaurant and garden are phenomenal and lush. Haven’t tried the other restaurants but assume they are good. It’s a hotel which shows its potential, but can’t quite deliver due to the non-corresponding state of the room.

We just came back from Don Carlos, in general all was great. Depends what you expect. The hotel presents themselves like 5 start hotel, however the service and rooms are not 5 star. Territory is very beautiful. Breakfast: 1. Lettuce in the breakfast was not fresh and too much flies (maybe seasonal) 2. Everyone can cut the bread touching it with hands Rooms: Hotel is quite old. Don’t expect to...

I had a wonderful stay at the Marriott Vacation Club in Marbella! Everything was spotlessly clean, and the staff provided excellent attention, making us feel truly welcome. The spa was fantastic, especially the hot pool surrounded by beautiful trees, creating a peaceful atmosphere. Being so close to the sea was a huge bonus, making it easy to enjoy the beach. Highly recommend this resort for a relaxing...

Spent an amazing 7 nights in the resort with family. ideal for young family’s! It literally has everything multiple pools in/outdoor beach on its doorstep playgrounds activities throughout the day to book breakfast buffet and other food options during the day! You will need to rent a car if you want to venture out and its location is also very close to multiple food restaurants. The apartments are...

I’ve been visiting the Marriott Marbella Resort for 20 years, and it remains a beloved destination for our family. Every summer, our kids eagerly anticipate reuniting with friends they’ve made over the years. The resort’s vibrant, family-friendly atmosphere makes it a perfect getaway. In recent years, the service has improved significantly, particularly in handling luggage and room transitions. Previously...

What a beautiful property!! Great access to the ocean plus a large family pool area, adults only pool and traditional indoor pool. The resort offers a great variety of activities for kids through teenage family members.

Well designed resort, where staff work hard and are enthusiastic about helping. Buffet breakfast excellent but otherwise El Med restaurant food quality is average. Major drawback is late check in time of 4pm. Considering check out is 10 am why do they need 6 hours for room turnaround? You may get timeshare push but that is to be expected and you can just say no. On site shop charges lot more for some...

It was overall a great resort and a place to stay for summer vacations ☀️😎. But a funny story happened with me and it was that one of the cleaning staff stole my crocs with many charms on it. So I went to reception asking them to resolve the issue but they just told me that they could send an email to the cleaning manager. They did not even try to look for it 😂. So overall I would say it is a good...

This review is for Abel López Ybarra, the Guest Service Manager. Abel went above and beyond to ensure that our trip to Marbella, Spain was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, he took the time to understand our needs and genuinely cared about making our experience unforgettable. Abel handled every detail with precision, ensuring that every aspect of our stay was perfect. He even...

Stayed in Supreme Room Front Sea View room. Disappointing not worth the €800+ for one night. Room was nice but the bathroom needs complete replacement. It felt cheap, poorly designed and certainly not what we would expect at that price. The sea view was stunning as were the hotel and grounds. The balcony chairs need replacing as very worn. Breakfast was nice. All staff were friendly. Great location...

The service and warmth of the team at Don Pepe can't be beaten which is why I go back year after year. The grounds and cleanliness of the hotel is superb. Also one of the best breakfasts! Unfortunately some of the rooms are tired and need modernising, but the service makes up for this

I cannot compliment the wonderful staff enough to the warm and elevated service they provide every moment of the day. (Special thank you to the team at Audrey, Red Level Lounge, breakfast and pool service) The hotel also provides high quality at every level in every detail, from the ingredients at the breakfast buffet to the room amenities and maintenance if the property. The nearest restaurants...

Outstanding location, clean rooms, great views, excellent food, and wonderful people. Isabel welcomed us and was very kind to our small family. She was great at getting us reservations. Every person was kind and sincerely wanted to help. The sushi restaurant had great views of the sea, with first class sushi. Steak house was spacious with great selection. Awesome filets. Overall this was an incredible...

Great location and friendly staff. Abel the manager looked after our family so well from start to finish. The staff on the Red Level could not have been more helpful especially Patrica, Irene, Laura, and Pepy. A big thank you to Gonzalo and Flores for looking after us at breakfast. Adrian,Raul,and Rafa have your seats ready for you when you arrive at the pool every morning.GREAT SERVICE.

Great Team and Management! Looking forward to visit again. T E S L A Destination Charger works perfectly fine and a lovely location with a clean beach. Special thanks to Ismael for the warm welcome. Everybody was really aLWayS Very professional and kind!

The Great Hotel Guadalpin Banus is a fantastic hotel located on the beach of Puerto Banús where you can rest and enjoy in the spacious rooms and magnificent terraces overlooking the sea, very close to the famous Ocean Club, the beach is full of bars and restaurants where you can You can eat very well, you can take a walk by the sea to San Pedro Alcántara and Marbella, international atmosphere, excellent...

Awesome place. The junior suite was fantastic and well equipped. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Food was excellent. Great location, just a short stroll to the marina. Would definitely recommend this Hotel and looking forward to getting back soon.

Total ridiculousness to pay expensive money for a hotel by the ocean and then they will charge you extra 15€ for a deck chair by the ocean. Stupidity. The hotel is worn down and sewers to old… smelly bathroom. Superior rooms are small. Restaurant with okey breakfast. Elevators; one broken and the second sounded like it would be broken soon. Staff friendly and nice calm area ethics 15 min walk to harbor...

One of the more civilised places near the hellhole that is Puerto Banus. Food reasonably good and reasonably priced.

Really nice hotel, friendly and helpful staff, breakfast is as good as it gets. Only comment is that it is looking like it needs a refresh. Definitely would recommend it.

Just home from a fabulous meal for Noche Buena, I've been coming to this hotel for a lot of years, and can honestly say it's top noche, food, staff, ambiance. Thank you all for making my Christmas.....gracias a todos

Gorgeous hotel. Really clean and rooms are spacious and really comfortable. Staff are excellent. Antonio on reception is so helpful. Courtesy transport to La Cabane beach club which is very luxurious. Highly recommended

Great hotel and amazing pool! All the staff very cordial and professional but Xavi in the restaurant the best! Anti COVID measures very good!

I absolutely loved the hotel, service and luxury feel. The food was delicious (expensive but delicious). La Cabane was out of this world and I hope to be back. Exceeded expectations. I practised my spanish but the staff had excellent English. Weddings every week although I heard and saw nothing. I can see why it's popular to be married there. It would be a dream wedding. Dream location, 100% recommend

3 star hotel disguised as a 5 star hotel. We have just come back from a 2 week stay at the hotel. At first glance, its overwhelming beautiful but, as the days progress you start to notice the cracks ( sometimes literally). Cons: Room was not properly cleaned daily. Toilet paper is one-ply?. Milk used by the hotel is not fresh, all powdered or long life. Pastries at breakfast are exact same as in the...

Great hotel with friendly staff, large clean rooms and an exceptional breakfast. The only downside is the distance to the beach. But they offer a free shuttle service any time.

This hotel will make you feel at home. From juan at the reservation department always willing to work with you with fast replies to your requests, at the front desk the team is extremely customer friendly always with a big smile and eager to greet you, juan and Gabriel are extremely willing to help you. Room service has great food! The pasta and the burger and the steak are delicious. Maria at breakfast...

I stayed at the hotel for three nights, and I loved everything about this hotel. I will be coming back. Staff are amazing and very helpful. The room was clean, and it had everything I needed, including toiletries. The Spa is very nice and worth visiting.

The location is perfect. The breakfast was amazing. All options is there. The stuff was nice all services you want you would find the concierge also is great.

Very high quality of service, nice restaurant/breakfast and relax areas. Room is on highest level. Everything 100% worth to recommend. Thank you!

We had a short get away with my sister - 5 days stay. What a lovely place to relax! We didn’t have the most expensive room in the hotel, so I can judge only based on my experience but it had everything you would want - very comfortable bed, it was spacious, clean with a beautiful view on the mountain range, kettle and a good quality coffee machine in the room. The bathroom was spacious and in general...

Room was of good standard; however bed was very hard. Guests were very noisy past 01:00 hours..after alerting reception security were unable to stop the noise, this occured every night during our 3 day stay. The gym had limited machines and was of very poor standard. Furthermore, the spa is not included in the price - they charge 25 euro per use. The breakfast buffet was excellent.

Visiting Club Hotel Marbella was an experience I will cherish forever—a truly unforgettable getaway that felt like stepping into a dream. From the moment I arrived, the serene ambiance and warm hospitality made me feel like I was in paradise.

This resort offered a fantastic high quality stay in an amazing garden of Eden type setting. While the resort is quite spread out this is typical of resorts in this area. The buildings are set in a very peaceful and perfectly cared for garden type setting. While in the resort you quickly forget the busy road directly outside the gate and get transported into a whole different environment. This location...

The Marbella Club is a timeless gem on the Costa del Sol, offering exceptional service and luxurious accommodations. The staff’s warm hospitality ensures a memorable stay, while the beautifully appointed rooms provide comfort and elegance. With its mild climate, the resort is an ideal destination year-round, allowing guests to enjoy its stunning beachfront location and lush gardens in any season.

I have stayed at many hotels the world over, and have lived in the area for a very long time, staying and dining at this hotel whenever the occasion presents itself, and I can say comfortably that this is my favourite hotel. It doesn't boast fifty swimming pools or eighty Michelin star restaurants, it doesn't have golden night clubs or restaurants serving steaks with gold on top of them. To some, this...

incredible! we had an amazing time with my family, it was magical! the staff, the hotel and property were beyond what I was expecting! im so excited to go back one ! the breakfast was my favourite part, sitting in the beautiful terrasse, having delicious food with my loved ones, what more can we ask for! thank you for such a memorable stay!

We were there over the weekend to celebrate St. John's Eve as a family. The hotel stands out as a whole for its elegance, nature and, best of all, all its people who make you feel at home and surrounded by family. Thank you.

What a great hotel , I can't say enough. The staff were unbelievably nice and helpful. Special thanks to Isabel with her great hospitality in the restaurant. Thank you for making our vacation a great memory .

We had the pleasure of staying in this lovely hotel resort for two weeks during the summer. We absolutely loved the pool area, staff and location. As first timers to Spain for a summer holiday we were apprehensive. We were nervous regarding our special dietary needs which we pre-cooked and brought to the hotel. They were understanding and accommodative from the very start. Unfortunately, early on into...

Just back from an amazing stay at The Westin...cannot praise it enough...from check-in on first day to packing golf bags on the last day the service was exceptional. Beautiful hotel and wonderful friendly staff. The golf courses were beautiful...maybe a little more course maintenance would be nice...but the facilities were wonderful. Golf club restaurant a bit pricey, but the service made up for it

Really excellent experience at this resort. The staff is out of this world. Alejandro was our favorite staff member. He gave us the best recommendations in the area and was so so attentive. Every staff member was excellent and very accommodating. The rooms are a bit worn for a 5 star hotel. We had a missing light bulb on our balcony. Paint was a bit stuffy. Not the best room I've been in but had great...

Overall a good stay at the Westin La Quinta. It’s a bit north of Marbella, so having a car is handy, but it’s a peaceful spot away from the hustle. The decor is quite corporate, but the hotel has everything you need. It’s also a great venue for events, with lots of open space. The La Quinta golf course was fun and spacious, with well-kept greens and just enough challenge. Their Heavenly Spa was a...

Great hotel, food amazing and staff service is exceptional. 3 x 9 holes golf course at a very high standard. Greens and fairways in exceptional conditions. Close to Marbella town centre as well.

We stayed here for 8 nights in a family room. It was amazing to be upgraded after one day. (thank you Eva) The rooms are really spacious and clean! However, we want to confirm that this hotel is not at the beach and that for older kids (from 7 years) not the best option. The kids club has mainly only games for very small kids and the beach is too far (on a public road) to send the kids to the beach...

This gem of a hotel sits on a very nice property with plenty of outdoor relaxation (pools) and food options. The beach club is conveniently locate and provides a full-service spa, a nice restaurant/bar, and an awesome infinity pool. The service is impeccable -- attentive and always very pleasant. The rooms are tastefully decorated and very spacious; also well equipped with espresso maker and tea kettle...

The hotel is beautiful with many seating areas and lush gardens. Breakfast is so nice with many varieties and a great view of the sea. Staff goes out of their way to make things extra special. Special mentions: Eva Campos, Guest Services, is so helpful and kind. She always tended to me and helped me set up tennis classes. Manuel at check in always checked to see how my day was going. The front desk...

I am very happy with this hotel. It has beautiful view and gardens. We stayed 5 days, the rooms were cleaned many times during the day. Spacious bed and bathroom with very comfortable mattresses. Big selection of breakfast food. We really enjoyed our time there. The location of the hotel is just 2 minutes from the beach. I will defenitely come back again.

If you're seeking a luxurious retreat that surpasses the experience offered by standard five-star hotels, then look no further than the Beach Club Estrella Del Mar. This exclusive beach club provides a remarkable experience that is sure to leave an indelible impression. As soon as you arrive, you'll be greeted by a team of consummate professionals who are dedicated to ensuring your stay is nothing...

Very lovely hotel. Ordering a tbone steak was 78eur! Bit of a shock when we got the bill. More expensive than London.

i really liked the design, restaurant/bar the location did not work for me as a break but fine as i was on business. the road outside is quite noisy. the rooms were a little cramped but still really nice design (maybe too much brown). lots of nice high tech features and v good wifi. the fillet steak was unreal and will definitely come back to eat here again.

OK… so this place is trying very hard to be really cool and for the most part it’s succeeding. The location isn’t great, it’s right next to the main road and the traffic noise is unavoidable in the restaurant (even with the loud house music pumping out) but the rooms themselves are quiet. The pool areas are great with good sun beds and a chilled out ambience, and the outdoor gym is well equipped...

Room and pool were great. Houskeeping was exceptional. However service at pool was very slow (1hr for food most days) and food was generally average 3/5 in restaurant. The main road is also quite noisy all day if you have a room overlooking it.

We went for lunch and the food is excellent, but expensive. Personally I find it worth the price. Service is friendly and professional and I LOVE that music is very soft in the background so one can have a normal conversation. Also, the spacing of the table allows for sufficient privacy. I am definitely coming again as soon as possible!!

It was our second stay at Nobu Marbella, which we chose to celebrate our engagement, and it was confirmed as simply the best place on earth! From the incredible location, the amazing gastronomic experiences, fabulous room, and impeccable service that literally every staff member provides to make your moments to remember, it is really like stepping into a different dimension, which shines among any...

Fantastic hotel that has an upscale tropical resort feel. We were upgraded for our anniversary and the hotel was extremely helpful with reservations and everything we could need. All of the grounds are beautifully maintained and it is definitely the most happening place in Marbella. I would 100% recommend to anyone who is looking for a mix of relaxation and fun, lively nights out at excellent restaurants...

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Nobu Hotel Marbella in December, and I can confidently say it was one of the best travel experiences I've ever had! December is truly an ideal time to visit, with lovely temperatures that make exploring the area enjoyable without the massive summer crowds. The hotel itself is a stunning blend of contemporary luxury and vibrant design, perfectly reflecting...

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Nobu Hotel in Marbella, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff was welcoming and attentive, ensuring a seamless check-in process. The room exceeded our expectations with its elegant decor and luxurious amenities, providing a perfect blend of comfort and style. The hotel's location is ideal, offering easy access to...

Nobu Hotel Marbella offers an unforgettable experience with its top-notch service, breathtaking views, and luxurious amenities. From the moment you arrive, the attentive staff ensures your every need is met. The pool area is a paradise, perfect for unwinding and soaking in the Spanish sun. The culinary delights served at the hotel are a true delight, and the fresh drinks add to the indulgence. As night...

I love this hotel! It’s a luxury accommodation. The place was clean, service was great. Everyone was smiling and people treated me really well. Even the smell was amazing. Highly recommended!
