El Fuerte, originally built in 1957 is an iconic landmark hotel in the heart of Marbella. Recently upgraded to a five-star the El Fuerte seamlessly blends casual luxury with an exclusive and inviting atmosphere.

In its transformation to a modern luxury hotel the El Fuerte has maintained its air of welcoming charm and relaxation for which it is renowned.

Situated on the beachfront of Marbella’s city centre, it offers breathtaking sea-views along the promenade and across the Mediterranean and is just a five-minute walk from the Plaza de Los Naranjos in the Old Town.

The hotel’s warm Mediterranean character is reflected in its classic interior design that offers guests timeless quality, designed by prestigious Chilean designer Jaime Beriestain’s studio, first-class gastronomy and professional service that puts the finest details first.

Privileged location just in the centre of town

Located just 5 minutes from the centre of Marbella’s old town and a stone’s throw from a wide range of restaurants and shops, El Fuerte Marbella offers guests a highly convenient location where the most important attractions are nearby without giving up the peaceful and calm atmosphere of an urban beach hotel featuring spacious communal areas and the highest quality service dedicated to those guests who seek the ultimate comfortable luxury to look after their health, beauty and wellness.
