Hotel Claude Marbella

Staying at Hotel Claude Marbella felt like stepping into a little hidden gem in the heart of the Old Town. From the very first moment, the staff made us feel so welcome and cared for, waiting for us with a smile (and a drink), even though we arrived after midnight. They had already arranged our transfer from Málaga airport, so our driver was waiting for us when we landed, which was such a relief after a late flight! The hotel itself is full of soul, as it is a beautifully restored 17th century building. It is located right in Marbella Old Town, with Plaza Santo Cristo just around the corner (so the location honestly couldn’t be better). The lobby is cozy, with a library, a fireplace and beautiful modern artwork created exclusively for the hotel. We also loved the honesty bar concept. Each room is inspired by a different region of Spain. Our room, Marismas, was stunning. Everything, from the colours to the furniture, reflected the flora and fauna of the Marismas ecosystem, found in Doñana National Park, in the small village of El Rocio (loved the fact that the bathroom door had details of the inspiration). The room exceeded our expectations, from the comfy bed and complimentary minibar, to unique touches like exfoliating body pads and pyjamas for each guest, and even modern accents like touchscreen panels by the bed to control lights and curtains. Another highlight was the housekeeping – twice a day!!! Breakfast on the amazing terrace was excellent and included coffee, juices, fresh fruit platters, pastries, yogurt and a variety of toasts (we tried most of them and they were all delicious). The staff was always ready with recommendations on where to eat, what to see, and what to do in Marbella and beyond. The manager even came by at breakfast to ask us personally how our stay was going and if there was anything to improve – which honestly made us feel truly valued as guests. But the truth is, we had nothing but praise. We left with wonderful memories and with the certainty that this is where we’ll return whenever we come back to Marbella.

Incredible hotel. Great location in Old Town. Tasteful design and phenomenal service. I can't recommend this hotel enough.

Excellent hotel in a great location in the old town of Malaga. Very quiet. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. The hotel is a boutique style with unique decoration. The roof terrace is a great place to chill out during the day and evening with glass of wine. It only has seven rooms so it has a very individual approach to guests. The breakfast is great. Highly recommended.

Highly recommended , clean , unique crew, quality breakfast, fabulous for couples and families, u will never feel used or they they are trying to over sell you or take advantage, generous We will repeat

My husband and I have done quite a bit of traveling and this hotel definitely was one of the very best. The hotel is beautiful, the breakfast is excellent, every space is spotless and the people could not be more attentive. I would come back in a heartbeat!

We spent 3 nights at Hotel Claude and every aspect of our experience was fabulous. The staff were very attentive and helpful. Because the property only has 7 rooms the staff know all guests by name and they greet you by name every time they see you. The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated. The morning rooftop breakfast is wonderful with only 4 tables all well spaced so very private. The hotel location is right in the midst of Old Town so very close to many restaurants, bars and shops. The walk to the water front is only 10 minutes so very convenient. We will definitely stay there again the next time we are in Marbella. If you are looking for a very quiet and intimate hotel in Marbella this is definitely the place for you.
