Hotel El Fuerte has stood on the seafront in the heart of Marbella since the 1950s, on the site of an old fort. Its rooms were redesigned by the Chilean designer Jaime Beriestain, and it has a Spa by Clarins and the Edge rooftop with chef Paco Pérez. Its gardens open onto the Paseo Marítimo, and the Old Town is a few minutes’ walk away.
