    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here at the IPV Palace Hotel. The room was very comfortable with a great view of the sea. Superb choices of food and drink at breakfast and the swimming pool is fantastic. The sunbeds were plentiful but could have been more comfortable. It's about a 20 minute walk into the town centre along the sea front. All in all, this hotel is a great place to stay and I would definitely recommend it.

    We just returned from an 11 night stay at the IPV Palace. Lovely grand entrance hall and a nice welcome. The room was spacious and very clean with a nice big shower. Fresh towels everyday along with fresh bedding. We stayed bed and breakfast only and was impressed with the selection. The waiting staff weren’t particularly warm or welcoming but they worked seamlessly as a team and for such a large restaurant they got the job done. We had a bit of a mouldy pastry situation but the staff we’re very apologetic. Our only issue was the amount of dog poo surrounding the hotel. The paths were literally peppered in dog poo. Not the hotels fault but there was quite a lot of dog poo outside the main entrance for some time. Overall a good stay, just watch your step!

    If you're looking for a luxurious stay in Fuengirola, look no further than the IPV Hotel and Palace. From start to finish, our experience at this hotel was exceptional. The facilities are outstanding, and the pool area is simply breathtaking. The beautiful pool overlooks the sea and is the perfect place to unwind and soak up the sun. We loved spending our afternoons lounging on the comfortable sunbeds, relaxing and taking in the stunning views. But what really made our stay special was the incredible staff. They were so accommodating and went out of their way to make us feel at home. Nothing was too much trouble, and they were always on hand to help with anything we needed. The breakfast at the hotel was a real highlight. There was a large spread to choose from, with something to suit every taste. But what really impressed us was the master chef who took multiple different egg orders and delivered perfectly every time. It was clear that the hotel takes pride in its food, and it really showed. And speaking of food, we have to mention the Champagne breakfast and bottle of bubbles that the hotel generously provided for my partner Pamela's 30th birthday (thank you Jacqueline from Guest Services!). It was such a lovely touch and made our stay even more special. The hotel also recommended Olivia's La Cala for Pamela's birthday evening, and we were blown away by the entertainment. The show set menu featuring Arg was a bit pricey at 85 euro, but it was worth every penny. The dancers were incredible, and Arg's singing was phenomenal. It was a night we'll never forget. Overall, we couldn't fault our stay at the IPV Hotel and Palace. It truly deserves a 5-star rating, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious stay in Fuengirola. Thank you to all the staff for making our stay so memorable. We can't wait to come back!

    I stayed here for the first time and the stay was sort of OK, but the hotel oozes of charter travel, it has endless corridors but the and a rather good buffet. The hotel is situated almost on the beach which is superb. The rooms are spacious and clean and offers excellent views. The restaurant is brilliant with excellent buffets both at breakfast and for dinner. I would stay again if it wasn’t for a rather unpleasant experience. The lift was stuck and the dragged me out from a tiny opening. Now in hindsight it would have killed me if the lift moved. This incident and the poor management of it cost this place two stars. The hotel also lacks the option to get water from a vending machine and there is no way of getting water a night.

    Lovely Hotel, very relaxing right next to the Beach. Free parking which is always a blessing. Short walk into Fuengirola with loads of shops and Chirungito's with lovely food. Staff lovely and very helpful 😊

    Fabulous Hotel, have stayed there before and will certainly stay again. Everything about the hotel is faultless from the service to the food to the amenities. Lovely pool and right on the beach. Highly recommend.

    Arrived for a week’s stay at this huge hotel, IPV Palace in Fuengirola. Immaculately clean, professionally run and delicious breakfast with a wide variety of food. We had a fabulous stay here especially in our sea view room, which was meticulously looked after by housekeeping. My only wish was that they supplied complimentary kettle, tea, coffee and milk daily in the rooms. But I can’t drop a star because of this. Overall, excellent and yes I would come back in a heartbeat.

    Really enjoyable. Really pretty lobby and the food in the hotel is very tasty. Nice swimming pool and easy access to the public beach. We found the service, especially those at the Recepción, to be very helpful and nice. Once you get a grasp on how the elevators are separated for the 3 different branches of the hotel, you are good. It is important to Not compare it to a hotel in the USA, as things are done simply differently in Spain. We will definitely be coming back.

    Terrific! Right by the sea at the quiet end of the strip. Rooms are a good size with sea view and balcony. Staff were great and helpful if anything needed doing. Breakfast buffet was so well stocked with enough food to last right through until evening.

    Quite disappointed with the hotel as a whole. Reception staff not overly friendly, couldn't find our room, a lot of warm breakfast food was cold, spa needs serious update for a "Spa hotel". Definitely not worth the money. Positive points, the view from the room, cleanliness of room, waiting on staff, massage and spa staff were amazing, best massage ever! Compared to Barcelo, very old fashioned hotel.

    From check-in to checkout, everything was fantastic. The receptionists were polite, helpful and professional. The breakfast buffet was varied and fresh and the poolside areas were refreshing. The saunas and jacuzzi in the spa were relaxing as were the morning strolls on the beach. This is definitely a hotel you won’t want to miss!

    Excellent location, full breakfast buffet with made to order omelettes, anything you could possible want for breakfast. Friendly staff, clean premises. The only complaint we have is the soundproofing of the rooms. We could hear every word our neighbours were saying as well as which TV programme they were watching. We had an excellent stay.

    We use the spa here and it's excellent part of the spa has closed for. More than 3 months finely all open. One complaint the towel I was given I think it had been through the shredder. For such a class hotel was disgusting

    Loved staying here at the end of November the hotel is elegant and well kept with beautiful etiquette from the main entrance, to the reception and into the halls. The double room was immaculate and housekeeping was very good. Beautiful view from the balcony and weather was great which made it better. Restaurant in the hotel is fantastic nice healthy selections of food, fruit and vegetables. Pool is excellent and right beside the beach which is so nice will most definitely be visiting again 100/ out of 100!!

    Good resort. Good catering service with friendly waiters. The excellent selection of food for breakfast and dinner. Very good size en-suites rooms in the building Casares. The top floors have better views of the sea and pool area but away from the noises. NEGATIVES: gym time is ridiculous as only opens from 10am & closes in the middle of afternoon. So you cannot exercise before breakfast. There’s a separate door for the gym area from the SPA but they still refuse access. Manager said to workout in the beach. Also, the male receptionist could be friendly for a better welcome.

    My fiancée and I stayed at this hotel for a wedding and were thoroughly satisfied. The hotel was clean, the staff was friendly and accommodating, the views were beautiful, and the amenities were great. They did an excellent job with all aspects of the wedding. The food, the decorations, the drinks, the service, and the overall experience was memorable. We woke up every morning looking forward to their delicious and extensive breakfast buffet. We liked Fuengirola so much that we even talked about moving to Spain. We would definitely stay here again.

    This was my first time abroad and this hotel was amazing. I've got OCD and it was sooo clean. A massive thank you to the cleaning staff for that. All the staff were very friendly. Everything was very detailed like the decor and statues etc. Thank you for making my first time at your hotel stress free and relaxed. Will definitely be back again.

    We have announced 3 people are coming - all adults and I communicated with the hotel half a year in advance that we need three proper beds and yet one of the beds is of very bad quality like sleeping on a plastic bag and we even only had 2 towels and 2 glasses! Very bad experience!

    Enjoyed our stay room was great. Very helpful team and overall food was excellent. Only downside was lack of clarity on Spa facilities and things to do.

  • 5/5 Tina R. 1 year ago on Google
    Our favourite hotel in this part of the Costa Del Sol. Beautiful setting, right on the beach, with incredible restaurants and very comfortable beds .... the only downside ... and it's a very minimal one ... is that the WiFi is very poor!! Will be back many, many more times 🙏👌🙏

  • 4/5 Anne J. 11 months ago on Google
    Great staff, food and super clean, amazing location. Only issue was the Spa which was very smelly (drains?) Was not a spa you would want to use, only an indoor poor & jacuzzi, treatment rooms down the stairs which was smelliest.

    We stayed for 2 nights and our room is huge with nice view of the beach. We have a complimentary spa and we enjoyed it. Jacqueline guest service manager made an effort to leave a wine and chocolates in our room for my birthday. The staff are all friendly and approachable.We will surely come back again.

    Excellent stay! I did not realise that animation is so great in the hotel! Every night was a different show like Flamenco or Elvis Presley tribute accompanied by two wonderful ladies, Maria and Tamara! During the day they were organising various activities by the swimming pool. Absolutely amazing, kind with a real heart and passion for dealing with people and delivering a great experience. Breakfast was also excellent with a glass of posecco and freshly made juices. Overall food was very good in the restaurant at reasonable price, especially roasted chicken with thyme and potatoes - absolutely delicious. Thank you for making my Mum's and my stay so special ❤️

  • 5/5 Nicole A. 1 year ago on Google
    We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel. The location was ideal for us because it is just a few steps from the beach. The service was great and the staff were so accommodating. There was entertainment during the day and evening so it was great for all ages. We had brought our kids and they had a blast. We recommend this hotel 100%!!

  • 5/5 Trish A. 1 year ago on Google
    I have given this hotel 5* as it is absolutely excellent! This is my 4th time staying here and I wouldn’t go anywhere else! The hotel itself is luxurious, staff are so friendly and can’t do enough for you. Food, entertainment and rooms are again excellent! Plenty room, drawers etc. The maid’s really know how to clean the rooms, and you never run out of anything! Beds are so comfortable too. The 2 reps Tamara and Maria are so good and attentive and get to know everyone! They are perfect at what they do and work so hard! I loved joining in the activities as it was such fun. But your not forced to join! The hotel itself is very relaxing and you can always get a sun bed (no rushing in the morning). I would highly recommend this if your looking for a 5*. Go try it if you haven’t already!!!

    We spent a weekend unfortunately in this not 4* star but *2 hotel ( who rates these) to be told that the spa closes at 2pm on a saturday YES 2pm on a weekend were guests paid allot of euros for a spa experience hotel.Also we reported that a sock we seen for 2 whole days was visible beside the entrance to their lift beggars belief.Other nonsense was the request to pay €2 per day for a safe yes €2. Wont be back if I'm honest

    Complete not for me. It was a wrong pick 😕 the worst is that I was looking for the place with the carpark unfortunately hotel carpark is not enough spaces for the guests.

  • 5/5 Kenan S. 2 years ago on Google

    Very nice hotel, the food is excellent, the service is excellent, the cleaningles is excellent, the location is excellent. The rooms are a bit outdated and need new amenities, but in general they're fine. I'd recommend this place!

  • 4/5 Jure �. 2 years ago on Google
    This is nice hotel situated next to the beach but also featuring nice pool area. What bothers a bit are outdated pool beds and chairs. Rooms are big and well equipped. Also bathroom is nice and comfortable Beach bar/restaurant as well as breakfast/dinner restaurant are OK, serving good food. Especially breakfast is a +. For me it was relaxing stay for weekend.

  • 5/5 Thalita R. 2 years ago on Google
    Great hotel and facilities, beachfront with an amazing view. The staff is really nice and we would like to give a big shout out to Marco in the restaurant. Marco was so lovely and helpful, made great suggestions and always in the best mood. A great face to see in the mornings.
