Kimpton, part of IHG Hotels & Resorts’ exclusive portfolio of luxury lifestyle hotels, is thrilled to announce the grand opening of the Kimpton Los Monteros Marbella. Originally opened in 1962, Los Monteros was the first hotel in Spain to receive a Michelin star. Following an extensive renovation, the brand has reinvented its legacy, blending its historic grandeur with contemporary luxury and a relaxed atmosphere, offering guests unique culinary, wellness, and design experiences.
Located in the most exclusive area of Marbella, just 500 meters from the Mediterranean Sea, the resort features 195 elegantly designed rooms, including 60 suites, many of which offer spacious terraces and sea views. The transformation to Kimpton Los Monteros, which integrates historical and contemporary elements, was undertaken by El Equipo Creativo, a studio known for its more than 70 international awards. The hotel reflects Marbella’s rich cultural heritage, utilizing geometric patterns, terracotta tiles, and organic curves to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Furthermore, Kimpton Los Monteros aims to be the ideal destination for high-level events and meetings, offering versatile gardens and meeting rooms, including a grand ballroom with capacity for 250 guests, a panoramic rooftop, and an exclusive beach club. As is customary in Kimpton hotels, guests will enjoy perks such as morning coffee and tea service, the Kimpton Social Hour, and pet-friendly policies.
“The opening of Kimpton Los Monteros in Marbella marks the beginning of a new era in the city. We bring fresh and vibrant energy, merging the legacy of Los Monteros with the unique essence of Kimpton.” — Merry Antoja, General Manager of the hotel.
An Unmatched Culinary Experience
The heart of the hotel lies in its culinary offerings, led by Michelin-starred chef José Carlos García, who will serve as the Executive Chef of the resort. Guests and visitors will be delighted with various options, including a main restaurant, a rooftop bar, a lounge bar, a pool bar, and a beach club. The main restaurant, Jara, offers Mediterranean cuisine that pays homage to Andalusian products, while Escondido Rooftop showcases Mexican cuisine in a casual setting with spectacular views.
Additionally, the Azul Lounge Bar offers specialty coffee and live music, while the Costa Club Pool Bar becomes the hotel’s meeting point, blending retro glamour with a relaxed lifestyle. There will also be a Rachel’s Eco Love corner, where healthy and sustainable breakfasts will be available.
Wellness and Reconnection
The resort also focuses on wellness, providing a variety of active leisure options. Guests can participate in daily yoga and pilates classes, enjoy an outdoor gym, and gain exclusive access to the best golf courses in the area. The hotel will soon open its Spa by Maison CODAGE Paris, which will offer personalized treatments and a broad water area.
