We have just returned from a week at the Don Pepe and found it very disappointing. The hotel itself is nice, with a lovely pool - plenty of room for everyone and nice rooms, but everything else from the the food to especially the service (with the exception of a few staff) was dreadful. Our main gripe was with the... more

My daughter (age 20) and I spent 4 days at the Don Pepe and we were very pleased with the experience. The hotel is in a central location, near public buses to the other towns, directly on the beach and within walking distance to the old town. The hotel in general is very attractive, the rooms were spacious, and the... more

Fine hotel in a good position. We found it very expensive possibly somewhat due to the euro exchange rate and probably due to the high prices!

I have just finished my stay at the hotel along with my family and all i can say is we had a fantasic time. The hotel was luxurious and the food fantasic. All the staff were very friendly and aproachable. I would have to say that you do step back in time a little with regard to the decor and... more

The Gran Melia Don Pepe Hotel, Marbella, Spain is a five star hotel. Though I am not really sure why. It is a decent hotel with decent rooms and okay service. But it does not have the style, flair or sense of specialness that a 5 star hotel should have. This was the 2nd time that I stayed at the... more

Most of the staff were are of mature age.Similar age to most of the guest..I suppose in november in marbella majority of the holiday makers are of retirement age. Basically cant fault the hotel,sure the atmosphere during the holiday season alot better. more
