H10 Estepona Palace

Estapona palace in my opinion is not the same standard as other luxe collection hotels we have stayed at. Firstly I must say that the staff we encountered are all wonderful and would be a credit to any hotel, however the food is very disappointing, very repetitive and usually cold. The restaurant is chaotic and needs someone to take overall charge of the service. Shortages like no bowls, no items of cutlery, no milk jugs, some tables set with full complement of cutlery others not, I feel these issues could be remedied by someone overseeing the serving staff and directing operations. It would have been nice if the outside bar areas had been illuminated during the evening with maybe some background music so guests could go outside with a drink as an alternative to being inside in the lounge bar and listening to the evening entertainment which with one exception was pretty poor. The grounds of the hotel are well set out with plenty of sun loungers available throughout the day. The location is good with plenty of buses and taxis available to take you to the marina or on to estapona and back through out the day. We enquired about the Aircon in our room as it was hot during the whole of our stay but we were told it is only switched on in may which was unfortunate. I just feel that with a few changes, it could have been a much better experience.

Early booking is a must , the Privilege pass unlocks some excellent features including the private bar and sun terrace. Rooms are clean , excellent breakfast service , front reception was super helpful when coordinating car hire and taxi bookings. During April 2026 the hotel was very peaceful building up to the busy periods , overall locations is well positioned to bus to Gibraltar or explore the local town.

This was our second visit, having previously stayed in October 2025 on a Privilege package. This time we booked a standard superior room on a B&B basis. Our room, 401, was beautiful and much bigger than the Privilege room we had in October! It had a side sea view and overlooked Gibraltar and an apartment complex with mountain backdrop. The bed was large and the ceiling fan, directly above, kept us cool. The standard of housekeeping was, once again, excellent. The whole hotel is beautifully clean and always smells lovely. Breakfast was excellent- a huge spread, including Cava. Pool area inviting and plenty of sunbeds at this time of year. You collect pool towels from the kiosk, one per person. We hired a car direct from Reception and always found a parking spot directly opposite, free of charge. We didn't pay for parking anywhere we visited, unlike in England where parking is incredibly expensive. We remain impressed by the smooth roads, flower baskets and numerous litter bins in this region of Spain. Once again, an excellent stay and would thoroughly recommend staying at the H10 Estepona Palace. It is far west of the resort and a 45-minute walk into the town. Lots of building work in the centre of the resort as they are building a new central plaza and an underground car park.

Great hotel, everything was perfect; friendly personnel, excellent service, nice food, nice animation program for kids!

Lovely staff. Nice food.Peaceful location.Very good kids camp. Wish the spa opening times were not so rigid. Weather was not ideal, stayed 2nd week of April. Night time entertaiment hit and miss.All in all a very pleasant restful hotel

Wonderful few days spent here over Easter. We upgraded to Privilege last minute for hubby’s Birthday. Our room was spacious and so clean. The cleaners called to top up coffee pods water etc regularly we never ran low. We had a fantastic sized balcony overlooking the sea. I spent my time there rather than by the pool. We were B&B we ate mainly at the Privilege restaurant a lovely selection to choose from and table service for tea/coffee. A lot more choice in the main restaurant but was so busy we opted for the quieter atmosphere. The hotel is quite a step away from main Estapona town and around 15/20 min walk to the Harbour area. We enjoyed the walks, most mornings walking along the sea front very relaxed listening to the sea. We only ate at the Mediterranean chilled lounge. Overlooking the sea we had Tapas (stunning) and cocktails. What a lovely way to spend the evening. We made use of the Privilege lounge frequently enjoying a drink and snacks. We visited the sun terrace once it was a bit small for us we like our space. I couldn’t fault this Hotel the service was friendly we had no issues or problems at all. They treated Hubby on his birthday with chocolate and Cava and a little song from the lady delivering!! I would go back tomorrow I highly recommend you visit.
