IHG fills luxury gap in Marbella with Kimpton’s third Spanish signing

IHG Hotels & Resorts, one of the world’s leading hospitality companies, is proud to announce the signing of Kimpton Los Monteros Marbella – the latest milestone in its rapid European growth.

The agreement, revealed at this month’s International Hospitality Investment Forum (IHIF) conference in Berlin, marks the third Spanish signing for the Luxury & Lifestyle brand, following Kimpton Vividora Barcelona and Kimpton Aysla Mallorca.

Kimpton Los Monteros Marbella will provide visitors with an idyllic retreat in the foothills of the Sierra Blanca mountain range between Malaga and the Strait of Gibraltar on the world-famous “Costa del Sol”. Before opening its doors, it will undergo a full refurbishment to transform it from the former The Hotel Los Monteros – Spa & Golf Resort Marbella which has been closed since late 2022.

The 178-key hotel will be a highly-valued addition to the quickly growing Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants portfolio of properties which are beloved by guests – including IHG One Rewards members – for their individual identities, eye-catching designs and repurposing of inspiring, iconic buildings.

Kimpton Los Monteros Marbella will be operated by IHG under a hotel management agreement with Monterotel SL, owned by the JV of Bain Capital & Stoneweg, which was set up in 2021 and owns four hotels in Spain.

Mrs Willemijn Geels, VP Development, Europe, IHG Hotels & Resorts, said: “We are delighted to have grown our Kimpton brand portfolio in Spain to three properties with the signing of Kimpton Los Monteros Marbella. We can’t wait to complete the full renovation of this outstanding hotel, and begin to welcome guests in the next few years.
