How much does a 3-, 4- or 5-star hotel cost in Marbella?

Median asking price by star rating

The highest median by star rating in Marbella: 4.5★ places at €778 a night, over 71 measured nights (105 places).

• Lowest: 1★ at €60 over 67 nights.
• Places with no star rating: 2, left out of every row.

A night's figure is the median asking price of one star rating's places that night (3 or more priced); a row's figure is the median of those nights, and its range the middle half of them.

The step from one star rating to the next

The widest gap between neighbouring star ratings in Marbella: 1★ to 2★, +€88 a night (+147%).

Each step compares the medians in the table above. Star ratings differ in size, location and type of place, so a step is a gap between two groups of places, not the price of a star.

Guest score and asking price

In Marbella, places with a guest score of 9 or more asked a median €366 a night, against €154 at places scored under 8 (+138%), over 71 and 71 measured nights.

Places scored 8 to 9 sit out, so no place is in both rows. This compares two groups of places; it does not show that a score moves a price.

Guest scores in Marbella

Places with a guest score in Marbella: 471; scored 9 or more: 236 (50%); average score 8.7/10 over 102399 reviews.

Every place seen in the town counts here, whether or not it showed a price on these nights. Star ratings and guest scores are the hotel sites' own: a star rating is often set by the place itself, a guest score comes from its reviews.

Well rated at or under the median price

For the night of 12 December 2026 in Marbella, 33 of 183 priced places had a guest score of 9 or more and asked no more than that night's median, €283.

This is the night whose median sits in the middle of the measured nights. The full list of that night's places, unnamed in this table, is on the town page.

Weekend step by star rating

Among 3★, 4★ and 5★ places in Marbella, the weekend step is widest at 5★: Friday and Saturday nights asked a median €405, +12% against €360 on Monday to Thursday nights.

Each night's figure is that star rating's median; Sunday nights sit in neither group.
