One person has died and at least 10 have been treated for smoke inhalation after a fire broke out at Sisu Boutique Hotel in Marbella.

Around 100 people were staying at the property, close to Puerto Banus, which is a popular hangout among celebs.

Footage from the scene of the blaze showed at least two people, believed to be holidaymakers, scaling down the side of the hotel as flames ravaged the building.

The cause of the fire is not yet clear and remains under investigation.

Celebrity guests who’ve stayed at the hotel include Michelle Keegan, Mark Wright and Lauren Pope.
