Exclusive: Inside the Magaluf Hotel Where a Brit Was Raped by a 'Wolf Pack'
As the Magaluf 'wolf pack' rapists face sentencing, a major update reveals the transformation of the BH Mallorca hotel, where a horrific assault occurred just a short walk from the lively strip. This exclusive report delves into the hotel's troubled history and its recent rebranding.
The Horror Assault at BH Mallorca
In the summer of 2023, BH Mallorca, located a nine-minute walk from Playa de Magaluf beach, became infamous for a brutal group rape in room 108 at dawn. An 18-year-old British girl was attacked by a 'wolf pack' of men who laughed, hurled vile insults, and filmed the degrading assault. Shockingly, the gang reportedly invited strangers from the corridor to join, offering 'free sex.' This incident has left locals and tourists deeply shaken, highlighting grave safety concerns at the adults-only resort.
Safety Complaints and Closure
Following the assault, other guests expressed alarm over conditions at BH Mallorca, complaining of break-ins, 'dirty' hygiene, and out-of-control visitors. The hotel, once known for raucous pool parties and all-night drinking, closed in 2024, just over a year after the incident. The final 'legendary BH pool party' marked its end, but memories of the hotel continue to haunt former guests.
Rebranding to Fergus Club Mallorca Waterpark
Originally part of the Palladium Hotel Group, the site has been transformed and rebranded by the Fergus Group as the Fergus Club Mallorca Waterpark Hotel. This new venue focuses on family-friendly holidays, featuring candy-coloured slides and a kids' club, a stark contrast to its party-heavy past. However, some noise from the surrounding party town persists, challenging efforts to revamp the area's image.
Guest Experiences and Reviews
Reviews from former guests paint a disturbing picture of BH Mallorca. Complaints included:
- Hygiene issues, such as 'dirty prison-style blankets' and unflushed toilets.
- Safety breaches, with reports of break-ins where intruders left belongings but took items like chargers.
- Poor security, described as 'mediocre,' with illegal ticket sellers allowed to enter and knock on doors.
- Noise disturbances, including 4 am chanting and screaming until 5 am, making sleep nearly impossible.
- Uninspiring views from balconies, overlooking dirty alleys and dumpsters.
One guest likened the services to 'death row,' while others felt unsafe due to broken locks and unresponsive staff. Despite these issues, the hotel was once praised for its pool parties and proximity to super-club BCM, attracting fun-loving twentysomethings.
Current State and Community Impact
Today, the Fergus Club Mallorca Waterpark Hotel receives praise for cleanliness but faces ongoing noise complaints. The rebranding aims to distance the site from its dark past, yet the legacy of the 'wolf pack' rape and safety failures lingers. The Mirror has reached out to the Fergus Group and Palladium Group for comment, underscoring the need for accountability and improved safety measures in tourist destinations.
