Four British Tourists Die at Ibiza Rocks Hotel Amid Safety Probes

The Ibiza Rocks Hotel in San Antonio, a popular venue known for its vibrant nightlife and live music events, has been marred by a series of tragic deaths of young British tourists who fell from its balconies. Most recently, 19-year-old British ice hockey player Gary Kelly died after falling from the hotel's third floor, just two weeks after the death of Scottish man Evan Thomson, who fell from the sixth floor. These incidents have led the hotel to pause all upcoming music events, including performances by major artists, as a mark of respect and to support the affected families while cooperating with authorities' investigations. The hotel has emphasized its commitment to guest safety, though local criticism has arisen over safety measures and the venue's continued operation amid these fatalities. The situation has sparked broader concerns about local regulations and the risks associated with the hotel's party atmosphere, with some referring to it as the "death hotel." Authorities continue to investigate the circumstances of the deaths, including potential factors such as alcohol or drug consumption.
