THE tourist stabbed at a hotel in Magaluf has been named as Robert Watson.
Robert, from Ardrossan, was on holiday with his brother at the TRH Magaluf hotel when a 'fight' took place at around 2am on Sunday morning.
The 30-year-old was rushed to the Son Espases hospital in Palma de Mallorca.
Doctors said he had stab wounds to the buttocks, back and abdomen.
A British man has since been arrested in the party resort over the stabbing on suspicion of attempted homicide.
And three other Brits have also been arrested over the fight.
Robert's grandfather George told the Scottish Sun Online that he is a "very lucky boy".
He told the paper: “When we first heard about it we thought he might’ve been dead. We’re so glad to hear he’s stable.
“That Magaluf is some place. When we heard he was going there we were worried.
“He can be a bit silly at times but this is terrible - he’s a very lucky boy."
Young Brits flock to the party resort for cheap booze and good weather.
