What guests think
Across many glowing reviews, Kook Hotel Tarifa stands out for exceptionally friendly staff, a delicious breakfast, stylish boutique design, and a rooftop terrace with sweeping views, set in a convenient old town location close to dining, beaches, and the ferry.
Rooms are modern, comfortable, and often quiet, with decor that feels unique rather than generic. Cleanliness earns frequent praise, while the old town setting means parking is off site in nearby lots. Expect a welcoming boutique stay with thoughtful touches and an easy base for exploring Tarifa.

Excellent séjour à cet hôtel, les deux personnes que nous avons vu à l'accueil sont très sympathiques et partagent avec plaisir les bons plans locaux. Une parle très bien le français ce qui facilite les échanges. Tout est parfait et pensé, le petit déjeuner est excellent et il y a thé, café, fruits à disposition toute la journée. Notre chambre etait spacieuse, propre, avec une bonne literie et une petite terrasse. Le plus est le rooftop avec vue sur la ville et la mer. Merci à toute l'équipe pour cet agréable séjour.

This property was outstanding, Miriam greeted us with a room upgrade and she turned on the A/C 1/2 hour before our arrival so we would be quite comfortable. We are traveling through Spain and this was the most comfortable bed we have had, excellent! The rooftop was a great place to take coffee or wine. The rest of the staff were incredible as well, breakfast was so so so good! The old town was nearby to explore shopping and dining and very walkable but don’t attempt to drive in, the streets and corners are not easily maneuvered and there is no parking in old town. You must park outside a few blocks away. The property was an easy walk to the port to catch our ferry to Morocco and the staff at Kook were very happy to hold our luggage until we returned the next afternoon. An excellent experience at Kook! We were here for only one night but on our next trip we plan to stay in Tarife longer as both the old town and the newer town looked so charming and worth a longer visit!

Very cool architecture and decor, the dining atrium with vertical garden is a little oasis. Delicious breakfast and kind and patient staff. Maria is a goddess who floats through the hotel anticipating your every need with grace and efficiency and impeccable English.

Greeted with enthusiasm, efficient check in, map supplied of old town and suggested eateries marked. Room was spacious, well lit and great comfortable bed, great shower. Tea/coffee, fruit, filtered water and flavoured water available 24 hours. Great roof top area to view the old town and activities in the Gibralter Strait. Breakfast plentiful and varied with gorgeous ladies on hand to assist with keeping the breakfast area clean and stocked. Lift on the premises and cooling walled garden to sit by and have breakfast.

Great boutique hotel in the old town. Close to great restaurants. We were there in the summer and the vibe in the old town was fabulous. The room was unique (in a good way way - relaxed and casual) and we had a patio. Breakfast was included and quite good. The person greeting us at the hotel when we were there was lovely and helpful. The upstairs deck has a great view of the sea and you can see Africa in the distance.

This is quite easily one of the best hotels I've ever been to, and one of the best experiences overall, period. The staff is incredible. When they found out we were leaving earlier than the free breakfast started in the morning, they wrapped us up a personal breakfast and delivered it to our room the night before. The furniture, setting, vibe and amenities were incredible, clean, cozy, and warm. It made want to stay longer. Then the recommendations for travel to Morocco and Spain were amazing, and they even toasted us for our honeymoon. A must stay experience.

The Kook Hotel was a great find, and although we were there for only one night, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property is a surprise from the moment you step out of the alleyway and into the dimly lit lobby. Orianna is lovely and friendly, as well as being very professional. Rooms were very comfortable with good showers, efficient AC and good lighting. Breakfast was delicious too. We will return later this year, or next summer. I cannot find anything negative to comment on.

Much, much more than a five star experience I feel bad giving Kook Hotel a five star review because I’ve given many others five stars, and Kook is SO much better. First the staff, Oriana at reception was so warm and welcoming, went above and beyond to make sure our Tarifa experience was exceptional. After more than a year of travel since we retired I can say that we’ve never felt such warmth and welcome anywhere. Paqui. We met Paqui preparing breakfast our first morning. She was so warm and friendly, telling us proudly about her city of Tarifa, “una ciudad de puertas abiertas” a city so safe you don’t need to lock your doors. Pepe. We asked Pepe, the manager, where we could find a laundry, he responded by asking us how much we had and then they washed our clothes for us at no charge. When we checked out after two nights, Oriana gave us a hug, it almost brought tears to our eyes, because unfortunately, this level of warmth and kindness is all too rare. And if that wasn’t enough, the food and drinks they provide are beyond the pale, I particularly loved their chia oat breakfast and avocado toast. And of course, they had the most comfortable bed and best shower we’ve had in Europe thus far. They have super cool common areas with a living green wall and an amazing rooftop terrace. Kook is a 10 star hotel with a 100 star staff. We were so sad to leave.
Much, much more than a five star experience I feel bad giving Kook Hotel a five star review because I’ve given many others five stars, and Kook is SO much better. First the staff, Oriana at reception was so warm and welcoming, went above and beyond to make sure our Tarifa experience was exceptional. After more than a year of travel since we retired I can say that we’ve never felt such warmth and welcome anywhere. Paqui. We met Paqui preparing breakfast our first morning. She was so warm and friendly, telling us proudly about her city of Tarifa, “una ciudad de puertas abiertas” a city so safe you don’t need to lock your doors. Pepe.

This is quite easily one of the best hotels I've ever been to, and one of the best experiences overall, period. The staff is incredible. When they found out we were leaving earlier than the free breakfast started in the morning, they wrapped us up a personal breakfast and delivered it to our room the night before. The furniture, setting, vibe and amenities were incredible, clean, cozy, and warm. It made want to stay longer. Then the recommendations for travel to Morocco and Spain were amazing, and they even toasted us for our honeymoon. A must stay experience.

Service and location were fantastic. Rooftop deck is a beautiful amenity. Breakfast was delicious. Convenient location in the old city, near the wall entry. Staff went above and beyond, making us feel at home throughout our stay, and offering helpful restaurant and other suggestions.

Location
Set in the old town, the hotel is walkable to restaurants, shops, the beach, the port, and the ferry to Morocco. Driving and parking inside the old town can be tricky, so plan to use nearby lots and walk.

This hotel was in a very quiet corner of the old city, very convenient to restaurants and local sites. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast table was loaded with delicious food and fresh juice. We enjoyed our stay!

We enjoyed this modern hotel tucked into a quiet corner of Tarifa's old town. The rooftop deck was beautiful and the selection at breakfast was great. Parking was a bit tricky - the first option was full but we found parking at the second suggestion. Once parked everything is very walkable. The staff was warm and helpful.

We loved our one night stay at Kook. The hotel staff were friendly and the room was lovely and clean. We had a very good breakfast and the hotel was ideally situated in the old town of Tarifa. We would love to stay here again.

Great boutique hotel in the old town. Close to great restaurants. We were there in the summer and the vibe in the old town was fabulous. The room was unique (in a good way way - relaxed and casual) and we had a patio. Breakfast was included and quite good. The person greeting us at the hotel when we were there was lovely and helpful. The upstairs deck has a great view of the sea and you can see Africa in the distance.

This general property & room, staffing, complimentary breakfast were amazing. Short walk to village square for ample dining and shops, ferry to Morocco, beach, & historic sites. Our favorite overall stop while in España.

This property was outstanding, Miriam greeted us with a room upgrade and she turned on the A/C 1/2 hour before our arrival so we would be quite comfortable. We are traveling through Spain and this was the most comfortable bed we have had, excellent! The rooftop was a great place to take coffee or wine. The rest of the staff were incredible as well, breakfast was so so so good! The old town was nearby to explore shopping and dining and very walkable but don’t attempt to drive in, the streets and corners are not easily maneuvered and there is no parking in old town. You must park outside a few blocks away. The property was an easy walk to the port to catch our ferry to Morocco and the staff at Kook were very happy to hold our luggage until we returned the next afternoon. An excellent experience at Kook! We were here for only one night but on our next trip we plan to stay in Tarife longer as both the old town and the newer town looked so charming and worth a longer visit!
