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!

We LOVED this hotel. Super cool and funky. A decor. A welcomed break from typical hotels. The front desk (I think her name is Maria) was exceptionally nice and helpful. If we ever make it back to Tarifa, we would not even consider looking for a different hotel.

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.

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.

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.

If only all hotels were like the Kook Hotel…
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.
