A new concept in the heart of the old town. A charming rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the town of Tarifa and the African coast. It's unique and exquisitely decorated. Kook Hotel is located within the ancient walls of Tarifa, 100 meters from "La Puerta de Jerez". This accommodation is an 8-minute walk from Playa Los Lances and the harbor, where you can take the ferry to Tanger. Numerous bars, restaurants and shops can be found just a 4-minute walk away. Kook Hotel is very well located in a quiet atmosphere to relax and at the same time in the center of "la movida Tarifeña".

Hotel's Favorite
One of the nicest experiences we had in Tarifa!! The welcome by I think her name was Miriam (sorry if it's wrong) was wonderful and truly makes you feel welcomed. The breakfast was unique, fresh and special. The wall garden is just beautiful and certainly adds to the splendor. The rooms where cool, quiet and very clean. And all this with two minutes walk to the centre of Tarifa old town. Definitely we will return.

We stayed here on New Year’s Eve and from the moment we stepped foot inside I knew we were in for a treat. The decor is quirky with lots of polished concrete and an eclectic mix of mismatched ‘shabby chic’ furniture and funky art on the walls.
There’s a lovely snug area just off the reception area with a selection of books and games as well as a record player with a selection of vinyl to choose from. We had a drink from the bar here before we went out for the evening - the drinks were good value (two bottled beers and a mini bottle of cava came to €8). There are also tea and coffee making facilities on the ground floor.
We were in room 24 on the second floor which was a good size. The bed and pillows were so comfortable and I had a great night’s sleep. The shower was excellent as was the selection of toiletries (Nuxe soap, shower gel, shampoo and body lotion).
A buffet breakfast is included in the price - we ate outside in the courtyard (where there’s a stunning ‘living wall’). Freshly squeezed fruit juices, bread, meat and cheese, boiled eggs, cereals and yogurts, as well as delicious coffee were a great start to the day (and the year!).
We visit Tarifa quite often, usually just for day trips, but will definitely be checking in here again - especially in the summer when we’d be able to make use of the roof terrace which has great views across to Morocco.

Very friendly and helpful hosts, great accommodations in the best location - easy parking nearby (2 minutes walking), excellent information from the hosts, great breakfast, sustainable, delicious fresh ingredients and bread and variety, one of the best we have in Spain.
Center and harbor within walking distance (10-15 minutes).
Tea, coffee and water always available, stylish interior and rooftop with view of Tangier.
highly recommend.

We really like Tarifa - lots of nice bars and restaurants and a.nice vibe about the town too. We picked this hotel from a group of similar ones in the same price bracket for bed and breakfast. it's a quirky, trendy sort of place that when you open the main door your eyes are taken around the place. Rooms very comfortable, set in a courtyard fashion where our room had natural light but faced internally into the courtyard. All high quality fittings and comfortable bed. We thought breakfast was good, but a bit of a faff too, where Trays of bread and cheese were provided, even if you wanted them or not. Meant there was some unnecessary waste of food. Coffee and tea good and a decent selection of continental food. overall very good and recommended.

This stylish modern hotel is hidden away in the old town. Its rooms and public areas are comfortable and stylishly decorated ( although don't drop anything small in the black handbasin or you'll struggle to find it again). Breakfast is excellent, and the staff laid back and friendly. The roof terrace is also a great place to relax at night, as long as you wrap up against the permanent Tarifa wind.
There is a good value, secure public car park a few minutes walk away.

Friendly staff. walking distance from the beach or old town. You can book a parking place few min walk from the hotel since it is hard to drive in the narrow streets of old town. The smell inside the hotel is amazing. Super clean with fresh breakfast.

Everything about The Kook Hotel was first class. Conveniently located within the old city and close to many restaurants and the beach. The outdoor breakfast area is cozy and secluded, with a 3 story wall of plants and flowers. If you don't take the breakfast option, there is still coffee, fruit and water for you to enjoy. The staff is super friendly and helpful...many thanks to Oriana for her restaurant recommendations and our lively discussion regarding Italy. The bed was super comfy, the bathroom and shower were superior to most you'll find in Spain, and the room was just the right size; SUPER CLEAN. We were able to check in early as our room was ready. This is the only place to stay in Tarifa and we will be back!!!!

My family of four stayed in two rooms at this shadowy chic hotel in the HOPELESSLY HIP town of Tarifa before our ferry to Tangier, Morocco the following day. We LOVED the hotel. The young women who work at the front desk are super helpful and friendly, recommending one of THE best tapas meals we had (Lola, Guzman el Bueno, 5). Our rooms were cozy with stylish plaid accents, a unique change from other hotels on the trip. We loved the welcome fruit plate and sparkling wine as well as the always available water and fruit in the lobby. Breakfast was dee-lish served in the outdoor courtyard with cool green wall or you could eat in the lounge area. It was too windy for the roof deck but it looked fab. with a cool Moroccan vibe. AMAZING hotel in a great town.

We stayed one night to attend the whale trip the next morning and we couldn’t have picked a better place. Location is perfect, nearby everything but no city noises. Great concept of serving yourself and outstanding service from beginning till departure. Because our boat trip started very early we would miss breakfast so the great Oriana organized a breakfast for in our fridge so we wouldn’t go hungry to see the orca’s and we did see them. Would definitely go back when in the neighborhood.

We had a fantastic stay. The room was better than the photos showed, especially the balcony (we stayed in room 21).
The rooftop was completely amazing.
The staff was super nice and helpful and very eager to make us feel comfortable, giving us all sorts of tips for what we should see and where we should eat.
The design of the hotel was amazing but the atmosphere was relaxed and you felt like home.
