The staff were very friendly and supportive. We arrived late because our B.A. flight was diverted to Malaga but were still able to have dinner. Special mention to Marina who helped us to locate and retrieve missing baggage which B.A. had left at Heathrow. The food was excellent, our room was perfect and the view from our balcony was stunning

Loved our stay at this property. Parking was so easy across the street and we walked to the gondola ride to the rock and downtown for dinner. The property is well maintained and has amazing views from the balconies. I only regret we did not stay for breakfast as they had a gluten free area in their buffet and I would have liked to try it. Perhaps on our next visit.

The hotel exterior looks the part, but that's where it stops. The room was nice and spacious and the view from the balcony was good, the phone did not work in our room for the whole of our stay , even though it was reported twice.First night went for a meal in the restaurant and the service and food were very poor, as was the breakfast the next day. There's one member of staff that is worth his wait in gold and that is David

Great staff nice hotel.

All the staff were lovely, and really helpful. The room was big and the balcony was nice to sit out on. It’s up a hill so be prepared for that. Restaurant was ok, I preferred eating out for more choice. We had room service which was great, big portions. Really enjoyed our stay there and would return.

This beautiful historic hotel was one of the highlights of my trip to Spain and Gibraltar. The staff service and hotel amenities were excellent. I can’t say enough about the room and view! I could see the cable cars head up to the top of the Rock from my room balcony. I will definitely recommend this hotel to others!

Great views and incredibly clean. Very helpful. Dining at dinner was good but very slow in bar area. First night better than the second. The only improvement to suggest would be manager in dining room. I had to ask for everything and not overly friendly in the bar area. Decided to go elsewhere our third night. Other than that everything was very good.

Absolutely magnificent commanding views of the mediterranean from the rooms, bar and restaurant. Very friendly staff who all spoke both English and Spanish. To my mind it has a lovely sort of golden age of Britain feel to it, which made me quite nostalgic. It's probably fair to say that we had a four, rather than a five star experience overall, but Gibraltar isn't overloaded with very high-end hotels, so I can highly recommend it. If we return to Gibraltar we won't hestitate to return to The Rock.
