Lovely hotel just a 15 minute walk from Main Street. Great food in the restaurant, large bedrooms and a fabulous view looking towards Spain. Quite a few bus routes pass by the hotel, should you wish to avoid the walk up the hill. Well worth staying here. Will go back…

We had a great stay at The Rock Hotel. The parking was easy and the staff were really helpful, allowing us to leave the car for the day after we checked out so we could go and explore The Rock. The room was clean and tidy and the balcony was a lovely nature. The room was bit warm due to the aircon system not being switched on, which meant we had to leave our windows open, causing brightness and noise in the room. If I could improve one thing it would be to allow air conditioning all year round. Other than that, we had a brilliant stay here and would definitely return!

Fantastic stay at The Rock Hotel for my husbands 60th birthday. I purchased helium blooms in advance which were placed in the room for him. They went the extra mile and provided champagne and chocolates which was a fantastic touch and my husband was very surprised. We had afternoon tea in the hotel which was lovely and great to have a gluten-free option. We also dined in the hotel restaurant on one evening which was very nice. Beds were very comfortable and a fantastic sea view room. Staff were all extremely polite and helpful.

Nice hotel across from a lovely botanical garden. Overall experience was good, felt a bit chaotic at times when staff were very busy. The staff are friendly, polite and very willing to help you.
