This was a wonderful historical hotel, which is walking distance to the main shopping area. It is a special destination for those looking for a unique experience while visiting Gibraltar. I do have to forewarn you, Gibraltar is undergoing major construction throughout and the cable car remains under repair making the visit at this time someone less comfortable.

A bit tired and soleless. Renovations to bar area continuing even on weekend. Room did not get serviced until after 2:00pm and then only when I complained. It’s a steep walk from the main part of town but possible to go out for meals and drinks.

The Rock feels a little tattered. A nice hotel to be sure, but it could use a little facelift. Fantastic location, and Laura at reception was so very helpful. But little things like… I asked for ice (no ice machine) and the bartender acted miffed at the request. Breakfast buffet was mediocre, and dinner was not much better, and expensive to boot. When we called to say the air conditioning wasn’t working in our room, we were told they shut it off for the entire facility for the winter. So great views, free parking on-site and a clean room, but quite a few other details were missing.

Positives: -Nice sized premium room and balcony -View to lovely Botanical gardens across the road Negatives: -Constant 24hour loud noise, like a giant cement mixer, coming from the port area for all 4 days -Amazing a hotel like this does not provide a single hook anywhere in the room to hang anything, even your coats -Daily room refresh and clean completely missed on one day, indifferent reception response with no compensation offered or acknowledged at check out -No cabs/rank nearby, hotel cannot book any for a time, you have to be ready to go within 15 mins of them calling you one -Cannot provide a proper town map at reception, only a poor b/w print-out they do on the printer! -Still an iconic hotel but left rather disappointed unfortunately

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.
