An Amazing Hotel

We stayed for 3 nights this month. I can honestly say this is one of the nicest hotels we've stayed in. Fantastic staff who were always ready to help, brilliant food in Komfort Restaurant and set in a beautiful, quiet location. Highly recommended and we will definitely return.

Convenient location and good food.

The room we booked at the CookBook hotel (Junior Suite) came with the most wonderful balcony (it was huge!) and a separate little lounge area. The bathroom was large, clean and well stocked with nice products. I had a massage one day in their spa, which was wonderful. The food in the restaurant was lovely - though we didn’t realise it wasn’t open until Thursday so had to find alternative arrangements on our first night. Not a problem though, as gave us the opportunity to walk into Calpe and see a bit of the seafront. It was about a 15 minute walk to the sea and centre of town, which was fine for us and also meant that the area immediately around the hotel was quiet and residential. It was a good base for being able access that coastline and explore other areas nearby, such as Moraira and Denia.

Durante toda nuestra estancia no han limpiado las mesas del restuarante de terraza de la suciedad que ha traido la lluvia. No lo recomendamos a nadie.

A boutique hotel overshadowed by its restaurants

Located in a quiet residential area just outside Calpe this boutique hotel has become a little faded in its decor and could do with some refurbishment, particularly in the bathrooms, if it wants to retain a “boutique” status. On the positive side the staff are very helpful and charming. Much emphasis is given to the two restaurants linked to the hotel which are very popular and successful. Sadly the hotel does not receive the same high standards.

Parfait!! Nous avins profité d'une journée supplémentaire sur Calpe dans ce bel endroit. Tout était très bien, du lieu, au calme et proche de la plage, jusqu'au professionalisme, à l'attention du personnel, en passant par la chambre, simple, mais grande , avec une belle terrasse, et au restaurant KOMFORT , au top (guide michelin).

Peaceful retreat.

We had a 3 night stay with the intention of having a relaxing time. The hotel staff are very friendly and always helpful. The pool was lovely - very peaceful - lots of birds flying about. We didn't eat at the hotel apart from Breakfasts so can't comment on the food. The menus did look a bit pricey but they have been good value. The hotel is an oasis of tranquility but still within walking distance of the main town etc.
