One Star Bliss
La Estrella de Tarifa is a cheap and cheerful one-star hotel in Tarifa that I cannot recommend enough. I had the penthouse which was perfect once I got fit enough to take on the stairs three or four times per day. I was attempting and later completing a swim of the Strait of Gibraltar and La Estrella was perfect as the budget base to work from.

It was simple for a three day stay. The receptionist was great and accomodating. I stayed in the penthouse. No elevator, so if stairs isn’t your thing, don’t stay at the penthouse. it was perfect for me

Could find better in Tarifa
The area itself is great but the room wasn't that clean. My friend and I had allergic reactions to the blanket put on out beds.The bathroom smelled and the shower would start leaking randomly at night.

We stay in hotels all over the world every 6 months or more. Our budget has been low, mid and high over the past 15 years. I must say if you adore 5 star accommodation this is not for you. Personally I love the quirkiness of this hostel. The room is clean, big enough and has Wifi. The bathroom is extremely small but adequate. The location is awesome and the staff speak English. At night, when you leave your room, there are candles, lanterns and incense to guide your way to the front door. We loved the change from he sterile 3/4 star hotels

Ein Hotel mit sehr viel Charm. Die Zimmer sind individuell und der Zugang ist auch etwas speziell. Eine schmale steile Treppe führt zu den einzelnen Zimmern in den verschiedenen Stockwerken. Man bekommt das Gefühl von 1001 Nacht mit viel Arabischem Flair. Wir waren begeistert vom Zimmer, obwohl es nicht modern eingerichtet war. Natürlich gab es aber auch WiFi und einen kleinen Fernseher. Diesen brauchten wir aber nicht, da es schöner war in der Altstatt zu flendern und die verwinkelten Gassen zu erkunden.

Hôtel sympa bien situé dans le centre historique
Charmant petit hôtel joliment décoré, plusieurs appartements disponibles de tailles différentes. Vue sur les toits de la ville depuis ma chambre, pas d’air conditionné, un ventilateur seulement - j’ai eu très chaud certains jours. J’ai passé un séjour très agréable dans cet hôtel, proche de tout, mais dans une rue calme. Le personnel est sympathique.

Ideal para estancias cortas
La situación es inmejorable y la atención muy buena; la habitación es muy pequeña y en el baño no se cabe. La nevera es ruidosa y apenas enfría. Pero, en general, bien para estancias muy cortas.

Bene ma non benissimo.
Nulla di eccezionale, non pulitissimo tanto che le lenzuola a volte presentavano delle macchie, tende piene di polvere e bagno non pulitissimo. La titolare l ho conosciuta l'ultimo giorno alla consegna delle chiavi, leggermente inesistente.

Hostal super cuco y muy céntrico. Lo bueno que tiene es que aunque sea céntrico no se encuentra en las calles donde están los bares y restaurantes, por lo que no hay ruidos molestos por la noche. El personal super atento, nos recomendó muchos sitios para visitar y dónde comer. Si volvemos a Tarifa, sin duda repetiremos.

Great place to stay in the center of historical town. Room need some refreshment but was ok. Bed was smal and hard. Room was on top in a typical Tarifa style building with small stairs and candle light. very nice place tasty with beautiful nature and restaurants ,bars and shops bohemia style. Great stay

Omöjligt att köra bil dit. Trevlig receptionist Standarden på rummet motsvarade inte bilderna och för det priset vi betalade hade vi förväntat oss mycket mer. Ingen AC och mycket liv utanför gjorde det väldigt svårt att sova. Området i sig är fantastiskt!

Una bella settimana
La posizione è perfetta, in pieno casco antigo ma non nella zona dei bar de copas, quindi silenzioso. Buon rapporto qualità/prezzo. Manca un po' di posto per appendere le cose (asciugamani, teli e costumi) ad asciugare. Carina l'abitudine di lasciare frutta fresca anche in camera!
