Very friendly staff, easy parking in the community lot, easy to get to (pay attention to the arrival instructions), good AC, and a nice breakfast. Our lower floor room felt a little damp, which may partly because we had the AC cranked. Comfy bed. Would stay again.

Very cool architecture and decor, the dining atrium with vertical garden is a little oasis. Delicious breakfast and kind and patient staff. Maria is a goddess who floats through the hotel anticipating your every need with grace and efficiency and impeccable English. For those that want to relive their youth hostel experience but need the finer things will find this fits the bill!

Excellent séjour à cet hôtel, les deux personnes que nous avons vu à l'accueil sont très sympathiques et partagent avec plaisir les bons plans locaux. Une parle très bien le français ce qui facilite les échanges. Tout est parfait et pensé, le petit déjeuner est excellent et il y a thé, café, fruits à disposition toute la journée. Notre chambre etait spacieuse, propre, avec une bonne literie et une petite terrasse. Le plus est le rooftop avec vue sur la ville et la mer. Merci à toute l'équipe pour cet agréable séjour.

Loved every about the property, but the ladies were amazing. Oriana offered wonderful places to eat and was always their to make the best coffee in town. We loved how quiet and cozy we felt inside.

We loved our stay at Hotel Kook. The building was beautiful, rooms decorated well, and the breakfast was excellent. Great location too. The bowl of fruit and fruited water available at all hours was a wonderful treat, very appreciated. We would definitely stay here again.
