Our stay at Hotel Convento in Terifa was made memorable by the wonderful way Lola greeted and treated us. She was so helpful and exuberant!!! The hotel is 1/2 a block from the entrance to the old, walled town, where shopping and dining is plentiful It is also just a 10 minute walk to the ferry to Tangiers. The room, while generous, did not include kleenex/tissue in either the bathroom or the bedroom. And it would have been nice if one or more of the English channels on the TV actually worked, instead of just teasing us.

Great stay, best breakfast ever

Great hotel to enjoy Tarifa. Very good location, super clean and staff friendly. I would prefer a more firm mattress. Shower was great, A/C in the room is excellent too. But for me the outstanding was the breakfast, great selection and everything fresh.

OMG - If you are heading to Tarifa, this is place is definitely worth serious consideration. Beautiful room, an oversized tub with massage jets. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Everything is a short walk away including the ferry to Tangier Ville.

Great hotel. Within walking distance to beach!

I would highly recommend Hotel Convento Tarifa. It was recommend to us by a friend and it did not disappoint. From the moment we walked into the hotel we felt very welcome. Lulu was so nice and helpful with recommending places to see and where to eat depending on our likes. The room was very clean and comfy. Very close to the ferry to Morocco and the beach.

Can't go wrong here

First, I booked the wrong day, and the rate was nonrefundable. I sent them a message, and they switched the day of arrival. They could have stuck me an didn't. Classy! The room was great, nice courtyard behind. Front desk person gave me a map and told me where to go. The hotel is close to the old section of town. I even walked from the ferry to the hotel. Nice little coffee shop in the back.

Don't judge this book by its cover...

Very unassuming from the outside, but with a spectacular interior. A wonderful lady at the reception. Conveniently located if you want to explore the old town and/or catch the ferry for a day trip to Morocco. For a fee, the hotel offers parking in an underground car park about 150 meters away - the only space available was too narrow for my midsize SUV, but there is an excellent public parking garage with valet service also just 150 meters away, and even slightly cheaper than what you would pay at the hotel.
