The Rock Hotel is an institution in Gibraltar and indeed the Mediterranean. Built in 1932 by the Marquis of Bute, the hotel to this day still offers standards of service and guest care from that bygone, more genteel era. Decorated in the colonial style, The Rock Hotel enjoys a unique aspect in Gibraltar with all rooms having magnificent views across the Bay of Gibraltar, the Spanish mainland and the Rif Mountains of Morocco. With an ambience that will please the leisure and corporate guest alike, the Rock Hotel truly is "an oasis in a busy world".

The pool, which is open-air and of the seawater variety, sits in its own secluded garden away from the hustle and bustle. This area enjoys magnificent sunshine for the majority of the day and is a must for those seeking that Mediterranean tan.

The food at the Rock is an eclectic mix of British, Moorish and Iberian and they are proud to be the recipients of two RAC dining awards along with the RAC White Ribbon Award. The wine list, whilst varied, majors on many of the excellent new wave wines being made in Spain at the moment. The Rock's Barbary Bar, serving light meals as well as drinks, continues the colonial theme and opens out onto the charms of the Wisteria Terrace, a beautiful spot with spectacular views. Those vistas come into play once again with the Rock's lounges, which serve a classic, English style, afternoon tea.
