About this place The Cookbook Gastro Boutique Hotel & Spa

The Cookbook Gastro Boutique Hotel & Spa is a mainstream, gay-friendly boutique hotel in the Marisol Park development, above Calp on Spain's Costa Blanca in Alicante province. As the name says, the focus is on food, with a restaurant at the centre of the hotel, plus a spa. Google reviews average 4.6 from about 1,050. The hotel is in a residential area outside the town centre, so a car or taxi is useful for getting to Calp's beaches and the Peñón de Ifach rock. There is no gay scene in Calp. Benidorm, about 25 minutes south, has the area's main cluster of LGBTQ bars.

A very pleasant little hotel. The spa is very well maintained, and the restaurants are excellent. The breakfast is high quality, and they have an open kitchen. The best thing about it is the staff, who are very attentive. Quique is very friendly.

It's a boutique hotel with a beautifully curated setting and two Michelin-starred restaurants, one of which is a gourmet restaurant with an extraordinary 29-euro menu. Few hotels offer such high-quality food. The attention of the entire staff is second to none.

We went with our two dogs, and they didn't give us any problems, although the €15 fee per dog per night is excessive for my taste. Otherwise, the hotel was quiet and well-maintained. The beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was very good (if it's not included, the price of breakfast would be excessive). We ate at the Komfort restaurant; everything was delicious and the price was good for the quality.

We stayed for a weekend and the staff were excellent, the rooms were very nice with a large terrace, and the food was quite good. Be sure to try the rice with aged beef, everything was delicious, and the breakfast was pretty good too.

Decent hotel, service good, room facility's good but decor tired and dated. Grounds well kept but the hotel is not reflective of the on site restaurants. Breakfast is quite poor, low on quantity and variety, some items had run out by 9am and staff pleasant but hid in the kitchen rather than engaging with staff. Cost overall represented reasonable value
