Pros +
- The hotel was absolutely lovely and with authentic furnishings. The room was comfortable and well appointed. Ample breakfast spreads in the beautiful garden. We also ate two nights at the hotel restaurant because the food was so good there.
- Very comfortable beds. I had a view of the Plaza de España. Each room is unique and the building itself is like walking through a (fun) maze. Restaurant is also fantastic.
- The atmosphere is unique. It's a place to relax - a minimum stay of two nights and breakfast from 0830! No place to visit in a rush. The tasteful decor, all the different levels and rooms gives the guests places which are feasts for the eyes.The choice for breakfast was excellent - and where you eat it was full of atmosphere either indoor or outdoor.
Cons -
- I didn't mind at all but be warned there are stairs everywhere. It's not the place to stay if get you out of breath with exertion!
- Nothing. But if you have reduced mobility this place would be a challenge!
- We had to chase down the receptionist to open the restaurant for breakfast as the staff were too busy socializing to hear us knocking at the door for several minutes. Finally they greeted us at 8:40 when they should have been open at 8:30

exquisitely furnished and decorated hotel. beautiful art and artifacts everywhere. gorgeous location on beautiful plaza España. great food in the gorgeous restaurant. a true delight to stay in
Love the design! Super friendly staff, great restaurant & easy to find & get luggage to. Loved being able to communicate via WhatsApp. Wish we had stayed longer!
Lots of stairs, but the staff helped with the bags and the stairs is what makes it so charming.
Great location with a good and probably the only restaurant for dinner. Spectacular sunrise view from hotel balcony.
A lot of stairs.
Was there anything NOT to like, is the question! Beautiful location, super comfortable accommodations and a fantastic breakfast included. The meals at the restaurant were delicious and the service attentive. The hotel is in a beautiful location with many interesting areas to relax, explore and enjoy the views.
Honestly I wasn’t crazy about all the steps to begin with but I was aware of them beforehand and found them easily navigable and not too taxing.
Very pretty . My daughter’s room was nicer than ours as had more light and more comfortable bed. Staff were lovely.
Our room was exceptionally dark. Lack of storage facilities in bedroom and bathroom. Could barely see due to the dark paint and oppressive furniture.Shower kept overflowing .
The room was really nice, the bed was super comfy however it was very close to the restaurant and we could hear the noise till late (it didn't bother us at all, it was more like white noise), but it's something to consider if someone wants a quiet room. The breakfast was absolutely delicious!
La Casa del Califa weaves a spell of other worldliness, tucked into one of Vejer's plazas. It includes a garden restaurant offering gourmet food, a gift shop, and an express food eatery featuring the best tasty bits. The staff provides exceptional service from the check in desk where serene Senora Nuria offers a kind hand to requests, to a gracious restaurant staff who make and serve beautiful food. The views of Vejer's amazing hilltop architecture from my room's window were amazing. I can't recommend it enough for a get-away, retreat, or a special occasion.
Restaurant, rooftop area and location. Restaurant staff was very warm and inviting.
The staff at reception could definitely have been more welcoming and definitely more friendly.
We had dinner at the Jardín restaurant and it was one of the best meals we’ve ever had. The ambience and comfort and accessibility to views and terraces were all outstanding.
Parking is a challenge especially if you rent an SUV. The parking garage is difficult even for a very experienced driver so just be patient and forewarned.
Beautiful property, location and food. Staff great
Excellent restaurant. Needs booking well in advance as is very popular. Nice terrace in the sun.
Our room was very dark with one small window on to a courtyard. Hard to tell from the details. Would book a room sith a view next time.
My wife and I celebrated her birthday here. Great staff, fantastic food and location was perfect.
The room we were assigned had an unbearable sewage smell in the bathroom. After complaining, we were moved to another room. However, it is unacceptable for a hotel to put a guest in this unpleasant situation.
A beautifully decorated Moorish themed hotel with lots of steps, patios, nooks and crannies in the centre of Vejer. The hotel restaurant is just as beautifully decorated. The food is exceptional! And the staff very efficient.
Nothing to not like. However I would suggest a full length mirror in the room as we were struggling with just the one small over the sink mirror in the bathroom.
