Reviews based on Location
The hotel has a very convenient location, close to the train and bus stations, as well as a reasonable walk to the ferry terminal. My husband and I used Mir Octavio as our base for our day trip into Gibraltar and walked to the ferry terminal to take a ferry bus to Tarifa so we could take the ferry to Tangier. The night manager was very helpful. When we arrived, we discovered that the room we had been assigned had a full bed (we had requested 2 twins to have more room to sleep). The manager gave us room 416, a triple on the 4th floor, because the only other twin room was on the ground floor and my husband had requested a quiet room. The top floor in the hotel is the 4th floor. The manager suggested a nearby Middle Eastern kebab place because the hotel restaurant had already closed. We also got information about buses to Gibraltar. We were very happy with the triple which was roomy and had a surprising amount of storage. We had plenty of hot water. We used ear plugs so we didn't have any noise issues.
Great location to stay if you're taking the ferry from Algeciras. Parking on-site, friendly staff at check-in and a good selection for breakfast. Our room faced the street and was great for people watching. Walking distance to restaurants and the port to catch the ferry.
