Charming, elegant, an oasis in the desert, stylish, unique, surprising... are descriptions we repeatedly hear from our firsttime and regular guests.

Like most places with their own distinctive character, words can never genuinely describe the charisma of Hotel Tikar. The azure and white facade of a typical Mediterranean hotel almost betray the traveller of the pleasant secret that is hidden within. However the moment the door swings open and you discover the brilliant combinations of blues, ochres and yellows on the Italian textured walls you realize this hotel is far from typical.

It is a special place where one needs to personally walk on the dark African hardwood floors, see the constantly changing art exhibitions, settle into an overstuffed sofa in the bar next to the fireplace, sit on one of Restaurante Azul's teak chairs, taste a traditonal Spanish or New World wine, smell the jasmine-rose-honeysuckle medley in the garden or listen to the waves breaking on the seashore from the rooftop terrace on a moonlit night.

Hotel Tikar's allure is it's effortless ability to caress you and comfort you. As one guest once told us "A 3 day weekend here is as restful as a 2 week holiday in an ordinary hotel."

Hotel Tikar located 250 meters from the beach on the coast of Almería in the fishing port of Garrucha, is a casually elegant hotel. With only six rooms, all of which are suites, we offer the warmth and friendliness of a quiet bed and breakfast and the attention and services of a finer hotel. We hope that one day you will be able to visit our hotel on your own.

If you have any questions or inquiries please do not hesitate to call us directly, we look forward to hearing from you.
