Gibraltar Straights View
A 1-bedroom apartment sleeping up to 2 in South District. Rated 8.9 from 51 reviews — above the Gibraltar median.
Our verdict
A 1-bedroom apartment in South District that reviews about as well as the Gibraltar average, on 51 reviews.
It sleeps up to 2, and is about 29 minutes' walk from Main Street, in South District — Above the town on Europa Road. Quieter, greener, and a walk from everything.
It holds 8.9 from 51 guest reviews on Booking.com — level with the Gibraltar median of 8.9 across 140 ranked places, and on a moderate sample. Booking.com is the only channel carrying it, so that is where to read the reviews in full.
Practically, the listing is sold as sea- or marina-facing. The cable car base is around 18 minutes' walk. With room for 2, it reads as a place for a couple or a solo traveller who would rather a quieter base than a central one.

About South District
The residential slope running south from the town towards Europa Point, taking in Europa Road, the Alameda Botanic Gardens and the Rock Hotel. Leafier and considerably quieter than anywhere central, with the trade-off written into the contour lines: everything is downhill on the way out and uphill on the way back.

Where this score comes from
We do not reproduce other sites' review text. We do tell you exactly where the number comes from, so you can check it rather than take our word for it.
Above the Gibraltar median
Gibraltar's median is 8.9, with the middle half of the market between 8.5 and 9.3. Guest ratings bunch up near the top of the scale, so 8.9 means less on its own than it does against the local market.
