We came into Portugal after many hours of travel and our accommodations were the most comfortable nights sleep, the bed and the pillows. We did the breakfast the next morning, and it was exceptional, something for everyone. We also visited the bar in the evening for a drink and had wonderful service, helpful recommendations, and great options.

Really nice hotel perfectly located next to the Faro sign and within walking distance from almost everything. The breakfast buffet had several local dishes (some of which were changed from day to day) and was impressive and very tasty. The only thing which was not perfect was that the swimming pool was closed for maintenance during our stay.

Good room and good breakfast. But, strong and unpleasant odor on the first floor where our room was located. No issue in the room. Walking from the elevator to the room was the worst of the odor. Good terrace bar on the 4th floor with marina view and old city view.

We have stayed at this hotel before and were delighted to see the renovations. The rooms are nicely decorated and we were happy with how things looked. The gal on the front desk is a gem. She’s so sweet. The rooftop bar is a must see. The view is incredible. The breakfast is one of the best we have ever encountered.
