Excellent hotel in the best location

This hotel was great. It was in the heart of Faro. This hotel was very modern yet very comfortable with a great view of the harbor from the roof of the hotel.

Lovely break

very central and not too 'touristy'. the staff here are the best asset-always helpful and patient. Found the location really great for exploring the small side streets and taxis to the larger towns always available. We had a lovely breakfast on the fourth floor each morning. We stayed for five nights and it was just the right amount of time. Area in general very safe and clean, good for families. No beach nearby, but that was okay. Can be accessed easily by catamaran which adds to the adventure especially for the kids!

elderly ladies in february.

took care of elderly lady guests. general view of guests was that the hotel evening dining was too expensive and not that good, so most people ate out. there are lots of reasonable restaurants nearby. had requested that the beds be separated (two sisters) but the message had not filtered to room staff, so had to move beds each day. not a big problem but would have been nice. pls note traveler type does not really reflect two elderly sisters.

Hintansa väärtti

Hotelli sijaitsi todella hyvällä paikalla. Bussiasema sekä rautatieasema lähellä joten sukkulointi muihin kohteisiin oli helppoa. Standardihuone oli pieni, mutta siihen hintaan riittävä. Mitään naulakkoa ei ollut ovesta tullessa, vaan ainoa vaatekaappi sijaitsi huoneen perällä. Outoa ! Aamiainen Cumulus-hotellien tasoa. Henkilökunta erittäin avulias auttamaan kaikessa. Lämminvesi oli poissa puolisentoista päivää ja kaikki yleiset tilat olivat tosi viileitä.
