Outstanding staff, especially Rubem. Lovely choice at breakfast. Great room with a view of the marina. Treated to an anniversary bottle of fizz and fruit which was a lovely touch. Some noise one night above us; sounded like chairs Being dragged across the floor and didn’t stop until midnight. Only happened that one time thankfully. Air con didn’t seem to work in our room, but not sure if it’s off because of the season. Superb location with great access to all modes of transport.

Very Comfortable

Staff are excellent apart from one very rude cleaner who was cleaning the lifts. Check in was efficient and insightful into what to do and where to eat in Faro. The room was great - very comfy bed overlooking the marina. The bathroom was tired and could do with an upgrade. Breakfast was great with loads of options. My only gripe would be why no warm plates for hot food? The downstairs restaurant Adeo was superb and we actually ate the three times during our week stay. Great food, wine and service and very reasonably prices. Would highly recommend. The pool wasn’t open but you could use the sunbeds on the roof top terrace. Very scruffy up there but I would imagine it will get tidied up in time for May. Overall, a great week in a good hotel.

The property was in a perfect central location overlooking the attractive marina. The staff, buffet breakfast and hotel were all excellent. Our only negative was that noisy construction work was being carried out whilst we were there which resonated throughout the hotel from about mid morning to late afternoon. Why oh why didn’t Expedia or the hotel warn us at the time of booking….not good!

A comfortable place in the centre of the action

Best breakfast venue in the city. Wonderful views, extensive buffet, efficient staff and a pianist. What’s not to love! Registration is slow. The furniture in the lobby is well used and needs a good cleaning. Bedrooms are comfortable and well lit. Lots of hangers and two places for two travellers to put their suitcase for ease of access.

What was great? The hotel really could not be better sited. The room was excellent, and the staff were always helpful. Breakfast was varied and good value - all with a pianist! What wasn’t so great? Like a lot of other hotels, they seem obsessed with getting your email at check-in, so I hope they keep to their promise not to send me spam. Poor luck on my part, but I timed my trip (unknowingly) for when they were doing some noisy building work - albeit only during the day.

A decent two star hotel, but not more

The breakfast was decent and a convenient, central location, but it was trying (unsuccessfully) to sell itself as a four star hotel, when it is not there. The reception checks you in at a desk rather than a counter (true in many resorts), but the long lines for check in block the entrance into and out of the hotel. Left baggage is clustered in the open around the check in desks, rather than a luggage room. Hallways with dirty carpet concealed by dim, spot lighting. There are electric wires running down the length of the ceiling of the hallways concealed by a suspended ceiling that is uneven and appears ready to fall down. Wood panelling in room near the floor stained by years of mopping (not recently though). Towel rack falling down

I’ve stayed at this hotel before and had better experiences. This time was not so good. Our original room was extremely dusty, had a musty odor, mold in the fridge and when we pulled back the bed cover there were tiny little spiders. We requested to switch rooms and although they upgraded us the second room wasn’t much better. It was super dusty and there were hairs all over the bathroom walls as if someone wiped them down with a dirty towel. Additionally the room was very cold and we asked for the heat to be turned up but it didn’t seem to help. The only positive is there is a nice breakfast buffet with a beautiful view.

Our stay was ok, but it's a very noisy place, mostly at nighttime. Not a quiet and cosy place. They ask the mini bar to be paid on checkout, so if you drink something from the fridge in your room, you pay for it. Other 4 stars hotels do this for alcoholic drinks only, here we had to pay even for the water found in the fridge.
