Great hotel in a good location right at the front overlooking the sea. Well placed as you’re only a short walk into the old town square or the Marina. Spotlessly clean and staff are very friendly. The views from the front facing rooms are fabulous. Not all rooms have a balcony so just check when booking. Nice little restaurants and bars close by.

Everything we wanted and more for our first stay in the Algarve/Albufeira. The accommodations were comfortable, we chose the top floor unit overlooking the beautiful beach that had very easy access and conveniently an elevator that would take you up and down, which was great after a day in the sun. Also enjoyed the markets close by to get water and beer to cool you down and also some great cafés that offered nice breakfast options or a mid afternoon snack. If there was one negative that I could say it would be the stairs leading up to the top floor can be a bit steep if you are carrying larger luggage, but Bruno was a great help with assisting us with that. Having a communal kitchen available was also nice. The location of this hotel was just what we needed as it was close enough to the hustling bustle of Old Town Albufeira but far enough that you can enjoy a decent sleep. Would definitely go back

Fantastic view of the beach and water. Easy access to the beach (steps away from the elevator), lots of restaurants within short walking distance in Old Town. 20 minute walk to marina for boat tours. This was my 2nd visit here and hope to go back again.

Perfect location to beach, variety of restaurants and close to intermarche grocery store. Kettle, tea, mugs, fridge to get the mornings started. Very clean/tidy room. Excellent housekeeping service! Front desk clerk very helpful. Main foyer furnishings are dated. We used the stairs to get to our room, so I can't recall if there was an elevator. There was some street noise late at night which might bother a lighter sleeper. A/C, TV and shower pressure was excellent. We stayed for 3 nights and would definitely return and stay longer.

Great location to the old town and beach. Just beside the beach lift, so no steps down or up. Renovated room. However, had an issue with hot water first night. Probably due to water tank on the roof was cold. All good later. Had a partial view to the ocean, but still great!
