Colorful rooms at the top of a steep staircase. We liked the sweet little patio nestled among the taller buildings which was a perfect spot for our picnic- nice and cool. We enjoyed the complementary wine and filtered water. Rooms were spacious, well appointed, uniquely furnished and memorable. Breakfast was served in the restaurant below and was a big plate of yogurt, granola, and fruit and then an omelette with some veggies on the side. Fresh squeezed orange juice all served by a friendly expat who also helped us store our bicycles in an adjacent shop.
Featuring a scenic roof terrace, the Silves Historical House is a 3-minute walk from the Silves center. It is located just a 4-minute walk from the famous Silves Castle.

I liked the style and charm of accommodations. I also liked the rooftop patio with 270° views of the town. It was also walking distance to a large parking lot, restaurants, and the castle as well as a short drive to a grocery store. It was only about a 25-minute drive to Benagil and Ferragudo.

This is a very unique property with an open-air atrium with a small guest pool and sitting. Very nicely furnished. The breakfast at a nearby restaurant was exceptional. There are lots of shops and restaurants down the hill from the hotel. The hotel is right next to a historical stone gate to the upper part of the city and the castle. It’s about 20 minutes from the coast. We took a boat tour through the caves, which was awesome.

Silves is a small town with a river running through it that isn't too "Touristy". There are plenty of bars, restaurants, shops and cafes. The cathederal and the Castle are worh a visit and the Medieval festival was jolly!
Beaches are an easy drive away
Its great if you're looking for a quieter holiday but still with enough variety of places to eat to keep you going for a week or two!

Loads of interesting history and some amazing locations to visit. Everywhere was walking distance, although some may find some of the inclines a little challenging. Ubers are plenty, cheap and the drivers are very professional and friendly.
Indeed everyone there was, in my experience, friendly and welcoming and very helpful. I always felt very welcome and at ease.
The restaurants and bars were great - the food and drink (especially the rose wine and port), was exceptional.
Just one word of warning - the mosquitoes (certainly in April) were voracious and vicious. Take some repellant with you, along with your favourite antihistamine if you are sensitive to insect bites.

Silves is a pretty and traditional Portugeese town with history and architecture and facilities for the tourist. It is a good place to visit. The deserted and boarded up trainstation looks like something out of an old western. Taking the train in the Algarve is great, but sad that the people let their trainstations decay. This is an otherwise great inroad to Silves but two kilometers from town. A geographical oddity.

I am spending three months in Portugal, travelling around, and Silves is one of my favourite finds. I loved all the storks and their nests, the castle on the top of the hill, and the abundance of nature. Our favourite restaurant was Cafe Ingles near the castle where we had a late dinner. There is a coffee shop, Ana & Joana, in a corner by the castle, which served amazing upside down orange cake. The owner was very kind and accommodating and made the visit memorable.
We walked most of the time and found it easy to get around. When we were looking for the museum, I stepped into an art shop and the owner came out on the street to point me in the right direction.

Silves had a small, walkable, historic downtown area.
Silves had a small, walkable, historic downtown area. We stayed close to the historic area so we walked to coffee shops, the park and shopping. We had dinner at four different restaurants for our four nights in Silves but unfortunately none of them was a dinner that I would say was fabulous. We went up to the castle but there was a sign on the door saying "STRIKE" so it was closed. It is a wonderful location to stay if you are visiting the Algarve because it is centrally located.

As every review this villa is a must !!!
As every review this villa is a must !!!spotless inside and out plenty of loungers umbrellas around the pool. Fantastic eating area inside and out. Every possible utensil you would need. Check in and out so easy with such helpful owners. We were a family of 7. 5 adults and 2 children. The kids refused to go to the water park or the beach as they loved being in the pool from morning till night. All toiletries were on all bathrooms along with plenty of toilet rolls. Plenty of towels. Will we be back I really hope so. Thank you Joseph and your son Joseph for our wonderful welcome and our complimentary bottle of port and water. You do yourselves proud . Keep up the good work you put into your beautiful villa and thank you for allowing us to share special family time .

Great place to stay, the city of Silves was beautiful and it was great to be able to experience it at night as well as during the day. The house allowed us to visit the region of Algarve within a 50min car ride (Faro, Lagos...).
The house itself is well equiped, cosy and the bathroom/rooftop was definitely a must !!
We stayed during the hot weather and we opened the windows and put the fan on during the night so sleeping was fine.
We absolutely loved staying in Miguel and gustavos beautiful home. Enjoyed the pool, the cats, dogs, garden and comfy amenities. Very relaxed stay. Close to the charming town of silves. Our hosts were very kind and charming.
