Lovely room helpful staff, great location. Toiletries provided.
United States of AmericaThe hotel is right in the city centre. Very close to the bus terminal (3 min walk) so getting too and from the airport was very simple. The staff were really friendly. The room was larger than I was expecting and the bathroom was really big too. Everything was neat, tidy and clean and I would have no issue recommending the hotel as a place to stay if you are travelling to Faro.
IrelandThe room was very comfortable and the location was perfect, in the old town area, one block from the water!

United KingdomComfortable room with a very modern look and feel. I appreciated the water heater so I could enjoy hot tea in my room in the morning. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Very conveniently located in centro, near the harbor and all points of interest in easy walking distance. Train station also within walking distance.
United States of AmericaThe location was in the heart of the old city, and perfect. Very close to bus and train stations. The room had a refrigerator, which I have found lacking in Portugal rooms. Also a hair dryer. The staff, especially Chef and Stella, went out of their way to ensure that my room was what I’d booked on booking.com.
United States of AmericaThe staff was especially friendly and helpful. (Yay, Stella!) I was on foot, and they were able to store a backpack until check-in time.
