to get started.

Michael, United States of America

Loved this super cute super comfortable hotel in the best location in Faro. Highly recommended!

John, Canada

We had a room on the 3rd floor, a small balcony with a side view of the harbor. Extremely well sound proofed, very quiet. The hotel is 1/2 block from the harbor, 2 blocks from the bus station, 3 blocks from the train. It is on the pedestrian walkway area with many little shops and restaurants. Breakfast was good- scrambled or fried eggs, bacon, sausage, beans, tomato, nice breads, cut up fruit, yogurt, cereal, juices, cookies.

Leslie, United States of America

Room was big with very comfortable bed. Nice Shower. Initially I rejected the first room I was given but I was not happy with the location of the TV. It was not opposite the bed. Cristina, the receptionist went out of her way to make sure I was happy with the alternative room. Good choice of breakfast.

Yunas, United Kingdom

Location brilliant, most of the staff were lovely, hotel and room decor really modern and breakfast was more than adequate.

Diane, United Kingdom

Fantastic location, windows could open over pedestrian street-when closed couldn’t hear a thing. Breakfast tray was photo worthy!

Karen, United States of America

The location was central to the town, but a little difficult with a car. Parking was expensive because we didn’t want to search for free parking. The rooms were clean and nicely appointed. The lighting was poor. Breakfast was very good the next day and overall the hotel Was very nice and extremely centrally located.

Serge, United States of America

Short walk to bus and train station as well as centrally located to shops, restaurants and old town Faro. Room was very modern, clean and spacious. All of the staff we encountered were kind and helpful. Didn’t have too much time to enjoy the breakfast buffet as our stay in Faro was brief and we had to catch the train but we enjoyed what we had and the options and variety seemed plentiful. Very good coffee too

Don, United States of America

Great location. Room is clean and is tastefully decorated. Very comfortable room to stay with a nice bathroom. Highly recommended.

Hiromi, Australia

Very friendly greeting at reception from Kristine when we arrived which continued for our stay. Very good choice at breakfast. Lots of fruit, nuts and seeds, and bread choices, as well as cooked items. I had let them know in advance I was vegan and they supplied soya milk for me. Huge room, massive bed. We were on the first floor, we didn’t have a view as such, our window looked onto a courtyard with a tree. It was a very quiet room. The Hotel is just off the main drag near the harbour down a tiny side street hidden away, we had no car so it was an excellent location begin central to Faro old town and only a few minutes walk from the bus station which is how we arrived. On our first day we took a Free Faro walking tour, our guide was Rita who was excellent, you pay at the end the amount you think it’s worth.. very informative. The Fado at the Tourist Office is also excellent if you get the chance.
