Hotel Cidade de Olhão, hotel in Olhão

Hotel Cidade de Olhão is set in the Olhão city centre, in the Algarve Region. The Hotel offers an outdoor pool and a sun terrace, where guests can relax and enjoy a drink from the on-site bar.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful hotel in Olhão, Portugal, for six days with my wife and son, and it exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and outstanding service from the incredible staff members Thais, Irilda, and Mariane. Their friendliness and helpfulness truly made our stay special and memorable. Our suite was absolutely lovely, boasting excellent facilities that catered to all our needs. The bed was extremely comfortable, ensuring we had restful nights, and the high-pressure shower was invigorating. The suite also featured a cozy sofa, two TVs, a cooktop, and a well-equipped kitchen with all the necessary utensils, which made our stay even more convenient. Every morning, we looked forward to the amazing and tasteful breakfast that was provided. The variety and quality of the food were exceptional, making each meal a delightful experience. The hotel and our room were spotlessly clean, which we greatly appreciated. The attention to detail in maintaining cleanliness and hygiene was evident and commendable. The location of the hotel in Olhão is perfect! It’s close to supermarkets, the ferry terminal, and offers free road parking, making it easy to explore the area. The convenience and accessibility added to the overall enjoyment of our holiday. In summary, our stay was fantastic, thanks to the wonderful staff, excellent facilities, and prime location. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a fabulous stay in Olhão, Portugal. We will definitely be back, and we are already recommending to our friends! Best place stayed ever! Thanks. Alan, Érica and Ben :)

Real Marina Hotel & Spa, hotel in Olhão

Overlooking the Ria Formosa Nature Park and marina, this 5-star hotel offers luxurious rooms with a balcony. Facilities include indoor and outdoor pools with panoramic sea views.

We have stayed a number of times at this hotel, booked through you and have always been impressed. However this time we arrived and were given key 438 to our room. We went up in lift to our room only to find that the key would not open the door. We had a card given to us with the key and it clearly stated room 438. Another English guest saw us struggling and immediately checked the card room number and offered to help. He tried with no luck and confirmed it was not the right key. My husband went back to reception with key and card to complain. One of the staff came back with him saying it was room 408, he took us to that room and opened the door. He did not bring back the original card with him. We then went to bed without leaving the room again. After breakfast the next morning we returned to room 408 only to find we had been locked out. It was approximately 9.30 am. Fortunately there was a cleaner nearby who was able to let us into the room. This confusion led to a lot of stress, not very pleasant when you have had a long journey and we’re feeling tired. I complained to the staff on checking out on the next day. We asked them to take our complaint forward and they agreed they would do this. Although they were apologetic they did not seem unduly bothered. We were surprised that a hotel of this rating did not acknowledge our complaint. We would like the hotel manager to be made aware of our experience.

    It's a very safe city.

    It's a very safe city. Many nice shops and restaurants/bars. Very clean and sunny city. Love the historic flooring of the roads, but don't wear high heals there, please. Costline is amazing and very cheap ferry on hand to go to the beach. Like €2.60 only!! Beavhes are stunning and warm sea to swim. Bus and train station is near, and the Uber works fine. Cheap transport as well as the food market. Must visit!!

    Olhao is relaxed. Some great restaurants, lots of variety.

    Olhao is relaxed. Some great restaurants, lots of variety. Our favourite was at the Marina near where you take the ferry. Take a trip to the Ria Formosa and enjoy the islands and the beaches. There are many boat companies plus the regular ferry every 20 minutes. Golf is nearby but expensive. Look for deals, if they are available. We played Benamor, tight close and not very long. Still enjoyed it.

    Beautifully quiet and relaxing Sea , boat trips amazing But a very long walk to the beaches , you need to catch a ferry and then walk 45 mins But the islands are lovely and some nice restaurants And scrummy bakeries A few nice shops I would definitely hire. A car as some of the surrounding area are stunning The yatch club has the most amazing fish And the Mexican near the police station is also very nice

    Beautiful old and new Olhao.

    Beautiful old and new Olhao. Plenty of restaurants and bars in the area and never had a bad meal. Actually loved every meal I had. A long waterfront takes you from the old town to the new town and plenty to see and do.

    Lovely little town, with an old town to stay in and explore and a newer town which we didn't really visit. We found the old town to be inviting, quaint, clean, and big enough to meet your needs for restaurants, shops, and easy access back onto the highway. There are no beaches to walk on, you need to take a boat but we didn't try it out. We enjoyed everything within walking distance. There is a promenade to walk a long the water with outdoor seating and great food, loved the garlic butter shrimp, a popular dish everywhere.

    I know Olhao as a cheap and quit place but not anymore, its too noisy and expensive for us so unfortunately our next trip will be somewhere else. For children there is not so much to do. Its an excellent place for the eldery because of the shops, the bars, the restaurants and the boats to the beach. Eveything is easy to reach by car, bus, train, boat or taxi. You have to be carefull for sunburn. Especially at the beach. I dont burn easily but even early in April I got burned so much it hurts. Be carefull! Also please dont swimm, the water is *** cold and we experienced first hand the tide can take you away from the beach,.

    This place has the quality of a 5-Star luxury hotel at the price of a B&B. They invested a ton of money in having the absolute best quality and comfort for the guests from the bedroom to the beautiful bathroom to the common area. The Owners are a super-nice and hospitable couple. The breakfast is totally top-notch. Totally quiet, rural location, yet close to many interesting sites and not too far from town. We couldn't believe how pleasant this place was. We'd love to come back and stay for a few weeks and just relax.

    This is a lovely apartment - the photos accurately depict the clean lines and modern look. Jose, our host, was very friendly, kind and attentive: we very much enjoyed meeting him. The apartment is well located in downtown Olhao, about 10-15 minutes easy walking through the back streets to the seafront. Parking is plentiful nearby: probably best on the main road before you turn into the street where the apartment is based. There is a lovely dining area and terrace for your exclusive use too. We would definitely return!

    Great location close to Market, town centre, bars , restaurants and cafes. Unfortunately left some clothes in the apartment, but telephoned next day to receive very helpful information to return and collect from delightful staff. Best boat tour around the Ria’s with Sabina boat tours, Maria’s help re booking and Joah as Captain, with his exceptional knowledge of the area, fish/clam farming, and lots of stories from his life long experience of living in Olhao was a terrific afternoons trip.

    This hotel was perfect for us. It's a newly built hotel, spotlessly clean, very comfy beds and a lovely littlle swimming pool and sunbed area, just perfect for early morning swim or to cool off in the afternoon(with no piped music..what a joy!) It's in a quiet part of the town....very close to the train station. The staff were so nice...lots of advice and support about everything. We would highly recommend this hotel as a base to explore Olhao and beyond.

    Absolutely beautiful apartment in a stunning quiet location a couple of miles outside of Olhao. The owners Manuela and Miguel along with their housekeeper Ligia made our stay the best on our trip through Spain and Portugal. The countryside around monte das perdizes is full of walks,and wildlife is abundant. If you want easy access to the towns but also solitude away from the tourist trap, this is the place to stay.

    Met Gino at the Marina Village Appartment , he ran through everything with us, very nice friendly man , bicycles there for use and the deluxe large 2 bed , 2 bath appartment is set up fully for families. Great location , 5/10 mins walk to selection of restaurants or stay in Marina Village for choices too. He dropped me to Train Station and my friend to Faro on departure , I miss Olhao already 🥲🥲

    Victor was the best host ever. He was helpful and attentive, resourceful and informative. He looked after us fabulously. The suite we were offered was beautiful and had a lovely view. The pool was spotless - too bad it was a tad too cold to swim. We will definitely return for longer. Thank you Victor!

    The rooftop terrace is BREATHTAKING! Nice, clean rooms and the surroundings of the town are beautiful! 5min walk from Marina and restaurants. The staff were super friendly and warm. Note that this accommodation is in the old town and not Faro (I.e. close to I <3 Faro sign).
