Really nice hotel perfectly located next to the Faro sign and within walking distance from almost everything. The breakfast buffet had several local dishes (some of which were changed from day to day) and was impressive and very tasty. The only thing which was not perfect was that the swimming pool was closed for maintenance during our stay.

Great hotel, stayed there before and would do again. Breakfast very good, room clean and nice beds. On a negative, we were supposed to gave a bottle of wine in our room which never materialised even though we mentioned it at reception

We have stayed at this hotel before and were delighted to see the renovations. The rooms are nicely decorated and we were happy with how things looked. The gal on the front desk is a gem. She’s so sweet. The rooftop bar is a must see. The view is incredible. The breakfast is one of the best we have ever encountered.

Excellent Hotel, ideally situated in Faro, overlooking the Marina. A five minute walk from the bus station or 10 mins to the railway station. Superb rooftop restaurant serving a fantastic breakfast with a view. Friendly and helpful staff, excellent room. Good value. Overall a wonderful Hotel 10/10. Thank you

It’s opposite the Marina and within walking access to the Old town. The train and bus stations are a short walk away. This made the stay convenient. We got a bottle of wine as part of the hotels.com reservation which was great. We went for the half board option expecting a buffet for dinner but instead we had a three course meal which far outweighed the costs of the half board deal. Bed, pillows and room was comfortable. Good bathroom with toiletries. Also got a free bottle of still and sparkling water. Great deal overall!
