We arrived at 9pm to a warm welcome from the reception staff. We were showed to our room on the first floor. The guy from reception showed us how to work the air con etc and made sure we had our cases brought up by the concierge. Because it was late and we had just arrived we decided to eat... more

A great location on the Porto Conte bay not too far from the historic port of Alghero. The hotel is a trendy 60's design with more up to date amenities. The service was courteous and helpful . Good rooms with adequate facilities but no frills.The view from the balcony is breathtaking. The rocky beach has good facilities and ideal for... more

This was the last hotel during our 2 week Sardinian adventure - so we were ready to relax in luxury! Check in was very arduous as the room we were shown was nothing like the email description and pictures on the internet - we fought long and hard and finally, the room we wanted was, afterall, available. After that it... more

The location is very nice, right at the end of a point with a little lighthouse and mini fort. The reception staff was immediately welcoming and explained a little about the... more

It is necessary to hire a car if you wish to eat elsewhere or travel to Alghero (the nearest town). Unfortunately during our stay the hotel also catered for a wedding reception and various training courses and... more

Just stayed at El Faro whilst exploring NW Sardinia. The hotel service was excellent and the location and their waterside beach was superb. Rooms were clean, albeit a little tired in terms of decor. Overall a great experience but a little pricey. more

The views here were absolutely amazing. The setting is peaceful, quiet and secluded. The private cove is beautiful and much nicer that going to a crowded public beach. The hotel itself however is very tired and very much in need of refurbishment. Our room was not very clean. Our bathroom had a leak on the ceiling and the bathroom fan... more

We loved this hotel, and we are quite picky. The service was excellent throughout, the room was nice, and the views over the sea are to die for. It is quite a traditional Italian hotel, but we could not fault it except for my usual Italian gripe about lack of internet in the rooms, and the fact that you have... more
