After four nights up in the hills north of Faro we discarded a very dusty hire car and settled in at the Residencial Algarve for a couple of nights. Very nice lady behind the desk was always helpful whenever asked. We had a third floor room with a balcony overlooking the street and distant views across the lagoon. The room... more

This is a real bargain. Very simple, but nothing is missing in the room, very clean, the best location in the heart of the town, very good continental breakfast, parking facilities, and the staff is very nice and helpful. Stay here. You´ll be glad you choose this hotel. more

I only just vacated 4 days at this hotel and I imagine it would be considered a pretty good deal in Faro. I had been travelling across the Algarve on holidays. It wasn't difficult to locate and is close to the marina, old town, shops, restaurants and most places, including both train and bus stations. My room had a balcony... more

We stayed one night enroute to Lisbon by train. I left a leather belt with 33year old silver cowboy buckle commemoration US bi-centenial in room. The manager Mr J C De SIlva was extremely helpful in returning this to me in Canada, as we were still travelling. We exchanged a number of emails and he was most sympathetic to my... more

Wife and I arrived in Faro after booking a Hostel just down the road. As soon as we walked into the hostel we knew we couldn't stay there.

All staff were friendly and very accommodating; complimentary breakfast were more then we could hoped for; attention to detail highlighted the pride they obviously have in the service they provide. The short bus ride to the beach just outside the town was well worth it. Bonus, Ryan Air flys in to Faro, offering timely service for an economical price, or... more

This was a good budget hotel with a good location; just a couple minutes from the train, bus stations and from the center of town and close to the old town. The staff were very friendly and recommended some things we could do/see. The room was very basic which was what we needed and the breakfast was good and included... more

This hotel is located only a few minutes walk from both bus and train stations, very convenient. The manager and reception staff are helpful and friendly; allowed me to check-in early, gave me a town map and phoned my taxi to the airport on departure. The room with ensuite was kept spotlessly clean. My street facing room did get a... more
