Good place to stay to see the south coast of Portugal. Comfy rooms, small parking by the building - available free, but only if there are free spots, so if you get to the hotel late it might be full, but there are lots of free parking spaces at the street behind the building. Close to the sea side. Lots of restaurants arround.

English-like breakfast so food with no tase.. and not much to choose from, zero fresh vegetables, only beans and some mushroom, all tasted the same.

We really loved the amazing location, cleanliness and friendly staff. Everyone was very welcoming and accommodating. Walking distance to the beach was a plus, as well as the quick access to all restaurants and bars. We also loved the generous check-out time, which gave us enough of time to enjoy breakfast and pack our bags before leaving on the last day. The included breakfast was decent. We would 100% recommend this place, especially for those going to Portimão for the Afro Nation festival! :)

There was no table in the bathroom where we could store our toiletries. The price was somewhat high, but that was the case for all accommodations in Portimão during the Afro Nation festival. So when considering the festival aspect, the price was fair for what was included.

The breakfast was perfect for something to eat before we headed out. We loved that the room looked out the beach and that we have the most beautiful view from the balcony! We loved every part of our trip!

We cannot think of anything - it was that great!

Breakfast was excellent, staff were highly efficient and very welcoming. We can’t praise the place enough. The hotel is very centrally located and we will certainly chose this hotel next time we come back to Portimao!

Nothing, value for money was excellent. We were made to feel at home and the staff were very attentive. I particularly liked the location which was very central to all the restaurants and amenities, and the beach. Ideal for a very healthy stay, offering the chance for early walks on the beach to work off any overindulgences at breakfast.

Fantastic location! Couldn’t be better. So close to the beach and away from night clubs. We had a room with sea view which was great! Our daughter loved glass elevator so she could watch the ocean every time we went in. Breakfast was well organised and very peaceful. Carla was absolutely amazing with our daughter and she loved going there every morning! Reception was very helpful with every request. Even when our flight was cancelled and we had to extend our stay they did everything they could do we could stay in our room! And the biggest thank you goes to housekeeping! We are so very grateful for exceptional cleaner we had. Coming back from beach twice a day our room was covered with sand!!! And every day housekeeping Lady made us feel like we are coming to absolutely new room! Such a fantastic feeling😍

There was absolutely nothing that I didn’t like!!! But if I could ask for more it would be a kettle in a room and small swimming pool.

The location is great. Right by the beach and walking distance to various restaurants and bars. Shout-out to "Irelands eye". And 30 min walk to the old part of the city with its authentic businesses. The front desk worker - young man - was very helpful. Room is quite spacious. Interior design of the room is great, very lovely. View was very good (mine was with sea view) considering another hotel in front of it. Everything worked. I skipped breakfast, so I can't comment on it.

The double bed was actually two small beds put together and do I still had to sleep on one side not to feel the split Shower is a bit odd but worked, so...

The appearance of the hotel was quite OK, everything was clean inside, the room was checked every day without asking the staff to do it and things which needed were provided automatically, the AC worked perfectly, the staff was kind and helpful as well, the beach, restaurants and shops were easily accessible, so basically it was OK, good location.

Unfortunately the breakfast selection wasn't wide at all, but I suppose because it is just a 3 star hotel. In the room the shower cabin was too small, but again I suppose because it was just a standard or budget room.
