hotéis em Portimão

Prós: Everything was amazing.. quiet and peaceful.

Contras: Most shops shut and not many souvenir shops

Prós: Conforto, localização e acessos.

Contras: Pouca luz no corredor do quarto, falta de estacionamento no hotel.

Prós: very friendly staff, location close to shops and restaurants

Contras: Bathroom smell

Prós: Loved everything - the staff, the property, the room and the view from the room. The hotel has a direct access ramp to the beach. Rooms are spacious and well kept. We opted for the breakfast option, and quite liked the spread.

Contras: O pequeno almoço nao correspondeu as expetativas e ao nível do hotel

Prós: Everything

Contras: Liked everything

Prós: We like it all,its a very decent hotel,large bedrooms,nice views and in a good position,we go often because we live in Portugal .

Contras: Would like a little more attention to the food warmth chip and potatoes for instance were on the cold side,no microwaves.

Prós: Very comfy place with huge rooms great view of beach Oriental Moroccan stylish vey impressive Romantic stay i high recommend

Prós: Do quarto confortável , da excelente localização, do staff simpático e profissional

Contras: A falta de reposição de alguns tipos de pão no pequeno almoço

Prós: Very nice hotel in perfect location. Reception staff helpful and extremely nice (Alexandra and Claudio - thank you!). Perfect breakfast with a lot of things to choose. Excelent wifi.

Prós: Quarto espaçoso.

Contras: Camas individuais com os colchões separados causam algum desconforto. Os consumos de bar terem de ser pagos na hora caso não aceda a deixar número de cartão de crédito, o que já não via há algum tempo.

Prós: Profissionalismo e disponibilidade do staff. O staff do hotel, por sua exclusiva iniciativa, presenteou a minha esposa com champanhe e bolo, postos à disposição no nosso quarto, no dia do seu aniversário, o que comemorávamos nesta estadia. Gestos simples mas demonstrativos do excelente profissionalismo e atenção para com os hóspedes.

Contras: Sem comentários negativos

Prós: Nice breakfast with lots of variety. Rooms are spacious. Staff is very friendly, especially Pedro!

Contras: Nothing regarding the hotel itself, but Portimão is run down and dilapidated. This hotel is one of the best on the boardwalk.

Prós: Bed facility very good. Good selection of food at Breakfast time and evening meals .

Contras: N/A

Prós: Lots of choices for breakfast. Lots of restaurants in area. Close to beach!

Contras: Only complaint is- we had a sea view room, but there was a huge video screen right across the street that played 24/7. If you have a sea view room ask to be on a floor higher then 3!

Prós: Each member of my family liked this hotel and condition. We stayed for 3 nights. Next time we would like to come back for more nights. Even it was the end of December from 26 to 29. Dec, the hotel still had a free apartment. Therefore, we asked to change the apartment (to see the seaside), they can suggest us selecting from 3 variants. They also have shown us different kinds of apartments. Finally, we selected an apartment with a city view, due to the difference in price (20 euro per night). But this kind of apartment was a good solution since full time after breakfast till 6 p.m. we were outside, and sunset in December is around 18 p.m. so we could not need to see the seaside from our room in dark ;). The breakfast was excellent! A Many fruits, vegetables, and much different food and kinds of bread, drinks; all were good prepared, very fresh and pleasant serviced. During our stay, the weather was 15-20 degrees and waves were normal, so our child has taken the lessons of surfing close to the hotel and rent all equipment for surfing. The price is very good and the instructors were professional and kind. Due to this reason, we would like to come back to this place again, maybe in the warm season. We have rented a car and the receptionist showed us a free parking place. During winter this free parking (and safety) is close to the hotel. We also see in Portimao, that another part of the beach is not so safety (some strange groups of people ). We would like to come again and stay at this hotel.

Contras: Some children in the hotel were very very noisy, even late evening, they runned in the corridor and in the restaurant (at breakfast time). Nobody from personal stoped them. Parents also never stop them. We were lucky that the room was enough noise proof, so noise from corridor is still acceptable. I suggest putting some information in corridors (no be noisy)

Prós: Very good breakfast, excellent location, spacious and comfort room.

Prós: Location and the whole facilities.

Prós: Everything. Breakfast was exceptional, the staff was more than nice, the room was probably the best room we've ever had. I would reccomend this place to everyone.

Contras: Nothing.

Prós: Very spacious bedrooms. We were 2 adults and our 12 year old son slept on a pull out bed under the sofa which is partinioned off from where the bed is. The room has a small kitchenette with microwave and sink, so it is possible to prepare and eat a simple meal. Hotel clean and buffet breakfast which was included, had plenty of choice. Wide beach with lots of open space and restaurants on the beach. Despite most of these being closed due to be out of season, the ones which were open had great food and drinks at very resonable prices. Great for a hours walk in the sunshine and fresh air.

Contras: None.

Prós: De tudo no geral , desde a limpeza , à simpatia dos funcionários

Prós: Os quartos são agradáveis, tem máquina de café no quarto e a piscina é muito bonita e bem localizada.

Contras: O facto de cobrarem 6€ pelo estacionamento! E logo em época baixa e só tendo usado por 8 horas.

Prós: Very good hotel, excellent breakfast buffet which offered different fresh juices, eggs, pancakes, fruits. Room very clean!!! The hotel is about 10-15 minutes walking distance from city center. Also available is shuttle service to Praia da Rocha. Very good location for exploring Algarve. Car garage costs us 6 EUR/day. I recommend this hotel.

Contras: A bit of noise during the night, since the marina view rooms are very close to a very busy road.

Prós: Pequeno almoço muito bom, boa variadade e bem confeccionado, vista da piscina suberba.

Contras: Ter de pagar para usufruir da piscina interior, foi a primeira vez que me aconteceu.

Prós: we went to atlantico several times and had fab meals

Prós: Estava tudo bom.

Contras: Procedi a uma reclamação porque o funcionário na recepção, cumprindo ordens da administração - conforme apurei junto da vice presidente - apresenta aos clientes uma autorização de crédito mais ou menos mascarada de ficha de hóspede, dizendo apenas "ponha aqui uma assinatura e o seu e.mails por favor", o que considerei uma deslealdade para com os clientes. O espaço para o pequeno almoço e outras refeições é muito exíguo em comparação com a capacidade do hotel. Em consequência, filas de 20 minutos e meia hora para o pequeno almoço, o que não é muito compatível com obrigações de quem viaja em trabalho. Por fim, enganaram-se no registo do valor do jantar e iam-me cobrar o dobro... Um funcionário da sala de jantar fazia comentários de caserna bem audíveis para um colega, sobre uma das senhoras estrangeiras que estava na sala enquanto eu jantava...muito desagradável.

Prós: Its equidistant between the beach and the old town center.

Contras: Breakfast was good , no complaints. A top class restaurant for evening meals would be desirable.

Prós: Location is great, with good views and convienence of being between two towns within easy walking distance. Delux rooms offer best views.

Contras: Room cleaning was always very late in the day, which meant being disturbed by staff having retired to the room having been out all day. It is a very minor thing bit quite disruptive when trying to rest/relax.

Prós: Everything

Contras: Needs a clothes horse on balcony to hang wet towels etc.

Prós: The hotel made for a very central location for our purpose of getting out into the Algarve area. Although we had our own transport! There was a good public transport system in the area. We were very pleased with the staff From reception to restaurant and general staff.

Contras: Personally there wasn’t any thing we could think of.

Prós: Breakfast

Contras: Nothing

Contras: Postura de alguns funcionários.

Prós: Breakfast buffet was huge and there was a chef that made eggs/omelettes. The view of the beach/location was beautiful. Place looks very stylish and high class. Great place to stay!

Contras: Everything was good

Prós: Sua localizacao oerto da Praia do Rocha é muito boa. A equipe do hotel é bem atenciosa e o quarto e banheiro sao de bom tamanho.

Contras: Acho que o banheiro e o quarto sao meio antigos. Poderiam ser atualizados.

Contras: Poor breakfast, coffee was awful, far away from the beach, uncomfortable beds and pillows.

Prós: Accomodation was roomy with a nice balcony overlooking marina.Good breakfast.Hotel bar pleasant.

Prós: Location and cleanliness

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Unidade hoteleira excecionalmente bem localizada. Excelentes instalações e infraestruturas. Piscina e jardim maravilhoso. Pequeno almoco excedeu as expetativas não só pela qualidade como pelo local onde é servido ( deck marina). Recomendo e voltarei.

Contras: Nada a apontar.

Prós: Close to the beach.Friendly staff.

Contras: Friendly staff.Good breakfast collection. Should tell about private pickup from Faro for guests when booking is made. Breakfast should start at 7 AM.

Prós: A localização é sem dúvida divinal tem uma paisagem espectacular... a zona da piscina e do jardim dão saudades do verão....

Contras: Quando se chega ao hotel e se faz o Check in era necessário um acompanhamento até ao quarto não basta a explicação e a entrega de uma folha A4 com o mapa se depois não existem placas informativas... parece um labirinto porque é tudo igual... mesmo para o pequeno almoço não existe nenhuma informação o acesso é pelo jardim .... depois de se saber tudo bem mas a primeira vez é muito complicado mesmo com o mapa na mão... portanto é uma sugestão mais indicações informativas e assim o mapa poderá dar jeito!!! As paredes junto às janelas necessitam de muita reparação a humidade é evidente e os cortinados não podem servir para taparem ... mais manutenção para manter a qualidade imprescindível de um hotel ****. São críticas construtivas e que podem ajudar os hóspedes não são razões impeditivas de voltarmos novamente!

Prós: localização, natureza e sossego.

Contras: hospedes barulhentos na piscinas com colunas de som.

Prós: O pequeno almoço é variado, contudo mais fraco que o do MOOV que é um hotel de 2 estrelas.

Prós: The amazing landscape around and the peace you get with it.

Contras: Breakfast could be more local oriented. English breakfast I would prefer to have in England ;) Not having a jogging route through the nice landscapes without conflicting with the Golf

Prós: An excellent hotel, extremely quiet and very pleasant all round.

Contras: Nothing really, it suited me perfectly.

Prós: Space Cleanliness View Price

Contras: Mattress protectors Wi-fi

Prós: The view from our balcony was great, the size of the room exceeded our expectations, the facilities were very modern, the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was very complete and varied (our favourite things were the omelette station and the nespresso machine!). We were on our honeymoon and the hotel surprised us with a bottle of sparkling wine and some strawberries with chocolate, which was a lovely gesture.

Contras: Even though the hotel was quiet in general, we could hear the people in the room next to us. This hotel would be absolutely perfect if it wasn't for this

Prós: Had a short stay it was nice easy to access.

Contras: Nothing, didn’t stay long enough to fault it if there was any.

Prós: Quarto bem espaçoso, vista incrível para o campo de golf, piscina e infraestrutura muito boa. Não cobram estacionamento. Cafe da manhã muito bom

Contras: Check in tardio, prédios distantes e cama cedeu

Prós: Golf

Contras: Rooms are rubbish... aircon broken... single beds

Prós: Simpatia dos funcionários Pequeno-almoço e jantar com muita variedade

Prós: Out in the countryside so very peaceful. Excellent room, shower, food at dinner, breakfast, parking! Bed and pillows best of any hotel we’ve ever stayed in! Staff very friendly and helpful- nothing too much trouble for them.

Contras: Cannot fault anything.

Prós: Nice relaxing hotels and golf courses but nothing else on offer

Contras: Lacking amenities,place was full but no entertainment,refreshments were very expensive...golf reception were not very helpful.only one bar open at a time and very busy . Golf good but organisation poor ,ladies dont dring heels due to uneven paths and cobbles.

Prós: The staff were brilliant. We arrived late and the guy treated us with the right mix of being friendly without keeping us up longer than necessary. It set the tone for the week, everyone was great, breakfast was good, and a good spot as it was a little quieter than being nearer portimao main town.

Contras: Nothing!

Prós: The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and abundant. There are pleasant terraces to sit and read and drink wine in the evenings! It’s only a few minutes walk to some of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen, and there are plenty of local restaurants. Also the tourist hop-on hop-off bus stops close by which is a very useful way to get about the area - this is how I discovered Alvor, which is really worth a visit. It’s a charming, quiet place, perfect for total relaxation.

Contras: Everything was great!

Prós: Your breakfast was fine, a good amount of choice and plenty of food.

Contras: he dining room was a bit cramped round the hot drink machines.

Prós: Beaches nearby were amazing In general variery at breakfast was good Bed very comfy and shutter for balcony offers extra security

Contras: More remote than i anticipated but its not a bad thing, just be prepared for a walk for dinner etc Hair in the bed and food at breakfast one morning Charging €3 minimum per item for the laundry service is laughable, fair to say i didn't use it

Prós: Room and bathroom clean and new. Good breakfast. Amable staff.

Contras: Actually the only reason that I've booked the room and in particular this hotel was the "sea view" in the description. I have to say that the hotel is not on the beach, you don't see the ocean from the rooms or the hall. If you want to go to the beach is 10 minutes walking, but the streets you have to do are not so nice.

Prós: Pequeno almoço piscina e pessoal

Prós: muito próximo da Praia do Vau, com excelentes instalações e funcionários muito simpáticos e atenciosos.

Contras: De estar constipado e não poder usufruir ao máximo...

Prós: Destaco limpeza, conforto da cama, pequeno-almoço e a simpatia dos funcionários.

Prós: One of my best tour in europe , is Portimao. The 3 days stay at sao roque, was amazing . I would like to thank Isabella for her friendly behavior (who was in the front desk as well as handling all the situations). The staffs were very friendly and supportive and i came to know some of the best beaches of portimao from them. Benagil tour is also possible from portimao by boat. They welcomed us with a free drinks . The room has enough space and clean. breakfast was good. Definitely recommendable. Thanks Madhuparna & Goutam

Prós: Ótimo super aconchegante e muitos simpáticos recomendo

Contras: Nada absolutamente adorei tudo

Prós: hotel owners Isabel and antonio excellent lost my passport which they found would have spent the holiday replacing it, breakfast was continental all you could eat and drink, room compact but clean and tidy with maid service every day to make bed change towels. as the hotel is in a residential area could get noisy early evening but would quieten down later, short walk to pingo supermarket with harbour cafes and shops also bus info office very handy weather great

Prós: The friendliness of the management.

Prós: Very pleasant place to stay at. Staff is exceptionally kind and informative. We came after the midnight and we are offered with a welcome drink, which is a small but very effective gesture. Hotel is older, but very clean. They clean room and change towels every day. Wi-fi works well. Hotel is placed in the quiet neighborhood, on the walking distance from beach and city center. There is a supermarket near hotel too. If you have moderate expectations, this place will be great for you.

Prós: Friendly hosts, good location quite near to the Praia da Rocha and bus stops. They serve nice and cheap breakfast. The rooms are almost fully equipped. The hosts are very helpful and fulfill every wish.

Contras: High stairs without elevator. There is no fridge in the rooms.

Prós: Funcionária 5 estrelas a nível de simpatia e preocupação. Sempre de sorriso no rosto e preocupada com o nosso bem-estar. Pequeno almoço excelente.

Contras: O colchão podia ser melhor mas para 2 noites foi suficiente.

Prós: Very simple and a very good value. Very quiet!

Contras: A bit old.

Prós: Otima recepção. Ambiente familiar. Excelente café da manhã. Muito limpo. Localização excelente.

Prós: Atendimento

Contras: Ter mais variedade no café da manhã.

Prós: + really nice and helpful host + comfortable bed + breakfast for 2 € (it's simple stuff but you won't even get it cheaper in the supermarket)

Contras: - it was quite loud there so I had troubles falling asleep - the bathroom isn't very appealing

Prós: The staff.

Prós: The interior

Prós: The location is great, and the stuff is very kind.

Contras: A little bit unusual thing for me with, something like, common showers that do not have doors. Though, there is one private.

Prós: Lugar impecável, acomodações confortáveis e excelente atendimento.

Contras: Não gostei de ter ficado apenas 4 dias.

Prós: Location was pretty good, close to the bus station from where you can get a bus to the beaches from the south of Portimao. Train station even closer, which is good if you come by train. Place is clean and has 2 bathrooms, we had the 2 beds room with balcony. Kitchen available if you want to eat in, with all amenities included. A/c was good and we had two small lockers for our stuff. Was not crowded when we were there so we didn't feel that we were in a hostel. Around it there are lots of small shops for souvenirs/clothes/farmacy/groceries/minimarkets/restaurants and walking distance to the mall (about 10-15min).

Prós: Localização muito boa e limpeza.

Contras: nada a assinalar

Prós: Da localização por referência aos meus interesses que não eram a praia.

Contras: Nada de negativo a referir.

Prós: Localização

Contras: Casa de banho comun

Prós: The area

Contras: The noise

Prós: Friendly staff, clean rooms and good price!

Prós: Very well located, just in front of the beach; Perfect for some vacations with small children because beach and pool are perfect to entertain them. If this is not enough, there is also a small park for them to play;

Contras: Buildings are a bit old and an overall remake of the apartments would be advised; Even though cooking is possible, if you want to eat out, there are some restaurants nearby but a wider variety would require some sort of transportation;

Prós: Localização junto da praia e simpatia dos funcionários .

Contras: Preço exagerado para a qualidade do apartamento, nomeadamente o mobiliário apresentar aspecto gasto fruto do uso não compatível com uma unidade hoteleira com 4*, falta de algumas louças e acessório cozinha. Foram repostos rapidamente quando reclamado junto da recepção. Piscina sem cadeiras disponíveis antes das 10h00 fruto da reserva / ocupação pelos hóspedes com toalhas. Sem possibilidade de carga para veículos elétricos.

Prós: Very Clean place. Inside pool very good condition.

Prós: Very spacious and clean - excellent location.

Contras: The pilow was too soft and unconfortable to me, and I am sure it would be changed in case we complained, but as it was only 1 night stand I didn't. It was quite noisy early in the morning, I believe this is because the bedroom was on the ground floor, facing the main road.

Prós: I liked the location of the property. Beyond that there was little to like.

Contras: This aparthotel needs to have a major renovation. It’s at least 25 years overdue. The inside of the room was not only severely dated, it was dirty and uncomfortable. The master bed mattress was so thin and barren that I got poked with springs all night long. The pull out sofa bed with its 3 inch thick mattress my 5-year-old slept on was actually more comfortable. My kids feet were black if they didn’t wear their shoes in the room. There were black hairs behind the bathroom door (we are blondes and brunettes), a giant hairball in the kitchen. There were no toiletries, the washer/dryer barely worked (I had to hang every piece of laundry I washed), no detergent to wash any dishes we used. The walls of the room were paper thin and we could hear road noise and the 11 pm dumpster pick up like it was in the room with us. The WiFi signal was unreliable and weak. The main pool was frigid and the most shallow point as over 5ft deep. My kids are great swimmers, but the pool wasn’t enjoyable because they couldn’t touch anywhere and we were told no floats were allowed. They did have two kiddie pools but they were tiny and only 1.5 ft deep., which weren’t much fun for the 8 and 9 year olds. We had breakfast on site once, and that was enough. The food was not good. We also ate at the pool bar one afternoon. We sat down at 11:58 and the waiter promptly told us they didn’t serve lunch until 12. I said that is only two minutes away, so I think we can wait. Well, the food again wasn’t good and the whole process took 2 hours!! Ridiculous amount of time for chicken nuggets and burgers to be served and eaten. Overall the hotel was run down, uncomfortable and unfriendly. I would look elsewhere. Conversely we stayed at Martinhal Chiado aparthotel while in Lisbon and it was outstanding. Clean, awesome service, comfortable. Wish we would have chosen their Sagres location for the second half of our trip.

Prós: Piscina interior e jacuzzi espectaculares, simpatia dos funcionários, proximidade da praia, apartamento bem climatizado com dois ar condicionados, sem duvida alguma que irei voltar brevemente!!!!!!!

Contras: A cozinha devia ter um móvel para guardar mercearia

Prós: Great location. Very clean and comfortable. The apartment is huge (perfect with children)

Contras: There is no Washing machine in the apartment.

Prós: É um hotel familiar. Nos apartamentos tem tudo o que necessitamos. Muito disponíveis e atenciosos. Espaço exterior excelente com parque e área em relva para as crianças. Tem piscina e acesso direto à praia.

Prós: Gostei bastante da localização.

Contras: Não gostei da descrição da reserva dizer que incluía confre se ele tinha que pagar. Isso deveria estar claro como um extra no quarto, e não como incluso na reserva. Desde o início deveria estar claro que era um serviço a ser pago.

Prós: Da localização e do apartamento em si, eram bons!

Contras: A informação de que o spa e piscina interior, não estaria aberto aos domingos, deixou nos aborrecidos, pois tinha sido esse o motivo da nossa ida a hotel! Assim não podemos usufruir dos mesmos!

Prós: Praticamente de tudo,é um espaço muito bonito. Com os campos de golfe junto ao hotel,muito bem tratados.

Contras: Nada que justifique,um comentário menos bom

Prós: Mto bom! Atendimento profissional de excelência !

Prós: Muito bom hotel

Contras: Nada

Prós: The hotel still has an old style elegance. The breakfast buffet is great. The rooms each have a Nespresso machine, only remember to bring your preferred capsules as choice is limited. The staff are friendly and attentive. The Championship course still challenges all but the best of golfers.

Contras: Watch out for the wine list, which is not accurate, especially if you are a stickler for a particular vintage.

Prós: Great massages. Great pool. Tranquil and friendly. 4th time here- we love it!

Contras: Pool and pool bar shutting before sunset

Prós: Nice pool , lovely grounds , nice waiting staff in the dining room ., helpful room service , had to request for a kettle .

Contras: Staff could be abrupt and not very helpful on reception , didn’t really want to help so I didn’t feel that they treated myself and family with any enthusiasm and didn’t take any interest in our vacation .

Prós: Gosto de tudo. Conheço o hotel á 50 anos

Contras: No Bar Henry Cotton lentidão da Cozinha e funcionários mais antigos muito pouco simpáticos. Infelizmente é um problema que se arrasta há anos.

Prós: Restaurante

Contras: Do serviço de recepção.

Prós: O Hotel Penina sempre foi um Icon do Algarve, ideal para famílias ou quem queria ir jogar golfe. A piscina é enorme, virada a sul com sol todo o dia. Tem um Bus para ir e vir para a praia e um Bar/Restaurante na praia. Tem cadeiras privativas e toalhas na praia para os hospedes, não precisa de levar. O pequeno-almoço tem uma boa diversidade de produtos. Oferecem café e água no quarto e um menu para crianças até aos 12 anos quando acompanhada pelos pais.

Contras: Infelizmente não gostei nada do atendimento do pessoal do F&B de uma forma geral, excluindo o Bar da Praia! Acho fundamental ter equipas treinadas e motivadas no F&B, pois é onde os hospedes passam mais tempo durante a sua estadia! De uma forma geral os Funcionários andavam com as fardas sujas e todos com uniformes diferentes, muito críticos com colegas em frente aos clientes, sorriso fraco ou zero (excluindo a Senhora que estava na recepção dos pequenos-almoços tem um sorriso simpático), mesas com acumulação de loiça suja, entre outras. Ao pequeno-almoço tem muito barulho e confusão. A matéria prima utilizada na confecção podia ser melhor para o preço praticado. O edifício está a precisar de umas renovações.

Prós: Dos empregados

Contras: O hotel com alguns bons anos . Precisa de algumas restaurações. O preco tambem um pouco elevado para o fim do mês de novembro. Tinha outra ideia. Da qualidade do hotel

Prós: The surroundings, the terraces, the restaurants

Contras: Not easy access to the coast

Prós: Breakfast - Great Staff - Fantastic

Contras: nothing

Prós: Very spacious Rooms Exceptionally clean and very relaxing pool area

Contras: Its a good 10 minute walk into village downhill. Which was fine for us as we like walking. But no good for travellers with problems getting about walking. Although taxi only €4 into village and €4 back up to hotel

Prós: Everything was very good

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Boa localização.

Contras: A qualidade dos sumos, no pequeno-almoço, baixou um pouco, relativamente `a anterior estadia.

Prós: Vey friendly staff. Very clean and comfortable. Plenty of choice at breakfast

Contras: nothing

Prós: Bom pequeno almoço, sossego e limpeza das instalações.

Contras: Utilização de toalhas de piscina sujeito a pagamento. Sofá cama muito desconfortável, mesmo para crianças.

Prós: Simpatia funcionários

Contras: Horário Piscina

Prós: Fantastic property both inside and out. Lovely pool area, clean open rooms. I would highly recommend a “sea view” room. Free parking outside. A full supermarket about 5 mins walk away.

Contras: It was just a little bit a of a walk from the village of Alvor, about 10 minutes if you walk fast. We were a couple, I wouldn’t like to be a family without a car bringing all your bag and baggage (and kids) down to the beach. Also one thing which I thought was really annoying. I spent ages trying to turn on the oven in the room to no avail. I read the booklet back to front in the room and it just gave instructions for the hob (which didn’t work either). My last resort was to ring reception to which I got “Did you pay?” .... very confused I reply “Did I pay for what?” To which I got a snide reply of “You must pay 3euro per day to use the oven”. To be honest it’s not entirely the fact that you have to pay for the oven, (We are in another hotel now for the next part of our stay and the oven works for free!) it was more that no where in any of the literature does it say or was it mentioned at check in that you must pay for the oven. Such a silly thing to leave a bad taste in my mouth after our Lovely stay.

Prós: Funcionários simpáticos e prestativos no geral, em especial a funcionária de animação infantil Espaço da piscina limpo e suficiente para a qualidade de hóspedes

Contras: Limpeza poderia ser melhor As camas não são confortáveis

Prós: Pequeno Almoço Piscina Estacionamento

Contras: Cheiro a mofo no quarto Paredes com humidade

Prós: Pequeno almoço excelente. Apartamento bem equipado. Limpeza.

Contras: Nada a apontar

Prós: Great beach location. Great property. Fantastic views. Convenient location for restaurants and bars.

Prós: Ficamos francamente bem impressionados. Relação preço qualidade excepcional.

Prós: The staff, fantastic location!!

Prós: Friendly staff

Contras: The toilet in the room was broken and I had to call maintenance twice in 12 hours. The hotel gym was under renovation and not available tog guests, and there was no arrangement with another hotel to use their gym. The roof in the ground floor hallway was leaking so we had to walk around buckets of water.

Prós: Como sempre, achei tudo ótimo. Muita simpatia e conforto.

Contras: De nada. Achei tudo muito bom.

Prós: Regardless of some negative reviews we decided to try this hotel for ourselves. It was among other few pet friendly hotels. Thank God there are still businesses and people who don’t hate dogs in Portugal. Majority of the time dogs are not allowed anywhere here. We fell in love with this hotel. It’s well run, clean, friendly, prime location, plentiful breakfast options, spa. Have no regrets or complaints. Will come back here definitely.

Prós: location

Contras: poor breakfast old facilities

Prós: O carinho e atenção dos funcionários.

Prós: Location

Contras: Garage outside of The Hotel

Prós: Excelente Pequeno Almoço.

Contras: Barulho da rua.

Prós: Vista deslumbrante da sala de jantar e esplanada. Pequeno-almoço com grande variedade de opções e boa qualidade dos alimentos. Hotel com charme e muito bem localizado. A disponibilidade de estacionamento gratuito, em parque fechado e relativamente próximo, foi um fator importante na escolha do hotel. A amabilidade dos funcionários também foi uma agradável surpresa, não muito frequente na hotelaria portuguesa.

Prós: Nice hotel with a good location. Clean room with a comfortable bed and a big balcony with sea view.

Contras: In a five star hotel they should not have brown blankets on the bed anymore. Hairdryer very poor quality.

Prós: Liked everything.

Contras: nothing to dislike.

Prós: Very big rooms!!! The beach is few minutes walking

Contras: Quite Old furniture and the cleanest wasn’t excellent .

Prós: Era um local bonito, mesmo junto ao mar.

Contras: O ar condicionado não aquecia o suficiente e como era inverno estava frio. O termo acumulador da água era pequeno para três pessoas e duas crianças tomarem banho de seguida.

Prós: Apartamentos de frente para a praia, super cómodo e prático. A piscina é ótima também. Adoramos, voltaremos certamente!

Prós: Localização

Contras: Ar condicionado fraco, não consegue aquecer o apartamento

Prós: I very much enjoy the area of Praia do Vau. Coral is nicely located with easy access to the beach and to local restaurants. The staff was most pleasant and helpful.

Contras: There really is nothing not to like for me. I enjoy the area, walking on the beach, etc.

Prós: Have stopped at the coral many times Maria and all the staff are always helpful would recommend the place to anyone. Praia da Rocha Portimao and alvor are all short taxi rides away.

Prós: Plenty of space and the lady in reception was so helpful

Prós: Very close to the beach Praia do Vau, easily walk to Praia da Rocha and Alvor. The property was ok clean but shabby. Maria at the front desk was wonderful and a great help.

Contras: Property is dated and needs refurbished.

Prós: Location and parking

Contras: Nothing

Contras: Whilst the accommodation is dated it’s a great place to stay, convenient for the beaches and buses and the staff are great too.

Prós: Um espaço bastante amplo mas acolhedor, com boas condições tanto a nível de comodidade como de equipamento elétrico

Contras: Alguns defeitos de colocação de estruturas, nomeadamente o suporte de chuveiro

Prós: I totally recommend Aloha hostel!

Prós: Beautiful place, with a very nice personel.

Prós: A quando da chegada da simpatia e disponibilidade do pai do Dono, que nota se que é uma pessoa com bondade e gosto pela vida e de tudo fez para nos sentirmos bem. Um hostel bastante sossegado e bem localizado

Contras: Limpeza, ou falta dela. Eu sei que é um hostel mas acho que não tem que significar falta de limpeza principalmente na zona da cozinha e casas de banho, cheguei a tomar banho e ver baratas a passar ou pelo chão ou parede(sou contra matar animais e se calhar eram hóspedes ) a falta de privacidade nos chuveiros também foi algo que não me agradou muito pessoalmente. Não haver ninguem na recepção durante uma semana foi no mínimo difirente.

Prós: Vasco the owner is a super adorable person. Thank you to him for his kindness and welcome. Hope to come back one day. I highly recommend this lovely place !

Prós: The owner is super nice and ready to help.

Contras: Casa de banho com limpeza por fazer.

Prós: A localização é excelente. A cama era muito confortável.

Contras: O quarto de casal não tem nada que bloqueie a luz da janela! A limpeza dos espaços comuns (especialmente da casa de banho) precisa de ser feita com maior regularidade. Como o nosso quarto estava situado entre a cozinha e a casa de banho, ouvimos muito barulho - durante a noite com as pessoas que chegam tarde e durante a manhã com as pessoas que acordam cedo.

Prós: Atendimento

Contras: Quarto sem ar-condicionado

Prós: Host speaks English and is super nice! Very helpful and friendly. Hostel is cosy, cool designed, has everything you need. Placed in a center of Portimão (old town), 350 m away you can park your car for free. I recommend staying here!

Contras: The place, especially shower cabins and fridge, needs some fixing and plenty of cleaning!

Prós: Pelo preço, as condições justificaram-se dentro do possível, gostei da localização que ficava próximo do meu objectivo que era participar numa prova que se realizou da Meia Maratona, facultou-me bastante estar perto de quase tudo, restaurantes, pingo doce e a Marina de Portimão e perto do Portico onde se realizou a prova. Não tinha pequeno almoço, mas pelo preço tambem foi aceitavel e justificou bastante as condições a nivel de acolhimento

Prós: Great place to stay! Very welcoming. I loved it! :)

Prós: O Vasco é muito simpático. É da simplicidade de todo o processo de check in e check out. Adorei!

Contras: Acho que os outros hóspedes não gostam de conservar o ambiente limpinho... Mas a culpa não é do Hostel, é de quem não cumpre as regras da boa convivência!!

Prós: A localização é excelente para quem gosta de ficar junto á praia, a relação qualidade preço é satisfatória tendo em conta que não estamos a falar em luxo. Aconselho...

Contras: O pequeno almoço poderia ser mais variado com mais opções e os quartos deveriam ter mais tomadas disponiveis pois tive que desligar os candeiros das mesas de cabeceira para carregamento de telemoveis e outros.

Prós: O atendimento na recepção foi atencioso, a limpeza e a localização agradável.

Contras: Pequeno-almoço muito fraco e com muita confusão. O quarto tinha um cheiro pouco agradável que parecia esgoto. Almofadas sem qualquer volume. Quartos antigos, a precisar de restruturação.

Prós: Tudo o resto tranquilo.

Contras: Do cheiro do quarto

Prós: The staff were all superb. The location is excellent. The hotel is very good for a smaller budget, if you want to stay on the main Praia strip.

Contras: There was no pool

Prós: localização, equipe

Contras: café da manhã simples, suco muito artificial, café ruim

Prós: Sunshing and location

Contras: Very central abd near the Beach

Prós: Lovely clean and spacious room.Housekeeping was excellent

Contras: No tea/coffee making facilities in the rooms. Had to ask at reception for an Iron and was informed I would have to leave it back as soon as I was finished with it. When it did arrive in my room there was no Ironing board.

Prós: De tudo em geral.

Contras: Do piaçaba colocado demasiadamente perto das toalhas de rosto.

Prós: Staff courtesy. Dinners.

Contras: Breakfast should be improved in choice. Bedding poor (old and poor quality)

Contras: Quarto a precisar de ser renovado e cheirava mal. Para quem vai em trabalho como eu fui é necessário ter uma pequena secretaria para usar o computador e trabalhar. Podiam substituir pelo móvel pequeno que lá se encontrava...

Prós: Very welcoming,nice location and cheap,clean everyday,good value
