Stayed here with work coleagues for 5 days in May. On the plus side: Great location for views. Excelent facilities for sunbathing, swimming pool etc. Room (357)was very clean, big and a great balcony with sun loungers and a fantastic view. Staff were helpfull and friendly. Ate lunch once and that was good enough. Bathroom had great towels and soap... More

First things first – to say this place is in Alghero is a wee bit of miss selling, I feel. It is definitely NOT in Alghero. It is not within walking distance of Alghero. It is about 14km outside of Alghero. Just so you are aware before booking it… That aside this is a very nicely appointed hotel. It feels... More

We stayed at this hotel in May and booked it mainly because of location and views. We weren't disappointed in that respect. The hotel is close to the airport and the city of Alghero, close to two nice beaches (I would recommend you rent a car to get around Sardinia though) and the view on Capo Caccia from our room...

Big hotels - especially by the sea - are normally not my cup of tea for a number of reasons but I have to admit that the view from the rooms and the common spaces is simply wonderful. The bay, the sea, the mountains behind. You can go for a swim in open water or enjoy the swimming with sea... More

My husband and I fell in love with Alghero and Sardinia the first time we went in 2009 and after several visits we decided to hold our wedding there last June. We would like to say a very very belated thank you to Giovanni, the manager at El Faro and all his staff for making our wedding day so special.... More

Excellent place to relax in a fantastic bay in Sardinia. Views from the room are great. Lots of fishes to see under the sea. Breakfast is OK but not exceptional, rooms are clean. Its very romantic, ideal for couples or families which do not need a lot of enterteinment. Actually there is not much else to do other than taking... More

The loction of this hotel is really beautiful, next to a protected natural park, but the hotel is far too expensive for what it is. Total lack of service (no pool service, no spa!!!), staff almost rude (although it was the end of peak season). I won't repeat what other travellers have alrealdy pointed out. Would like to stress that... More

The location of this place is stunning, but the hotel itself could be so much better. Maybe it was because we visited at the end of the peak season, but the staff were very rude and unhelpful. Upon checkin my friend and I were given absolutely no information about what the hotel had to offer, and did not even know... More

First off we have to say that the hotel has a superb position on a promontory and fair weather or foul, the rooms look out onto an impressive sea view. The sounds of the sea are fantastic. However this hotel, which is great, could try a little harder and be fantastic. We had an executive room, the third category up,... More
