Some of the staff were fantastic while others were rude and it was too much to help you. There are a few dogs in this area roaming the streets and I was attacked on the way to the railway station one morning, by two, made me nervous to go to the bus or railway station. Due to the stone floors... More

This is an excellent example of a 3 star hotel - good basic rooms at a very reasonable price. The location is an easy walk from the train station and to the marina and historic town centre. Breakfast room next to sunny courtyard is very pleasant but I would highly recommend having lunch in the little cafe attached to the... More

We spent 2 nights at Hotel Sol Algarve in late November. Its location was very convenient. Walking distance from the train and bus stations and the center of town. Its staff was friendly and professional. Unfortunately, those were the only positives about the place. We don't know about the state of the other rooms, but our room smelled musty, the... More

This hotel is in an excellent central location. The rooms are very comfortable and really clean. The staff are all so helpful and friendly. Nothing is too much bother. Cindy, the manageress, is always there to make sure guests are happy. She is always prepared to go the extra mile. The breakfast is very nice and the breakfast room is... More

We only had one night at this hotel and chose it because of its location close to the bus and train stations. The people at the front desk were friendly and gave us maps and information about Faro. It had a very nice internal courtyard. Our room 22 was very basic but for the price we didn't mind. However the... More

Thank you for taking the time to comment on the hotel. Regarding the water, I do agree that it is a sad loss of water but the pipe run from the Solar Panels to the taps is quite long and, in winter the water in the pipes cools down quickly. Thankfully,this only happens in winter. We are sorry you were... More

Only stayed one night but were made to feel very welcome. Very friendly and welcoming reception, eager to help. Room very clean and beds comfortable. Deceiving from the front of the hotel as set in a side street and only looks quite small. There is a beautiful courtyard in the middle of the hotel with plants and a fish pond.... More

The hotel was ideally located for us: in central of Faro, easy walking distance to the bus terminal, to the quaint railway station and a bus ride to airport! Roos are nice and staff were very helpful especially in relation to places to visit. We loved the small café’ which serves simple but wholesome meals. Being on a strict budget,... More
