Top 5-Star Hotels in Faro

My wife and I stayed at this Hotel at the start of June 2023 for 5 nights. I cannot be more complimentary about the service we received from reception staff, breakfast staff and the two 'managers'. My wife has limited mobility and would use a wheel chair. Everything possible was done to make her stay as full as possible and our lovely room, at the front of the hotel was full of tech and extremely comfortable. Not a beech hotel but a glorious city break base, and Faro has more to offer than you might think. Many thanks to Ricardo and his team. Apologies if spelling is not perfect.

We loved it - where else could one stay at a former Roman palace for 200 euro a night ?! Beautiful outdoor pool with panoramic view, perfectly manicured garden, excellent breakfast, there is even an exhibition onsite. Our room (superior category) is spacious and also has a balcony , although we spent little time in room, there are gorgeous lounges with antiques and patios with flower garden view. Why would you stay in your room. We recommend 2 night stays and it is wonderful to enjoy the estate and there are SPA treatments, although we did not use it. The only catch is that it is 20 minutes from the beach. If you need to go to old town or beach, you need to drive a car (parking is included with spacious underground parking) or use Uber.

The AP Eva Senses hotel was easily accessible from the airport on the local bus (16). Conveniently placed near the marina/harbour, its centrally located to local cafes, a mcdonalds and a convenience store. The hotel itself has a large entrance hall with self-check-in available to guests. You’ll also find a bar and restaurant on the ground floor. I was assigned to a twin room which was a decent size offering a private shower room and balcony. Unfortunately I discovered multiple cleaning issues which I raised with reception – this included a cigarette filled ashtray, used glasses, stained bedsheets, dusty lampshades and towel rail, however they assisted me promptly and re-allocated me to another room which was a welcomed improvement. Although a 3-star hotel, I did expect the cleaning levels to be slightly better than my experience, but the staff were very helpful with addressing my concerns. Dinner at the Eva restaurant was warm and pleasant, the staff were very attentive, and the food was prepared and served within good time. The continental breakfast was pleasant with pastries, deli meats, fresh fruit, tea and juices. The view from the rooftop was amazing! As a solo traveller, I felt safe and accommodated. Cleanliness was a let-down but my interaction with the staff was positive.

Lovely hotel, with staff that really go out of their way to make your stay special. Free shuttle to beach but remember to book and then we got the ferry back. It was my husbands birthday and they had left a bottle of bubbly on ice and a room with a partial Sea view. The bed was super comfy. The room very clean. Nice hotel decor. The roof top terrace was a must and we used this for drinks before we went out and then for breakfast the following morning which was great. The views are lovely. Hotel is perfectly positioned for restaurants and shops. We used the pool on the roof top terrace and had no problem getting a sunbed. Towels you could either ask for at reception if you needed to take to beach or a towel rack was by the pool (small pool). The lovely reception staff then arranged for our transfer back to airport. Which arrived promptly and was 5 star. Thank you Hotel Faro we will be back!

Budget Hotel Great for overnight stay Friendly Staff Good size clean room with large balcony Some Decor could do with being refreshed but it is a budget hotel Good location in the town and only a short walk to the harbour

Recently refurbished three star property with a four star level of service. While the rooms are small, they are fully equipped and the bathrooms are sparkingly clean. Great air conditioning and good linen and towels. Good shower but sadly with captive liquid soap. Breakfast is the only meal offered but is extremely good even though there are only two hot dishes for us Northern Europeans. Fresh orange juice (whch is wonderful) is available for a small supplement. Given the fact that there's terrific restuarnt across the road (Gimbres by Oleg), the absnce of full meals provision is not noticed. There's s nice lobby bar.

Lovely friendly hotel in quiet area but near Old Town. Rooms nice although see through glass partition to bathroom fortunately with blind. Friendly helpful staff. Good buffet breakfast. No kettle but could access boiling water for 1 euro . NB need to book time slot for breakfast. Nearby cafe and restaurants v good. Good value

Great location, clean, common kitchen with simple stuff, The sound insulation is slightly worse, most of the period of stay are British tourists, almost no noise.
