4-Star Hotels in Faro District, Portugal

Decent Stay, but Could Be Better for a 4-Star Hotel The Good: • Location: The hotel is in a great spot—just an 8-minute walk from train Station and only 10 minutes by taxi to the airport, making it very convenient for travelers. • Breakfast: One of the best parts of our stay! A great selection of food, and the addition of a piano playing in the background made for a lovely atmosphere. The Not-So-Good: • Bathroom Issues: Unfortunately, the bathroom had a bad smell, which we believe was caused by water collecting under the floor for a long time. The shower design was also frustrating, as water would leak out onto the bathroom and toilet floors. Additionally, the ventilation fan didn’t seem to work well, which made the smell worse. • Construction Noise: This was a major issue. There was loud construction work from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., making it nearly impossible to relax in the hotel during the day. • The overall entrance to the hotel didn’t feel like a typical hotel—it was busy and had a commercial feel, more like entering a shop or mall. We’d rate it 3/5. While the location and breakfast were great, the bathroom issues, construction noise, made it feel below 4-star standards. With better maintenance and some upgrades, this hotel could be much better!

The hotel is a beautiful one, no doubt about it, but there are a few things that I wasn't happy with. It is like most things you need to pay for. Needed to iron my clothes, I was told that I needed to pay for the service due to safety issues. Will get my stuff in 48 hours. If I wanted it earlier, I had to pay more. To get to the beach, I was i formed that I need to pay for a ferry to get me across... all this should have been said before a persons book. The hotel is a secluded, nice area. In order to navigate a taxi is a must unless one wants to walk for 30 minutes in the scrotching sun to catch the train or bus. Uber service is better than the taxi you would get from the airport as it is costly. The food was good, in terms of variety ilI would say no, but it terms of taste yes great. Kudos to the chef. Staff are very helpful and understanding. Some drinks, however, are watered down. I love pina Colada, but wow, i had no clue what I got there. Apart from that, I had a lovely stay, entertainment, the rooftop, top superb ( was there every evening).

I enjoyed a fabulous stay here in Travira. The staff were always smiling, efficient and helpful. Breakfast was excellent and even included champagne. Rooms were quiet and very comfortable. The location was excellent in spite of having an uphill walk from the town. I would definitely stay here again

Lagos is a nice town. The hotel is a relatively large resort hotel in the area. It is like a three-star hotel in Hainan. It is similar to an apartment suite. The bedroom is next to the corridor, which is noisy in the peak season. There are not many people in the off-season. There is free parking around, but because we are afraid of scratches, we still spend 12 euros to park in the underground hotel exclusive parking lot. Don't worry! The breakfast is good, probably because it is a resort hotel. The swimming pool is very good.

Great location, about 10 mins walk to Lagos Old Town and the Lagos Marina. Lots of nice eateries nearby. Emmanuel from the front desk was very helpful to us and showed us the way clearly, recommended some good pastry shops as well. The staff that delivered our dental kits to the room was super unfriendly though.. maybe he just doesn’t like us haha. You can actually get lost in this hotel as it was quite a maze. However the fixtures were so dated and old. The wardrobe in my room was so old it felt like it was going to collapse anytime. There was also a weird super strong chlorine smell in the room and it didn’t dissipate even after a day. Sigh, we realised it could be from the day curtains as they likely had washed it with bleach to remove stains or something.. my husband made a fuss and wanted to change rooms but the hotel seemed full house with tour groups from France, UK and more. Breakfast spread was ok, same food was served for the 2 nights that I stayed. Would be great if they can do some maintainence works such as repainting the entire building. Doors of rooms should be changed too as they were so hard to open and close - you’ll be hearing guests slamming doors to close all the time! Very strange why all of these improvisations were not done when travel was not permitted during COVID times. The hotel would be an absolute beauty otherwise.

The location is a 20-minute drive from Albufeira. It has two outdoor swimming pools, all-inclusive food and drinks, and a great experience. It is more suitable for families with children because there are many activities for children. The restaurant tastes Western style and there are three restaurants.

Good service and elegant and recent room. Little reproaches: no gross mirror in the bathroom, nor a available bathroom shirt. Correct breakfast. You are 10 minutes walk from the beach. If not, a vehicle is essential to move because the area is very quiet.

Not very new, but the location is beautiful. It takes a long time to drive, it is worth a special trip, very close to the Acropolis in the southwestmost corner of continental Europe, and the surfing area, which is impressive

Quiet hotel, 2 minutes from the airport, about 15 minutes from the city center. Spacious room, with a very spacious bathroom too. The only drawbacks regarding the room are the size of the TV (32”, very small) and the fact that the bathroom has a bathtub and not a shower, but in the latter case it is more of a personal taste than anything else.

Charming hotel in the heart of the city, on the main square and just steps from the water. Beautiful facilities and beautifully decorated rooms. Friendly staff. Two swimming pools.
