Construction taking place in hotel
Unfortunately we were not made aware of construction taking place in the hotel. We would not have booked this hotel if we were made aware. Really disappointed as our restful break wasn't very relaxing.

This property is on the ocean so you can hear the waves from your balcony - which we loved. Views are phenomenal! Easy walk to everything Downtown. Parking is a bit of a nightmare and not right at the property. Overall we were glad to be there!

Good room with good bed but only three pillows. The view was amazing and the breakfast buffet very good. Great,location! Nespresso coffee maker was great but only coffee pods for the first day. Plastic glasses in in plastic wrap. Not very environmental and cheap. I found this quite disappointing for a four star hotel.

Really nice stay here. Can tell it was recently refurbished. Beautiful room looking out onto the beach. Lovely staff and a very convenient area with the strip just around the corner and the beach just behind. Would definitely stay here again. Only thing I would say is rooms are not that sound proof

The hotel itself is fantastic. The staff is second to none.
However, Albufeira has become a party destination best suited for high school/college kids on holiday who just want to get drunk and go to clubs.
