Stay Hotel Faro Centro

Hotel was nice, location great and breakfast good. However the lift was not working and hadn’t been for some time. We were not informed of this before our arrival. We are a group of 9 friends, 3 of whom are over 70, 2 who walk with sticks, 1 who has crutches due to an ankle injury and 1 who has an artificial leg and also walks with crutches - the hotel knew about this last disability before we arrived. We were given rooms on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th floor making getting to the rooms extremely difficult for most of our group. We asked while checking in if we could have rooms on lower floors but were told none were available. Surely making guests aware of the issue with the lift beforehand should have been an important consideration for the hotel. I’m glad our trip was only for a few days!

Everything was ok. Very nice breakfast. Good location in the center of the city.

The hotel is close to city center. Service was great. Will stay again next time.

A very good stay in a great location and friendly helpful staff

Overall, it was fine. Not the worst, not the best. Would I stay there again for the same price paid? Probably not. Did I have a super bad experience? No. Could it have been better? Yes. The cleaning staff was super kind. Loved the blackout curtains and tinted windows. AC was on point. However, mattress kept shifting from the bed frame which was super annoying. The sliding door of the wardrobe wouldn’t open/close easily. The shower cubicle was quite small and glass door wouldn’t seal shut properly- as a result water would leak out. Screws of the soap tray and hair dryer were loose. The carpet also needed deep cleaning. They had complimentary kettle and tea in the room (something so basic at that price should not be advertised as “complimentary”). It did not include coffee! If you wanted coffee, you had to go downstairs to their bar to buy it. I mean how much does it cost to add 2 sachets of instant coffee to a complimentary package? In terms of location, there isn’t much to do in Faro. Hotel is few mins walk away from the station but trains don’t run so regularly so it may be better to stay in other areas if you’re looking to do a lot of touristy things.

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
