"We originally booked a studio, but were pleasantly surprised with an upgrade to a two-bedroom apartment. It was very spacious and well maintained. The interior is a little dated in places, but everything was clean and tidy, so this didn’t bother us at all. The beds and bedding were excellent, and the bathroom was great with a good shower. The kitchen is quite basic, but that wasn’t an issue for us. Breakfast is small-scale but well presented, with everything you need. We also enjoyed relaxing...

Top Faro Hotel Reviews

3HB Faro

10/10 Excellent

"There are two things that I was disappointed in about this hotel , the breakfast was mediocre for 5* but mainly they really didn’t cater for gluten intolerance! The other thing was on checking in they take a deposit of 100€ for extras that you sign for ,room service, bar etc ! On checking out we were informed that when a member of staff tried to get extra money from our credit card it was rejected by the bank ?!?!? First of all they could have informed us that our 100€ credit had run out and asked us to top it up , but took it on themselves to try and take it without our permission!! Thankfully the bank did refuse and we had then to be asked for the extra money, not pleased at all !! Apart from that the hotel was nice !"
