Marcos Mendes Hotels

"Staff were very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The room ( first floor facing the street) was extremely clean with a comfortable bed, good shower room and very useful, well-equipped kitchen area. Unfortunately, our room was directly opposite to a very bright street light which was on all night and lit up the room despite there being blackout curtains so we didn’t sleep soundly although it wasn’t actually noisy overnight. We would stay there again - good value for money- but only if we could have a room at the back overlooking the little pool. We liked the fact that you could have free coffee from the breakfast room machine at any time of day. "

"Staff were pleasant and welcoming. We checked in quickly and were given earlier access to our room. We have stayed there before in a Marina view room, floor 3, which was lovely. This time I made the mistake of booking a city view room. We were on floor 1, facing the street. The traffic noise was awful and fairly constant. We couldn’t have the window open because of the noise and the hotel policy of no air conditioning in winter months meant it was too warm to sleep well. The room itself was fine. Comfortable bed. Very clean. Good shower room. Breakfast was included and was very good. Plenty of choice. Just avoid city view rooms! "

"The location is great - very central in downtown Faro with lots of cafés and restaurants close by. Hotel is clean and rooms are OK. No pool as it was being repaired. The upstairs terrace bar/restaurant has a fabulous view of Faro and the sunset. Definitely worth checking out. There is no free airport shuttle although they do offer a service (quite expense though). We took an Uber to the airport which was quick, reliable and inexpensive. We were supposed to have a free bottle of wine upon arrival but it was never offered to us."

"Couldn’t really fault this hotel in any way! Staff were absolutely amazing, so friendly and helpful. Rooms spacious, modern and spotlessly clean. Breakfast choices were excellent and the outdoor rooftop pool area was also fabulous. Very centrally located in Faro and would definitely highly recommend to anyone. "

"It was amazing and I will definitely be returning "

"Great property and clean rooms, very close to the beach (on the beach.) Excellent staff and service (although amenities were closed to off season.) "

"Clean room. Just the wardrobes need updating. They don’t go with the rest of the decor"

"Gorgeous setting. Close to town but far enough away to be serene. Super apartment style, amazing grounds and amenities. Better than a hotel for sure. "

"It was first time to be in Portugal but the experience was unforgettable moments in life . The food was good and the welcoming experience was amazing. Will be back soon with our children and also the area was very quite which will be ideal for taking a break from England. "
