I choose this will rate hotel as a gift!

The best think about the Faro Hotel and beach club was it's location.. Just on the edge of Old Town across the street from the marina on the main circle in that area. There seemed to be some language challenges and the gentleman at the front desk was a challenge. We arrived at 12:45p after traveling 18 hrs at the hotel and this clerk seemed insulted that we arrived early. He was not helpful with directions to the WC which resulted in me being locked out from the hotels side door Brevard you had to go out the back of the building then into another party of the building. There were few signs finding it and no sign showing how to get back. I did not tell him of this experience then I asked for directions to parking twice and his directions were only clear to him though all I had to do was make a right turn around the building and follow a white P on a blue sign. He seemed offended when I asked a second time.. Then I asked about what to do with the luggage and his answer surprised me.. No Offer to have my luggage tagger from our car but he told us we could bring it in our better yet leave it in the car as the garage was safe.. Imagine this as a beginning to our stay at a 4 Star hotel.. He also suggested we leave so we decided to ask for food recommendations to buy some time.. No suggestions just to go across the street.. Returned at 1:30p after a brief bite to eat and his remark from across the lobby Nothing yet I said I would call if it was ready sooner.. More info later

Rooms were very comfortable and good for a short break. Rooftop bar and restaurant was amazing, with very good choice for breakfast. We didnt have dinner as a set menu with only 3 choices per course. Reception staff were all very attentive and helped us with advice, taxis and bus timetables

Special stay in a lovely location

Great location and views from roof terrace and the room. Breakfast buffet was fresh, lots of choice. Staff were amazing and noticed that one of our party had a Birthday the day of our check in and arranged a lovely surprise of a bottle of Sparkling to be brought to the room. This made an already lovely stay even more special.

Information about the area

Faro, Portugal

The capital and largest city of the Algarve, Faro is the starting point for many northern Europeans' sun holidays. Yet Faro has not been overrun by tourists, it's a large city, and its wonderful beach, floating on an islet outside the town, helps the weary forget their troubles. Despite being just the arrival point for many holidaymakers, with more than 300 days of sunshine a year, it's an enticing city-break destination in its own right. Faro's Old Town is a little gem. It's small, quiet and wonderfully atmospheric. The Cidade Vella is packed with tourists and locals visiting the craft markets or just wandering around looking at the old buildings, many of which show signs of the city’s Moorish ancestry. Leading into Faro’s Old Town stands the Arco da Vila, a gate originally constructed as an arched gateway with a bell tower atop and a statue of the city’s patron saint, St Thomas Aquina. In the centre there is a beautiful square, Largo da Sé that used to be the Roman Forum. It's lined with orange trees and it is flanked by Faro’s Cathedral, the Bishops Palace and a 16th Century convent that is now the Faro Museum of Archaeology. Se Catedral, Faro’s Cathedral, dominates the Old Town. The original Gothic church was built in the 13th century, but was severely damaged during an earthquake. Only the tower and a doorway remains from that era and the temple presents today elements of different styles like Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque. From the tower you can enjoy panoramic views of Faro and the coastline. Faro has a beautiful marina which lies just to the north of the Old Town and is probably the busiest part of the city. The city of Faro is a busy cosmopolitan centre, offering plenty of things to do, whether it's a wander around the shops, relaxing at one of the many pavement cafés, or visiting some of the historic places of interest, this city has much to tempt you off the beach.
