We actually stayed at the Ria Park Hotel & Spa - an upgrade offered by The Ria Park Garden Hotel - and accepted willingly. Slightly disappointed that our room wasn't upgraded as the hotel was very quiet and I had informed them that it was our anniversary. Having said that, we had a lovely stay and the service from all staff was generally excellent. Housekeeping was a little random!

Situated in a quiet area with not much in the surrounding area being accessible by foot but courtesy bus available to shuttle you to the beach. Good breakfast buffet selection and friendly helpful staff.

Superb family friendly setup here, comfortable and very accommodating staff at Ria Park Garden Hotel. Facilities and F&B all very high standard. We will return

Lovely hotel - excellent breakfast - lovely area - beaches lovely and easily accessible Big spacious room but bathroom badly designed. Desk staff a bit unhelpful but bar staff and breakfast staff lovely

Hotel was perfect in all

The hotel is a real surprise! It reminded us of Asian hotels where you are surrounded by palm trees. Reception is light and airy and the staff super efficient

We only stayed one night as we have a Villa nearby. Everywhere was immaculate and the staff were efficient and friendly. Perfect venue for us.

Great hotel with a paradise pool. Quiet, clean and wonderful staff.

The hotel is great, the staff are very friendly and attentive, the food is excellent. There is not much to do in the area, particularly without a car. Reservations are recommended for any of the local restaurants.

We liked our stay. Spacious, clean and great people.

Hotel staff were amazing. I arrived at the beach hotel, I was booked in at garden side. They promptly took me to the right one. Ordered room service. Was plentiful and quick. They have a beach shuttle service and towels at the beach. Only thing I had to pay for sun lounger but the lovely boy at the beach let me pay for half day as I was there that long. Overall I would stay again.

As we were upgraded to the 5star Ria Park Hotel and spa the staff and welcoming could not have been any better. Fantastic stay

Well located, staff very pleasing would be happy to recommend

Lovely hotel, clean friendly and within easy reach of the beach and restaurants

Fantastic weekend at the Ria Park. Room was very comfortable and clean and the food was excellent with good service and friendly staff. Nothing bad to say at all!!

Very comfortable

The hotel was a bit confusing to get to. It is however located in an upscale area of the Algarvae region. The hotel seems a bit dated for the amount charged. The rooms are simple, i.e no frills. Not what I had expected for the cost. The breakfast was very good as well as the food at the restaurant. Concierge was very attentive. Overall, it was a decent experience leaving me a bit underwhelmed

All good

An unusual hotel, with no proper restaurant, but my room was enormous and good facilities. Parking was very limited so sometimes had to park on the street which is not ideal

Quiet location, great breakfast buffet, large pool, and big rooms. Very comfy bed also
