For value for money the Hotel Vila Recife was a great stay. Extremely close to the beach and authentic restaurants. Continental breakfast very good and staff helpful and pleasant .Hotel Vila Recife is an older style hotel with character but equipped with good air conditioning.

Very relaxed but efficient hotel. Lovely staff. Great location. Lovely holiday.

Arrived late first day given room 508 by possibly the night porter basically a 1 star room in the apex of the roof in the original building next day asked for a room change and was assigned room 503 a more modern room with a small balcony comfortable and clean in the modern extension to the original building. Breakfast was good and staff are excellent

L’emplacement est parfait tout est près. La chambre est propre, très bon service. Pourrait être rafraîchit mais vraiment bien comme endroit. Déjeuner continental sur place ainsi que service de bar et belle terrasse.

Fantastic location in Albufeira Old Town. Easy walk to everything including the beach but without it being in the heart of the lively nightlife. Very clean property, staff all really pleasant and helpful. Check-in was a little slow as only one staff member at a time on reception. Room was nice, bed comfy and a small balcony with a sea view and views to the square. Breakfast was fine for us - continental with some hot options. Kept us going for the day. Pleasant courtyard area to the front of the hotel. We didn’t use the pool as we prefer to spend our days on the beach. Overall a lovely hotel which offered excellent value for money and was ideal for our short stay. Thank you

Great location in the Old City, we could walk to the beach, restaurants, and had access to all transportation easily!

The room was lovely and spacious and clean and comfortable. The shower was lovely. Only thing missing was a full length mirror.

Breakfast was continental.looked nice but i prefer an english breaky lol. Our view was over another hotel.but still pleasent.staff were lovely

An okay hotel for the price paid, really well located for everything. I like that they take a deposit and be clear to guests about noise and disruption - it was very quiet at night which isn't often the case with Albufeira hotels. Good roof terraces and pool. Disliked - reception (AM) taking really, really long to do check in process -passport/tax/give you room info. They talked between themselves and gave the impression you were inconveniencing them by arriving on an early flight. The only option to leave bags was for them to be left openly in reception area which is common, but really not great. A lack of recycling bins in room/hotel.

We booked through hotels.com,a 4 night stay at this hotel. On arrival, we were informed that our room was in the "heritage" part of the hotel. After 1 night we requested to change rooms due to the very strong and noxious smell of cleaning substance, used, we suspect to mask the smell of something else. The receptionist was annoyed by our request, because the cleaners had finished for the day, and that she would not be able to"let the room" We eventually were offered another room, above the one we were in, but declined as it was worse than what we had. We requested a room in the newer part of the hotel, but were informed that these were for Jet2 customers only. This hotel is an absolute disgrace, in its appearance and deception, and it's attitude to hotels.com customers. I would like a full refund, but I don't think I am going to get anything after this review.

Check in staff at the counter were nice and helpful. The room was old and a smoker’s room. No hair dryer in the bathroom and tight bathroom. It needs to be renovated.

Hotel rooms and bathrooms are very dated. Unpleasant odours filled the room and corridors almost daily (I guess from the drains). No kettle, hairdryer or iron in the room although are available from reception. Very noisy with it being a popular location for cheap and cheerful stags and hens, which makes for an uncomfortable nights sleep with people knocking on doors all night long. Reception only give one key per room which causes problems with drunk people going back to the room at different times

Clean, helpful staff, good value for money. Pool was great. Breakfast was a bit repetitive if staying multiple days.

Recommend

Great location, lovely building ,Breakfast good, Staff very helpful really enjoyable stay

Prefect location to explore the albufiera like - beach, old Town, marina. Friendly staff, clean room, pool, prefect hotel to enjoying vacation in albufiera.

Basic budget hotel offering unappetising budget breakfast. Noise nightly from pounding music from disco up to 4am causing sleep disturbance. Shame as Albefeira spoilt by loud music being allowed to be played until 4 am each night.

La gente de la recepcion genial. La habitación muy pequeña, y con cierta falta de mantenimiento. La ubicacion del hotel buenísima.

Very friendly staff. Great time will go back.

The staff were very friendly and accomadating.
