Overall Ratings & Reviews Occidental Faro

Nice swimingpool

Ants are in the room. Too small the room. Location is good. Staff are not nice.

Location, location, location. Location of the hotel is good. Never saw the sauna as it wasn’t close to the pool. Staff was good except that the night clerk didn’t suggest the water bottles in the fridge. Hotel looked run-down.

Didnt like the paper cups. Everything else was great.

Great breakfast and roof top view Helpful staff Good location Good hotel

Clean

Very sterile corridors without any artwork. No air circulation in corridors. Noisy streets but service ok and breakfast food. Easy checkin and checkout

Have stayed many times and it's always a good experience.

The town felt old snd the hotel matched it well

Great location for in town. Lovely facilities great rooftop patio.

Great location for the harbour, dining and the train station.

A really excellent hotel, very clean, helpful staff and the pool area and restaurant was very good.

Great location

Clean and comfortable rooms. Great location by the marina within easy walking distance of the cathedral, restaurants, and the meeting place for boat tours. The breakfast staff were excellent particularly the lady who acted as host in the morning. My husband has mobility issues and she was so kind and caring. My only complaint is that the front desk staff could not call a doctor for my husband when he got pneumonia. They just said go to the hospital without offering to call a taxi or anything like that. In Seville, Madeira and Lisbon, the hotels all offered to call a doctor to the hotel.

Great central location, staff amazing, only downside is when rooms are cleaned, between 3-5pm, ours was not cleaned till 5pm.

Our 2nd time staying at the Hotel Faro, and our stay was just as good! Location is great, and the service and staff are top notch - so friendly and professional. The rooftop bar and restaurant is amazing, and the breakfast buffet is probably one of the best buffets I’ve had. Highly recommend the Hotel Faro for a first class stay.

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
