We enjoyed our stay at this hotel and would recommend it to anyone visiting Faro. Roof terrace is very nice and we were even able to get a sun lounger. Would have liked some shade though, umbrellas please. Had lunch and it was good. Room was spacious, bed comfortable, good sized bathroom and decent shower. Also it’s in a very good location.

The rooftop was great with fab views of the harbour and breakfast was good. The room was basic but comfortable. The pool is quite small and can get a little overcrowded. Excellent spot for visiting Faro. Don’t miss the boat trip on the Ria Formosa. Really worth visiting .

We have stayed at Hotel Faro many times over recent years and generally found it very comfortable. Although some of the rooms are very small, this is manageable for one night. The main issue on this visit was the breakfast offering. Previously this has been excellent but it just wasn't up to thd usual standard this time.
