"The room was nice and clean and simply decorated, the bathroom is small but does the job. Cleaners were in every day even for a short stay. The reception staff were very helpful, as a solo traveller, I always look out for this. You can hear the music from the bars below at night but I personally didn’t find it too bad and was able to sleep. Plenty of shops, restaurants and cafes close by for supplies, lunches snd dinners."

Top Albufeira Center Hotel Reviews

Rocamar Exclusive Hotel Spa Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel in a great location."

Alfagar Cerro Malpique

10/10 Excellent

"My friend and I have just got home from 6 nights at Alfagar Cerro Malpique, and we couldn’t be more happy with everything! The staff were lovely - especially Ibrahim, who did everything to make sure our stay was 10/10. He was very accommodating, making sure we were having a great time. The room was super and so spacious, the location was great and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We will 100% be back again. Thank you!!!"

Hotel Mar à Vista

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived with no high expectations as we’d booked quite late on and was one of the cheaper options but were certainly not disappointed. Small and quiet hotel in a nice area (away from the noise but easily walkable to Old Town), small but adequate outside pool with sun beds that were never very busy, friendly staff and nice clean room. Easy 10 min walk to a great beach, the Marina is also only a 15 min walk and worth a visit. Can’t really fault the hotel, you get what you pay for and I’d say this was very good value with a good daily breakfast thrown in."
