Alvor Hotel Guide - 4 stars Hotels in Alvor, Portugal

Couldn't believe our luck at getting this hotel in a package deal, expected much worse. Clean room, very freindly staff; they even had a packed dinner for us on arrival, as we were too late for the meal. Hotel and the room spotless, both cleaned daily. Great pool, cleaned every morning, not too busy, no need to reserve a lounger. Pool bar with drinks all day and evening. All the food and drink we could want, but this are Portugese chefs trying to make UK food, so it's not great, only exceptable. We ate out most lunchtimes. A fair distance to beach, but many walked it, we took a cab, they are not that expensive. Pro: Hotel, Staff, Pool, quiet location. Con: Food, distance to beach. Overall, very happy with hotel and would recommend it.

Stayed here many times before. Always have a great stay. Great location wonderful beach. Alvor is a lovely place to unwind.

We had an excellent experience staying at this hotel!!! Clean, friendly staff, very good breakfast. Our room was on the second floor, very spacious with a nice balcony with a pool view. It was nice to have a full equipped kitchen including fridge-freezer, microwave, oven, dishwasher and all the utensils. The staff are very helpful in giving tips and information, I would like to mention Edite, Cláudia, Isabel, Mário, Bela and Fátima, thank you for your kindness (muito obrigada por toda a ajuda e simpatia!). If you are like us (we love visiting different towns and historical places) we would say that in the Algarve you will definitely need to rent a car to visit all the interesting places, otherwise you will do very little. Wi-Fi in the hotel is free just at the reception area, in the rooms you will need to pay for it and also you you will be charged to use the safe in the room. We would recommend this hotel to everyone, and holidays with Expedia are great too, this was our 3rd, thank you!

before I start I will make you aware that I am an ex hotel manager, and I have helped opened 2 4* hotels in the UK and another hotel in Greece. this does pose a problem for me as I constantly look at the finer detail whenever I stay away. However over all the hotel was great and we had a fantastic holiday, we arrived late in the evening and went straight to our room, I had only booked and paid for a studio but the room we got was huge and very comfortable. the hotel was well presented and had some good facilities but needed a little husbandry. meaning that in places it needed a little lick of paint mostly in the corridor areas as there were a lot of scuff marks from the trollies. the pool areas were well kept and good but in the toilets some of the fixtures and fittings were rusty. the gym was adequate for a bit of CV training but was very basic and I felt the games/recreation room was heavily under utilised. that said you wouldn't go there to play games etc but it could be better for the kids. the area was great and there are lots of restaurants and bars to explore. the boat trips were great and reasonably prised but may cost more in the summer months. the area is generally a sleepy fishing village and ideal for families or couples and there is a good bus service to get you to most places for a day out. overall a wonderful holiday and worth a visit.

Everything about our holiday went really well, we both felt the breakfast had improved so much from the year before. Pool and gardens were looked after to an excellent standard. The bar at the end of the day was relaxing with entertainment every night. Superb beech very clean. The hotel is in a perfect location far enough from the town but near enough to walk to, lots of restaurants and bars and also a supermarket very near the hotel. For us this this hotel and location for everything was prefect for us (10 out 10).

Big rooms, clean and modern with 2 LCD TV , private balcony , children play ground , and pool, good breakfast will come back again, thank you .

A lovely trip to a quiet and idyllic stretch of the Algarve. Fantastic facilities, in particular the Atlantic pool with it's sea views. Great access to the beach and plenty of restaurants nearby too. Very much recommended!
