This was my 2nd stay here. A lovely place with kind, helpful and local staff. Very well looked after. I was made to feel at home, away from home. :) I like the way they upkeep the portugese algave charm throughout the premises. I had a fantastic seaview and is close to many restaurants, shops and bars. I am hoping to come back soon. Thank you for your kindness

Dear Manny, thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. We are sorry that we did not meet your expectations. Regarding the noise issue, we regret the inconvenience but only if we are informed we can take appropriate action. For this reason, we always ask guests to let us know if something is not right. Indeed, we don’t have dishwasher machine, but we do provide the material needed for washing dishes. As for parking, for maintenance reasons, it is out of service. We don't want guests to leave unsatisfied, when we do everything we can to improve their stay. Best regards, Soldoiro.

Dear Daniel, thank you for your feedback. Apartments are allocated according to what is booked, so if customers want something different from what they booked, there is a fee to be paid. Of the rest that you report in your comment, the colleague who checked you in and even the rest of the staff, did not have any report from you about it, because if we were alerted to this, we would take the necessary measures to resolve the situation in question.

Water Issue
The Apartment was well located and was clean. The only issue I had was , one of the days we didn't have water I had to go to supermarket to buy water for my family to wash and clean their teeth. After they fixed the issue we didn't have hot water and we had to take a shower with cold water. Was so stress for my family.

The hotel is terrible - the heating does not work and there's no way to contact the concierge - we had a terrible experience. Our kids got unwell due to no heating. The hotel did offer us different suites but they were either too small or too smelly. The one we stayed in was the only suitable without heating. On the second day of our stay - we went out to get medicine for children. The cleaning lady came and started banging on the door ringing the buzzer like a mad woman. Our kids got frightened they messaged us and called the police. Unfortunately there were no English speaking staff. When I got to the hotel I saw the cleaning lady trying to get in using keys - I told her off for frightening the kids - when I complained to the hotel manager she blamed us for leaving the kids alone. We then contacted Expedia and requested to get refunded as we no longer wished to stay - due to the poor condition and treatment. The hotel refused to refund us so we are in the process of getting a chargeback from the Bank - never I thought of getting travel insurance in the past due to not experiencing the hell at Apartamentos Soldoiro. Please have travel insurance in hand if you plan to book with this hotel - as its really terrible with terrible management and condition.
Response from Soldoiro on 1 Jan 2024
Dear Shah, we are sorry that did not enjoyed your stay. In any case, we would like to clarify some points.Regarding heating, maintenance checked the air conditioner appliances and they were working. Even so, it was offered you to change apartments, in the same floor and with the same view, which you refused.It was never mentioned that the children had become ill, in fact, when you left them in the apartment alone, you told reception that you had gone to buy bread.When you were at reception in the morning, you were informed that cleaning would be carried out after lunch, so the maid coming to the apartment should be expected.All of our receptionists speak English and are always available to assist guests with whatever is necessary.Best Regards, Soldoiro

Awful stay. The walls are very thin, you can hear everyone speaking in the room next to you. Our neighbours were Partying until 6 am with loud music, screaming, yelling, and pounding on the walls and doors. Called the front desk to complain but that didn’t even help. From 10-6 am there was so much noise even the front desk would be able to hear it and did nothing. Not even just the suite next to us but across from us as well, we could hear. Didn’t get any sleep all 3 nights I’ve stayed there. The maids didn’t come clean our rooms and the place felt dirty when we arrived. Mold Inside the shower and ants all over my suitcase and clothes. Ran out of toilet Paper so I had to go ask for more because there was no maid service. Very unhappy and will no recommend anyone to stay nor will I be visiting again.

We enjoyed our stay in sunny sea view studio. Very clean, basic furnishings, nice soft pillows, rather hard beds. We were unlucky that serious drilling was taking place at the block next door, but we were lucky that the weather was good. There are restaurants very close and lots of very nice ones in 15 minutes walk. Good beach and coastal walks.

I enjoyed my stay in the Soldoiro and couldn't relate to complaints that I had seen in previous reviews. I don't like to be disturbed too often by the staff and I certainly didn't have a problem, in this respect, at the Soldoiro! However, my sheets weren't changed at all during my week long stay and only "one" towel was replaced.

Great location, affordable price, only one person in the counter doing everything including restaurant. The mattress was not good, already sagging and the room smelled smoke, the hotel employee offer to spray, but it does not help much with the smell.

All staff friendly polite and helpful. Speedy assistance in replacing goods and replenishing toilet roll & soap. Maid service every 3 days eg clean towels wash floors/clean toilet and worksurfaces which is efficient as your self catering. Pool area clean and foam mats for comfort on loungers when sunbathing. Positioned 2 mins downhill from beach which has disabled and pushchair access onto beach and 5 min walk uphill and your on "the strip".

The property is within a minutes walk of the beach and 5 mins to restaurants and bars. I was really pleasantly surprised with the soldoiro as i had read some negative reviews but when i arrived my first impression was great and it did not change. The studios while small fulfils your needs, i had one looking at the sea from my balcony. The staff were so friendly and helpful in particular Rute and Beatrice who did all they could to help in any way. I had read that it was quite noise but again i did not have this problem perhaps in high season but as its not on the main strip i dont think so. And there was a stag party staying during my visit and i heard no noise from them. My brother and his wife were also there during my stay and they too would have only positives to say.

The hotel need to be more clear when selling rooms on other websites and specify the deposit that is expected. We checked in and were charged 75E per person which exceeded the total cost of the room for three nights. It made us feel uneasy that at first they insisted that this deposit must be paid in cash. It was not until we insisted that we only had card as we had not bought extra cash to cover this that the manager agreed. We all felt concerned as though there was something underhand with insisting on paying in cash. Upon checkout not all rooms were checked as throughly as others as they stated they would do at check in. The hotel was great for the cost, it is so central and close to both the beach and the strip. Rooms were clean and had everything that you needed. Its a real shame that this deposit situation meant our stay started negatively.

Great location. Short walk to the beach and the strip. Some of the office staff could use some training on basic customer service.

Clean rooms and comfortable beds
On arrival, the hotel had unfortunately had some problems with the room we were supposed to stay in. We were given no option but to check in to a hotel round the corner (it was dirty and had ants everywhere) this meant that we had to check out the next morning and wait again for our room to become available. Other than the 1 hour wait at reception to get this sorted on arrival, when we did get checked in to the correct hotel the following day, the room was clean. We were upgraded to a sea view apartment and offered breakfast.

Dear Ms Rachel, thank you for taking your time to describe your stay with us and your experience. We must apologize for the experience you had, we didn’t intended you to pass through it. Unfortunately we didn’t had the enough conditions to accommodate you in the first night with us, but we manage to find a solution closest possible from us with similar conditions. We´re sorry for this situation and we´re sorry if this didn’t let you enjoy your stay, according your expectations. This was the reason to upgrade you to a different room from what you book and to offer you the breakfast, which we hope, somehow, amended a little bit the whole situation. We appreciate your comment regarding the location, hoping this will be a plus point on favor to your return with us. We do hope you give us another chance of your visit, and if there is something we can do for you then, do not hesitate to contact us directly. Best Regards, Soldoiro

the most noisy hotel
the hotel is on the way to the main beach, which makes the day and night extremely loud and very busy. Hotel service ignores your requests to silence other hotel guests at night. not suitable for rest only for drunken visits. only the cleaning service is good and the rooms are clean. absolutely not recommended for family holidays. I've been in 70 hotels for 4 years, I know what I write!

If you are looking basic , value for money, swimming pool, close to beach, cleaners every 3 days, friendly helpful reception, would recommend. Great power shower & hairdryer. 2 supermarkets across road. We had a lovely sea view balcony and were accommodated first floor as the complex has no lifts.

Room okay, saucepan instead of kettle
Had to hand over 200e as deposit, I had already paid.! Staff left main door wide open and patio doors unlocked. Reception staff wld not admit this until I shamed them into it. Unfriendly, ignorant, sneaky, rude! No transfer from airport to apartment on the 22/08/17 which I booked with EXPEDIA. I tried to contact you and got nothing back. Overall the apartment and lack of transfer on first night left me angry and totally taken for granted.

Way too expansive for what it is
If you want a noisy crowd with lots of night club, it is the right place for you. The hôtel is really basic and way too expensive. The only good thing was the océan view. The check out was terribly long as the lady was not able to give me back the 200$ deposit If I go back to Albufeira i would go in the praia Falesia sera.

Absolute dream!
I don't usually write reviews, but this time I think it's worth it. The location is perfect - 3min. to the beach! The staff were so understanding, friendly and helpful from the second we arrived till the moment we left. The room itself was simply a dream come true - I just wish I could have stayed there permanently. It's definitely not for people looking for 5-star luxury resort, but if you're looking for something down-to-earth and homey - Apartamentos Soldoiro can offer you just that! I simply loved it and I'll definitely return if I have the opportunity. Thank you!
