"Firstly, it’s an older building and that adds to the charm, so don’t expect an ultra modern room. The young lady on reception was outstanding, she couldn’t be more helpful when I wanted to connect my Firestick to the room tv to watch live football 😉. Breakfast included was excellent and plentiful and although I never thought we would use it, the food at the Bistro attached to the hotel served really good food - with the bonus of a 15% discount as a hotel guest. Location was perfect for everything Tavira had to offer"

"It’s very central to the restaurants and coffee bars - they are on the same town square. It’s a lovely old building but very modern and clean inside. On arrival the staff were very friendly and smiling and showed us around the property. The room was cleaned very well every day. The breakfast had a great selection, with freshly cooked food and was available from early til 10:30 Would definitely stay at this hotel if in Tavira again."
