The hotel is lovely and recently renovated. The staff were nice and accommodating. It is very important to understand that this hotel is located directly on the Main Street of old town. It is extremely noisy. Also, our room was a bit weird, as there was no door to the shower.

Hotel lovely location good but level of noise at night was way worse than expected the room was literally on top of nightclubs. Also room very small no storage or anywhere to put clothes. Staff really nice. Apart from noise and small room everything else good. £150 taken from card on check in for security deposit.

The location is right in the heart of the entertainment area of Albufeira…if you are there for the nightlife it’s perfect! Rooms are nice, but you can hear the loud music until quite late at night. Breakfast very good, nice to have laundry facilities, staff helpful.

Fantastic modern contemporary hotel, fresh, clean, as many have said this is in a noisy spot but if you prepared for that it's a great location for everything, food lovely, staff great, would be better if there was a kettle in the room rather than a silly little expresso machine.
