Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was lovely but needed some TLC, with excellent views and a terrific pool area. The rooms were a bit dated and in need of a refresh, and some aspects like the uncomfortable beds and poor heating were disappointing. The service was a mix of friendly and helpful staff, with some exceptions. The dining experience was average with a continental breakfast. Overall, the hotel had both positive and negative aspects to consider.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, although lacking privacy in my location, were comfortable and had all the essentials for a night's stay. I did wish for more amenities like comfortable chairs and additional storage in the bathroom. The service was friendly but seemed overwhelmed at reception. The location was excellent, offering easy access to Silves and boasting stunning views of the town and castle. The dining experience was passable with a basic continental buffet. The hotel facilities met my needs adequately.
The hotel is ideally located for exploring Silves with its close proximity to the castle and many restaurants in town. The rooms were a bit worn and lacked charm, but offered a nice view of the old town. The service was a mix of accommodating and slightly aggressive encounters. The location provided superb views from the terrace to the castle but had a few minor drawbacks. The dining options were simple with a limited selection, and the facilities were basic.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were large with a balcony and a view of the castle, clean, and the beds were comfy. However, the staff seemed very tired and dull at times.
The hotel offers a wonderful view but the rooms are a bit basic with limited breakfast selection. My stay started with a less ideal room view but was later changed to a room overlooking Silves and the castle. The room had some drawbacks like a stale tobacco smell, poor heating, uncomfortable beds, and various maintenance issues, along with low-quality breakfast offerings.
