Hotel berhampiran Gama Rama, Faro

We paid 176 Euro, incl breakfast for 3 persons for an old hotel with simple furnitures and very small rooms. Sorry, we travel a lot around the world, and can compare price-performance ratios. This price for this room is ridiculous. There is also no pick up service from the airport as announced in trip.com! The service was good, we checked in at 01:30 in the morning. The staff is very friendly. But again not worthy at all. Sorry for this harsh review but we are very disappointed and not sure to use trip.com again.

We stayed here for one night as it’s close to the airport and meant that we could explore a bit of Faro before we left Portugal. It’s in a really good spot, close to the marina and the hotel was easy to find. Rooms are very clean and provide all the amenities you would need, including really good air conditioning!

歐洲連鎖酒店，因為到葡萄牙正好趕上週末，法魯的酒店都不便宜，而且停車是個問題。 這個酒店在高速邊上，高速上有專門的指示牌，一出高速就到，寬大的免費停車場簡直是是自駕旅遊的福音。訂了標間，房間真心很小，但好在麻雀雖小五臟俱全，酒店自帶游泳池，炎熱夏天泡泳池是最好的消暑方式。 酒店位置還行，去海邊開車10分鐘，走路10分鐘，有個大型的shopping mall各種吃的，喝的，品牌店，超市，應有盡有。shopping mall頂層有一家中式自助餐廳，11歐，性價比很高，對於中國胃，可以打打牙祭。相對西班牙，這裏的物價的確低些。

I really enjoyed this hotel. It's a distance from all the faro amenities, but it only a few euros in an Uber to reach the heart of faro. There is a free shuttle bus each morning and evening to take you to and from the faro old town and the beach, but we chose to do things on our own schedule. It was only my son and I who stayed here for 4 nights. We loved how quiet the pool area was, and spent lots of time there. The hotel is basic, but clean and served our needs well. The air conditioning in the room was a must! The rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff were all friendly, particularly the lady working at the bar. The hotel was clean, although a little dated. But that didn't bother us. Breakfast wasn't the best I've seen, but we enjoyed what he ate. Quality of food in general was poor. We had dinner by the pool one night, and it was terrible. But that is the only negative of our holiday. We booked the shuttle bus to take us to the airport after check out. This was a seamless process, and it was very helpful. All in all, we enjoyed our few days spent at hotel Monaco.

Highly recommend. Flawless hotel, excellent service, super friendly staffs, amazing food quality. Every detail of our stay has been incredible. Also a special mention to the extremely helpful reception team. 2am room service is top notch, also one reception lady is so kind, she went above and beyond to help us to find a good Presunto, we will definitely come back because of the great service, which made our holiday stress free and enjoyable

Very clean and new hotel. The carpets in the hallways were brilliant - well thought out to make wheeled suitcases easy to pull; also stylish. Bed was super comfortable, AC very effective, room was kept immaculately clean by friendly cleaning staff. Friendly staff served breakfast and in the roof top bar which was amazing, with 360degree views. Dipping pool and sun loungers were well-used; hard to get a lounger in time! Downside: some very odd management decisions. Despite description on Trip there was no cafe, no lunch or dinner and not even bar snacks! I rang on the 2nd day to ask for a bottle of water … response “Madam, this is a 3* hotel. You only get a bottle of water on your first day”!! Bizarre. I was able to buy a $0.99 bottle from the bar for €2.50! Breakfast: the ubiquitous coffee machine producing the most disgusting coffee - I tried all of them! In the end I risked tea and even the hot water had scum on it. I know I was not alone … bacon - HP sauce standing proud like a statue - no sausages, cooked tomato, fried egg etc! Pancakes and waffles - no syrup! Nice fresh bread rolls and croissants. Sliced cheese and packaged ham. Selection of cereals, orange juice and good selection of fruit. After 5 breakfasts I got fed up. WARNING - I was asked to give them my debit card to pay - she wrote down all the details! After I thought - why? I asked why - she said do they could charge me after I left if anything was missing or broken. I was assured this was legal in Portugal! I told them that was what “checkout” was for! I froze my card but I was really angry and when I have time to get a replacement I will need to cancel it! Balcony nice but only looked onto other rooms! Looking down - WHY NO GARDEN???!!! Just rooftops. I recommend a 4 hour boat trip …. Maybe 30m pleasant walk. Also hire bikes and go to the Nature Reserve - don’t miss Roman Salt Pits and beach crabs ….😊

The hotel is situated a short walk from the centre of Loule. It is a nice, clean hotel with lovely decor and friendly staff. Our room was big, clean and comfortable. The breakfast had a wide variety of choice and was tasty. The only real drawback is the view from our room was uninspiring. Overall, I would definitely stay again and would recommend it.
