Roots Hotel

Fantastic property. Reachable from the airport in about 10 mins by car and located a stone's throw away from Faro's train and bus stations. Faro's Old Town, shops (Spar shop about 3mins round the corner), marina, and other amenities are about 10 mins walking distance. There's a restaurant (Adega Nova) less than 20m from the hotel, great and diverse menu for very affordable prices. The hotel itself is really good, receptionists speak multiple languages (English, Portuguese, and Spanish at least), and are happy to help by calling a taxi for you, for example. There is free coffee and hot chocolate in a little breakfast room just off the reception area. They do offer breakfast but we did not avail of it so can't comment on it. The rooms are ample, with plenty facilities (dishwasher, fridge, kettle, stove, air conditioning, cutlery & crockery, etc.), and the bed was just out of this world comfy. There was a little balcony too. Overall, amazing property, would be happy to stay there again and recommend it to anyone.

Really clean, comfortable room and amazingly quiet. The hotel is in a great spot a few minutes walk from the centre and also bus and train stations. We really enjoyed our stay here with the very friendly staff and lovely environment. We'd definitely stay here again on a return to Faro.

A spotless room with a lovely balcony looking over the pool. Free tea and coffee all day downstairs was a lovely touch. The pool wasn’t headed so took a minute to get used to, but it was nice to cool off from the heat. The staff were excellent and allowed us to check in 3 hours early as our room was ready. The air con worked excellently and it’s great to have a fridge to keep drinks and food cool. Located a couple of minutes walk from the bus and train station, it’s ideal to take small trips. We caught the train to Tavira with ease. It’s also very close to a ***** of restaurants and bars which was handy. Thank you to all staff at roots, you made our holiday very memorable.

Had a rooftop apartment, with a massive terrace overlooking the town. Spotlessly clean, very well equipped, nice little pool, and lovely, relaxing space around it. Great staff, free coffee & tea, perfect location. Price was brilliant for such quality.

Fabulous hotel spoless throughout and of high quality finish very comfy bed and top notch air con we were upgraded to top floor suite with terrace as it was our wedding anniversary the bedroom was tastefully decorated for our arrival thank you to all staff we will definitely stay again

We stayed here for over a week. Business for my husband and a holiday for me. Really an aparthotel, it had a full kitchen and we had a suite which meant my husband could work odd hours without disturbing me. It was sparkling clean and the main cleaner we had was fastidious, I was amazed. The bed was comfortable and the room was very quiet. We had air con but could open balcony doors for fresh air when we wanted and we had a view of the sea. The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful and the outdoor amenities were very nice. A pool and outdoor seating in a nice courtyard. Unlike most hotels, they do not have a breakfast sitting as such but you can order breakfast packs which looked very good ( I don't eat breakfast). The location was excellent, close to the restaurants etc. There was even a laundromat literally one minute's walk away. We did not need a car but parking is available. The only small thing that I could improve is a full ironing board as my linen dresses were hard to iron on the mini board. However, most people don't even iron on holidays and would find the small board adequate. I also loved that the generous bathroom , although no bath, had a magnifying mirror for those of us with old eyes. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again and my husband said he would be sorry to leave this hotel.

This hotel is well located. It’s about 15 minutes by Uber from the airport and about 5 minutes walk from the train and bus stations. It’s a few minutes walk to the old town with many good restaurants and bars. The hotel is clean and the staff very friendly and accommodating. We arrived early and were able to store our bags until the room was available. Staff contacted us to advise when the room was free and we were able to check in early even though we had not requested it Rooms are a good size for two and well maintained. There is a small pool and a nice outdoor seating area. Complimentary coffee was provided during the day. This is one of the better hotels we have stayed at in recent times. Highly recommended.

Superbly situated for travellers as very near to train and bus station. A modern clean hotel with great facilities and nice staff. Room was spacious, clean and very quiet with VERY comfy bed. Lovely outdoor area with a plunge pool and free coffee%tea station

Fabulous hotel in a good location, for the transport links, marina and Old Town. Staff very friendly and helpful. Manuel was a real character and is a credit to the hotel. The rooms were well furnished, very clean and had everything needed for a pleasant stay. The kitchenette is a bonus. We will definitely return. Thank you for making our stay memorable.
