Decent 2* hotel. Continental breakfast (7€ p.p) with good filtered coffee and separate espresso machine. We were able to park the rental car right outside for free, depending on available spots. There is street parking opposite the building as well. They do have secure parking at the back for a fee.10-15 minute walk to the restaurants/bars/marina in the centre. If you miss breakfast after 10am, there is a café right next door open till 8pm selling sandwiches, pastries and coffees. The receptionist is available 24/7 and you can buy bottled drinks and beer to take to your room, at the in-house bar. The only suggestions I would make are to maybe modernise the bathroom and offer a cooked local sausage, instead of the mini hot dog style, on the breakfast buffet. Will stay here again should we return to Faro. A big thank you to the hotel team... Paul S

I come from a country that has a 17 to 1 exchange rate. If I miss my flight on Friday this will cost me about 1200 euro R 20 000 this is not extra hotel cost etc and all the other costs. So disappointed in the staff at this hotel.

How one person can mess up your perfect holiday in Portugal. I left my passport at Hotel Alnacir in Faro Portugal by mistake. They already had it in their possession why did they make contact to say we left it behind. What the purpose of filling in all the forums ???? I contacted the guys behind the desk and arranged with them to have it sent to my next stay. After two days they still didn’t post it. After phoning a 100 times the guy said it’s not his problem. My flight is booked for a Friday back to South Africa today is Wednesday he only posted the passports at 13 30 and on normal post not even express. Thursday is a public holiday. My question to him was, if he or his kids were in my country and I just said sorry it’s not my fault and just did so little to help another human in such need of help what would he do ......... It’s a disgrace that one human can do such a little for another. I guess it’s a lesson ...... So disappointed!!!!!!!!!

Room was fine for an overnight stay before our flight...could use a little remodelling. Complimentary breakfast buffet was great and is served in a beautiful room downstairs.Hotel staff were very helpful.

A good basic hotel. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing to rave about either - so good 3* value. Close (easy 10 min walk) to the old town, restaurants and marina. View was of the sports centre - if that's yr bag..., lifts are tiny, breakfast was adequate, front desk was "OK". Easy parking outside hotel.

Bare bones hotel but strategically located. Less than 15 minutes from the airport and within 10 minutes from the marina. Plenty of food options within walking distance. The hotel itself needs upgrading. Staff are quite friendly.

Basic hotel really with a price that is high I guess due to proximity to the airport. That said no real complaints.
