Hotel is Okay and not great.

Hotel is old and things are falling apart. Flush push was not working. Heating was not working. Though staff was helpful and they fixed things. Also i have never stayed in hotel which will charge you for In-room Safe box. Overall stay was okay. But property is in need of upgrade.

So-so stay

I don’t feel it merits a 4star rating. Lacking some amenities. Room floor could’ve been cleaner, very dusty. Hotel a bit far from old town, but got used to the walk. Front desk staff was helpful and friendly. Breakfast buffet was very good. Room was quiet except for when neighbors had tv too loud. Bed was a bit hard, but okay. Couldn’t use the Spa facilities, twice went down and it was full of children. 6 kids in the whirlpool, and lots of yelling and screaming. Spa should be for adults to relax in! Stayed in February, I imagine summer would be impossible. Wouldn’t stay here again.

Ola Albufeira

Excellent hotel with amazing and friendly staff. We really enjoyed our stay there, staff were very helpful. Hotel is located between the old town and new town of Albufeira, so you get to enjoy both areas. There are entertainments every night, organised by their manager known as Marcos, very nice gentleman. Hotel is not noisy at all, even with the nightly entertainments which start from 9pm until 11pm. Breakfast and dinner are lovely and very tasty. We had a great time in Albufeira and the hotel experience was the icing on the cake. We will definitely be returning there in the near future.

Highly recommend

We would highly recommend this hotel. We arrived earlier than check in time; they allowed us to use their amenities and pool while they readied a room. They upgraded our room to a better view. The pool was beautiful, clean, and refreshing. Though it was full, we could always find a place to sit. Staff were super friendly throughout the stay. Breakfast was typical of most hotels offering fresh fruit, croissants, cold cuts, cheese, bread, and granola. The surrounding area was full of places to eat and the hotel was walkable to the beach and tourist attractions. Parking was readily available at the hotel. The room was comfortable, spacious, and clean. Our biggest complaint was the shower which had a tub that was hard to get in/out of and had a small shower.
Meghan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Sure! Here’s a polished version of your hotel review: ⸻ Clean and simple hotel with everything you need. I was traveling solo, but it seemed popular with families—lots of kids around. The pool area was great, and the daytime poolside restaurant had solid options (loved the burgers). My room was clean, though the walls were thin—I could hear doors slamming pretty clearly. Location was convenient, close to fast food spots and a grocery store. Overall, a good budget-friendly stay in Albufeira.
Sabina, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

L’emplacement est idéal pour manger, épicerie et un petit train pour se déplacer. La vieille ville d’albufeira est accessible à pied. Piscine propre, manque quelques places car les gens réservent leur chaise et quitte par la suite aller déjeuner. Je conseille fortement cet hôtel.
Josée, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Ok hotel in good location for the old town. Have stayed here before and definitely needs a revamp it looks tired. The breakfast was not great with basic items not being restocked and staff seemed uninterested.Management really need to get a grip of the problems there. Around the pool the sun beds are well past there best and need replacing and food and beverage prices are crazy high 4euro for a small water 5euro for a coke 6euro for a local beer. Would rate this hotel as no more than a 3 star and would no longer stay here.

Väldigt högljudd frukostmatsal. Infopärm endast på portugisiska! I övrigt trevligt hotell med fint poolområde.
Kenneth, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

We arrived very late. All was satisfactory on check in but the room was so cold. It did have an Air conditioning unit which we used initially to heat the room. The problem was it was on the ground floor facing the road (back of the building) with high hedging . This made it difficult to attract sun into the room We woke feeling very cold. Breakfast was excellent
Sue, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Plenty of good but not perfect

The hotel was in a perfect spot for us, two middle age gents over for the weekend playing some golf. Close enough to the old town craziness for a drink and some food but not on your doorstep. It is also in the perfect spot to pick up the main road and get to the courses. We never waited more than 2min for an Uber. The hotel itself was clean and the breakfast buffet served its purpose. We had the suite room, and for two, it was ridiculously spacious. Only slight gripe with the room was the lighting as it was quite time and only lamps for the bedroom/living room. Other than that I’d say better than a Premier Inn not as nice as Marriott. Now for the cons on our stay. - Steam room was out of service usually not a problem but given it was raining on the Saturday of our stay we did want to make full use of the facilities. - You had to buy and wear a swimming cap to use the indoor pool, I feel if this is a rule it should be stated upfront on the hotels facility listings. - The boiler had broken in the hotel so there was no hot water from 1-4pm during our trip. This was a bit of a pain when I used the gym at lunch and then had to have an ice shower. - Finally there isn’t a single iron in the hotel and for me that’s not good enough for a location with a 4* status. That said the staff were great and did get my few bit ironed in a 4-5hrs turn around granted for a fee. Overall though I would definitely stay again and use as a base for any Algarve golfing trip.

4/10 Fair

Vi bokade ett rum mot poolen men vi fick ett rum mot gatan med mycket störande trafik Rummet var gammalt, stank avlopp, sängarna var stenhårda med äcklig filt som täcke, fåtöljerna var ner suttna, vi hade bokat 4 nätter och var på väg att lämna efter en natt Vi fick ett nytt rum mot poolen som vi betalat för! var fortfarande gammalt men luktade inte avlopp men med samma sängar och filt, trevlig personal som beklagade allt och blev bjuden på middag och dryck en kväll. Jacuzzin kan ni glömma, en jacuzzi på en diameter 1,8m till ett hotel på ca 300 rum är löjligt att ha, inomhus poolen var man tvungen att köpa badmössa för att använda, konstigt? Fin och stor frukost, fint och stort poolområde nära centrum Vid utcheckningen berättade dom att man kan få andra madrasser till sängarna. Tråkigt också att dom krävde betalning för mat och dryck som dom egentligen skulle bjuda på? Det var ju vi som skulle ha ersättning inte dom. Ett fyrstjärnigt hotell som definitivt stjärnorna håller på att slockna, var ett bra hotell för 20 år sedan!

This is not a 4 star hotel. The amenities are in good shape but the rooms are very outdated. For the safety box they charge a fee per day and for the indoor pool you need to wear a head cap which also they sell. The AC does not work, it just throws air but not cold air. We reported this issue and they did not fix it.

Muy buen HOTEL.

Hotel muy bien situado, centro comercial a pocos metros, mucho restaurantes y tiendas justo en frente al cruzar la calle, gran zona de aparcamiento gratuito en la puerta. El bufet del desayuno muy bien, muchos productos muy bien ordenados. Todo muy limpio y muy buen trato. Volveremos.
