Basic but adequate and reasonable value for money

For what I paid, the accommodation was perfectly adequate but quite basic. Breakfast was the same. Very nice lagoon views. A little climb up and down if you don’t have a car.

Great Value, Great Views, Great Breakfast

Just a one night stay. Superior twin / double with lagoon view. View was impressive. Very short walk to beach. Small room but very comfortable. Juliet balcony so not big enough to sit on but lovely sitting in room with balcony door open looking over lagoon. Excellent breakfast buffet with cooked breakfast options, cold meats, smoked salmon, cereals and fruit. Great value for money in February.

Great view from the hotel, beds were comfortable and great buffet breakfast selection. The cleaning or laundry products used left quite an intense smell in the rooms which wouldn’t go away even with the windows open. The fridges in both our rooms didn’t work which was inconvenient as we had to store medication, and the reception staff member didn’t speak English. The showers also didn’t close properly so a lot of water leaked on the floor.

It is a nice property with multiple buildings on a hill side, and across the street is a large beach, with some good restaurants and an easy to drive road that takes you up or down the coast. Lisbon is only 1 hour's drive away. Has a nice bar with food as well. Nice people around at work!

Beautiful views from the top of INATEL Hotel

Amazing views from this hotel. Well situated on the top of the hill. Breakfast is very good - should try the on-the-spot freshly squeezed orange juice!

Great View/Meh Room!

The property location is amazing, views are awesome. Service is great, everyone was friendly and helpful. I had a room facing the hill (no waterfront/ocean views. Room was clean but decor was utilitarian- basic… reminded me of summer camp. If I ever go again I’d upgrade and get a Oceanfacing/front room so you can wake up to the epic views. I’d stay there again due to its proximity to the beach.

Staff didn't speak nothing else than Portuguese or didn't try to. The building and the room smelled Bleach fairly strongly. The breakfast was very disappointing with light Kool-aid taking the place of orange juice.

Old but good views

Hotel needs some renovation particularly in the common areas. Beautiful views from the car park (stayed in a garden facing room). Breakfast copious.
