Convient stay for one night prior to an early airport departure. The room was basic and clean and there is an elevator in the building. It was great for my needs.

Clean, but that’s it.
The hotel overall is ok, it’s clean and check-in was friendly, that’s about it though. Everything else is bare bones in the room & bathroom. Breakfast was just not tasty, lots of stale stuff and the eggs had a griddy texture and the coffee was terrible, it tasted like it sat in the container for 3 days/totally burned. The cappuccino maker was not really much better.

Nice hotel but unfriendly and inflexible.
Despite advertising an airport shuttle they did not provide one. Also did not even try to accommodate an early checkin request leaving my elderly mother to sit in the lobby for five hours.

Needed a hotel for one night - it was clean, near the airport, but could do with a good update. Just looked tired. Staff were great. And it was spotlessly clean.

Fairly decent property but, out of the way if you want to visit the City of Faro. The rooms are in good condition and are comfortable. The staff is courteous and very helpful.

The food at the hotel bar was great. While the hotel is a little outside the city center, there is a bus stop 3 minutes from the hotel and you can get downtown in 20-30 minutes for under €3

Only stayed one night. Staff was great. Room was nice, but it was hard to get the air conditioner to totally cool the room, as it only went down to a certain temperature, then would turn off. We picked this option because we had a very early flight out of Faro and it's very close to the airport. Over all good experience and would stay there again.

Stay here only if you need proximity to airport
An old, outdated “motel” feeling place. Dark, dreary and out dated. The “gym” has a couple of ancient pieces of equipment that appear to have been purchased at a garage sale in the 80’s and likely it was done just to say they have a gym. It is unusable and dangerous to work out on. They should close it or significantly upgrade it. The hotel is about a 10 min drive from old town. Despite reserving at Hotel Monaco because it was right next to the airport, it was still a 8-10 mins drive to the airport via small roads. Probably only another 5 mins if you stay in or near Old Town Faro. Their free airport shuttle starts at 8 am so I had to get a Bolt to make my early flight. It was safe, quiet and clean so it had that going for it.
The “stairmaster”
Wobbly treadmill
The one piece of gym equipment- the mat to adjust weights comes ALL the way out and, once in, comes out too much on the other side and gets caught in the chain (see pic below)
Janky and, frankly dangerous, gym equipment

Great hotel. Clean and close to the airport with a free shuttle. Simple breakfast but plenty of food. I would recommend this hotel.
