We did not expect that Albufeira would be such a party town. We booked this hotel on the location and modern look of the hotel. It has a very unusual layout. Built on the hill so they have two elevators” that connect over two floors. You will need to “find” the lower entrance to the hotel amongst the revellers. You need earplugs that the hotel provides to sleep. It is in the middle of all the partying. Be prepared for shouting and loud speakers going on into mid early morning!! Staff were very nice and helpful. Parking far away which the staff direct people to. Safe to park outside for us on the street but it was a walk. It’s a very hilly place however. Nice property but location was not for us. Great if you want to party all night and stumble home.

Was a hidden gem in Albufeira. Was a great location, close to the beach. Conveniently, lower levels were connected to nightlife, while upper levels were well above the streets. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were cleaned thoroughly and daily. Were given a discount in the spa services. Overall would recommended for casual travelers exploring all of Algarve or want a beach getaway.

Rooms were nice. Bonus is that hotel has free laundry room. Pool was freezing (not heated). We were on 9th floor and could still hear party zone outside. Did not realize Albufeira is a mini-Vegas.

Awesome location! The Hotel is modern and very well kept. The staff is off the hook. Unbelievable dining options as well as shopping. If you noticed that I didn’t check quiet is because it is right in the heart of the Night Life. I’m sure that they have rooms on the back that might be quieter. We had an awesome room on the 8th floor that overlooked the pool and the bright beautiful lights of the Avenida.I will definitely be back next year!

Convenient location but parking is a challenge. Also because you are right in the center of old town the noise does go on throughout the night.

Parking was extremely difficult, we had to drive a few circles to just get a chance to unload stuff as there’s no parking options and drivers behind just rudely harass us to drive on. We arrived 3am and almost couldn’t check in due to parking situation. Front desk person only allowed us to use the parking area in the front (at 3am) after we were so frustrated and decided to leave and not check into the hotel. Will not book this hotel again due to their location and inconvenient parking situation. Also there was no VIP room upgrade as I supposed to get according to the booking agency. The room we got was very inconveniently located, we had to take elevator from 8 to 6, then walk through a passage, take another elevator from 6 to 4, walk a long passage to reach a room that you can see a super dirty rooftop outside of the window. Overall this is the wordy hotel experience I’ve ever had after traveling to many countries many locations. Can’t be more disappointed.

This was our first time we stayed in the hotel and it certainly did not disappoint. From check in to check out, our experience was excellent. From funky rooms to the DJ playing by the pool in the afternoon, it really was brilliant. Although located in the centre of the old town and near the night life, the rooms are so well sound proofed we really didn’t hear much of the noise. Nice spa but small. I would definitely recommend this hotel and can’t wait to stay again

We fully enjoyed our stay here. The breakfast every morning was phenomenal, the staff all very friendly and accommodating. Location was so convenient, you can come right out onto the street and there’s a convenience store steps from the entrance! The gym is quite minimal, so we went to the Marina du Albufeira and got a week’s pass at the Luxury Fitness there. The pillows are a bit on the small/soft side, but I’m sure they would have given us extras had we asked (we were always just so tired when we got back to the room!) We also found the room quite soundproof, despite being so close to the busy street and pool.
