This is an airport hotel first. Guests rate it 8.3 out of 10 across 7,380 reviews, and they single out the short, well lit, paved walk to the terminal. Early departures and late arrivals are the obvious use case.
It also suits travellers on a tight budget who want a pool and air conditioning without paying city centre rates. The 3-star rating sets fair expectations.
City break travellers should think twice. Faro's sights are not on the doorstep, and you will rely on buses or taxis. If you want to stroll out of the door into the old town, our Best Value pick is the better match.
Location and getting around
The address is Caixa postal 409-A Estrada nacional 125-10 Montenegro, on the airport side of Faro. Guests like having a supermarket, restaurants and a bus stop for the city within walking distance. The location score is 9.1, which reflects that convenience.
Faro Cathedral is about 3.4 km away, roughly 43 minutes on foot. That is far, so plan on public transport or a taxi. The Church of São Lourenço in Almancil is about 7.1 km, around 89 minutes on foot, and the Roman ruins of Milreu about 9.6 km, around 120 minutes. Both need a car, taxi or public transport.
These walking times are straight-line estimates. Real routes are usually longer.
What guests say
Praise centres on location and airport access. People value the paved, lit path to the terminal and the bus stop nearby for trips into town.
The main complaint is extra costs. Room rates are often seen as fair, but guests find the fees for breakfast and transfers high. Factor those in before you compare prices.
Room size, noise from the road or the airport, and the condition of the rooms have not been assessed. Read recent reviews if those matter to you.
Price and value against our other Faro picks
The reference price was about €69.10 a night, seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults. It is not a live quote. That is about 29% below the sample median of €97.00.
Our Best Value pick, Roots Hotel, was about €97 a night and scores 9.1 with 4 stars. Our Luxury pick, 3HB Faro, a 5-star hotel scoring 9.5, was about €232.85 a night.
So the saving here is roughly €28 a night against Roots Hotel, but you give up a higher guest score and an easier base for sightseeing. Once you add breakfast and any transfer fee, the gap may narrow.
The property lists free Wi-Fi, an outdoor pool, air conditioning, a garden and a terrace. Breakfast is continental and buffet, but inclusion in your rate is not confirmed. Check today's price for your dates.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 7 eligible hotels in Faro. This one shared fifth place on review score, so it is not chosen for having the best reviews.
It is our Budget choice because €69.10 a night was the lowest eligible reference price once the upscale pick was set aside. A score of 8.3 from more than 7,000 reviews is solid for that price.
Before you book
Check whether breakfast is in your rate and what it costs if not, since guests call it expensive. Ask about transfer fees if you plan to use one, though the walk to the terminal may make it unnecessary.
Confirm pool opening times for November, as availability was not checked. Review cancellation terms, which have not been assessed, and check today's price.
