the hotel was situated in a fantastic place, on the beach. the bar was overlooking the beach as was the restaurant, they were both very good. Our rooms were very clean if small with small windows, the air conditioning gave lots of problems. Unfortunately our rooms did not have balconys and were overlooking the backyard. Seaview rooms came at an... More

We have just returned from a 3 night stay at the Holiday Inn Algarve, which we had booked for a quick getaway to celebrate a special occassion. The hotel is in an amazing location on the beach and offers sea view rooms, which are a must. We had a top floor sea view executive room, which offered stunning views! The... More

the only reason this hotel is no1 in armacao is that it would appear to be the only one there. others are aparthotels. it does not to my mind warrant 4 stars but 3 at a push. rooms are not very large and the balcony is aprox 3ft square with metal chairs(nice when it's very hot) and a damaged table....

Just returned after a lovely relaxing week at this hotel. We had a room on the fourth floor with a sea view which is a must. The balcony was very small, but adequate for a weeks stay. We stayed on a room only basis, with the option of eating in the restaurant if we so wanted. There are so many... More

The Holiday Inn Algarve is hard to beat in many ways. The location is 2nd to none, sitting right on the beach at the beginning of the pedestrianised area of Armacao De Pera. Our sea-facing room had a superb view of the beach and towards the town. The balconies are small, but perfectly adequate for a short stay. The hotel... More

I recommend this hotel but you must have a sea view room 3to 5 floors best but second okay.The room we had was on the second floor but higher would give a better view, the room was large and so was the bathroom, clean and nicely furnished with coffee and tea tray. The re is a fridge for you cold... More

We booked this holiday as it was "A Great Getaway" in conjunction with British Airways and Saga. I personally, am not enamoured of Saga but the hotel looked to be in a good location. This indeed it was and could not be faulted for location. However, the room was small and the bathroom miniscule (found a cockroach in room one... More

A last minute decision when the Saga holiday sheet arrived. Sounded good. A resort we had not been to before and far enough away from Albufeira. The hotel is ideally situated in that area. The town area is not the greatest for shops but a great market once a week. The staff were the best we had come across being... More
