We stayed at this place in december, so it was obviously not a beach holiday. Overall our impression is very good. The rooms are spacious and clean and the staff was able to speak good english. One drawback: The rooms facing the "sea" are also facing the main road. The actual beach is a good 10min walk away.

We spent four nights in this Hotel which does not deserve the three stars it shows. The pictures do not truly represent the status of the rooms which are just partially refurbished. The bathroom was VERY old! The room was full of dust and despite the fact we had a room with a view to the sea. It was just... More

We didn't get a chance to read the reviews before booking this hotel and I'm glad we didn't !!! The fog horn was never a problem...it's distant and with the door closed it could hardly be heard. It is a walk into town but it only takes about 10 minutes. It was lovely to watch the sunsets on the balcony... More

Esposende is a charming little city. It's a good walk to town from the hotel if you don't have a car, but this is an excellent hotel. Staff speaks English. There's a large game room for children; it looks like a great place for families. The bar was a surprise for us. The bartenders were knowledgable about local wines, regional... More

I stayed with my group for 4 nights. Reception was efficient and speedy with a welcome from the managing director in person. Rooms are on 2 floors, built around a rectangle, within which is an outdoor swimming pool. The rooms (which can be accessed by lifts) are well appointed and offer bath or wetroom/shower choices. Rooms to the side of... More

Very well appointed. Rooms very good. Food excellent and staff friendly and helpful. Pleasant location with walks and views. Quiet - except for a fog horn which sounded once it got dark. However, with the windows closed and in rooms away from the road, not noticeable. Management are aware of this.

room was good and everything was clean. pool was nice and they make an effort with flowers. breakfast was just ok. we didn't stay there for dinner. location was across the road from where people use the walking trail along the water, not where people go swimming. a nice swimming beach is a good 20 min walk north. axis ofir...

This hotel really deserves to have 4 stars. We had a junior suite with sea view which was spacious, very clean and comfortable. Everything was fine until we opened the door to the balcony when we heard the foghorn. It was not foggy but sounded every 15 seconds not just during the day but all night. A shame as this... More

We found Suave Mar through internet and Tripadvisor. Well, the hotel is 3 star, no more. We had a junior suite with seaview. But you actually view the road and the river. Noise from the traffic and the mist horn (also when there is no mist). (See others reviews of this hotel). Personnel is kind. Swimming pool small but sheltered:... More
