We booked a week at the Pestana Delfim Hotel at the last minute and were more than happy with what we got for our money. Some reviews have stated that the hotel looks a bit tired, which is hard to argue with but this doesn't detract at all. Our room on the 11th floor was large with a very comfortable... more

We have just returned from a 2 week stay at the Delfim (my husband 14 year old son and I). After reading some of the reviews before we went we were a little apprehensive - this was completely unfounded. It was a really great hotel in a lovely position - right near the beach, staff very approachable, friendly and helpful.... more

Just got home from a 1 week stay in the pestana delfim hotel. Have to say a lot of the negative things written here are pretty much true. The breakfast buffet in the morning is always the same but it is ok except for the bread and croissants. The lift is a nuisance too. 16 floors, 2 of 4 lifts... more

We have been going to the Algarve since 1972 and this was our fifth stay in the Delfim (see my previous reviews) and it seems to get better every time. Years ago we saw this hotel being built whilst staying in the nearby Pestana Dom Joao and said we must try the Delfim out and we certainly have ! Out... more

This hotel is rated as a 4 star and although it physically looks pretty good the following points should be considered when you make a booking. - The staff at the hotel bars are the most miserable of any I have ever met at a hotel. You could not have the slightest conversation with any of them. - The evening... more
