Nice hotel but the top pool area is very run down and the toilets were filthy. The food at thd pool is very expensiveand poor value. Our room was clean and comfortable and the breakfasts very good. The staff are brilliant and keen to help with any problems.

2/10 Poor

Disappointing Stay - Not Worth the 4-Star Rating I recently completed a 7-day stay at this hotel, and unfortunately, it fell far short of expectations. What was marketed as a 4-star experience felt more like a budget accommodation with premium pricing. The Problems Cleanliness Issues: The room maintenance was subpar throughout my stay. The shower was dirty upon arrival and remained that way despite housekeeping visits. Countertops were consistently dusty, giving the impression that proper cleaning wasn't a priority. I specifically requested shower gel refills multiple times, but my requests were ignored - unacceptable for any hotel, let alone one claiming 4-star status. Unfulfilled Promises: The hotel advertised complimentary wine for guests, which never materialized during my week-long stay. When promises are made during booking, they should be honored. Mediocre Breakfast: The breakfast offering was lackluster at best. For the price point, I expected much better quality and variety. Honestly, you'd be better off skipping it entirely and finding a local café - it's simply not worth the value. The Only Positive The sole redeeming quality was the hotel's convenient location, which made getting around the area relatively easy. Final Thoughts 7 days was far too long to endure these conditions. The experience was a constant reminder that star ratings don't always reflect reality. My advice: Do your research thoroughly and stick to the most recent, detailed reviews.

Staff could do with a bit of retraining

We have stayed many times and found the staff a bit rude this time. We arrived early and they took our bags and said check in was 2pm. We went back at 1 and I inquired was there any possibility our room might be ready. The man at reception didn’t even look up from the computer and just said no very abruptly, it would have taken him 2 seconds to make eye contact. The regular guy at the roof top pool was also a bit gruff and not very friendly. This is just the start of the season can’t imagine what they will be like mid July. If you’re going to be rude don’t do hospitality. Breakfast amazing but the man playing piano goes to break from 9-9.30 so if you want that experience of hearing him play make sure u go for breakfast before or after that time. He is wonderful

4/10 Fair

Disappointing stay at Eva Senses. Initially given an ‘upgrade’ to a marina view room - unfortunately this room (111) was directly above an ongoing building site, constant drilling and hammering all day. Asked for a change of room but was told hotel fully booked. Hotel is in desperate need of a refresh; clothes drawers and rail in poor condition, toilet seat broken on arrival, no instructions for oldest room safe I’ve seen, balcony dirty from building works below room, restaurant carpet full of stains, you get the picture. Better aspects include the view over the marina, breakfast was fine and it was quiet at night. Only stayed 2 nights, and zero intention of returning. There are far better hotels in Faro.

Wonderful hotel heart of Faro

From reception to housekeeping, the staff were excellent every time we had an interaction. The hotel was conveniently in the center of all the activity in Faro and the rooms were clean and well-kept. Some parts of the room appeared as if they needed some upgrading, but overall the entire stay was lovely. The breakfast buffet was excellent as were the steak restaurant and the roof top bar. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Don’t book until renovations done as very noisy

Sadly the spa was under complete renovation which had I know I would not have booked . After I booked and asked about renovations the hotel was very vague about it . Poor communication as I had said it was for recovery after cancer so needed it to be relaxing . We were over the renovations and so had to move rooms and lost the harbour view due to all the noise . Beds very basic

Good location, poor bedroom quality, top breakfast

Great location in Faro. Rooms on the road side of the hotel very noisy (I.e. not Marina facing). The shared or communal elements of the hotel are well maintained but bedrooms are dated and in need of an upgrade. The mattresses are fairly hard and bedding is basic, bathrooms are well past their best, and rooms feel a little unloved compared to communal areas. I’ve stayed a few times now. The breakfast is one of the best! The fruit is plentiful and fresh and the selection of food offers great choice and quality. The pianist at breakfast is lovely as is the outdoor rooftop space for breakfast. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Very Comfortable

Staff are excellent apart from one very rude cleaner who was cleaning the lifts. Check in was efficient and insightful into what to do and where to eat in Faro. The room was great - very comfy bed overlooking the marina. The bathroom was tired and could do with an upgrade. Breakfast was great with loads of options. My only gripe would be why no warm plates for hot food? The downstairs restaurant Adeo was superb and we actually ate the three times during our week stay. Great food, wine and service and very reasonably prices. Would highly recommend. The pool wasn’t open but you could use the sunbeds on the roof top terrace. Very scruffy up there but I would imagine it will get tidied up in time for May. Overall, a great week in a good hotel.
