The hotel offers what you can expect for the price. The rooms are okay with old furniture and the paint of the walls is a bit scrappy. The only way to close the doors is to slam it shut and with the super thin walls the whole floor can hear someone enter/leave the room... you can even hear a phone vibrate on the nightstand in the room next door - so for people with light sleep this hotel is gonna be a nightmare. There were breadcrumbs on the bed when we arrived which were cleaned the next day but the room was never fully "clean".
The variety of the breakfast buffet is not the widest but for the price okay. The pool area is quite nice and hanging out there is enjoyable. Also the view to the castle is beautiful.
TL:DR: For ~70€ for a triple room it's okay but I, personally, wouldn't pay a cent more.

This hotel was just perfect for us.. lovely pool area, staff are excellent and nothing seemed to be a problem.. we had to leave at 5 am for our flight, so we would miss breakfast.. they made a lovely packed breakfast, 2 filled morning rolls and fruit juice, and thoughtfully put in bottled water. It had been extremely hot, so this was a very kind thing to do.. We were extremely grateful. Thank you for a lovely stay. We can't wait to return ... the hotel has the most wonderful views.. and short walking distance to village .. 😃

A good, clean, attractive, basic hotel with the added bonuses of a small swimming pool and free parking. Nicely located just across the river from Silves town centre, with a view of the castle and in this case ideal for the Silves beer festival.
Rooms fair size, reasonably well appointed although beds a little hard. Bathroom modern with very good shower, supplied toiletries very basic.
Hotel is quite noisy overnight despite the quiet location, lots of movement from early hours amplified by thin walls, no insulation and tiled floors, barking dogs outside etc. Take earplugs.
Breakfast buffet selection OK and plentiful other than watery juices and machine coffee.
(For the price paid) a very good hotel.

Some things never change and this hotel is one of them. It is what it is and provides reasonable value for money. Breakfast is plentiful and ample free parking available on site. The grounds are attractive and very well maintained.
However, the rooms could really do with a make over.
I have always liked the location, out of town centre but a pleasant walk with great views of the town and the castle.

Our room was full of ants so we requested another room, a few hours after our check-in. The staff told us the entire hotel is full of ants anyway. I was surprised to hear they were ok to operate the hotel and still accepts guests under these conditions.
They offered 3 other rooms to view, but all of them had ants.
We requested a full refund so we can find another hotel quickly. They declined and took the first night out of the payment, so they refunded only 1/3 out of the total.
Considering we were there for only 2 hours, I would consider this as a bad practice against customers.
Cannot reccomend this location.
