My wife and I were pleasantly surprised on how lovely our little “Boutique Like” Hotel right on the main strip in Albufeira was. We were so impressed.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful with any questions.
There is an awesome rooftop patio with a bar. And Great views from up there as well.
The rooms were spacious and always clean. A great little restaurant is attached to the side. We had breakfast there every morning. Lots of breakfast selections. They also serve dinner there, but we ate dinners elsewhere, most nights.
There are lots of little shops very close to Hotel Baltum. We found an amazing little store just to the right of the hotel entrance that sold wines and ports, and we found several amazing ports. Some for the room some we brought back to Canada.
Prices were quite reasonable for this hotel because of that we are unsure of the quality, but we were pleasantly surprised that the price did not reflect what a great little hotel this is.
In the evenings because of the proximity to the main strip, it could get loud in the later evenings from lots of bars in the area, but not enough to affect our sleep.
We would highly recommend this Hotel if you are ever in Albufeira, Portugal.

We were guests of the hotel off season and were well taken care of as such. The staff did good work. The rooms are quite dated and were uncomfortably humid. This was likely due to condensation from cool temperatures, something the hotel can't control.
The location is good if you like nightlife and loud bars and being close to the beach. This involved guests coming back to rooms at all hours with zero soundproofing in the walls and doors. In addition, the rooftop was closed with no hot tub available...disappointing.

The hotel is in the perfect location in the heart of the restaurants and nightlife. That being said, if you value your sleep , this may not be the place for you. We checked the reviews before booking and saw that it can be noisy late into the night . I’m here to tell you that it is much noisier that you can possibly imagine. It does not stop till 4am . Thumping bass, karaoke, and yelling. You will have a window of peace from about 4am -7:30am when the hotel staff start making noise. The beds are not that great. The staff is excellent. The hotel is clean, and the area is fun . Oh, and did I say it’s very loud.

The hotel is in the heart of Old Town and close to shopping, restaurants and beaches. The whole hotel smelled of rotten sewage. The elevator, halls and rooms stunk really bad. The room was extremely dirty. There was hair in every corner of the bathroom floor and mildew all throughout the shower, there were stains in the bedding and surfaces were dusty and streaky. I had to clean the room myself.

Speak up about this place !!! We only spent few nights there but it was an amazing experience. From the start the service was so nice and we checked in quickly. The room was so impressive !! Totally clean,neat and really big. There was a TV , mini fridge ,locker ,sofa,table and a kettle . I was also impressed by bathroom as it so well-furnished and convenient to use. We had everything we might need in the room. There was some water for us and also soap ,shampoo ,body gel, 2 big towels and 2 smaller ones , some tea and coffee. The balcony was quite small but the view was amazing. At the rooftop there was a very nice big area with a bar and jacuzzi but it closes at 8 pm. Reception was available 24/7.We did not have a breakfast included but we decided to have one at the hotel restaurant (Ricco) which was so satisfying experience. Location of the place is incredible! Supermarket, ATM, pharmacy are 15 !seconds! away from the hotel. Also, the amount of restaurants around is nice . The beach was few minutes walking. The hotel is located right at the city centre so we could see the clubs street from the balcony. I cannot understand people complaining about it being noisy 😂. If you want a quiet place it is not the city centre. HOWEVER, as you close the balcony there is no noise at all) I highly recommend it!!! I did not expect it to be that good . No concerns at all. That is the best one !!!
