The hotel is so clean I can eat off the floor! We booked this hotel from the positive reviews and they were 100% correct. The hotel is a 10 minute walk from the beach. Across the road there are bars, restaurants, shops and transport system. We flew in from Faro and the bus going there was literally around the corner! If we ever come back to Albufeira, we will definitely book with this hotel again! Read Less

Room was very small however-just enough space to walk around the bed. Shower was fabulous with a massive shower head and great water pressure. Pool area is lovely and relaxing however we found the music quite loud and could have been turned down slightly. All the staff in the poolside restaurant were very friendly and professional. We didn’t include breakfast in our package and ate here 2 mornings-it was nice if not a bit pricey at €12 per person however to eat in some of the local restaurants for breakfast it was similar money. Coffee machine wouldn’t be to our tastes. The bean bag loungers and indeed the double bed style loungers were very comfortable. We used the spa which we were led to believe was complimentary as we received passes at check in only to be charged €15 each at check out.wasnt worth €15 each-very small area. Hotel is within walking distance of the old town so ideally located however the noise from bar street and the square is heard in the rooms quite clearly. There are ear plugs provided and maybe a lower floor room might not be as bad. We were on the 7th floor. We had lunch in the restaurant on 2 days which was lovely. Would stay here again for the cleanliness, relaxation and location. However if the hotel was busier getting a lounger may prove difficult but your only a 5 min walk from the beach. Also special mention to Oleksinky I think is his name- the bar man at ground level - makes fabulous cocktails and so friendly!!! Read Less

Il est possible de prendre le petit déjeuner , hors des heures , au restaurant. Ils sont copieux et variés.

Le personnel des chambre manque un peu de professionnalisme mais fait ce qu' il faut à la demande. L hotel est bien situé à la fois proche de deux plages et de divers restaurants, magasins etc... mais un peu en retrait du centre. Le bemol le dancing Kiss de 4 étages fort proche mais fermé en octobre Les chambres ne sont pas insonorisé et la tranquillité dépend donc des personnes des chambres environnantes.

They see to your every needs -with a smile. Joana and XXX were soo helpful i can not thank them enough. The rooms were nice and simple, the thing that stood out to me was the fact they had UK channels such as E4 and ITV on the TVs in the room- which was a nice touch as i am a TV lover and don’t usually get UK channels when abroad. The beds and pillows were comfy. Other aspects of the hotel such as the pool and bars were very pretty, with a consistent colour scheme. Theres a pool table and piano- even though i didn’t use them, but a nice touch. The hotel is clean throughout. For a 3 star hotel, it really exceeds expectations. While i was here, it was my birthday. I went out for the day and when i came back, in my room was a slice of cake and a bottle of champagne- along with a handwritten card from the hotel staff!!
The only downside was the breakfast, the options were quite limited for someone who doesn’t eat pork.. With that being said, i still left the breakfast hall every morning with a full tummy. I would give Velemar Hotel a 9/10 overall. Thank you so much Joana, .... and the rest of the team for being so hospitable and making our stay so pleasant. Read Less

The room offered wasn’t the best so when we asked to change the reception staff did so. The room was clean and modern and the housekeeping go above and beyond to help out. The breakfast has a good choice of food and drinks - although watch what you leave on the tables as the seagulls will make their move. Drinks at the hotel bar are reasonably priced and the cocktails are good. I would recommend getting your sunbed early as you have to get your own off a stack - slightly strange for a four star hotel. The pools are small and the location of the hotel doesn’t offer much variety of restaurants around it. Price to and from the airport in a taxi is just under €50. Read Less

Read Morewe stayed one week, the staff were very helpful, the hotel is beautiful with lovely gardens and pool. Location is away from the beach so you might need a car, we used taxis a few times. Useful free shuttle bus into Caroveiro. Food in the restaurant is a la carte with two choices of each course menu changing daily, very good food.
Carvoeiro nearby is a lovely small town with plenty of eating places. There is a restaurant near the hotel which is fine dining. Breakfast in the hotel is in the pool area. Standard rooms often have a (nice)north facing view but you can have a villa or other room choices.

Our first visit to Portugal and we enjoyed it very much. We arrived at the hotel at about 9.30pm. Luckily we had our Sat Nav so managed to find the way fairly easily.
The staff on the reception were very helpful and we checked into room 113. The room albeit a little on the small side, had everything you needed and a small balcony with table and 2 chairs. The room and bathroom were spotlessly clean. The beds extremely comfortable, slept like a log all week.
The breakfast was a mixture of continental and cooked breakfast. My partner who had the cooked breakfast the first couple of mornings was very disappointed. The bacon was some sort of streaky overcooked ham slices ( Not good quality bacon) the sausages were the cheapest around and he thinks the scrambled egg was powdered egg. I found the continental breakfast fairly good and enough choice.
We were on half board and the 'Chef's sample menu' in the restaurant was on another level. The food was excellent and very imaginative, could not fault it all. The restaurant staff were excellent, very professional, including the young lady (with glasses) who only started the first/second day we were there.
The only minor point (which did not affect us, was that you need a car to get out and about.The hotel runs a mini bus down to town about 15 mins away, but the last bus back was 5.30? I think.
All in all a great week and would certainly come back. Read Less

Suite was gorgeous and thank you so much to staff for arranging room to look amazing, please see photos. Food also wonderful! Only down side was on our last day a stag group checked in and took over the pool area. I work in a behaviour school and know for a fact they were waiting to be told off to tone it down, but they weren’t so they got more and more drunk, and more and more annoying. Security need to nip this in the bud in future if the majority are to have a nice time. Stags apart it is a stunning hotel. Read Less

We were upgraded from a small room to a large room when we arrived which was good. The large room was big with a balcony looking into the town. The rooms where cleaned daily and there was a safe in the room.
The top entrance to the hotel is on the 8th floor in a quiet cobbled street. The rear entrance is on the first floor which is on the main street of bars and restaurants leading from the square to the beach.
The only negative as nothing can be perfect, is that the corridor carpets had a very strong smell of feet/wet dog and the music from the street below can be heard in the room. The double glazing does muffle most of it out to an extent, and they supply you with ear plugs. If the air con is on it also helps to drown out the music. Read Less

mooie nieuwe kamer, zalige douche en zeep van rituals!
geen last van het lawaai buiten op straat als het raam dicht is. (waarschijnlijk 1 van de enige hotels waar het lawaai van het oude stadscentrum dragelijk is!)
Zalig zwembad met zalige bedjes, handdoek leggen is wel nodig vanaf half 9 (buiten seizoen)
Er zijn twee ingangen ( de eerste pal in het centrum op de 1ste verdieping en op de heuvel op verdieping 8, waar ook de receptie is).
Top ontbijt!! Er zijn zelfs smoothies! Ook heel rustig om te zitten.
Kamers zijn heel proper.
Locatie is recht in het oude centrum.
-
kamer was wat klein, we hadden een kamer op de 6de verdieping aan het zwembad en het ontbijt. We verbleven maar 2 nachten, voor meer nachten raad ik aan om een grotere kamer te boeken.
receptie is moeilijk te bereiken met de auto, alsook weinig plaats, er kunnen niet meer dan 2 auto's staan. Er is geen parking. Goedkoopste parking in de buurt is op de heuvel kort aan het strand, hier betaal je 10 euro per dag, enkel mogelijk om met cash te betalen.
TIP:
Niet aan de alleenstaande geldautomaten geld afhalen, er zijn genoeg banken in de buurt. Ze vragen immers geen 4 euro. Read Less

Algo alejado del centro histórico, y situado en una zona de ocio. Es cierto que enfrente hay una gran discoteca pero al menos en Septiembre, estaba tranquilo y no lo notamos. El desayuno es muy completo y muy bueno, nos sorprendió gratamente. Mal que la piscina no disponga de regulador de temperatura, ya que el agua está ridículamente helada; era triste ver las tumbonas llenas y nadie poder disfrutar de un baño.
La limpieza de las habitaciones también podría mejorar un poco.

From the time of our arrival to our checking out, we found everything about this hotel amazing! During our stay we received a parking ticket for 5 euros which we were unable to pay as we could not access the system being an international visitor - we asked the hotel for assistance and they even offered to pay it for us as the fine would have increased to 150 euros if not paid within 3 days!
The breakfasts were lovely - more than adequate and staff in the restaurant always pleasant and helpful.
Our room was lovely - it was on the road, but we never heard any noise - we were more than happy.
This hotel is way more than a 3 star establishment and we would stay again. Our only tiny negative is that the walls are quite thin and you can hear conversations, TV, hairdryers etc in the other rooms. Read Less

Está bien situado, al lado tienes bares, restaurantes, supermercados… y muy cerca de una playa muy bonita aunque muy pequeña, sin embargo a pocos kilómetros hay playas mucho más grandes, como la de Falesia (muy recomendable). La zona de la piscina se llena en seguida, ya que no es muy grande para el tamaño de éste hotel. Las habitaciones son amplias, modernas y limpias, el baño también está bien. La cama y la almohada mejorables desde mi punto de vista. El personal amable y atento. El desayuno está bastante bien y disponen de bar en la terraza y un restaurante en el que se come muy bien, ya sea de carta o menú (lo cambian todos los días). También disponen de bar interior con música en directo, perfecto para tomar una copa y relajarse al final del día. La verdad es que si es recomendable alojarse en este hotel, aunque merece la pena desplazarse a pueblos mucho más bonitos que Albufeira que hay cerca (Faro, Portimao, Lagos, Tavira…), ya que Albufeira está demasiado masificado de turistas y fiesta.

Staff very friendly and helpful. Facilities and rooms spotless and buffet breakfast superb. Situated close enough to amenities but far enough away from noisey nightlife on The Strip. Previous reviews have mentioned/complained about the night-club across the road (opening time 1am - 7am) but this was never an issue for us, despite the fact our room faced onto it, I suppose it depends on how light a sleeper you are! We have absolutely no complaints re our holiday here. The only point I would make would be that the hotel should consider more sunbeds as the usual selfish people would leave their towels on them from early morning. Read Less

The rooms are modern and spacious and the apartments are even more spacious. The air con was fab. Tbh it was home from home. As soon as we got the rooms we made it our home for the 4 nights we were there. The pool was lovely and cold and it was never a problem getting a sunbed only on the first day when we arrived after 2pm, but we found a table n chairs and set up our own little area. The breakfast is lovely and there is something for everyone. I loved the scrambled egg it was really nice and cokes to perfection (normally sloppy everywhere I have been)
The kiss disco that opens at weekends never caused us a problem at all and the front door is locked up each night and you can only enter with your key, which means no one can wander in from over the road (great security). All 9 of us would meet in the hens room for a few drinks before we went out. Once it hit 10 o clock the security guard came to tell us to keep the noise down. This wasn’t a problem at all and we respected the other residents and the security guards wishes. We found the food for lunch n tea really nice and tbh a lot cheaper than a lot of the bars n restaurants. The location is good too and just a few minutes walk to the strip where the night life is. Also the beach is within walking distance. The shops over the road are reasonably priced too for drinks etc. The reception staff are so helpful and helped us to find numerous nice restaurants (thank you).I have to praise the management and staff because this hotel is beautiful and clean and very well kept. I would definitely return and I would definitely recommend to anyone. Thank you for your hospitality🙂 Read Less

Read MoreThe hotel has only been open for 2 months and so it is beautifully presented, fantastic central location and a sense of relaxation. The staff were very friendly, particularly around the poolside restaurant. There were however a few problems that we noticed, which could easily be rectified to make this a truly 5 star hotel it is aspiring to be. When we arrived our tv hadn't even been programmed, it took 24 hours of asking before this was rectified. The safe still had the cable hanging out the back, with no where to plug it in, the table on our balcony was dangerous as the top hadn't been fixed to the base. I narrowly missed burning myself when I lent on it with a cup of tea and the table top flipped towards me. The rooms were not cleaned every day which was a shame as the floors are white and so look quite dirty quickly. The noise from the street outside is very loud until 3am, the hotel provide ear plugs but we only had one pair in our room. The room had a great coffee machine with a space for 4 pods, only 2 of these were filled, and if the room wasnt cleaned these were not replaced. The fire alarm went off in the night due to guests smoking in their rooms, but the staff were sat at reception on the 8th floor and not letting guests know that there wasnt an issue, some of which were leaving the hotel looking very scared, a better plan needs to be established if this happens again. Our bed was huge, but the metal frame needed to be tightened or something as it squeaked everytime one of us moved in the night, my husband had little sleep and I had asked the hotel if someone could address this problem but unfortunately never did. When we checked in there was an issue with getting our room key and so they let us in our room and brought this along when it had been issued, however due to the distraction we were not provided with any of the information about the hotel or leaflets about booking activities around the area. I do really want this hotel to do really well as it was such a relaxing place to stay , and break from our busy lives, just a few teething problems need to be resolved to make it a truly five star experience. We would definitely love to stay again, especially when the spa is finished. Read Less

The air con works well. You don't need a degree in technology to operate the free safe.
Breakfast fantastic, served from 7.30 to 10.30 am.
TV has lots of English speaking channels. There were quite a few English books left behind by other holiday makers. Look on the tables near the lifts on each floor and in the bookcase near the bar.
The only thing missing for me was a clothes drying rack on the balcony.
We saw only 3 children in the hotel and other than the small pool, there's not much for them to do.
Afternoon tea can be purchased. It was OK but needs some refinements.
All in all, a great place to stay. Read Less

Excellent rapport qualité prix dans un quartier paisible Chambre très grande avec tout le confort et la propreté, décoration soignée, literie haut de gamme, petit quartier sympa loin du brouhaha du centre ville, plages et restaurants typiques à pied, personnel très aimable, jolie piscine et petit déjeuner très copieux

Good hotel, rooms ok Not far away from the night life, can be noisy at times, but did not bother us.the bar was good and sold bar meals which were also good. The pool was ok with plenty of sun beds.

We stayed in an apartment on the top floor (didn’t realise that there was no lift) up 3 flights of stairs. Our balcony had a very tall palm tree which kept our room cool. There were lots of little birds living in that tree - which were fun to see close up.
The kitchen was equipped with just about everything you need to russle up a cooked breakfast or snack. No oven or frying pan ( apparently the smoke alarms kept being triggered by frying. We managed by keeping the window open and putting the extractor fan on.
We decided that we didn’t need housekeeping to come in every day - you can sign up to the green scheme.
Every where was perfectly clean and the surrounding gardens well maintained.
The bed(s) two pushed together were very comfortable. It would have been better to have some drawer units instead of open shelves. The wardrobe in our room had no doors and only a few hangers each side (would have been nice to close the doors and not have to see my clothes piled up on the shelves. There was a safe and some duvet for when the temperature dropped at night.
We had a small table and chairs inside and also two chairs and table on the balcony. No clothes airier to dry our swimming things though.
There are some small local supermarkets to purchase water and provisions just across the road.
There was a large bottle of water in our room (3ruros) if you need it and also a small pack of washing up liquid, sponge, dishcloth,bin liner , surface cleaner for €3 to start you off.
We didn’t realise that the pool was unheated- it was far too cold 🥶 for me to get in . I think it was in the shade most of the day too. There were sun loungers and umbrellas and towels provided
to use by the pool. There was always some chilled music playing on the terrace too.
We ventured out each day - walking into the old town or discovering new beaches. Sometimes we caught the (noddy) tourist train 🚂 if we got tired.
The strip is a short walk away and I recommend that you pick up a free map. You are spoilt for choice with all the bars and restaurants nearby.
I have to eat gluten free as I’m coeliac and the hotel do gluten free baguettes. Local restaurants serve gluten free food- I always do a search on Tripadviser and found some lovely local restaurants 😋
The staff on reception were always friendly and happy to answer any questions.
The Kiss nightclub just across the road never bothered us at all - maybe it has closed as it’s mid October . Read Less

First time we stayed at an adults hotel only. And it was amazing - peaceful, no rush for sun beds, empty pool, total bliss.
The hotel is very nice and clean . The staff are very welcoming and helpful. Pool is more than ample.
We opted not to pay for breakfast at 12 Euros each . Plenty of options outside especially the restaurants along the beach. Amazing sea views and at only 4.50 euros.
Beach is only a 10 minute walk.
Drinks and food prices are top end price, we opted to eat out as you are spoilt for choice. Read my other reviews on places to eat they were amazing and value for money.
The reason I knocked off a star is because this is suppose to be an adult hotel only. However on at least 3 occasions in the morning on the way to the pool we saw a family with 2 young children waiting to go for breakfast . You can not be an adults only hotel then allow children. I left my 2 boys at home ..... Read Less
