皇家貝拉維斯塔溫泉飯店(Real Bellavista Hotel & Spa)

I’m currently staying at this hotel in a premium room and very disappointed. Bathroom has mould and hotel does not provide any toiletries, drinking water or any tea bags. I have had these even in a three star hotels every where I have stayed so I was shocked to know that this hotel does not provide any of these basics. I’m worried now that will they provide toilette rolls when they finish. lol Was shocked to learn that Hotel charges for safe usage. That’s just money making scheme and nothing else. I have not checked TV may be that also I need to pay. Hotel charges €25 for kettle and €5 for iron per hour. I have always had these freely provided even by 3 star hotels. Hotel is about 20 minutes walk from beach and not ideal location unless you like to hike back every day from beach. There is a shuttle but you have to stick to timings and space availability. Room has air conditioning but controller to control temperature is so outdated that after 2 nights of trying I gave up and just sleeping with open windows now. There is something wrong with shower drainage as bad smell was coming through it. Only reason I am giving 1 star because Reception staff was helpful at times when needed, breakfast buffet/staff and cleaner services are good. Seems management is more interested in squeezing money out every possible way over facilities and customer service.

Advertised as all inclusive when it wasn’t. Unfriendly staff particularly the very rude older lady in restaurant downstairs, who pretended she didn’t speak any English but then I overheard her speaking English with other guests. Wouldn’t recommend.

El hotel está muy bien y personal muy amable, es disayuno tipo buffet está genial y la relación calidad precio es muy buena. Con piscina, gimnasio y spa incluidos en el precio está genial. Lo recomiendo para una escapada.

Séjour de 8 nuits dans cet hôtel qui correspond parfaitement à ce que j’attendais. J’ai loué une voiture pour faire les excursions que j’avais prévu. Faro , Loué, Silves , Lagoa et Lagos. J’ai pu profiter des belles plages à Albufeira et de 18 degré toute la semaine. L’hôtel propose un restaurant de qualité avec un large choix.

2-3 star at best but you get what you pay for….. I suspect the ‘4 star’ is on account of the spa which seemed remarkably empty; also remarkably empty was the room - two small single beds with plastic mattress covers, a big space between bed an window with not even a desk chair. Absolutely no seat for the desk/mirror which seemed odd. Tea facilities sponsored by ‘Tetley’ - branded cups and tiny kettle. I say ‘facilities’ as there was no actual tea - or milk. We arrived 9.30pm so I rang down to be told we could have some teabags the following day and the hotel doesn’t have milk…. Seriously?? Not seriously as the breakfast buffet had milk for cereal but… speaking of breakfast buffet, that was actually rather good. Friday and Saturday live entertainment in the very brightly lit bar- Friday dreadful, Saturday very good; the bar itself has a choice of one white wine which although not bad seems a little restrictive. Bar staff very good as were all staff encountered with the exception of reception other than one chap of larger frame with glasses. No ‘gold status’ perks given, I had to show the listing to get the complimentary bottle of house (only) wine and that took 24. hours to arrive. Forget room upgrades, I don’t think the hotel take any notice at all/are even aware of member ********** benefits. Finally, pool was freezing.

I beskrivelsen av det bestilte rommet var vi lovt balkong men ble plassert på bakkeplan blandt maur og andre insekter fra haven rett utenfor. Leiligheten ellers var rommelig og ok. Arrogant behandling av resepsjonen ved henvendelse.

The VIP benefits were great and the staff provided excellent service. I did not like that the spa had many things out of order and they force you to buy a swim cap. The food was also not good quality

Excellent helpful friendly staff. Fast and efficient check in/out. Excellent buffet breakfast, goid bar and restaurant.
