The hotel is very beautiful, clean, and perfectly located within walking distance of the city center, restaurants, and the marina. The staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and professional throughout my stay. You could really feel the great service and warm atmosphere, which made the experience even better. The room was comfortable, very clean, and had everything I needed. The breakfast was also very good with a wide variety of options and a lovely view over Faro. I highly recommend Occidental Faro to anyone looking for a comfortable, beautiful, and relaxing stay in Faro.

We came into Portugal after many hours of travel and our accommodations were the most comfortable nights sleep, the bed and the pillows. We did the breakfast the next morning, and it was exceptional, something for everyone. We also visited the bar in the evening for a drink and had wonderful service, helpful recommendations, and great options.
