Botelhas Hotels, Castro Marim

"This was a very nice hotel to stay at. No complaints. "

"The outside pool had building work in progress. We were not notified of this before our visit"

"Very small room and bathroom. Very basic hotel. You have to walk on a national road (no path) for about 5 mins to access the town if you don’t want to drive. That may not be suitable for everyone. Rooms are incredibly small and basic - don’t bring a cat with you because there won’t be enough room to swing it! Shower/bathroom very small. Staff friendly. Breakfast was ok. "

"Clean room, staff were friendly. Hotel is located at the top of the hill of the town centre. The Spa didn’t have any availability unfortunately and the Pool was closed for the season. Breakfast was delicious! Shower in bathroom leaked all over floor, probably needs to be redone. "

"Let’s start with something positive, which is that the restaurant staff is very very kind and they try to do their best to make up for the deficiencies of other departments. I trace A LOT and sty in many different hotels. This one is 2-stars at best. Housekeeping is minimal and they take less than 5mins for the entire apartment (superficial cleaning). All of the facilities feel very cheap and outdated. Hair dryer wasn’t working and the AC smells like in an old motel. Wifi reception is horrendous, there are no amenities like shower gels etc. The pool area seem neglected and not well taken care of. There also seem to be water damage in some of the hallways, since the paint is peeling off of the walls. Breakfast selection is the same everyday and both fruit and meat selection are everything but appealing (think of pineapple from the can a pink looking rubber that is supposed to be bacon I guess). I feel sorry for the waitresses for saying this but stay away from this place! I would probs lay shut it down fo a year or year and a half, remodel it completely and than start again from scratch. Otherwise, it’s only going to progress to worse"

"Staff were exceptionally helpful. Best location, central, on the river with the departure point for boats to the beach in front."

"Clean room"

"Very clean rooms and cordial staff."

"Amazing hotel and excellent staff. Breakfast was one if thest ones I had to date. It's not close to shops or even a village, but not too far by car."
