Reviews for Hotel Eva
Review 1:The room service really was excellent and quick but maybe some tea and coffee making facilities in the room?
Review 2:The staff were wonderful. We knew we were arriving early so asked if the room could be available early which it was. The service was excellent and the room service was great too and not expensive. Fabulous central location and close to good restaurants - that said the hotel has great food too. And as for the views over the marina...stunning! What a great place.
Review 3:small room,stained carpets,worn furniture. Broken tiles in bathroom. Air con. useless even in January. Most definitely not 4 star.Would not return or recommend
Review 4:Nice breakfast room and good breakfast
Review 5:The breakfast was very boring with the same disappointing choices every morning..The room was too hot with the a/c being on "HOT" all the time..we had to open the windows to get cooler air in the room..
Review 6:location to everything,,,taxi,trains buses marina, city centre
Review 7:Everything was wonderful and we will be delighted to stay here again, really nice touch on new years eve, hotel gave us bottle of Cava and fruit and we had the pleasure of watching the fireworks from our balcony.
Review 8:First room offered was shabby had to pay 50 euros a night to upgrade to decent room. Cooked Breakfast was Luke warm breakfast staff surly and unfriendly.
Review 9:Excellent location and view from balcony
Review 10:Excellent in every sense. The New Year lunch buffet was delightful. All the staff were very friendly and helpful even though they were at work on new Year day and evening. Thanks.
Review 11:Well equipped room with comfortable bed, two armchairs and good quality balcony furniture. Very good breakfast spread in a restaurant with roof top views over the harbour. Complementary use of gym, sauna and steam room. Highly recommended.
Review 12:Exceptionally helpful reception staff. Took the trouble to find locations, provide maps and directions. Ever so polite and very good English which one marvels at.
Review 13:Our room for the first night was over a busy main road but as the room had triple glazing it was not a problem. We could hear the drone of tyres on cobbles next morning and without that extra glazing it would have been noisy.
Review 14:The staff on reception were wonderful, informative, cheery and always ready to help. We stayed one night on arrival but returned for two more later. We ate in the restaurant one night and it was very good. The hotel is situated on the harbour and we had a lovely water view on the second visit.
Review 15:Weak unusable wifi in our room with tedious repetitive login procedure - despite excellent facility I will choose another hotel next time because internet access is important to me for bookings, travel research etc. Breakfast was average, with long life milk and instant coffee - coffee was lukewarm on my last day and staff member was nonplussed when I pointed this out
Review 16:Beautiful new building with state of the art design and facilities
Review 17:Where to start? The 2nd floor smells terrible: it is full of mould and humidity and nothing is done to mitigate this. It has carpet everywhere- by the sea! Our bedroom was over bearing with the smell and humidity: we had to sleep with the window open to reduce it as best we could. The bathroom is mouldy and dirty. The breakfast was poor. In general the hotel needs remodeling to 21st century health standards.
Review 18:Location overlooking the Marina and availability of public car parking spaces.
Review 19:3 rooms booked lack of bathroom toiletries and milk for tea/coffee.in suite room average breakfast one day rooms were not cleaned till late afternoon. one room had water leaking in the bathroom after heavy overnight rain.
Review 20:staff and location
Review 21:Temp was little high even in December Rooms are kind of warm AC turned off We asked for rotating fan which was provided Room that we got gets lot of noise from road people as well as vehicles in middle of night
Review 22:Right next to bus station and 5 min walk to train station as well as the city center shops We actually took bus to Seville from there
Review 23:Only downside was that my bed was a bit hard. But you can't have everything!
Review 24:Very good location - next to the bus and train stations. Good variety of food to choose from at breakfast. Clean and tidy rooms. Nice and quiet. Friendly and helpful staff.
Review 25:Liked everything.
Review 26:The location, the facilities, the staff, the cleanliness, the comfortable beds...everything. A pool on the roof terrace too and beside the train station for travelling on if required. Close to great restaurants and the old town. Next time we will book a room overlooking the marina..costs a little extra but would be well worth it.
Review 27:Very helpful staff. For example drawing accurate map of how reach local tennis courts and offering to make bookings. Great views from the dining room.
Review 28:Staff in the breakfast room did not know how to smile. No tea and coffee facilities in room unless you pay extra for them. There was no free water provided either.
Review 29:Loved the view from the breakfast room on the 5th floor, it was stunning. Breakfast was nice as well. Reception staff very helpful and friendly.
Review 30:It would be best to ask for a room on a high floor as we were on the second floor and could hear the music from the gym in the early mornings.
Review 31:Excellent location and very easy to get to and from other places as bus and train stations so close.
Review 32:Cleaning service timing sometimes a bit off. First day cleaning was after 5PM, which we thought was a bit late.
Review 33:The location is great in the middle of town, with bus services, tourist busses and tram right in front of the hotel. Staff very helpful and always with a friendly smile.
Review 34:Had to pay for kettle and tea in room (normally standard for a 4 star) €15 WiFi was quite slow...it was better at pizza Hut at the mall
Review 35:Staff were lovely although the old men serving breakfast looked miserable. Maybe they were smiling inside? :/
Review 36:Noisy at night from people coming out of pubs and clubs Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. Also room very warm at night, we were unable to work the air con.
Review 37:Food was excellent.
Review 38:Really loud music very late at night. Hard matrasses, horrible pillows. Some of the stuff very helpful and really friendly and some (the younger one) - arrogant and argumentative for no reason. It depends who is on duty, I suppose. Terrible breakfast. Price 90 €. I tried to book the most expensive place in the city and would pay the way more (the company paid ) for the better conditions than described above. Pitiful and sad
Review 39:Central
Review 40:The rooms were OK, nothing special , very poor hair dyer , air con very noisy and I would have liked to see tea making facilities in the rooms
Review 41:Location, bar prices very good, hotel staff very friendly
Review 42:We hired a car and the parking was a bit 'hit and miss' although the map presented by reception did help.
Review 43:Very friendly staff from reception to room maids. Breakfast choices were very varied and well presented. Room and balcony were excellent value for the money. We enjoyed watching the trains, boats and planes from the balcony and hearing the cathedral bells!
Review 44:The one issue is the noise late at night especially at weekends with revellers coming home at 2 and 3 in the morning ...perhaps the hotel could put in some sound proofing or double glazing in those bedrooms ???
Review 45:We always stay at the Eva when in Faro and the big advantage is the fact that they have a pool on the roof and the marina/harbour views are superb - some of the best in all of Portugal!
Review 46:Standard room very small and traffic noise requires both balcony doors to be closed at all times.No handles for bath or alarm pull or hook or shelf for toiletries. My room was opened without knocking on 23 November and an apparent maid entered. Reported this to reception on departure as I realised that the woman was not the maid cleaning those rooms.Wifi was not available in room.TV and standard lamp not working and only power point was loose in wall
Review 47:Immaculate linens. lovely breakfast. nice staff.
Review 48:At breakfast, and for the second time (had stayed here two weeks ago and thought it could have been a bad day), the staff does not even say good morning and, when I asked (twice) for a coffee, if appeared too late, through someone else different from the one I asked, and as if they were doing me the favor of being served...
Review 49:Reception staff nice.
Review 50:We had to pay 50 percent of daily rate to retain a room for 4 hour late checkout even though the hotel was not full. A little disappointing and unneccecary.
Review 51:Great location next to the harbour. Excellent breakfast and good restaurant for evening meal. Rooftop pool and pool bar with gym and sauna for those that way inclined.
Review 52:Bathroom needs updating. . wish we could have stayed longer...
Review 53:Good location, very helpful staff. Lovely views over sea and harbour whilst having really good breakfast, evening meal excellent again with very helpful staff. lovely room.
Review 54:On a Saturday night there was aload of young people out side a bar opposite and kept on waking us up, that was our last night as we had to be up at 6 to go back home. But thats being very picky
Review 55:All the staff was freindly and the hotel was very clean
Review 56:Hotel Staff ask for €200 security deposit at check in time, we only stay in one night. We stayed more than 10 hotels during the trip and all booked through booking.com, this is the only hotel ask for the deposit, we don' know why. All our credit card information already provided to the booking.com when book the hotel.
Review 57:地点近汽车站,方便。
Review 58:There was an odd smell in the room - We hoped it would go away & had then left it too late to change rooms as they were full.
Review 59:Great location - Good breakfast in the roof resturant with great views. Free hotel parking & wifi. Allowed us a late check out at no extra cost.
Review 60:No management available to deal with any problems....zero sleep due to poor window / patio door fitting that whistled all night...No manager the next day to deal with us, staff member on reception didn't care and almost laughed at my complaint. No one ever made contact regarding the issue. Disgraceful.. I could forgive the whistle but poor attitude from staff and management means I would neither stay here or recommend it.
Review 61:Good pool area..
Review 62:No serious setbacks. The WiFi served had crashed in the morning. It wasn't back on until late afternoon (a Sunday).
Review 63:The location right next to the harbour. The view over the sea and harbour from the rooftop terraces and the restaurant where breakfast is served. The general feeling of quality accommodation. The breakfast consisted of a large variety of foods.
Review 64:The weather was not so good, plenty of rain and many areas had recently been flooded due to the heavy thunderstorm earlier on in the day.
Review 65:Our plane got diverted to Seville due to a thunderstorm over Faro and so we arrived six hours later than planned. Reception kindly allowed us to have our room for an extra hour the following day so that we could use the sauna. Thank-you :) I like the location, the comfort, the service and the facilities. The food in the restaurant was delicious too. We also tried the hotel shuttle which was very efficient. This is the second time I have stayed here and I would definitely come back again.
Review 66:Would have liked tea /coffe e in room. Maybe facilities for snack on arrival...
Review 67:The view of the marina, facilities I e beauty treatments etc,.when raining!!!position to train / bus and restaurants.
Review 68:Bad experience in the restaurant, we thought we'd treat ourselves to a nice meal and view . Waited till table available, Ok, sat for 10mins weren't offered a drink and table was not set for further 5mins then we had to ask for soup spoons, several people walked out as no acknowledgement of us or them being there, then the food was very so so.
Review 69:The bed was very comfortable, the breakfast was very good, greeted by friendly helpful staff at reception, The young waiter who served us in the restaurant was apologetic about the weather (not anyone's fault)and the wait for the table but the older guy was very sullen
Review 70:The staff were very helpful, explaining where to go and making recommendations, and assisting us with sorting out our plans in the next place we were visiting. The location is great for exploring the old town.
Review 71:The bed was a little unconfortable.
Review 72:When checking our passports the receptionist spotted that it was my wife's birthday. When we got to the room there was a card and a bottle of bubbly: a really nice touch.
Review 73:This hotel is beautiful. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. Facilities are superb. The location is perfect for exploring the city. The hotel is close to the bus station and train station, with the airport only a short taxi ride away also.
Review 74:The hotel is near the railway and bus station so easy to explore the region. The roof pool and loungers were great and, best of all, was the view of the "marina" from our room.
Review 75:the hotel is in an ideal location overlooking the marina in faro, & great for the centre of faro. i arrived by train from tavira,the hotel is only a 10 min walk from the station. i would use this hotel if i was stopping in faro again.
Review 76:Great location overlooking the harbour and the old town . Really helpful staff with an excellent restaurant serving a really great inclusive dinner. Breakfast had everything . Will go back.
Review 77:No tea and coffee making facilities in room or room service for early departure. Rate was bed and breakfast but had early morning start (left hotel for airport at 05.30) but only packed breakfast available from night before: small packet of juice; an apple; ham and cheese sandwich - bread hard and unappetizing; small sponge cake. Must be many guests who use hotel for airport so this was a bit disappointing.
Review 78:The location in city and not far from airport. Our good quality room had a magnificent view over the marina. Good wi-fi connection and friendly, welcoming staff.
Review 79:second time staying here and the staff are so pleasant and helpful. the room overlooked the marina with a balcony to enjoy the view. breakfast choice excellent. a lovely hotel and not too far from the airport. wifi was a bit intermittent.
Review 80:Under special requests we asked for a kettle in the room. No details of extra charges for this were given on the booking form. When we arrived we were told there would be a €15 charge for a kettle. An email stating this would have been appreciated.
Review 81:Restaurant breakfast and view. Very comfortable and convenient hotel. Very close to town centre, bus and train stations..
Review 82:Because we were overlooking marina, it was a bit noisy at night even though I had read there was soundproof windows. There was also a funfair in town and this was very noisy early in week.
Review 83:Room with balcony overlooking marina was great.
Review 84:The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and the housemaid very thorough.breakfast was substantial with something for most tastes.
Review 85:Nothing it was a very good hotel
Review 86:Staff were very good and helpful, the pool on the roof was very good. Roof was a superior room and very nice with a balcony.
Review 87:Was very noisy during nights, but balcony had double door , we could close it and turn on AC
Review 88:Nice breakfast in a large room with a great view, place to park a car, helpful and friendly staff, big room and bathroom
Review 89:The pool was very cold and would have needed heated as no-one really used it
Review 90:I loved the balcony overlooking the marina. the staff were friendly and helpful, the rooftop pool area was clean and plenty of sunbeds and the food and bar were great ,
Review 91:Nothing
Review 92:A one night stop over after flying in. Arrived late Sunday evening and super snack meal available. A comfortable room and a good night's sleep followed by breakfast in a dining room overlooking the marina. Full marks all round.
Review 93:My only disappointment was that the Scotland vs Gibraltar football game was being held the weekend of my visit and a stage and beer tents had been erected on the marina to keep the fans occupied. This meant music and drunken singing until the early hours for three of the four nights we were there. No indication that this event was taking place when booking was given.
Review 94:A good location with great views of the marina. Helpful and friendly staff with a reasonably priced restaurant for the quality of food served.
Review 95:Not negative experience but there aren't tea/coffee making facilities in the rooms which can be irksome. If traveller likes to relax in the evening watching (English language) TV, the choices are still very limited indeed... this did not detract from our stay in the hotel though.
Review 96:Our second visit and in our experience (and to meet our needs): centrally placed and handy for all transport links. Spotlessly clean with clearly friendly,helpful customer-focused staff at all levels in a no doubt busy and challenging environment. Choice of breakfast/variety certainly met our requirements.
Review 97:Safe and shower head were broken on arrival. Couldn't get WIFI to work and it was too much of a hassle to use a different password every day for this. Pool seemed a little dirty so didn't use this.
Review 98:Staff were very helpful and friendly. Facilities were good for the price. Range of food for breakfast was good. Bus arranged to go to the football game was good and well organised.
Review 99:Unfortunately as a traveller with reduced mobility the swimming was too high a step to get in and out the rest of hotel was perfect for my needs
Review 100:Friendly staff and breakfast had plenty of choice for everybody
Review 101:Location fantastic, staff on duty were very friendly and very helpful. She even volunteered to take my postcards to the Post Office for me to get stamps, as I was there on a Sunday and nowhere was open.
Review 102:No complaints
Review 103:The staff are always friendly and welcoming. The breakfasts were always fresh and varied.Nothing is too much effort for them and they took good care of our bags on the last day, and let us pop in and out of the hotel as our plane was delayed to retrieve things from our bags.
Review 104:No reflection on the Eva - but to get to know Portugal you need to stay in smaller, maybe family run, hotels; once inside the Eva one could be in a good hotel in any country in the world.......
Review 105:Everything about the hotel is first class.
Review 106:The room downstairs, was very small and a large mirror at the end of the bed would have made it feel bigger, and also would have meant you could put makeup on & get ready if someone was in the bathroom! The plug in the sink didn't work.
Review 107:The hotel is in a good location for the old town and nice restaurants. The breakfasts were nice & healthy, and the view was amazing in the mornings. Nice and tranquil.
Review 108:The bathroom was a bit worn. Temperature control in shower got stuck and we couldn´t adjust the water temperature. Odd chemical smell in bedroom too, probably some horrible cleaning fluid used on carpet.
Review 109:Wonderful location. Friendly staff. Breakfast terrace on top of hotel had fabulous views over the marina and the sea. Will definitely stay there again.
Review 110:It might be difficult to find a parking place. Hotel provides a free wifi in the room however it is slow and non-reliable.
Review 111:Hotel is located near the marina and the historical center. It provides very nice view, especially from the restaurant and the pool on the top floor. Breakfast is excellent. Rooms are nice and comfy.
Review 112:LOCATION - very close to bus station both the regional one and the local one for the airport bus [just a few more metres along the road]. Also right in the marina area, and just across the road from the pedestrian streets, and just down the road to the large arched entrance to the old town. Everything within easy walking distance. Plenty of eating places close by. STAFF - really pleasant and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble, even to post a postcard, and store our luggage, and then return later to rest in the foyer and use the internet after we had checked out. BREAKFAST - great food with great views out over the marina and coast. Could even make your own pot of tea and there was good hot coffee and hot milk too. ROOM - plenty of room to lay out suitcases. Balcony. Good bathroom. WIFI - finally free wifi that worked pretty well!
Review 113:The bed was rock hard. They put a topper on the matress which made little difference . Receptionist agreed that the matresses were poor and stated 'when I come back to the hotel after a holiday it takes me a while to get used to the beds!' Honest answer but not much use when you only have 7 nights to 'get used' to ! My Wife and I did not have 1 good nights sleep and quite often just layed there with back pain. At Breakfast you could see that virtually everybody had trouble walking with their aches and pains. Not a sleepy / relaxing holiday that we were expecting.
Review 114:Location good, friendly staff
Review 115:+ Beautiful views over city, marina and beyond, from both our room on the 1st floor and the top floor restaurant; + Helpful and friendly staff; + Spotlessly clean and comfortable. + Cannot fault the hotel
Review 116:free parking is available but limited and requires expertise in parallel parking
Review 117:good location for access to old city; nice outdoor setting for breakfast with view of port; breakfast buffet was plentiful.
Review 118:Do not book hotel on saturdays or when gym is open. Very loud noise if gymlessons start.
Review 119:centrally located, near to airport and in the middle of the city.Good value for price.
Review 120:Too noisy, if I had known the suite was so close to the main road I would have requested a room away from the road. We both we're woken on several occasions by people shouting outside on the street so slept badly! Also no milk in the room ( or powdered) so couldn't have a cup of tea in the morning!!
Review 121:Great location, nice view, excellent breakfast
Review 122:Though the hotel was located near many sites to see within walking distance, it was in a flight path so you heard jets talking off.
Review 123:Very helpful staff. It was my birthday and the gave me a bottle of cava, which was a surprise. Also, they packed us a breakfast to take with us as we were checking out early.
Review 124:The rooms urgently need renovation. Very old furniture, outdated bathrooms with no space at all. No decoration in the room, but only a few miserable lights. 2 plugs for personal use in room and bathroom together. Wifi doesn't work most of the time.
Review 125:Modern Lobby with friendly staff. Breakfast room offers a great view on the marina. The hotel is located very close to the historic center.
Review 126:Rooms aren't as polished as some places, but balconies help!
Review 127:Fantastic location, great rooftop pool and a good breakfast spread. The perfect place to discover Faro from.
Review 128:Nothing really..except to improve the bedside lighting for reading..
Review 129:Excellent location..Very friendly helpful professional staff throughout the hotel....Hotel clean and comfortable..lovely food..central to all amenities..has its own roof-top swimming pool which is a bonus..lovely view from restaurant..Have stayed there THREE times now.. that is a recommendation in itself!!
Review 130:No tea or coffee making facilities.
Review 131:Had room with marina view on 4th floor, super views of old town and Coast. Very central to shops and restaurants. About 5 mins walk to both bus and train stations. Our flight home was late in the evening but we were allowed use of the pool for the day and shower afterwards. Staff very helpful and friendly.
Review 132:Rough individuals outside in car parking area shouting at each other loudly for many hours.
Review 133:Restaurant was reasonably priced. Swimming pool water was too cold to use however it was good being poolside.
Review 134:Restaurant staff quite rude and need training in customer service. This does not apply to all of them. Restaurant soul-less,
Review 135:Rooftop pool was lovely - reception staff very friendly making us really welcome, porter(s) likewise - marina view excellent especially at night.
