Reviews for Zodiaco

Review 1：Zero

Review 2：The whole stay was enjoyable even when it was wet. I had to go each day to The Victoria Golf course to work the journey was easy due to the position of the hotel. I will be booking again for sure all the staff were wonderful

Review 3：This place lacks the spirit/ lacks the good atmosphere. The problem could be resolved by hiring a good manager who would explain to the staff thats its normal to smile, to say hello to the guests... Breakfast is terrible.

Review 4：Rooms are nice, newly furnished, beds are comfortable. Pool area is good.

Review 5：It was very noisy. People coming in late banging doors and generally being loud. Spoke to staff but weren't helpful. Need notices saying think of others!!!

Review 6：We took halfboard and breakfast was just okky but the dinner was awfull plus you hve to buy drinks at dinner.atleast they can give first complementry drink..Very dead and quiet hotel no entertainment at all..like u see in other hotel when you go around.No muzic at pool side..even you have to buy ice to cool u down..no fridge in room hve to rent it..

Review 7：The location of property to beach iz 5mins walk and pick and drop spot if you going waterparks..

Review 8：There was sometimes a really bad smell coming from the sink, shower and toilet we believed this was due to the piping

Review 9：One member of staff was very helpful and friendly

Review 10：I like the bathroom in special the shower. The room was normal size that you can move freely. The only downside is that we book as couple and we had a twin bed in the room without possibly to change for a double. And when we requested to join the beds they didn't had a link to remove the gap between beds. Also in the 3rd day they clean the room and bathroom they took all the dirty towels and forgotten to put the fresh towels. In general we enjoyed staying in the hotel.

Review 11：I like the option of having a cooked breakfast in a hotel. Continental just doesn't do it for me.

Review 12：The hotel is not in the centre of Quarteira and only 2 storeys so the peace n quiet is great. The staff were very friendly. The free wifi is great and available throughout the hotel. You have to pay a daily rate in some other hotels and coverage is only in the lobby.

Review 13：The staff were unfriendly.

Review 14：Nice rooms, comfortable, modern, good light, excellent AC,nice breakfast, near the beach (about 1/2 mile walk), beach is nice with lots of cafes and bars nearby. good parking.

Review 15：poor breakfast which level was far lower than hotel baseline;

Review 16：very kind and helpful staff; clean room with spacious bathroom; there was also pool, but we didn't used it

Review 17：They should have provided a free safe (deposit required of course), free fridge. The free wi-fii works less well in some rooms than others. No advice on travelling to and from the airport relatively inexpensively.

Review 18：Has a restaurant and friendly staff. Near to the sea with a supermarket nearby. Nice TV with foreign channels.

Review 19：Pool in sun all day but no sunbellas available at all in the hotel. Poor breakfast. Used mainly by travelling reps and overnight stays

Review 22：Hotel was very clean, rooms spacious and comfortable with a nice bathroom. Breakfast is continental but there is many options and you can eat as much as you want:)Definitely recommend this place for 1 or 2 nights stay.

Review 23：Not being able to watch tv as they only had news channels is english and I like to watch tv to fall asleep but just read a book instead .

Review 24：Having just returned from a 6 night stay here I have to say it is Fabulous value for money . Leonardo and the Manager were exceptional in making our stay . The beds are not hard like I read in reviews before I went, The entire hotel is immaculate. and the cost !!!! I don't know how they do it for all they charge , Can't rate it highly enough.

Review 25：really don't want to moan about this otherwise great hotel but we found the bed very very uncomfortable, we didn't actually manage to sleep through one night, it felt like sleeping on rocks!

Review 26：Location was great, easy to find and a superb base for travelling up and down the beaches along the Algarve and an easy walk to the beautiful local beach and restaurants. The staff were super friendly and always available.Breakfast was a real bonus with a great selection and the price was unbelievable value.

Review 27：Although asked for top floor and plenty available was put on 1st floor level bars at the window looking straight into the outside toilets felt like I was in prison with no balcony's.

Review 78：Huge pool and rooms were very spacious. Wifi was great too!

Review 79：Based at the far end of Quarteira, bit of a drag walking down to the beach or centre, hotel very good at getting taxis to Vilamoura.

Review 80：A clean tidy hotel, good value for money. Will use it again.

Review 81：I didn't like the facilities in the room. I Think they should have iron and iron board available for the guests. I needed to ironing my clothes I couldn't cause there's none available. Furthermore, there's no tea coffee available on the room. Very poor in that way. :(

Review 86：It was good overall. Staff mostly good. It was very clean.

Review 87：Nothing, it was fantastic value for money

Review 88：The staff, particularly the staff at the front desk who were so helpfuland friendly, far more so than any other hotel we've stayed in. Theygenuinely care about your stay and you enjoying yourself on holiday! Thecleaners were also fantastic, very thoughtful - gave us extra pillows inour rooms even though we hadn't asked!

Review 89：1. Food. Very little choice for breakfast (no juice, no omelette, a couple of kinds of yogurts) . I had also made a mistake by choosing the half board option, because the dinners were not inspiring as well. One could get nicer food in the town for about the same price. 2. No minibar in the room. 3. Located still a bit far from the beach, about 10 minutes by foot, the road was under reconstruction and not very pleasant.

Review 90：1. A large room (I stayed alone, but it would be spacious enough for a couple as well), new or recently renovated. All equipment worked well 2. The stuff at the reception was very nice and helpful.

Review 91：Difficult to find the hotel, had different postcode on my print to thaton website, couldn't find it on my navigation device, location ok,short walking distance to seaside 10-15 minutes, there are no shops orrestaurants close by, you need to walk to seaside, although there aremany developments going around so probably it'll be different nextyear, you need to pay for safety deposit box and fridge

Review 92：Big, nice, clean room, although no balcony but we were aware of that,clean swimming pool, nice design inside, friendly staff breakfast ok butno vegetables, big parking, Wi-Fi everywhere, but the signal quite weakoverall very good hotel

Review 93：againn for 2 people only given one key card. first morrning after breakfast brought an apple with me from the buffet and was followed by a membe of staff who informed me that all food from the buffet should be eaten in the dining room took the apple off me made me feel like i was a petty thief. upset my holiday. could not relax in the hotel after that. also entering the hotel was like a bulding site as there was road works going on outside the hotel.

Review 94：Our third year staying in same hotel did not enjoy this stay as much as before.

Review 95：The hotel seems to be understaffed, the room cleaning we requested in the morning could only be carried out in the late afternoon, the free wifi in the room is exceptionally slow; no shampoo and shower gel provided.

Review 96：The breakfast is very simple. Slightly higher quality jams, cheese, etcwould make a big difference.

Review 97：Friendly and efficient staff and very good value for money make thishotel a good choice.

Review 98：internet doesn't work really good (was very slow)

Review 99：perfect location, between the most beautiful nature beach part & the more touristic part, nice swimming pool. basic but good quality breakfast.

Review 100：Quality and cleanliness of every part of Hotel. Excellent friendly staff always willing to help, advise and always with a genuine smile.Nice well kept pool area.

Review 101：Absolutely nothing!

Review 102：Great value for money and will stay again. I have rarely stayed in a hotel where every part of it was so clean and the decoration of such a high standard.

Review 103：No complaints.

Review 104：Fantastic value for money. Plenty of space in the hotel and in therooms. Location is on the edge of town, but not a problem as I had a carand wanted to do some cycling. Good mini supermarket is only 5 minuteswalk away. Restaurants and beach only 10 minutes walk.

Review 105：As we were there in January we knew that no dinners would be served andmost of the restaurants in Quarteira were also closed.

Review 106：The receptionist on our arrival was extremely helpful. Good free wifi.

Review 107：Breakfast is a bit monotonous but bearing in mind this is included inthe room price, no complaints.

Review 108：What you see is what you get. A very good 3 star hotel with basicfacilities. However this does include a good bar and a nice unheatedpool. This trip was out of season so not everything was available but Ihave been there several times in the past and will go again.

Review 109：Sheets on the beds were skimpy. Tv programmes didnt cater for Englishspeaking guests.

Review 110：Value for money. Air conditioning very good. Breakfast excellent.

Review 111：The only English tv channels were bbc world and Euro news, although weweren't there to watch tv it was a bit boring listening to the same newswhen spending any time in the room and there are no music channels. Aword of advice, if you have an Android phone, the hotel WiFi will notwork, much to our dismay :(Breakfast is very basic as others have stated and the same everyday. Lunch choices were ok but we found the restaurants in Quarteira a little cheaper and nicer. Some to mention Fantasia, Fernando's Hideaway and Marufo 1. The rooms were rather basic but had everything you needed, the pillows however were the most lumpy I had ever experienced and need some serious replacement!

Review 112：Zodiaco is a simple hotel located a 10 minute walk away from the centreof Quarteira. The hotel itself looks a little dated and would certainlybenefit from a bit of a facelift but the cleanliness and helpfulness of(most) staff more than make up for it.The pool is just the right size with sun all day long and due to travelling in September, we never had any trouble at all getting a sunbed.

Review 113：Perhaps it was late in the season. There was very little entertainment to experience in the evening other than visit restaurants in the area..

Review 114：The location was away from the skyscraper hotels nearby. The staff were always very helpful The pool area was very inviting with access to ice creams and drinks The food was mostly good to adequate

Review 115：Hotel facilities are excellent. The rooms an public areas are modern and well designed. The hotel staff are great, nothing is ever too much trouble. The pool area is probably one of the best in Quartiera. Breakfasts are really good with lots of choice. The main promenade in Quartiera is a short 10 minute walk, but you can always stop off at a local bar along the way. Will definitely be coming back soon!

Review 116：Nothing

Review 117：The swimming pool is excellent, apparently it is the largest pool on Quartiera. All the hotel staff are so friendly and helpful. Breakfast is really good with lots of choice. Will be back later on this year!

Review 118：Nothing Thanks for a lovely relaxing and memorable experience

Review 119：We were immediately impressed with the quality of the hotel and theabsolute cleanliness throughout.We found all staff polite, friendly andso willing to help,with a smile.Our room was very nicely appointed. Wewere able to relax in the hotel, the pool area is beautiful. Breakfastprovided a very wide choice, nice fresh food and very tasty fruit.VALUEFor money is also a factor, zodiaco is excellent in this regard

Review 120：it would have been nice to have a couple of English channels on the TV for the rainy days

Review 121：The hotel was quiet and comfortable and spotlessly clean. The breakfast was good and the pool looked lovely (even if it was a little cold to use it).

Review 122：Tea and coffee making facilities in the room would have been welcome; aswould the provision of shampoo / shower gel, given airlines restrictionson carrying liquids, though there was a single soap dispenser on thewall by the sink.

Review 123：Helpful, friendly, quiet and comfortable. Excellent value for money.Very adequate buffet breakfast. Good sized rooms with electric black outwindow shutters. Availability of wifi and room safes for a small fee.Good parking. Overall, much less basic than I had feared for the price

Review 124：The price for bed and breakfast was great .

Review 125：Lift out of order I was on 2nd floor

Review 126：Staff v good location good
