"I would have given this place 5 stars, if it wasn’t for the bed. The staff and the property were wonderful, but the bed was awful. The sheet were itchy and the mattress itself was a little spring. It honestly messed up my back for days, and I don’t have a bad back and am not picky when it comes to a bed. My friend, who was staying in the same room on another twin bed, luckily did not have this experience. Her bed was firm, but not springy. Her sheets were also softer."

Castelo Suites Hotel

Castelo Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful hotel, would definitely recommend and stay again! I got a tour of the facilities as soon as I arrived which I loved as it meant I didn’t have to discover things independently and wonder how things worked. The room was gorgeous, just bear in mind the toilet and shower share the same door, I didn’t mind as I was travelling solo. The food was delicious! Everything I ate tasted good from the breakfast to the lunch to the dinner, everything was tasty! The only room for improvement is the WiFi, at times it would drop if I went from my room to the pool for example but it came back minutes after so not the end of the world. I loved staying here so much and would definitely stay here again if coming to Portugal"
