2-Star Hotels in Faro District, Portugal

This is by far the best hostel I stayed at, in spite of the number of occupants. I was lucky to have very quiet boys in the room. There’s only one bathroom, connected to the room, but it worked. The hostel is new, modern and spotless. The owner is very friendly. The hostel is also 5 minutes walk from the beach. It was perfect. It’s a long walk to Albufeira from the city buses, and not very clear where the FlixBus stops. I wouldn’t recommend walking from the train station, which took me 4 hours. There’s a local bus, don’t scrimp = TAKE IT. Or take an Uber, or Bolt. Or ask the taxi what he wants to charge from the bus stop at the train station ! The RedeExpress is where the bus station is (but not for the FlixBus). In summary, you can go to Albufeira by FlixBus, but it’s difficult to know where FlixBus leaves Albufeira from. That all said, Albufeira is very difficult in high season, TOO CROWDED, but the Portuguese are tolerant and very patient because they know that tourism is lucrative and has raised the whole country out of poverty. Residents enjoy cheap and / or free public transport on local buses (cheap monthly passes). Residents are respectful and kind. You can practice your Portuguese with them for a laugh, but they all speak English to varying degrees. Here you can meet real residents. On the beach, not necessarily in the pubs. I loved it here. Don’t miss it.

Perfect for budget travelers, this hostel in Lagos' old town offers good value by balancing a central location with a quiet, restful atmosphere. Just a 10-minute walk from the beaches and scenic coastal cliffs, the clean dorms feature individual lamps, power sockets, and free towels, with secure lockers available for only 1€ per night. Guests can enjoy a seamless check-in and a fully equipped communal kitchen that opens onto a small inner courtyard—an ideal spot for dining or socializing just steps away from the city's restaurants and shops.

All good, i recommend it for families also, near the shopping mall & train station.

Great location! Cozy «family» dinners for cheap every night at Hostellicious with delicious homemade dishes, wine, sangria at the family barbecue at Casa D’Alagoa (see pictures) Everybody was very respectful in my 6 person female only room, and quiet at night. Made friends with many of them every day during my stay!  Lots of places to hang with people both inside and on the patio, beautiful interior  Lots of activities with great prices just for people staying at the hostel, like boat tours, hiking, bike rentals, pub crawls every night with hostellicious Bring a padlock with a thick neck, a thinwire padlock doesn’t work for keeping your drawer locked.  Sun umbrellas can be rented for like €3!! Took it to the praia de Faro. Just a ten min walk to the port from the hostel, €4 with the ferry, amazing long ***** of beaches  Faro has my ♡

Of the pluses: The apartments are small but quite comfortable. The main + for me is having a washing machine that also dries clothes well. Location is good, there are all the dishes and everything necessary for cooking, pillows, pads, tugging, vent Minorities: ”to get the keys you need to go to another address and it is not mentioned! I spent about an hour trying to call them to find out where their office is, it's horrible! Although the guys in the office are very nice, to call/to finish this separate quest! - it smells so much moisture and black mold, for more than 2 nights I wouldn 't stay only because of health threats ”This is the first floor, and the windows are without grids! So when you can no longer breathe black moth and want to open the window, it turns out that any passing person can climb into the window to you!

The location is good, about a 20-minute walk from the train station and bus terminal, and it's very close to the center. The staff are also friendly. The kitchen is a bit small and there is one bathroom for both men and women on each floor, so it's best to avoid busy times. There is a bar on the first floor that is open late, so it can be a bit noisy at night, so it may be difficult for sensitive people.

Negative points: The beds were not very comfortable for two people as they are not well bundled. The showers are also improved, you need to press the button every three seconds to get water and have no tub, so the screw is fixed. The room was very comfortable and was very comfortable. Check In quite late. Insonorization could also be better. The positive: Friendly at reception Breakfast included Quite good location, only a little complicated sometimes to park but have a garage space option Shoes and common areas loan

Clean and hygienic environment ok, public areas are very good

The hotel is located on a quiet street with quick and easy access to the marina and beaches. There are a lot of food options nearby. If you drive, a covered parking lot is within few minutes walk. The parking garage accepts Visa debit cards. I think Visa and Master credit cards work too. Overall I am very happy with my stay.

This was such a beautiful stay. All the staff there were so lovely and accomodating. When arrived we were told we had a room upgrade which was amazing, we also had a bus which didn’t leave until later and the staff were lovely enough to let us leave our bags and hang around until we needed to go. The pool is area is beautiful and so spacious, there is also an amazing restaurant next door.
