AP Eva Senses

Comfortable, clean, quite spacious, city view room; even though it overlooked a busy road, with the bus station next door, you couldn't hear any noise when the balcony door was closed. Fantastic view over harbour and Ria Formosa from breakfast restaurant. Ruben on reception was brilliant when we checked in. Hotel in probobly the best location in Faro, excellent for exploring this small city.

Hotel has the best location in Faro! Staff all speak amazing English and are super friendly and helpful.i have found this in general of the Portuguese people. Hotel breakfast buffet fantastic complete with soothing live music, pool large and has great bar. All rooms seem to have a balcony we overlooked the Marina which was amazing.

Piano playing at breakfast was a lovely personal touch for the mornings. Great views for plane spotting at the top of the hotel. Breakfast had a nice variety of options with fruits and pastries being my favourite. Location is brilliant by the marina for boat rides. Hotel is near cafes, shops, bus station and train station. Local area is perfect for a peaceful stroll. Local Park called Alameda is small but had a small water fountain and peacocks. Forum Algarve is a shopping mall that is about a 25 min walk or a 5 min taxi ride away.

My room had an excellent view of the harbour and I found the walk-in shower easy to use. The hotel is well located next to the old part of Faro and to other central areas of the city, with plenty of pleasant bars and restaurants nearby.. The train station is close by as is the bus station, which provides a convenient and cheap bus connection to the airport. The roof-top bar and restaurant are very welcoming spaces to be in, with excellent views over the harbour. There is plenty of choice available at breakfast, though see comment below.

This modern, clean, well cared for hotel is ideally located close to the marina and nearby the historic and commercial centre of Faro, the Algarve capital city. Faro international airport is a short distance away, easily reachable by taxi, which takes less than 10 minute drive from the hotel. Taxis are very reasonably priced, clean, punctual, and driven by knowledgeable, courteous drivers. Hotel Eva Senses is a really nice hotel which overlooks the marina, has a mixture of good sized rooms and suites. Our room was on the 3rd floor, accessible by lift or stairs, overlooking the town. Although it was a standard room, it was a good size with a large double bed, good sized ensuite with walk-in shower, ample hanging and storage space, air-conditioning which was unobtrusive when working, smart TV, small fridge/mini bar, tea/coffee making facilities, and a small safe to keep your passport and personal belongings secure when you were out. It also had its own private balcony, furnished with table and 2 chairs, ideal for chilling after a day walking around the town. Our bedroom was very well maintained throughout our stay by pleasant housekeeping staff. There are 2 restaurants, the one on the 5th floor has great views over the marina and out across the bay and coastal wetlands. The breakfast buffet is served here, and you can sit inside the restaurant itself, outside on its balcony, or in the glass roofed attached lounge. We could not fault the plentiful selection of fruits, cold meats and cheeses, freshly cooked fare, artisan breads, and a selection of small patisseries. Breakfast was accompanied by a talented pianist playing a varied selection on the restaurant’s grand piano. After breakfast we would walk through to the hotel’s outdoor swimming pool and relax poolside planning our days activities. There is also a Spa, health club, gym and onsite barber, but we passed on these!! We can certainly recommend the AP Eva Senses hotel if you are staying in Faro.
