Hotel Sol E Mar Albufeira - Adults Only

Excellent location for shopping,resterants and bars.Also excellent for sunbathing on he beach.

No outdoor swimming pool.

The rooms are air conditioned and great modern with a Nespresso machine and a lounge.

We were pleased with the hotel, excellent location right on beach with very easy access. Sea view in all rooms. Staff very friendly, clean comfortable rooms. Lovely spacious bar and live music. Plenty of nice restaurants and shops nearby. There was a fridge in the room but alas no coffee maker.

The small televisions perched high on corner wall were really hard on the eyes.

Warm continental breakfast - good selection.

I don't know how one can call the beach fantastic. It's just an ordinary city beach - crowded and dirty.It's impossible to sleep with open windows as drunk tourists shout all night. The rooms need renovation - it's not a 4 star hotel.

Very comfy beds in our guest room. With an electric kettle and a refrigerator. The pool area was great too. Unbeatable and incredible location in Albufeira, right by Algarve, the beach, cafes. Also, by the sea.

Not very helpful staff!

relaxed sunbathed shopped &eat meals out in very pleasant restaurants at very reasonable prices generally

Ideal position-right on beach, and in centre of town. Good balconeys overlooking beach. Breakfasts ok.

Don't eat in the sunset restarant. I ordered chicken in there. It was raw in the centre, with blood running out of it. I pointed it out to the waiter who shrugged his shoulders and asked if I was having dessert & coffee. Some chance! He threw the chicken straight in the bin, with no reference to the chef! I got the impression that it was an everyday occurrance!

Fine beach views!

Location was excellent, rooms clean and comfortable. The hotel in general is Tired and would benefit from some modernisation. But we enjoyed our stay

I arrived on the Friday afternoon, to a small but very pleasant hotel. I was on business and it was perfect for an overnight stay for myself. The staff were helpful and friendly. Very close to restaurants and bars, perfect for persons who want to be near the old town of Albuferia.

A balcony with amazing views

Waking up each morning to fine ocean views from my balcony was an absolute highlight. The beach access was seamless.

The check-in process was frustrating. Staff communication could definitely improve, and it took far too long to get into my room despite arriving on time.

Great location on the beach and next to the old town.

Definately location. Room very clean,towels changed every day,linen twice in week. All rooms have beautiful sea view. Breakfast has improved and change of dining room staff made breakfast a pleasurable experience. Lift takes you down to beach and old town is 5mins walk from hotel

We have stayed at the sol e mar many times over last ten years and read many of the negative reviews. It is what it is. It was 4star hotel 20years ago definately not now. Rooms are basic but clean, but hotel in general needs tlc. Staff in dining room used to be rude, that has changed. Breakfast was poor it is O.K. now. We always stay b&b as dinner was awful, but the hotel us 5mins walk from old town with its many restuarants.

great location but some room for improvement

The location is fantastic. It's close to the beach and various shops. Luis at the bar was excellent. His cocktails brightened my evenings.

The room, while good, felt a bit dated.
