Firstly, it’s an older building and that adds to the charm, so don’t expect an ultra modern room. The young lady on reception was outstanding, she couldn’t be more helpful when I wanted to connect my Firestick to the room tv to watch live football 😉. Breakfast included was excellent and plentiful and although I never thought we would use it, the food at the Bistro attached to the hotel served really good food - with the bonus of a 15% discount as a hotel guest. Location was perfect for everything Tavira had to offer

We booked a room with a terrace. That meant being on the third floor and no elevator. The trade off was that we had a beautiful view of the river watching the passenger ferry come and go. The staff was very helpful with recommendations for eating and activities. The hotel was the perfect place for us to relax at the beach after spending 10 days driving the entire length of the N2 from North to South. We would stay here again.

This hotel is a good choice for someone who needs a rest from busy daily life. It has has a great location as it is next to the ferry for the beach, a restaurant is on a ground floor, a main market hall is 5 minutes away. Big shopping centre is over the river - also quite close. Also near the bus station (train is further away). The residencia is well organised, the staff is helpful. I would not recommend another alternative place to stay in Tavira as there are in a different category.
