Beautiful hotel . But the bar beside the reception the noise that is can be heard in the actual hotel rooms . When you have an early start and the noise is still going on at 1am it is quite frustrating . The rooms are in a circular direction and the sound travelled the whole way through the hotel and we were on the the 5th floor ..

If this were a 3 Stars hotel I would give them a better rating. However, the experience for been a 5 starts hotel is not complete. Room was pack of mosquitos and they switch us from the room to another. Hotel changers you £2 for every bottle of water, and 5 € for every 75cl of water its absurd to say that the hotel is 5 stars and pay extra for water. As well as the sunbeds at the beach, they charge you €25 per day for a couple of beds. Beach is all right. Great location, great service from staff. Good breakfast ( however no bananas or any fruit that I you can take for the day) good food for dinner.

The hotel was nice and had a lovely pool. The breakfast had lots of choice but not great quality. The pool bar food was very expensive and again lacked quality. The cleaners were very loud in the morning between 8:30-9:30 every day and didn’t tidy away dirty plates/mugs. The turn down service was too early being between 4-5pm. However there was a complimentary shuttle service to the beach which was convenient. The hotel had a great table tennis and foosball table which was enjoyable. The area felt safe but you had to get a taxi if you wanted to go and explore further.

This was our 8th stay at the Ria , and it still offers great value for money. Excellent location , easy walk to beach , and within a short drive to all the amazing restaurants in the area. We were in room 503 , which was clean and mainly good condition , although the bathroom needed a little bit of TLC , cracked grouting etc, however I noted that the rooms either side of us were being stripped down ready for some form of refurb, and as the hotel shuts for the winter on the 31st October , I assume now we have departed our room will also be stripped down for refurb.

Ria Park Hotel & Spa was a great choice for us. It had all the facilities we needed as a young family and was literally a short walk away from the beach which was one of the main reasons we booked with Ria. A special mention also for Ria kids club for keeping our son well entertained. Would happily recommend Ria, their staff were also very helpful and friendly. Thank you.

Very nice, high-end hotel nestled in a tranquil upscale area with quiet surroundings. Impeccable quality all the way from check-in to room to dinner and breakfast. It's worth the stay if ever you're in the Almancil area of The Algarve.
