Great place to spend a week, good links to town centre and local walks along promenade. Buffet and breakfast was excellent. Could improve communication on facilities, as staff could not supply English language text on the TV (remained in German due to IT problem).

Very nice hotel. Rooms are showing a little bit of wear and tear but very clean. Breakfast buffet fit for a king! Great outdoor pool, but not heated so it was rather cold in November. Indoor pool, jacuzzi and sauna were also great. I just wished they would not close at 8pm. After hiking the lavadas, and dinner we really had to hustle to be able to use these facilities for at least a little bit. Definitely would stay again.

Location and views.

Views from balcony, location and check in staff were great. Hotel was very clean but a little tired and very dark and stale in the hallways. Bed was saggy. Breakfast buffet was extensive in choices and decent in quality. Staff there really friendly too.

All things considered a Beautiful place to visit 👍

We had an absolutely perfect stay at Pestana Promenade! The rooms are lovely and spacious. The only thing that bugged me was the big arch blocking our view of the sea partially. A few rooms have this problem. The staff are amazing, especially the cleaning ladies who do a wonderful job and are very kind. Amazing staff in the restaurant as well! Thank you Pestana, we will be returning for sure!😀

Unfortunately I cannot give a good review in general as the room we stayed had many flaws as I’m listing below. Air conditioning was very poor, not enough to cool the room for the night. We could not open the terrace window as it was right on the Promenade making it uncomfortable to have a sit down outside. The room was very small and more appropriate to a 2 star hotel. The facilities in general were very good, pool, jacuzzi, restaurant….etc The staff were fantastic however I cannot hide the fact that the room was the down side of our holidays, DO NOT CHOOSE THE PROMENADE ROOMS!!!! After 15 miles of hiking we deserve a good rest to tackle the next day, unfortunately that did not happen due to the room being very poor for a 4 star hotel Breakfast was fine and very well served!

The Initial rooms that were offered were totally unfit for purpose. Labeled as Promenade view they should not be used as sleeping rooms more suitable for shops.

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort

Not great

This is far from a 4 star hotel. Breakfast is average. Housekeeping pretty average when an iron was requested they never brought it and one day didn’t leave towels after taking the dirty ones. The main issue is our room had a strong smell of sewage. There is another review of this hotel from May discussing the horrible smells on the same floor and this clearly was not addressed. The bed is like a hostel cot. The pool while heated is still too cold. The jacuzzi is not hot at all I wouldn’t even consider it lukewarm. The sauna and Turkish bath have strange hours (closed from around noon til 430). The room is run down. I would not recommend staying here.
