Hotel Algorfa

Nice clean hotel. Rooms bright and spacious. Tea ,coffee and bottled water was an added bonus! Comfortable beds with soft pillows! Good wetroom with nice shower. There was a constant dripping of water in the toilet cistern! Outside our room were 2 parrots in a cage which squarked and screeched. Thankfully all quiet during the night but started again at 7.45 which woke us up! Also, late at night a slamming door which we had to shut but it started again in the morning! Steak meal was nice. Steak cooked to perfection and coleslaw was the best. We asked for a sauce to have with the steak but not possible! Chips needed a few more minutes of cooking. Bakewell tart and icecream desert was delicious! Service was very slow but the waitresses kept apologising. It was OK as not in any rush or going anywhere else! Hotel is out of the village and nothing else around! Staff very friendly, helpful and cheerful. Thank you.

We decided to come for a Sunday Roast as our friends told us it was the best they had had. So we came on the 13th April with 2 of our friends. The Waitresses and waiters service was excellent although the soup could have been warmer in temperature and Roast potatoes could have been softer and not so greasy but everything else was fantastic. We are definitely coming again and we even looked around the hotel such a lovely place in the countryside we decided to book for a few nights in June! Highly recommended very clean hotel!

Three of us went for a Sunday lunch today. The meats were delicious and the selection of vegetables was excellent all served piping hot. There were plenty of accompaniments to go with your choice of meats and tasty hot gravy. For desert we had strawberry crumble which was served hot with custard. It was lovely. The lunch was very competitively priced and the staff were very attentive. I regularly go here as it’s such a friendly place with a great atmosphere.

Went for lunch at the hotel but when we arrived were told we could only have sandwiches and pastry’s. Asked if we could have chips but were told fryers were off but would put them on if we were prepared to wait which we did. Asked about sandwich fillings and were told they were made in the shop and it was like subway where you choose your filling 🙈 went to shop where a very poor and sad selection of fillings stared back at me. Bread here used to be amazing but tiger roll was pale and insipid. Salad was extra to the cost of the sandwich which was €4.95 and served on a paper plate which I carried through the restaurant to my table. My hubby ordered a slice of bread to go with his chips which was so thin it was see through and he had to collect himself along with the drinks we’d ordered. Have been here lots of times before but with a heavy heart will not be returning for food as this was the worst food I’ve had. Will also reconsider drinking there too as it seems to have gone down hill again. I know it’s winter but surely customers should still get good food and good service. Saw 2 couples walk away presumably because they couldn’t get any food.

Came for lunch today & left very disappointed. Staff were very slow, food was lukewarm but it was a carvery & took time to get from serving to table - partially our fault perhaps? Atmosphere & setting was like a cheap school canteen or motorway service station not nice unless you want cheap & cheerful. There are loads of other eateries around this area & the vast majority are way better sorry won't be back but what can you expect from anywhere catering solely to mature expats just wanting a cheap 'taste' of home.

One night stay booked last minute. We arrived late on a Thursday night. We just needed somewhere to sleep and get a quick snack. The staff were very friendly and helpful- opened the bakery, I chose a couple of things, they warmed them up for us, we had a drink and went to bed. The courtyard where the pool is seemed nice- the pool was immaculate. Our room was a little dated- furniture wise- but it was clean, the bathroom was clean and we slept well. The following night they had a tribute show on and were fully booked otherwise we’d have booked another night. The bad reviews & ratings seem to be about the food mainly, not the hotel/rooms. The events they put on are clearly very good and bring a lot of business in- which seems sensible as it is located somewhat in the middle of nowhere- which was fine for us as it was just a base for travelling through the area. We would stay again if we were in that area again.
