Alte Hotel

Hotel com uma localização fantástica com uma envolvente óptima. Hotel um pouco datado com alguns melhoramentos possíveis . Mas razoável para bom de pessoas.

The welcome, the service, the food were all excellent. It was a last minute decission to book ans stay in the Alte Hotel but we were glad we did, OK some of it is a little dated but so are we. Will definitely be staying there again. Thanks to all of the staff.

Start with the positives- beautiful view, nice looking hotel from the outside, reception staff welcoming and 'john' in the bar was superb, nothing was a problem for him, he went out of his way for us. Negatives- Dated rooms, curtains we're off a few hooks, stained inner curtain, they weren't the best, pool was fine but needs cleaned up ie the cracks around it and some chlorine in to keep the water fresh. It's 1km from the nearest town which is fine but its 1km up hill so wouldn't advise if you struggle to walk. Having to pay extra for a fridge, really should be in anyway same with tea and coffee, you would think they would have in but, you have to buy at the bar. We went half board for 1 week and the menu was OK for like 2 days but it was the same menu for lunch and dinner, would advise mixing it up. The breakfast was very basic and again, the same every morning. Some staff were abrupt, felt they were more for the other visitors and cleaners didn't really do much. If you want to go to albufeira, it cost us anything from €15-30 one way so would be best hiring a car. Overall an OK hotel for 1-2 nights max.

The hotel is situated on a steep hill overlooking magnificent countryside with the sea in the distance. Staff at the hotel are extremely friendly and helpful. On check in, we arrived at 950pm, the restaurant closed at 10. The receptionist literally ran down to the restaurant to ask the chef to cook us a meal as we were half board which was very kind. We were half board and the food was excellent. 3 starters and 6 or 7 mains to choose from. All was good and one night they had wild boar stew available which was my favorite. Desert was extra but only 2-3 euros and drinks very reasonable too. The village of Alte is very nice and very unspoilt. We did lots of walks around Alte which were fantastic and very few people. Swimming pool at the hotel is a good size and water kept in good condition. The rooms were cleaned each day. The room was a reasonable size and a balcony had great views too. Furniture was old but functional. All this review is positive but there were a couple of things that could be improved and at low cost; There was a lot of mould on the bathroom ceiling and tiles, and also staining on the bedroom ceiling. Taps had no shine , mirror was damaged. It made the room look very run down and the bathroom in particular, depressing. Some more general maintenance, replacing damaged items , and scrubbing off mould and ingrained grime could improve the room a lot, We did not complain and it may be we were just unlucky with this particular room. As I say, the food, value, staff location were great and we enjoyed our stay overall. I would stay again because of these positives.

We stayed here for two nights as we were attending a wedding at the Monte Do Serrhino Country House, about a 10 minute drive away. The hotel is perfectly placed for that venue and is just a 5 minute drive away from the cosmopolitan little town of Alte. We had a nice afternoon in Alte, there are plenty of little bars and it’s quite a bohemian atmosphere. The hotel has plenty of parking, and a pool which we didn’t have time to use during our stay. Our room had a nice terrace overlooking a pretty garden area. Furniture is a bit dated and it would have been nice to have tea and coffee-making facilities in the room, especially after a long drive to get there. The bar and restaurant is traditionally furnished, with good views. We are there on the first night and the service and food was nice. Breakfast is self-service and the choice is a little limited but it was ok.
