Hotel Dom Pedro Portobelo - Vilamoura, Portugal     

First of all, Do you believe they stolen my suitcase in the day time, I went to the police and I make a report. 2.Old furniture. 3. this hotel is rated as a 4 star. A 2 star rating would be more appropriate. I booked this hotel because it is advertised as 4 star facilities and service with the privacy of self cataring.In my opinion it offered neither. This hotel one star that enough for it. 4.On entry it is like passing through some sort of time machine and going back thirty years. The rooms are disgraceful! The furniture and fittings are ancient. The inside of the kettle has more lime scale than I have ever seen. the bathroom was dark and the fittings were disgusting.

The hotel has a great location, 100m from Marina and 100m from beach. We had a sea view room on the 8th floor which had a great view. However the hotel is directly opposite the Vilamoura Casino which can be very noisy at closing time (4am) with cars and people shouting! When we stayed the pool was being refurbished (which we weren’t advised of) which meant a lot of noise from the builders (7am-7pm) but we were able to use the facilities of the two partner hotels which were 50m away. We had a Studio room (including fully furnished kitchen) which was very spacious and well fitted out although as with many hotels, the lack of clothes hangers was a nuisance. The decor is in need of some TLC, with damp patches and cracking plaster in the bathroom and wood trim and air-con vents hanging off in the bedroom.
