Hotel Baltum

My wife and I were pleasantly surprised on how lovely our little “Boutique Like” Hotel right on the main strip in Albufeira was. We were so impressed. The staff were all very friendly and helpful with any questions. There is an awesome rooftop patio with a bar. And Great views from up there as well. The rooms were spacious and always clean. A great little restaurant is attached to the side. We had breakfast there every morning. Lots of breakfast selections. They also serve dinner there, but we ate dinners elsewhere, most nights. There are lots of little shops very close to Hotel Baltum. We found an amazing little store just to the right of the hotel entrance that sold wines and ports, and we found several amazing ports. Some for the room some we brought back to Canada. Prices were quite reasonable for this hotel because of that we are unsure of the quality, but we were pleasantly surprised that the price did not reflect what a great little hotel this is. In the evenings because of the proximity to the main strip, it could get loud in the later evenings from lots of bars in the area, but not enough to affect our sleep. We would highly recommend this Hotel if you are ever in Albufeira, Portugal. Paul and Andrea Canada

We were guests of the hotel off season and were well taken care of as such. The staff did good work. The rooms are quite dated and were uncomfortably humid. This was likely due to condensation from cool temperatures, something the hotel can't control. The location is good if you like nightlife and loud bars and being close to the beach. This involved guests coming back to rooms at all hours with zero soundproofing in the walls and doors. In addition, the rooftop was closed with no hot tub available...disappointing.

The hotel is in the perfect location in the heart of the restaurants and nightlife. That being said, if you value your sleep , this may not be the place for you. We checked the reviews before booking and saw that it can be noisy late into the night . I’m here to tell you that it is much noisier that you can possibly imagine. It does not stop till 4am . Thumping bass, karaoke, and yelling. You will have a window of peace from about 4am -7:30am when the hotel staff start making noise. The beds are not that great. The staff is excellent. The hotel is clean, and the area is fun . Oh, and did I say it’s very loud.

This hotel is lovely, the staff are friendly and always happy to help, the rooms are clean. The only thing that lets this hotel down is it's location, about 100 yards or so away there are bars that play really loud music until 3am in the morning, we slept with the windows closed due to this. We did research this hotel and a couple of others and didn't read anywhere about the music being so loud

The hotel is in the heart of Old Town and close to shopping, restaurants and beaches. The whole hotel smelled of rotten sewage. The elevator, halls and rooms stunk really bad. The room was extremely dirty. There was hair in every corner of the bathroom floor and mildew all throughout the shower, there were stains in the bedding and surfaces were dusty and streaky. I had to clean the room myself.
