Hostels in Faro District, Portugal

This is by far the best hostel I stayed at, in spite of the number of occupants. I was lucky to have very quiet boys in the room. There’s only one bathroom, connected to the room, but it worked. The hostel is new, modern and spotless. The owner is very friendly. The hostel is also 5 minutes walk from the beach. It was perfect. It’s a long walk to Albufeira from the city buses, and not very clear where the FlixBus stops. I wouldn’t recommend walking from the train station, which took me 4 hours. There’s a local bus, don’t scrimp = TAKE IT. Or take an Uber, or Bolt. Or ask the taxi what he wants to charge from the bus stop at the train station ! The RedeExpress is where the bus station is (but not for the FlixBus). In summary, you can go to Albufeira by FlixBus, but it’s difficult to know where FlixBus leaves Albufeira from. That all said, Albufeira is very difficult in high season, TOO CROWDED, but the Portuguese are tolerant and very patient because they know that tourism is lucrative and has raised the whole country out of poverty. Residents enjoy cheap and / or free public transport on local buses (cheap monthly passes). Residents are respectful and kind. You can practice your Portuguese with them for a laugh, but they all speak English to varying degrees. Here you can meet real residents. On the beach, not necessarily in the pubs. I loved it here. Don’t miss it.

Great location. 5 minute walk to main bus station, 5 minute walk to the harbour *****. Room was spotless, as were toilets and showers. Was a locker and key if required. Though I never used the kitchen, it was clean and looked well stocked. The sun terrace is amazing, traps the sun the whole day. Plenty of grocery and restaurants in the street. Highly recommend!

Great location! Cozy «family» dinners for cheap every night at Hostellicious with delicious homemade dishes, wine, sangria at the family barbecue at Casa D’Alagoa (see pictures) Everybody was very respectful in my 6 person female only room, and quiet at night. Made friends with many of them every day during my stay!  Lots of places to hang with people both inside and on the patio, beautiful interior  Lots of activities with great prices just for people staying at the hostel, like boat tours, hiking, bike rentals, pub crawls every night with hostellicious Bring a padlock with a thick neck, a thinwire padlock doesn’t work for keeping your drawer locked.  Sun umbrellas can be rented for like €3!! Took it to the praia de Faro. Just a ten min walk to the port from the hostel, €4 with the ferry, amazing long ***** of beaches  Faro has my ♡

The location is good, about a 20-minute walk from the train station and bus terminal, and it's very close to the center. The staff are also friendly. The kitchen is a bit small and there is one bathroom for both men and women on each floor, so it's best to avoid busy times. There is a bar on the first floor that is open late, so it can be a bit noisy at night, so it may be difficult for sensitive people.

Negative points: The beds weren't very comfortable for two people as they weren't properly joined. The showers could also be improved; you have to press the button every three seconds to get water, and there's no hose, so the spray is constant. The room said it overlooked a courtyard, but it actually overlooks a common area where anyone passing by can see you. Check-in was quite late. The soundproofing could also be better. Positive points: Friendliness at reception Breakfast included Quite good location, just a bit tricky to park sometimes, but they do have a parking space available Location: Umbrellas available for rent and in common areas

Great location, right next to the Little Chapel. The kitchen is a bonus for cooking, and the shared bathrooms are spacious with multiple showers, all very clean and tidy!

A lovely guest house with a friendly and welcoming environment. The rooms were spotless, the facilities were excellent, and everything was thoughtfully arranged for guests' comfort. The hospitality was exceptional, and I felt very well taken care of during my stay. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing and comfortable place to stay.

The location is strategic and the staff are super friendly. We came early and able to place our luggage there till check in timing. Location is near many eating outlets and the breakfast was great. Love the juice that was specially prepared- blend of melon, banana and apple.

Really well equipped, handy for the airport and everyone was very friendly. Booking in and out straightforward and well informed .Very much enjoyed our dip in the small pool

I stayed for a day. Perfect place. Budget friendly. Very spacious kitchen and common area. Quite clean. The house keeper was very friendly and stated the rules very clearly. The restaurants nearby were good for me. The beach was very good. I enjoyed the trip.
