We chose the penthouse as we wanted a king bed and a fridge. The bed was larger than an English super king bed. Very spacious, exactly as seen online. Extremely comfortable bed and pillows. Great balcony. Rooms had double aspect.

Hidden Gem

Beautifully designed and recently renovated small hotel in the centre of the old town. Forget the usual resort hotels, Solar Mendonca is at a whole different level. Period charm outside, ultra high tech inside. The owner is passionate about the building and that shows in the high specification and clever design. We had an apartment which was very well equipped. Perfect temperature control and sound proofing in every room when you want it, roof terrace or balcony if you don't. Restaurants, shops and Sunday farmer's market are right outside. Nice cold Vinho Verde in the apartment was the perfect welcome. Thank you to Helder and his team for superb stay. Fabuloso!

We had a great stay at Solar Mendoça, it is a wonderful hotel with equally as wonderful staff. The location is perfect and easy access from the train station (about a 10 min walk on level streets) also it’s very close to old town. It’s right near an astounding cathedral and near chapel of bones. It’s near everything! The room is super clean, decorated beautifully and very comfortable. There is also a small fridge and small coffee/tea station where they have provided nice tea selections (since I’m the tea drinker), husband said coffee was good too. Philipe & Vitalii were so kind, friendly and helpful. They gave us tips for places and restaurants to try but of course go explore, there’s so many charming and fun places to see. Faro was a lovely visit and we look forward to returning. Make your reservations here, it’s a top notch hotel we highly recommend! Thank you.

Très bien situé, tout Faro est accessible à pieds, pour le reste il y a les bus ou les ferry juste à côté. Très bon accueil (merci FIlipe), tout est propre. Le rooftop est sympa pour se poser ou même pour manger. En revanche comme c'est en ville avec des rues pavées c'est un peu bruyant la nuit, de plus les occultant des fenêtres ne sont pas suffisants, ça ne serait pas un souci s'il n'y avait pas l'éclairage urbain. Pour ceux qui ont besoin du noir pour dormir, ne pas oublier votre masque de nuit. Et à savoir les chambres en rez-de chaussée ont des vitres opaques + rideaux donc on ne profite de l'extérieur que sur le rooftop.
