Facilities in rooms were good, the rooftop restaurant and breakfast were special. However don’t believe their soundproofing claim - we had bad noise from outside clubs and bars which went on all night. There was also noise from above from scraping chairs and tables. The hotel has little atmosphere and unfortunately the staff all missed the customer service training.

Just one night

The room and bathroom were clean. Beds are comfy, Shower is over the bath and could do with a slip mat. We were in room 325, a basic room, overlooking a street, the window opens inwards and wide. The air conditioner is very noisy. But overall for one night it was good. Breakfast was just ok.

Our 2nd time staying at the Hotel Faro, and our stay was just as good! Location is great, and the service and staff are top notch - so friendly and professional. The rooftop bar and restaurant is amazing, and the breakfast buffet is probably one of the best buffets I’ve had. Highly recommend the Hotel Faro for a first class stay.
