We had a wonderful stay in this hotel. The hotel was very clean and the rooms were a good size. The staff were friendly and always willing to help. We particularly enjoyed using the roof terrace which was well-equipped with sun beds and the pool provided welcome relief in the heat. The hotel is situated right next to a good supermarket and a shirt walking distance from the beautiful town.

Property and staff great. Rooms cute and updated. We did not love the location - while walkable to everything the neighborhood/end of town was a bit run down. Overall seemed though.

Authentic Tavira is a quirky hotel with charm. My travel companions and I were able to walk throughout Tavira to experience various points of interest. The room was modest and clean, thanks to the cleaning staff. Now for the disadvantages. Upon arrival, the day- time front desk staff (older woman) was impatient and annoyed in regards to questions/confusions with the check-in process. Instead of being understanding and taking the time to clarify, she got irritated and inhospitable. In order to use the Wifi, you have to keep the television on. It disconencts and glitches once in a while so it's good to have a data plan. The lighting in the room is poorly allocated, especially the bathroom. During the day, the front desk staff is difficult to reach and are not available to guests. There is a pay coffee machine that the guests are not permitted to use on their own. Furthermore, there was no milk/lightener in machine. There is a lack of sound privacy. So if intimacy is your goal, proceed with caution. Be aware, that if you book a cab from the airport through the hotel, you have to pay the taxi directly. One of several confusions not explicitly communicated by the staff. I give the hotel a generous 3 stars but the overall vibe needs work.

Loved the property. The staff went the extra mile to make sure or our stay was pleasant. The breakfast is amazing and much more than we could eat. Unfortunately the bathroom door would not close. I would have thought that was something they would fix over the winter months.

I spent 4 nights in the Authentic Tavira hotel and will definitely return. The staff were very welcoming, the room spotless and bed very comfortable. The roof top terrace was the ideal place for a quiet read. I don’t swim so the plunge pool was perfect to cool me down.The hotel is convenient to the old town where there is lots to see and restaurants in abundance.

Great little hotel (12 rooms on two floors) in a central location 5 mins' walk from the centre of the town and the Roman Bridge. All staff are excellent and very helpful especially the ones who work serving breakfast each day. We were also allowed early check in when we arrived at lunchtime with no bother. The room and bed were very comfortable, good quality bedding and towels, great strong shower. Some road noise can be heard but it quietens during the night. Very handy for local Pingo supermarket 2 mins' walk away -the fridge in the room is silent and very useful for water, juice, fruit, beer etc. We didn't use the rooftop terrace or pool as we were out each day, and it wasn't warm enough to plunge in the pool yet anyway. Nice to have a balcony but not the best view! Would recommend.

What a great find. After coming to Tavira for over 35 years I was pleasantly surprised to find this hotel. The staff are very good and the breakfast is lovely. The rooftop area is very relaxing with some great views over Tavira. All bars and restaurants are within a short walking distance. I will definitely stay here again.
