What guests think
At Roots Hotel, travelers highlight modern, apartment-style rooms with kitchenettes, consistently high cleanliness, and warm, efficient service, while the central location near the train and bus stations makes it easy to explore Faro and reach the airport.
Guests appreciate spacious layouts, balconies or terraces, and thoughtful touches like free coffee and a small pool/courtyard. Common caveats include some street-facing noise and a not very picturesque immediate area, limited and tight paid parking, and occasional minor issues such as limited pool seating or small in-room quirks. Overall, expect a convenient apartment-style base well suited to exploring Faro.

Facilities
A small pool and quiet courtyard provide a pleasant place to relax, and free coffee is available in the lounge. On-site garage parking exists but is limited, tight to access, and paid; street parking can be hit or miss.

What a perfect oasis! The calm, cool courtyard and pool, the spacious and super clean room, the perfectly comfortable bed with dark curtains for deep sleep all allows us to have fun and adventures in the sun knowing we could rest deeply when we got back to the hotel.

Excellent location in Faro, central but down a side street. Very near train and bus station. A lovely, friendly hotel. We had a room with a balcony facing the pool, it was modern and clean. The pool, although very small was enough for a dip after a day of sightseeing. It was very nice area to relax. The hotel as a whole was a peaceful place to be with friendly, helpful staff.

The Roots Hotel was very convenient and comfortable, with a great location. We needed a parking spot, which they provided in an underground garage for a cost of 7 euros per day. We also needed to be near the train station, which was a very short walk from the hotel. And we wanted to be near Faro Airport, which was a short taxi ride away. In addition, there were tons of restaurants within a few blocks from the hotel. So the location was ideal for our stay and the front desk was very friendly. They offered complimentary coffee/cappuccino, etc in a room off the lobby. The room itself had a good separate bathroom with a large shower, a kitchenette with a fridge, sink, stove, microwave and dishes/dishwasher. We had no complaints about the room at all. Out of the 6 hotels we stayed at during our visit to Portugal, The Roots would be rated in the top two. I would definitely stay there again!

We absolutely loved our stay at Roots Hotel! Great location in Faro. Walking distance to train and bus stations. Short walk to the town. Spotlessly clean hotel with cooking facilities in the rooms. Little Pool to cool off in, great complimentary coffee in the dining area. Very friendly and helpful staff. Would return if visiting Faro in the future!

Great location, less than a 10 minute drive from the airport and just a 5 minute walk to the marina and both the bus and train stations. Close to all the shops and bars in Faro. Rooms are modern and spotlessly clean with good facilities for self catering (although we didn’t try these out!). Staff were friendly and helpful. Great little courtyard where you could sit and enjoy a tea or coffee - supplied free of charge and regularly replenished. I fully intend to return to Faro and would definitely book a return stay here.

Rummet var fint och rent. Poolen var lite kall vilket nog hade funkat en varm dag. Trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Lite ofräscht dock med pyttesmå myror på golvet i badrummet. Frukost i box med all mat i små påsar okej men ganska förpackningsslösigt. Hade också hellre velat kunna välja vad jag ville äta själv.

L’hotel en soi est très bien: propre, accès un une piscine ( minuscule mais agréable), chambre équipée d’une cuisinette. Cependant, assurez-vous d’avoir une chambre côté jardin car la rue devant est extrêmement passante. J’ai payé un surplus pour avoir un balcon mais, impossible d’en profiter car ça sentait trop l’essence des voitures et beaucoup trop bruyant. On nous a offert de changer de chambre pour la deuxième nuit seulement, mais toujours coté rue. De plus, une odeur épouvantable envahissait la chambre; le personnel est tres réactif; les femmes de chambre sont venues nettoyer mais le problème n’était pas résolu; je pense que ça venait des égouts. J’imagine que si vous avez une chambre coté jardin, votre expérience sera meilleure que la notre.

We stayed for two nights. The hotel feels new and the rooms are spotless and spacious. Easy to walk a few blocks to the waterfront train station and historic center. Kitchen was well equipped. We were in top floor one bedroom with nice balcony sitting area and peek views of the water. A very comfortable stay.

We were extremely pleased with our spacious room, and especially the spectacular balcony with tons of space, a table and chairs, two comfortable chaise longues and a cute hanging chair. It was super comfy and super quiet on the top floor, with a great firm bed. We didn’t order the breakfast box, but we can see the appeal of having it delivered to your door and eating on the balcony. Instead, we took advantage of the many excellent and reasonable restaurants within super close walking distance. The staff at the 24/7 front desk were friendly and helpful. The free all-day coffee and tea was a nice touch as well. The only negative point we can think of is that the safe was very small, and did not fit a larger tablet or a laptop. Regardless, this was a gem of a hotel in the beautiful city of Faro, and we would return in a heartbeat.

What a fantastic hotel. The place looks brand new. We had room 43 which is on the top floor and is a self contained apartment with the convenience of a hotel reception. Full kitchen and fridge and large balcony with city views. Very near train and bus station and short walk to town. 5 Star review. Well done.

What a great hotel and exceptional staff! Everything was clean and new due to some recent remodeling. Our room was perfect with a loaded kitchenette. The only negative I would say is the small bathroom sink with disproportionately large faucet that made it difficult to wash your face or lean into the sink. Everything is within walking distance as well.

We chose this hotel due to proximity, as we arrived by train, and wanted to be able to walk everywhere downtown. We were fortunate to stay at this modern, clean, bright property for 5 nights. We checked in with super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff. Each day we passed through the lobby multiple times as we went out to explore Faro and the surrounding beautiful district. We often stopped by the front desk for an inquiry, recommendation, or just to visit and joke for a minute. Staff went above and beyond, and soon felt like friends. The pool is clean and refreshing. The 24 hr free coffee/latte/hot chocolate etc machine was another bonus. Our kitchen was well stocked, and despite the MANY nearby and delicious restaurants, it's always nice to have the option of preparing a meal as well. I would encourage you to enjoy Roots Hotel when in Faro.

Excellent hotel and staff. Location is good, a few minutes to the marina and old town. The rooms were spacious and the kitchenette was a bonus if you wanted to make breakfast etc. staff are nice and helpful, they helped us book a private tour for 8 of us as the others were fully booked. Free tea, coffee and hot chocolate was a great idea, we would usually meet up in the breakfast room and have a coffee before heading out. Would definitely recommend the Roots Hotel.

The Roots Hotel was very convenient and comfortable, with a great location. We needed a parking spot, which they provided in an underground garage for a cost of 7 euros per day. We also needed to be near the train station, which was a very short walk from the hotel. And we wanted to be near Faro Airport, which was a short taxi ride away. In addition, there were tons of restaurants within a few blocks from the hotel. So the location was ideal for our stay and the front desk was very friendly. They offered complimentary coffee/cappuccino, etc in a room off the lobby. The room itself had a good separate bathroom with a large shower, a kitchenette with a fridge, sink, stove, microwave and dishes/dishwasher. We had no complaints about the room at all. Out of the 6 hotels we stayed at during our visit to Portugal, The Roots would be rated in the top two. I would definitely stay there again!

Staff very friendly and efficient, answered all questions. Room was perfect, don't normally like ground floor however very secure as enclosed. Kitchen facilities looked perfect we didn't use as only stayed 1 night on way to airport. Will stay here next on a return trip taking in more time around Faro. Perfect for bus to airport or train station other destinations. Wifi was good. Beds comfortable and bathroom area clean and spacious. Could not fault this room/apartment. Was wary first on arrival of area, however on venturing out felt safe and plenty of restaurants within 800metres.

Kitchen facilities looked perfect we didn't use as only stayed 1 night on way to airport. Will stay here next on a return trip taking in more time around Faro. Perfect for bus to airport or train station other destinations. Wifi was good. Beds comfortable and bathroom area clean and spacious. Could not fault this room/apartment. Was wary first on arrival of area, however on venturing out felt safe and plenty of restaurants within 800metres.

Location
Convenient for transport and sightseeing: a short walk to the train and bus stations, marina, and old town, with easy airport access. Some find the immediate area not very picturesque and note traffic noise in street-facing rooms.

Great hotel close to the train station. The hotel seems new and the staff was really nice. There is a small laundry mat right up the street which we used. Super clean room and walkable to restaurants. Our room even had a little kitchenette and outdoor patio. A good place to stop over on our travels.

The hotel is lovely but the area is a bit dubious. But it is extremely close, 250m to the train station. A little walk will get you to the marina and the ‘touristy’ side of town. Down one of the side streets are plenty of nice restaurants

Great location, less than a 10 minute drive from the airport and just a 5 minute walk to the marina and both the bus and train stations. Close to all the shops and bars in Faro. Rooms are modern and spotlessly clean with good facilities for self catering (although we didn’t try these out!). Staff were friendly and helpful. Great little courtyard where you could sit and enjoy a tea or coffee - supplied free of charge and regularly replenished. I fully intend to return to Faro and would definitely book a return stay here.

We had a great stay at this hotel. The location is a five minute walk to the train station and a ten minute drive to the airport. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable. There are many shops and restaurants just a few minutes walk from the hotel. I would stay here again.

Excellent location in Faro, central but down a side street. Very near train and bus station. A lovely, friendly hotel. We had a room with a balcony facing the pool, it was modern and clean. The pool, although very small was enough for a dip after a day of sightseeing. It was very nice area to relax. The hotel as a whole was a peaceful place to be with friendly, helpful staff.

We chose this hotel due to proximity, as we arrived by train, and wanted to be able to walk everywhere downtown. We were fortunate to stay at this modern, clean, bright property for 5 nights. We checked in with super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff. Each day we passed through the lobby multiple times as we went out to explore Faro and the surrounding beautiful district. We often stopped by the front desk for an inquiry, recommendation, or just to visit and joke for a minute. Staff went above and beyond, and soon felt like friends. The pool is clean and refreshing. The 24 hr free coffee/latte/hot chocolate etc machine was another bonus. Our kitchen was well stocked, and despite the MANY nearby and delicious restaurants, it's always nice to have the option of preparing a meal as well. I would encourage you to enjoy Roots Hotel when in Faro.

Rummet var fint och rent. Poolen var lite kall vilket nog hade funkat en varm dag. Trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Lite ofräscht dock med pyttesmå myror på golvet i badrummet. Frukost i box med all mat i små påsar okej men ganska förpackningsslösigt. Hade också hellre velat kunna välja vad jag ville äta själv.

The rooms were spacious and comfortable! The balcony was great for relaxing at night or having coffee in the morning (which the coffee was an added bonus from the hotel). I loved the pool area outside and being able to put my feet in and read. Would stay again!
