The staff in general was nice, but a few were a little annoyed by questions. You need a car I will not walk outside the property since it is a main road. They offer a shuttle to the Alvor beach ( it is a public beach) you can inquire if they offer other stops, I am sure Uber works fine too. If dinning in the property make sure to reserve in advance. Our room on the 4th floor was far from the elevator, easier to take the stairs, however our view was breathtaking looking at the golf course, pool, and far town (back of the property) it had a semi second level with a desk and balcony very nice room layout for two. The buffet breakfast was also very nice with a good selection. It was definitely a beautiful stay but I didn’t expect it to be so uptight. Close to Silves and Lagos. It is conveniently located to explore other areas. ##### Alexandra Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sabrina 11 Aug 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hôtel très agréable Très bel hôtel, le personnel est très gentil et accueillant. La piscine est grande, avec serviette fournie et matelas de transat pour plus de confort! P’tit Dej avec un large choix et très très bon. La propreté … nickel ! Le seul point négatif est qu’il n’y ait aucune animation le soir donc obligé de sortir si on veut se divertir un peu, ce qui est bien dommage car il faut une voiture, l’hôtel est excentré !

Every member of the team were so friendly and welcoming. The room was spotlessly clean, the grounds and facilities at the pool were wonderful. The food in the Henry Cotton restaurant was excellent. We played tennis and the golf course was amazing and excellent value. We would definitely recommend and we are already planning to return to the Penina next year. Thank you Penina for a wonderful stay. ##### Barry Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Nathalie 24 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nous n'avons pas aimé le restaurant.

Le service du restaurant était extrêmement long. ##### Nathalie Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Elizabeth 20 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Short golfing break We had 3 nights at Penina after a week in Vilamoura. We arrived at 1.30pm and were able to check in and use the facilities straightaway. We had a mountain facing room which was fine for a short stay. The buffet restaurant was disappointing - the Mexican food was very bland. The Italian restaurant wasn’t much better, the scallops hadn’t been seared, neither had the skin on the sea bass. The Grill restaurant was much better, with excellent service and significantly better food. The food at the Henry Cotton restaurant was good but overpriced for what was provided. Disappointingly the beach club was not open - on the website says open April to October, but clearly this is variable! The golf service is very efficient. We only played the resort course, but had no problems playing when we wanted. Although check out is by midday, we were able to play golf and use the facilities in the locker room afterwards, so we didn’t leave until 4.30 pm. Generally a comfortable hotel although a little dated. It was quite windy whilst we were there, so an indoor pool would be nice. ##### Elizabeth Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Douglas 26 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Penina Hotel is lovely and the staff are fabulous.

Je recommande fortement. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0B1C65F10F810640E4AF2ADB44EB676C0202DADA1692027235834.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/FC34047A458A357EEC6214CE7F485A3EEF58F9781692027234604.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/21F535019C1500B30E10F3899425E5EF72CC69FD1692027236538.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/41F81314225E938316A59C19B4991DA3385AA8B61692027238766.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sébastien Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### duarte 8 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Qualidade de luxo a preços muito aceitáveis Hotel antigo mas bem conservado. Nestes dias de muito calor as enormes áreas sociais muito bem refrigeradas. Recepção muito simpática , atenta, eficiente e disponível. Pequeno almoço ou café da manhã simplesmente o melhor que experimentámos nesta categoria de hotéis de luxo. Tem tudo em quantidade e qualidade irresistível. Piscina enorme das maiores do Algarve (60m x 20m) com a água a uns simpáticos 27º. Jardins muito bem tratados e restaurantes do empreendimento com qualidade de serviço e também qualidade. Para voltar sempre ##### duarte Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Javier Fernández 26 Jul 2023 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities En general desde que llegamos al hotel todo ha ido genial. La única queja la entrada, en mi opinión está un poco mal hecha, hay que ir hasta la rotonda siguiente para dar la vuelta y poder entrar, y a la salida la carretera está muy desgastada. Todo lo demás ha ido bien, buen servicio, buenas instalaciones… ##### Javier Fernández Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue 22 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great stay at Penins An amazing and tranquil place to stay. Staff were lovely and always helpful, with a special mention to Christie who always went above and beyond. Breakfast was excellent rooms were clean with comfortable beds and nespresso machine. Always loungers available with comfortable cushions. ##### Sue Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### martin 20 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities I’ve been to Penina for 20 plus years and love the place but it needs some serious money spent on the hotel and golf course. Each year it deteriorates a bit more this includes the staffs as well as the hotel and golf course. I will return but not play golf there until they get the course in better shape ##### martin Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### laurine 1 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service Très bon hôtel 5 étoiles. Un restaurant italien délicieux. Une piscine agréable. Cependant cela fut décevant car seulement quelques membres du personnel ont été sympathique et agréable avec nous... ##### laurine Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colin 27 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Love staying at this hotel, full of old world charm friendly and helpful staff all in beautiful setting and all at a reasonable price. ##### Colin Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rainer 15 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a wonderful stay at the majestic Hotel Penina over Christmas, New Year's Eve and the first days of the new year 2023. We were very satisfied and would especially like to highlight the excellent breakfast and the friendly courtesy of the staff. No wish remained unfulfilled. The coastal landscape of the Algarve and the beaches between Armação de Pêra, Portimao, Alvor and Lagos are picturesquely beautiful. ##### Rainer ### 8/10 Good #### Dawid 6 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good stay ##### Dawid ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [RR Club Amarilis](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Club-Amarilis.h2571667.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Algarve Casino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Hotel-Algarve-Casino.h6468.Hotel-Information) > > [Lovely 2 Bedroom Apartment in Alvor with Shared Pool close to Town and Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Lovely-2-Bedroom-Apartment-In-Alvor-With-Shared-Pool-Close-To-Town-And-Beach.h32627810.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Alvor Beach Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Pestana-Dom-Joao-Villas-Beach-Golf-Resort.h19236923.Hotel-Information) > > [Jupiter Algarve Hotel - Beach & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Jupiter-Algarve-Hotel.h1133428.Hotel-Information) > > [Longevity Health and Wellness Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Longevity-Health-Wellness-Hotel.h34091074.Hotel-Information) > > [Flor da Rocha](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Flor-Da-Rocha.h7439442.Hotel-Information) > > [RR Alvor Baía Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Alvor-Baia-Resort-Hotel.h4899066.Hotel-Information) > > [Agua Hotels Alvor Jardim](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Agua-Hotels-Alvor-Jardim.h24313750.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Alvor Algarve Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Alvor-Algarve-Resort.h33811605.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Marina Portimao Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Marina-Portimao.h976931.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Luar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Hotel-Luar.h8036099.Hotel-Information) > > [Clube Vilarosa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Clube-Vilarosa.h2458730.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Alvor Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Pestana-Alvor-Park.h1273467.Hotel-Information) > > [TURIM Algarve Mor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Turim-Algarve-Mor-Hotel.h12424932.Hotel-Information) > > [Alto Club, Alvor.
