Studio 17 Atlantichotels

“Great for the price”

Lovely hotel, room was clean and had all amenities we needed. Large balcony as well. The reception is only open 9-5 which is fine for us but if you check in outside of these hours it looks complicated. There was a €200 security deposit on arrival. They pay this back when you leave.

Lovely hotel, room was clean and had all amenities we needed. Large balcony as well. The reception is only open 9-5 which is fine for us but if you check in outside of these hours it looks complicated. There was a €200 security deposit on arrival. They pay this back when you leave. It's important that if you leave outside of reception hours, you go to reception the day before to collect your refund. The bed was not good, the only thing I could fault really. It was rock solid and just like sleeping on the floor. Overall it was a nice hotel, I would stay again. The cleaner didn't come while we were there but that could have been because we spent mornings in the room. They advertised once a week cleaning which I'm sure is true. We ended up having to buy toilet paper as when we ran out, reception was closed. Everything nearby is a 10-15 min walk or a £3.15 taxi. Great place

“You get what you pay for”

Despite the cons this was really good value for what we paid. If you are looking for a cheap holiday in the sun then I’d still recommend this place. I had booked a studio but received an apartment. Pros -Apartment and balcony good size -Everything you need including kitchen equipment, a coffee pod machine and working TV. -5 mins walk from Lidl and Aldi, a nice gym and great cafe called Somar -Pool and reception/communal areas very clean. -Safe area. Lots of parking. -Receptionist friendly Cons -Nothing around the local area bar/restaurant wise. The local cafe does serve beer. -Apartment not very clean at all. -Bed was the most uncomfortable I’ve ever slept in. Pillows awful too and filthy. -Most Balconies that look over the car park don’t get the sun (not an issue for me but may be for some). -Construction ongoing in surrounding buildings & a bit noisy. We checked in around 11pm when Reception was closed and was very easy, just ring the phone number, someone answered immediately & we were in within a couple of mins. We didn’t have to pay any deposit. Location is halfway between Portimao and Praia de Rocha.
