Customer Reviews for Algarve Casino Hotel
Our Customer stayed here in August 2008
My wife and I stayed at the Algarve hotel casino and were delighted with all aspects of the hotel. We arrived at 10am and the reception staff went out of their way to check us in early.
All the staff were great, helpful & friendly. The facilities were great too, fresh beach towels every day!
Beach is literally a stroll out the back door directly on to the beach. I would recommend anyone stay at this great value 5*.
