Fairly decent property but, out of the way if you want to visit the City of Faro. The rooms are in good condition and are comfortable. The staff is courteous and very helpful.

The food at the hotel bar was great. While the hotel is a little outside the city center, there is a bus stop 3 minutes from the hotel and you can get downtown in 20-30 minutes for under €3

Only stayed one night. Staff was great. Room was nice, but it was hard to get the air conditioner to totally cool the room, as it only went down to a certain temperature, then would turn off. We picked this option because we had a very early flight out of Faro and it's very close to the airport. Over all good experience and would stay there again.

Stay here only if you need proximity to airport
An old, outdated “motel” feeling place. Dark, dreary and out dated. The “gym” has a couple of ancient pieces of equipment that appear to have been purchased at a garage sale in the 80’s and likely it was done just to say they have a gym. It is unusable and dangerous to work out on. They should close it or significantly upgrade it. The hotel is about a 10 min drive from old town. Despite reserving at Hotel Monaco because it was right next to the airport, it was still a 8-10 mins drive to the airport via small roads. Probably only another 5 mins if you stay in or near Old Town Faro. Their free airport shuttle starts at 8 am so I had to get a Bolt to make my early flight. It was safe, quiet and clean so it had that going for it.
The “stairmaster”
Wobbly treadmill
The one piece of gym equipment- the mat to adjust weights comes ALL the way out and, once in, comes out too much on the other side and gets caught in the chain (see pic below)
Janky and, frankly dangerous, gym equipment

Find somewhere else.
Very clean. That's the only good thing I have to say. Incredibly noisy area, cars racing about for a great deal of the night - then at 3:30 the bin men started working right outside. Lacklustre staff, awful breakfast - I think chef must have prepared it the night before. Sad cold cuts and scrambled egg that had set into one solid lump which were the entirety of the 'hot buffet'! We checked out exhausted and hungry. Never again.

My daughter and I had a very early flight out of Faro and wanted a nice, safe hotel close to the airport. Hotel Monaco had a very friendly staff, clean rooms, and was less than 5 minutes from the Faro airport. I felt it was an excellent choice and would recommend to others looking for something similar.
