Service partly inattentive, the coffee you always had to ask for. Table cloth was many a time stained. Food was bland, always the same. Seared meat too thin so dry. No dressings salads. Ham there was only 2 times in the 2 weeks. There were no bathrobes for a fee to get. 2 directors strive to many corners to save. The air ventilation in the dining room was only turned on after the rating sheet criticized, so after the first week. It was on, every case no RIU Palace, but a 3. 5 star RIU. As palace I can't recommend it. Read more

Room big enough. Ways to counter in the winter, where you sometimes hot to carry, rat... Read more

We were already 11 time in a RIU hotel and it's only a good experiences made. Everything was great. as in many new buildings it is in the RIU Palace Algarve noisy. This is the only downside. When we 3 years ago were there, the water was in the indoor pool rather cold. That was now very pleasant warm. We had the whole day sun on the balcony and the 18-1-2012 until 12-2-2012. Read more
