Central location, good price, lovely breakfast, great staff.

No immediate parking. Unloading the car meant blocking the single track road for the duration. Difficult to find when driving past. Car parks are a good walk away and generally full on arrival.

Solidly built hotel in the centre of town and adjacent to the castle. Very quiet even when the hotel was booked. Family run hotel where all staff worked tirelessly to look after the guests. Many languages spoken by the staff. Very clean and tidy. Breakfasts were amazing and so much better than a ‘standard’ continental breakfast. Dishes on offer were changed daily but included baked Brie with Peach or quiche or… Home made jams and even real quince marmalade! Staff assisted in taking bags to the room as there’s no lift but there is a stairlift, to both floors, for anyone who needs it. Maintenance issues, once reported, we’re resolved in a short time.

The breakfast could have more variety, for example eggs.

The door entry for after hours could be improved. It didn't work for us at first try. For some guests, an elevator, which I didn't see, would be helpful.

The room was large and very functional which is unusual for Portuguese hotels, not those over designed with usability challenges. The staff was very friendly. The breakfast was great and always being replenished with fresher items like scrambled eggs. The bed was very comfortable. I even asked the the front desk what kind of mattresses they used which was some good Spanish brand. I would stay there again. In fact, I tried but there was no availability for the dates I needed.

Shower was not working properly ( mixture of cold and warm water).

Great location, clean and excellent breakfast.

Nothing to add. It was perfect.

We had an excellent stay at A Muralha. It was better than anything we could have imagined. The size of the room, the bed and the view was fantastic! Everything was spotless and perfect. The option of relaxing upstairs on the rooftop was also a bonus. Excellent location, facilities and staff! To top it off, the breakfast provided each morning was incredibly delicious with fresh produce and dishes which were different everyday. It was our highlight of the day.

Breakfast and location both excellent

The breakfast buffet was really good, a different choice each day. Loved the goats cheese tapas and the yoghurt pots as well as fruit available each day.

Nothing.

Staff was fantastic! Super helpful with any issues we had. Suggested wonderful restaurants for dinner and even made a last minute reservation for us at one of them. Breakfast was delicious and just the perfect meal to have before a fun day in Tavira. Our room was clean and quiet, the beds were very comfortable and the black out curtains worked great.

The breakfast is superb!

We loved the property

The staff, Andrea and her staff couldn’t help us enough and we had a 1 year old baby with us so the help was really appreciated. All staff were lovely, location amazing as well

The building is a bit old, and for me the mattress was a bit hard

The staff were great, and the breakfast was my favorite!

The parking situation is a bit difficult and I move my car twice over three days. You can use a loaging zone to drop off luggage. Then move your car several blocks to the free parking

The location is at the heart of the city with easy access to the beach ferry and the wonderful beach. My wife and I attended Mass at a church very close to the hotel. It’s a great family destination and the ferry ride is nice with many variety of shore birds. Many young families at night enjoying the music and dancing.

The bathroom. It was large but it had a dangerous step in the middle of the bathroom that you had to go up to get to the toilet and the bathtub level. This was a tripping hazard, especially at night. Even once you were aware of where the step was, upon exiting the bathroom, the step down occurred in such an awkward spot that you could easily fall down from taking a misstep.

The breakfast was really good. The room was large and clean. The staff was pleasant and helpful.

The Breakfast was fanfastic, with a wide variety of types of food - cereal, savoury , sweet, breads, fruits etc etc, different each morning. The room staff were great and the reception staff were wonderfully helpful and pleasant. Bed linen top quality Bathroom excellent. Don,t tell to many people

The room lock didn't work, but it didn't really disturb us.

The location is just perfect, in the very heart of the city. Our room windows went out to the street, and I was worried it would be noisy in the morning, but not! It was very enjoyable, nice bed, comfy cushions. Despite the absence of the AC, the room was perfectly cool (I am very particular about the temperature). Will absolutely come back.

Nice property in good location. Good value for money

Super friendly staff and great breakfast. Location was perfect!

There is no fridge in the room so we couldn't keep our drinks cold, a communal fridge would be nice in the breakfast room maybe

Great location right in the centre of town and a comfortable room, really nice healthy breakfast with fresh juice and home made food. All the staff were friendly and helpful -special thanks to the girl helping me to print my boarding pass :) Also it was really nice to be able to make a cup of tea when we wanted

No lift so be prepared if you have heavy bags. We had no problem. Would stay again.

This is an older hotel in the heart of the old town. Clean, quiet, comfy beds, with excellent staff. Breakfasts are a treat each day. Recommend. We would stay again for sure. Free, safe, parking area 10 min walk from hotel. We never needed the car during our stay.

I wouldn't recommend sleeping on the street facing side as the venue across the road had live music. Having said that, it does finish early.

Good location in town, building was newly done up and immaculate. Breakfast was very very good.

soap, hairdryer and a more sturdy toilet lid would have made it perfect

Location was great, rooms were simple but clean, quiet and good ac. Staff very friendly and helpful

I highly recommend A Muralha. I've had a wonderful stay. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly and the breakfast is excellent!

Stayed in May 2023

Not a complaint: Would have liked a kettle in the room maybe (but there was one in the breakfast area), rudimentary TV (we’re not in Tavira to watch TV though!)

Very friendly and helpful staff who had good recommendations, great location, interesting building.

Breakfast was mediocre. Apart from the excellent coffee, it did not match the overall standards. Juice was awful.

Very comfortable bed, lovely staff. Beautiful place.
