  • Pousada Palacio de Estoi-Faro – Hotel Palacio de Estoi

    The Pousada of Faro, located in the famous 19th century Palace of Estoi, is a luxury hotel near Faro in Eastern Algarve

    Description

    Luxurious Pousada Palacio de Estoi

    Situated only 10 kms from Faro city centre, the Pousada of Faro (once known as the Palacio de Estoi) is famous for its neo-Baroque and neo-Rococo features, including the decoration of its plaster ceilings considered the finest in the Algarve, two tea pavilions and wonderful French-inspired gardens adorned with many statues.

    The luxurious Hotel Estoi has excellent facilities including a luxury spa and elegant outdoor and heated indoor swimming pools.

    History of the Pousada Palacio de Estoi

    Built in the 19th century by the then-Viscount of Estoi, the building is a testament to the wealth of its owner and the skill and taste of its architects and gardeners. Drawing on the best of contemporary architectural fashion and the sumptuous beauty of the gardens of Versailles, the result is a timeless wonder that still makes visitors catch their breath with awe today.

    Staying at the Pousada Palacio de Estoi

    The Hotel Palacio De Estoi has 63 bedrooms, including 15 superior rooms and 3 suites. All rooms have balconies, en-suite bathroom, heating/air conditioning, safe, minibar, bathrobes, hairdryer, telephone, Cable TV and internet access.

    The historic village of Estoi is set away from the usual hustle of many areas of the Algarve but still within close proximity to the centre of Faro and the many wonderful beaches of the area.

    This Pousada was invited to join the exclusive ‘Small Luxury Hotels of the World’ Group in January 2015 in recognition of its unique location, luxury accommodation and excellent customer service.

      Mrs Irene Fraser
      Estive na Pousada de Estoi na passagem do ano .Foi a primeira vez que estive nesta pousada mas conheço quase todas as Pousadas de Portugal. Esta, como as outras, tem um pessoal delicado e eficiente e tem uma excelente cozinha. As instalações são magnificas. Parabens

      We stayed at the Pousada de Estor just one night. We enjoyed the hotel, beautiful grounds and meals. We were greated warmly by the staff. We enjoyed an exceptional dinner on the terrace. We only encountered one problem, our room key did not work. As our room was at the far end on the hotel, it was quiet annoying to walk back and forth to the front desk.

      This year was our second holiday at the Pousada de Estoi and once again we thoroughly enjoyed our time. We love the contrast between the Palace and the modern bedroom block which works well, but we don't like the modern furniture used within the Palace. It doesn't work nor compliment the renovation. Like many Hotels breakfast looks good but the lack of variety does get boring after a few days. We hope the Pousada continues to get the investment it deserves and the gardens can be finished as the setting is beautiful. We would recommend the Pousada de Estoi but probably best for a few days rather than 2 weeks.
