We are returning customers. The service and food (breakfast and dinner) is truly exceptional. So fresh and beautifully prepared every day. Affordable drink options in bars and during dinner. Standard rooms have seen better days but everything works, beds and bedding are super comfy, water pressure is above expectation. Comfort rooms are more updated and with better views. Pool area is nice and warm even during early spring when we visit. Ocean 300 metres from the hotel. We will keep coming back to Monte Gordo and Baia Beach.

Perfect location. Plenty of local restaurants, bars and shops right on your doorstep. Staff friendly

We stayed for a week. The rooms are smallish and lack things like coffee maker, microwave, fridge. At our request they very nicely supplied a small fridge.
The hotel is dated for sure but in good condition overall. The common areas show a bit of wear but I’ve seldom been a hotel that doesn’t, even nearly new ones.
The staff were all wonderful to help us, especially Anna at the reception desk. She’s incredible.
The breakfast was certainly better than a lot of hotels would offer with cold cereals, meats, cheeses, breads, fruits, pastry, hot eggs, meats, etc.
Four stars only because of lack of room amenities. We like to self-cater so require more appliances.

The service in this hotel is very good! The staff made us even more Oreo cakes because we liked them so much. I very much recommend. We will come back every year.

I'll start with the positives about this hotel: Service was absolutely fantastic. Everybody from the receptionists, waiters, the bar keepers, the housekeeping ladies, really everyone was polite, helpful, friendly and honestly happy to have us as their guests.
Breakfast was excellent. The trays were always stocked, quite a few options of bread, fruit, warm dishes and pastries. Also many different types of milk including vegan options. The breakfast room was tidy and each table was immediately cleaned and set up ready for the next guest.
Location: although not exactly at the beach, it is just a 200 m stroll and we could see the ocean from our balcony. Laundry, pharmacy, grocery stores, bakeries and restaurants are in walking distance.
Rooms: The rooms are a bit dated, however, the beds were fantastic. Can't remember the last hotel I slept this good waking up without back pain. Extra points for cleanliness and more extra points for the housekeeping ladies, who were more than willing to adjust their schedule for room service to meet my husbands workation needs.
Pool: Is ok, but this area could benefit from a little TLC.
Wi-Fi Service: This is probably an issue in most hotels: it's not able to cope with many guests connecting at the same time. I'm sure guests working while in Monte Gordo would pay extra for fast speed internet.
All in all a very good 3 Star hotel with some room for improvement. We will definitely come back for our next running training camp.
