Beautiful palace with sympathetically added bedrooms. Spacious, luxurious rooms, again with fantastic views. Wonderful views for the pool and bar area-stunning.Do wander into the town and around the beautiful gardens. Friendly, helpful staff-booked us a taxi for early airport run, with a breakfast bag. Even went to the trouble of prepping us coffees at 5am. We felt thoroughly spoilt. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/43810EC04E0EE5527929D8CDDE88EC79FF03D09D1729865922561.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/344A1B0825702BC25E599BF862F2763E2918CF3A1729865919336.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/BFFB447E587B7CE20BB9C591B09833068E15080B1729865920168.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/C58783BC9010E9AE7250C5A34222ACDE285B40F41729865921694.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Frances Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ingeborg Jan 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Special and lovely stay. It is a special place to stay, lovely palace with modern annex for guest rooms. Great view, nice large rooms. Small improvements can be made in rooms, like updating the pillows. Overall a very lovely stay. Please keep in mind on Sunday evening the town is pretty much closed for business. So if you don’t plan on dining at the Pousada the options are scarce. ![The pool ( not heated)](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2B7AA6EDD3C289506B139F9BF8A04E6E6558652A1674032281033.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![The palace ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/B43E4F0CE5F8C9A35BF31530B8C15339D9A0013A1674032284056.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![The exterior ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1BD205AD7FB3402507CD0B200FF395C2C4592E3A1674032281825.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ingeborg Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hossam Jul 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The Palace itself is fantastic, very historic and picturesque, this includes reception, the gardens, restaurant, common areas. The rooms are good: modern, neat, nothing flashy or eccentric but clean and with plenty of natural light. Overall good experience, quite unique. Public transportation won't work well though, but for us this wasn't an issue as we had a car and we could drive to Faro for shopping or dining options (20 minutes) and approximately the same drive time to Tavira. ##### Hossam Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chaitanya Aug 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Would be nice to have some kind of shade on swimming pool so it can be used at all times during peak summer when temperatures are very high. ##### Chaitanya Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Samzie Dec 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful hotel but lacking soul The old part of the hotel is very beautiful but the new section where our room was felt like walking through a modern art museum. While it was comfortable & the service was great it felt soulless . Maybe it’s nicer in summer . ##### Samzie Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Robin Jan 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Unique hotel worth a visit. Amazing views over Faro. Excellent reception, bar and Resturant service and attention. Carolina’s welcome best we have had worldwide! Lovely clean room with large bed… however had troubles understanding the bath/shower/plug without any instructions and got parts wet that should have stayed dry and had a bath with heel holding down plug etc. Needs a small instruction sticker! ##### Robin Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### James Oct 3, 2023 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Sunny travels The hotel is a little worn, and short staff They are hiring temps from agencies to fill void . The old Palace is an amazing building. They need to put some money into it to keep it in the condition. It should be kept it. I would stay there again I don’t think you’re staying in a luxury hotel. ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathryn Jan 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Paid accommodation mix up on check out. Lovely stay with all the comforts but there was a mix up as we went to check out, i went to settle a bar bill and was presented with a full bill for the accommodation as well as the bar bill. The accommodation had previously been paid at the time of booking. ##### Kathryn Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William Mar 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The Pousada facilities and staff were wonderful. The historic part of the Pousada was a former palace with restored rooms and period furniture. The rooms and facilities were modern and well kept - sizable rooms, wonderful views of the countryside, a great pool, and balconies/patios with scenic views of the orchard and town. The restaurant was very good but small - reservations are a must. The bar was also small, but nice. All the staff was warm and friendly. Parking on the facility was particularly convenient and safe. The town of Estoi is cute and safe to walk around. The gardens and orchard of the palace were wonderful to explore. The town is small, however. Estoi has some nice little shops and some ancient ruins within walking distance. For hikers or trail runners, there are some trails that go up into the hills and back around (about 5 miles - I used Strava to find possible running trails.) Estói was a great jumping-off point for those who rent a car - close to Loulé, Faro, Olhão, Portimão, and the rest of the Algarve. I would not recommend it for travelers without transportation unless it was just for a weekend getaway. Overall, the Pousada Palácio Estói was a wonderful find - we would definitely return and recommend. ##### William Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pine Cliffs Hotel, a Luxury Collection Resort, Algarve](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Pine-Cliffs-Hotel.h4071.Hotel-Information) > > [Lagos Avenida Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Lagos-Avenida-Hotel.h19333855.Hotel-Information) > > [NAU Salema Beach Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Vila-Do-Bispo-Hotels-Salema-Beach-Village.h15175162.Hotel-Information) > > [Velamar Boutique Hotel - Adults Friendly](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Velamar-Boutique-Hotel.h2928512.Hotel-Information) > > [PortoBay Falésia](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-PortoBay-Falesia.h1787641.Hotel-Information) > > [VidaMar Resort Hotel Algarve](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-VidaMar-Resort-Hotel-Algarve.h5670748.Hotel-Information) > > [Monte Santo Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Monte-Santo-Resort.h2135874.Hotel-Information) > > [São Rafael Holidays](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Sao-Rafael-Villas.h8516728.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Lagos Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Lagos.h2543952.Hotel-Information) > > [Marina Club Suite Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Marina-Club-Suite-Hotel.h1489839.Hotel-Information) > > [PortoBay Blue Ocean](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-PortoBay-Blue-Ocean.h14861176.Hotel-Information) > > [Jupiter Algarve Hotel - Beach & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Jupiter-Algarve-Hotel.h1133428.Hotel-Information) > > [Quinta Pedra dos Bicos](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Quinta-Pedra-Dos-Bicos.h1200216.Hotel-Information) > > [The Navigator - Solaqua](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Luna-Solaqua.h4461872.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Marina Portimao Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Marina-Portimao.h976931.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Apartamento Brisa Sol](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Hotel-Apartamento-Brisa-Sol.h2335413.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Alvor Algarve Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Alvor-Algarve-Resort.h33811605.Hotel-Information) > > [Martinhal Sagres Beach Family Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Sagres-Hotels-Martinhal-Sagres-Beach-Family-Resort.h3091253.Hotel-Information) > > [Dom Pedro Lagos](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Dom-Pedro-Lagos.h1382394.Hotel-Information) > > [EPIC SANA Algarve Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-EPIC-SANA-Algarve-Hotel.h5995034.Hotel-Information) > > [Muthu Clube Praia da Oura](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Muthu-Clube-Praia-Da-Oura.h1182280.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Algarve Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-Hotel-Algarve-Casino.h6468.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Atlântico Algarve by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Kimpton-Atlantico-Algarve.h3036868.Hotel-Information) > > [W Algarve](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-W-Algarve.h73757170.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Cerro Alagoa Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Cerro-Alagoa-Hotel.h891218.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Lagos](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Tivoli-Lagos.h876691.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Petra](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Vila-Petra.h1100476.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Carvoeiro](https://www.expedia.ca/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Tivoli-Carvoeiro.h891221.Hotel-Information) > > [AP Oriental Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Portimao-Hotels-AP-Oriental-Beach.h912470.Hotel-Information) > > [Cascade Wellness Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Lagos-Hotels-Cascade-Wellness-Resort.h4018224.Hotel-Information)
