Pelican Alvor

Gostei bastante do hotel e das condições do quarto. A localização é boa para o propósito. Fica perto do centro, mas algo distante da praia. Tem estacionamento gratuito para o carro.

Super Appartement mit allen Geräten in der Küche von Mikrowelle bis Pfanne! Alles Top, Pool war very nice! Personal äußerst freundlich. Die Lage war auch sehr gut. Sehr viele Parkplätze vorhanden. Für Urlauber mit Auto eine klare Empfehlung als Hotel!

第一晚入住地下層 夜晚2點超多蟻好恐怖走哂出泥有成幾百隻嚇到全晚訓唔著！第日即刻換房換3樓 好彩冇蟻！早餐不知所謂超小野食唔值。房間夠大有露台，本身間酒店整體係唔錯係住地下唔好，有免費泊車

We loved this hotel. Quieter time of year and it was so peaceful and quiet. Beautiful lobby and bar area. Best rooms we have had with the biggest balcony. Snack bar during the day very reasonable.very close to Pingo Doce supermarket for all food and drink. Walking distance to town. Pool area is lovely and the loungers were comfy. Really well equipped kitchen. Only minor area for improvement was it didn't have many plugs or dressing table/mirror in the bedroom so was hard trying to style hair. We would definitely come back.

Got to hotel only to be greeted by rude arrogant staff,supposedly that was our hotel booked through loveholidays but we were then told there were no rooms for us, and we had to stay at there sister hotel, well it was disgusting full of ants, food was unbeatable,you were in the middle of nowhere to get to places,no bus service but they were not bothered!!! This was our 10 yrs anniversary totally ruined by both the hotel and the holiday company

Had a really nice time at this hotel. Great location, nice and quiet. Staff are very friendly. Pool area was lovely with plenty of beds, although some residents got into the habit of leaving towels very early and not showing up until mid afternoon (I thought we had moved on from that !) We are now big fans of the self catering option : our studio was big with everything you could ask for. Dishwasher, microwave, kettle (obviously), plenty of crockery and cutlery. There was just one issue concerning the daily cleaning or should I say “lack of” cleaning. The TV and bedside tables didn’t look as though they had been dusted for weeks, and on a couple of occasions I had to ask reception for the housekeeper to revisit the sink and bath. We’d still stay at the Pelican again.

Total gem of a hotel, the warmest of welcomes, lovely food/ breakfast and drinks from the bar, beautiful gardens over looking the pool which was clean and welcoming. Huge rooms with excellent self catering facilities if you wanted them. Lovely quiet location with a short stroll into town. So glad we booked to stay here.

This was our second stay at The Pelican. It has a lot going for it but a couple of minor issues. The location was great for us, a 15 minute walk to Alvor, under 10 minutes to the Pingo supermarket and 5 minutes from The Jolly (a pub we made our own and knew the owner from last year). The reception and bar staff in Pelican were excellent and very friendly. The food in the bar was good and reasonably priced. The room was the same as last year and an excellent size, a TV you can swivel round to watch in bed and an excellent little kitchen with everything we needed. Our issues were with the quality of the daily cleaning, it was poor. The floor wasn't mopped and our feet ended up filthy (which then gets transferred to the bed) or in my case had white socks that were black underneath. There was a general lack of care which was a real shame as the main areas of the hotel were constantly cleaned. Also our bin under the sink wasn't emptied at least 3 times and we took to leaving the rubbish bag out to ensure it was taken. This year there was entertainment from 5 until 7 one evening on the terrace, this was well received and maybe the management should do more of this in future. The hotel WiFi was patchy at best and our phones kept being disconnected. The pool area is pretty good but could do with a bit of TLC, too often we struggled to get a lounger while others were "reserved" by people who never returned for 2 to 3 hours. A few more loungers wouldn't go amiss or a regular check to remove towels when the loungers aren't used for long periods. We will definitely return if the standard of cleaning improves as this is an excellent hotel with bags of potential and friendly staff.

We had a great stay here, every day we would comment on how amazing the staff were, special mention to Francisco at the bar who was such a gentleman and always made time for our kids, which was never reciprocated 🤣 We had a toddler and an 8 month old, the hotel seems to cater more for older couples but we had such a fantastic time. The pool area is lovely, and the 2 bed room we had on top floor was absolutely huge and very clean with a massive balcony. Lunch and drinks were inexpensive and good quality. Location is good, only about 8 mins from the water. Downsides were the snackbar at the pool was closed for duration of our stay which meant a decent trek up to the hotel any time you wanted anything which wasn't ideal with kids. There seemed to be an old wooden hot tub and decking on our balcony which was nailed shut and had been that way for some years, was a bit of an eyesore. Breakfast was very basic. The hotel wanted to charge for use of the safe in the room, I was very disappointed with this, the safes are in the room anyway and it just seemed like gouging.
