The view 10/10. The staff was always very nice and helpful with everything I asked. The only thing is the gym is a bit small but the rest of the hotel is very good

This hotel is absolutely terrible and I highly recommend against staying here. The property is not maintained, the rooms look like trashy motel rooms. The food options for breakfast are low quality and limited, the service is beyond terrible. We lost money on our booking because we stayed one night and had to leave. It was gross, save your money. There are tons of better options.

Ulises

Hotel El Faro did not meet our expectations for a property that presents itself as a 4-star international hotel. In our experience, it is closer to a 3-star hotel, and the price does not match the quality of the facilities or the services provided.

Our first room had significant maintenance issues, so we requested a change. The second room was in better condition; however, it is clear that the hotel as a whole requires a substantial renovation plan. The staff did their best to assist us and were always willing to help, but there were too many structural and operational issues that were beyond their control.

We tried the massage services and, unfortunately, the quality and techniques used were not in line with those of professional massage therapists, nor with what one would expect from a hotel that promotes itself as a spa. Breakfast is quite limited and lacks fresh products, which was also disappointing.

On the positive side, the view from the hotel is outstanding and definitely the highlight of the stay. The quality of the linens is also very good. With improvements in infrastructure and overall services, the hotel could better reflect the privileged location in which it is set.

Beautiful place

The hotel was beautiful, located right on the lake. Our room was really nice, but the bathroom ceiling was old and crumbling, and the blinds were broken. There was also smell of sewage during the night. We mentioned this to the receptionist and she changed our rooms by the third night and offered us a free dinner at the restaurant as a compensation. The second room was lovely. The pool could use a clean up. But overall the experience was lovely and we got engaged there so we have a special place for this hotel in our memory now:)

Great location & facilities,dinner disappointing.

Large, comfortable room, great view and quiet location. Dinner expensive, small portions and not great experience. My husband had tortellini which was lukewarm (reheated on request). I had Caesar salad, which was small, contained good amount of chicken, chunky croutons, minimal lettuce, regular cheese slices (not Parmesan) but nothing else.

Amazing views and comfy rooms

The hotel is perfectly situated for amazing lake views. The staff is friendly, breakfast was very tasty, and the rooms are comfy and cozy. The reason it's not a 5-star review is (1) they failed to service our room one of the three days we were there and (2) there were some condition issues of the hotel grounds - the hot tub was questionable at best and the dock on the lake was dangerously weathered. Despite that, I would recommend.

Fantastic location overlooking the lake and mountains, llovely interior and room, good breakfast, staff excellent. Awkward ( but very picturesque) access along steep very winding drive proved less problematic than we first thought, bearing in mind that the hotel had no restaurant, and was 3 km from the town. Minor fault - the fan in the jacuzzi didn’t work.

Amazing lake and mountain views, quiet

Beautiful properly next to the lake with large windows and simply amazing views to the lake and the mountains in the background. Large rooms. A quick drive to the Villa La Angostura town, even walkable as there's a pedestrian path next to the road. Simple but nice breakfast with amazing views.

Great site and service

Service was excellent. Especially Fernanda at the front desk, whose persistence paid off in tracking down my phone (lost in Vila Angoustura). Facilities are lovely, best of all is the quiet and beautiful lakeside location. Room was very nice, with a great view. Breakfast was great. Only slight flaw - cleanliness and attention to detail was sometimes a little lacking. The otherwise beautiful jacuzzi in our room was a bit dirty. And the pool looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a while. Still overall I’d recommend it.

Spectacular Views

Our stay at the Don El Faro Boutique Hotel & Spa was wonderful. The hotel is on the lake and has the most incredible views over the water to the mountains. Breathtaking. The hotel is small and quiet - staff are friendly and welcoming. The breakfast is disappointing and unimaginative - there are few options and the hotel didn't cater for our specific requirement, we had to adjust to their options (not quite boutique). Still, none of this takes away from a wonderful experience in a beautiful location.

Hotel muito sujo, descuidado, equipamentos que não funcionam, nos colocaram num quarto que não era o reservado, com 20 degraus para descer, um verdadeiro calabouço. Pagamos por um apartamento de luxo e nos deram um lixo. Depois de reclamar muito soube que nosso quarto foi dado para outro. No dia seguinte nos deram o quarto certo. É uma pena ver um local tão mal gerenciado , negligente, sujo, sem nenhuma conservação. A recepcionista Cynthia e a Valéria se desdobram para atender bem e foram elas que salvaram nossa estadia. Café da manhã medíocre, poucos itens e pequenas quantidades que acabavam o tempo todo, economia até nisso...Não voltarei e não recomendo ...
