The Alif hotel is a good, clean hotel. Breakfast was the usual continental breakfast, with Cheese, ham, Croissants, fruit (although tinned and not fresh) cereals, pastries and yoghurts. The breakfast was buffet style and set you up fine. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with more than ample storage. (note there are no tea/coffee making facilities in the rooms). The... more

The first night we arrived at Hotel Alif the air conditioning in our room was not working. A staff member came, did something to it, and said it was fixed when it obviously wasn't. So we complained again. They offered us another room which, fortunately, we insisted on seeing before moving as it was inadequate compared to the room we... more

It is a nice hotel, rooms are tastefully decorated, clean and spaceous. Breakfast is plentiful, mind you a bit on the sugary side, lots of cakes and biscuits and they tend to put out the nicer bits first thing in the morning. As a consequence we ended up getting up early in the morning so we had a better choise... more

My wife and I stayed at Alif on August 3-9, 2008 and were very happy with the hotel. Our room was on the small side but that's rather common for European hotels. Otherwise it was clean and everything worked fine, including the shower, AC and TV (lots of English-speaking channels). Breakfast was OK as well. Alif is very conveniently located:... more

I should be writing a review about the standard room that we booked for the last night of our vacation in Portugal, but upon arriving sweaty, hot, and tired after a day of sightseeing, we received the quite unexpected (and appreciated) gift of an upgrade to a luxurious 2-bedroom suite by the fabulous front desk clerk. Rooms were perfect, and... more
