In this post we are going to objectively review which are the best hotels to stay in Albufeira. But before starting with the comparison, we are going to give a brief review about Albufeira.
Albufeira is one of the main tourist cities of the Portuguese Algarvian coast, in it, in summer, a large part of the beach and sun tourism of the Algarve is concentrated. It has good tourist infrastructures, magnificent beaches, good internal and external connections, good weather, good food… that is why tourists of many nationalities (many of them British, Spanish, Italian…) gather in this city giving a special color to its streets in summer.
If you are interested in learning more about Albufeira, the editorial staff of Tualgarve.com has created a guide to learn more about this city, you can read it from here.
A large part of the success of Albufeira has a lot to do with the investment in the hotel infrastructure that it did make in the early 1990s and which has continued to grow to this day to provide tourists with good hotel facilities at very good prices.

As in all cities, the hotel offer has a fairly wide range in terms of price offer, which obviously has a lot to do with the category of the hotel, the location, amenities, etc. But it is true that in Albufeira you can find cheap hotels in high season.
You have to know how to look for those bargains and the constant that is repeated to find them is time, that is, make the reservation a few months before the stay.
