The Royal Town of Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands, England

Amazing experience by all the staff at Kimpton Algarve a memorable experience all around. We will go back again.

31 May 2026
When we arrived there on 5th May, Julia the reception manger greeted us with a warm welcome back and allocated the same room we’ve had previously over the years, her amazing team as I will mention Diogo, Ester, Hermenegildo, Luiza, Joao,Lucas, Esmercaldo, Diana, Ligia, Marcella. They all were helpful to us throughout our holiday there, we appreciated it, it makes a difference. The hospitality staff at the breakfast time, it was outstanding hospitality experience from Jacky, Manoj, Ruth, Dinu, Joao, nothing was too much bother for them. Excellent service from all the staff in hospitality. The housekeeping staff Rosey the supervisor excellent service done by her team Sandeep cleaned our suite, throughly with the other employees too. I think Rosey would be an excellent front desk employee too if she would have any opportunities to do so. My birthday was amazing at breakfast time, with a cake presented by the hospitality staff a memorable experience. Our room was decorated by the house keeping staff, with a note from the GM to wish me happy birthday a lovely jester.

Enjoyable stay

30 Apr 2026
We stayed four nights in April. The welcome drink on arrival was a lovely gesture and staff all so friendly. Esther and H on reception offered a warm service that was appreciated. I enjoyed breakfast and enjoyed lovely fresh fruit and perfectly cooked omelettes, well done to the guys on the omelette station at it was very busy! The room was stunning as was the hotel throughout. Short walk to the beautiful sao Rafael beach. The only improvement I could suggest is that the menu is more varied at the pool bar. The cocktails unfortunately were not nice and we tried a few. The wine menu needs extended as it was very limited. Those things aside I would go back as the hotel itself is beautiful with excellent staff.
