I had an incredible time at Casa da Madalena. The warm and welcoming atmosphere made my first hostel experience unforgettable. The staff and fellow guests were so friendly, and I couldn't have asked for a better introduction to hostel life. It's no surprise that this hostel is considered the best in Portugal – it truly exceeded all my expectations!

Super clean! I really liked the style of the place. Check in was very in detail, the receptionist show us everything step by step, what to use, how to use :) etc. Another plus is how close it is to the airport - just 5 minutes to walk.

First of all the view from the taras is breathtaking! Amazing! The hostel is very cozy, quiet and from one side is a beautiful view to the river and just behind the corner there is a beach to enjoy. The best option you can get when visiting Faro. The location is outside the city but to the get to the Faro you have many ways starting with boat and bus. Very clean, friendly Staff! When I will visit Faro again will defenetly stay there. Recomend to everyone!

All hostels in Faro

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

This was the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in, the decor was simply beautiful and it had such a nice vibe. It was really well equipped and very clean. The staff were so friendly, especially Maria who was so warm, welcoming and helpful from the moment I arrived! Really good value for money, I couldn’t recommend this hostel more! I will definitely be back. Thanks again to Maria for her kindness and hospitality ❤️

Casa da Madalena is in a great location, especially for the airport to hostel bus, no. 16, as well as the boats to the islands and old town. Very friendly and helpful staff who named a few local authentic restaurants to eat very good food. Safe and relaxed atmosphere and easy to chat to other travellers. Pancakes great of course, and a nice way to meet everyone and have small talk or make plans for the day.
