Faro Airport is not all that large, and there are no hotels near the terminal building. Fortunately, however, the city of Faro is only a short drive from the airport and easily reachable by hire car or public transport.
Faro is the capital of the Algarve region and a beautiful coastal city that is well worth a visit in its own right. It has a fascinating cultural history and a well-preserved old town with mediaeval cobbled streets and a wealth of visitor attractions, as well as shopping opportunities, cafés, restaurants and a vibrant nightlife.
Faro has a wide choice of accommodation across all price ranges.
