Great locationFriendly staffGood breakfast
annIEPerfect city break location
Breakfast had lovely fruit selection and buffet was fine. It was great having a steamer instead of an iron to get out creases in linen. Beds and pillows very comfortable.
SueUnited KingdomGreat place to stay for a short break

JanNLGeweldige plek met een mooi hotel om een paar dagen in te verblijven!
Het hotel is een enorm mooi hotel met een erg goede ligging met vanaf dakterras een mooi uitzicht over haven en natuurgebied!
Het zwembad op dak is een welkome verkoeling maar de staat van het kleine zwembad laat zien…

Rates include the taxes and fees we can read.
The property may take a card at check-in for incidentals.
What we’d check for you here
- How many rooms they will hold at once, for how long, and on what terms.
- That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
- Whether breakfast is in the rate or added at checkout, and what time it runs.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about Occidental Faro
What time is check-in and check-out at Occidental Faro?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 12:00 PM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Occidental Faro allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Occidental Faro?
Yes — parking is available on site at a charge the property sets. We check the rate and whether a space can be reserved against your dates.
Does Occidental Faro have a pool?
Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.
Is breakfast included at Occidental Faro?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does Occidental Faro have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Occidental Faro?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Occidental Faro have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Occidental Faro?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 2:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Occidental Faro?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
