“A Beautiful Hotel”

We enjoyed a very pleasant stay at this lovely hotel. The location overlooking the harbour was delightful, convenient for the little village, and good for sightseeing in the east of Sao Miguel. The staff were all friendly, welcoming, polite and helpful. Breakfast was great, drinks in the bar reasonably priced and the snack we had in the bar was superb value for money. WiFi was excellent and the water dispenser in reception was useful. Our room was a good size and storage was satisfactory. It was kept immaculately clean during our 3 night stay, however the beds were not the most comfortable and the bathroom was definitely in need of updating. The public areas were beautiful and we loved the stunning circular foyer and curving marble staircases up to the high glass 360 look-out!! Our only criticism of this lovely architecture was the issue with noise. Without soft furnishings the tiniest of noises in one area echoed around the entire hotel onto every landing and floor which, at times, we found quite disturbing. We would definitely recommend this hotel.

“Only if you have to”

Adequate rooms with balcony facing parking lot & yacht harbor. Feels like a sanatorium, unwelcoming atmosphere. Town is not worth wile, no decent restaurant except for nice local place called Jardim

“Practical”

Clean and spacious rooms with balcony. Central location in a lovely town. Somewhat dated bathroom with clumsy bathtub. A bit spartan. Swimming pool not very exciting. Breakfast ok. Parking close by.

“Good value base to explore the east of the island”

Stayed for two nights, this hotel is located overlooking the harbour in the quiet village of Povoação, making it a good base for exploring the east of Sao Miguel Island. Although the hotel doesn’t have dedicated parking there were always plenty of free spaces available at the nearby harbour carpark. Check-in was quick and efficient and the room a good size, clean and nicely decorated with an excellent view out to sea. Comfortable bed, good Wi-Fi and aircon, okay shower. No restaurant, but the slightly quirky bar area served a selection of tasty food (pizza, pasta, burgers etc), as well as both Azorean and Portuguese beers, otherwise several local restaurants are in the village. Breakfast was included; the selection was limited but was ok. The hotel has a pool, but I didn’t get a chance to check it out during my stay.
