Ten minute walk into the town of Angra do Heroismo. Room comfortable and clean. Good breakfast included. Pool and beach swimming at the hotel. Good value. Would recommend staying here.
Beautiful hotel in a privilege location. Close to the ocean WOW WOW! Rooms clean, comfortable and stylish with a contemporary decoration. The breakfast, worth it, abundant and delicious. I want to be back already! The front desk very friendly, professional and kind.
Thank you for a great stay.
Just got back after a week stay with my family and we would recommend this hotel. It was clean and had lots of parking nearby. The breakfast included was great (when we made it on time thanks to jet leg), but the bar lounge was awesome and I’ll be missing their “galao”. Indoor and outdoor pools were both great, and our suite was perfect for what we needed.
Beautiful views pool was great. Also close to natural swimming area. The patio on our room was a little rusty. Service was excellent and staff was very professional. Room was very clean
15 minute walk to town. Decent breakfast buffet, same every morning. Nice pool area and a spot to swim in the ocean too. We had a garden view room. Room was pleasant but the beds were very uncomfortable ( could be personal preference I suppose) Staff friendly and everyone spoke English
A pleasant hotel with helpful and responsive staff. Some things, like balcony furniture and aspects of the bathroom are showing signs of their age! Breakfast was good but not exceptional. Overall very satisfactory and good value.
We loved staying here! The grounds are beautiful and our lofted room was spacious. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious! Would like to see more outlets in the room. Check in time is 4 pm, which is on the later side. We had two hours to kill, so We went to the bar to hang out. Bruno took good care of us!
Great location, short(ish) walk to town, sea swimming area adjacent. Breakfast and evening buffet very good, pool great. Had to ask for room to be cleaned and items that should be there without question ie correct number of chairs & table on balcony. Good value but a little dated. Some staff excellent, others less so.
We stayed in 3 different properties during our trip, and while the property needs tic, the staff was amazing. We had a mishap with our inter island flight we were able to get in the night before, our room had the loft with 2 bedrooms and bathrooms and a great view. To top it off, bfast was included but we would miss it the day of our departure, but the arranged for us a lunch box which was a special gesture that most hotels don’t do! The property is a perfect location and has amazing potential with some renovations.

Breakfast and the ocean view were excellent. The air conditioning did not work properly. Parking in the lower garage was a nightmare.

The rooms could use some updating and the facade is rusting a badly needs painting.
Breakfast was good and the dinner buffet was average (although there seemed to be no end to the waiters refilling our wine glasses).
The swimming was very good, both the pool and the ocean. Free parking, which was good since it is a long walk to the down town.
The staff at the desk were exceptional in every way.
I must say we had an unfortunate check-in experience. We were only staying for 1 night. We arrived at 10am and were leaving around 5:30am the next morning. We had 1 free breakfast included with our stay, and because we were leaving the following day before the breakfast would even open, we asked if we could have breakfast on the day we arrived. We were told that that's "against the rules". After much arguing back and forth, they eventually let us have our breakfast. We had to insist to speak with a manager over what was clearly common sense. There was plenty of food left and the dining hall was not full of people. It was an unnecessary way to start off the stay. The hotel room itself was lovely, beautiful view, very comfortable beds, the sheets smelled amazing, clean & spacious bathroom, gorgeous pool. All of the other staff were incredibly friendly and they helped us call a taxi to the airport the next morning. They are able to store your luggage if you arrive before check-in, which we appreciated. Easy walking distance from town and a small grocery store right across the street. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone, but I don't understand why they made such a fuss about the breakfast day.
We really enjoyed our stay here and liked the layout of the room being a loft style with a bathroom on each level. The balcony was nice and had 3 chairs and a great view. The breakfast wasn't great. The coffee machine tastes like nescafe instant coffee. The breakfast options never change and while you can make a sandwich for breakfast there is no mayo. The pools looked nice and it's right by a beach.
