I love this place because it’s right in the center. Very convenient. The small balcony has a view of the promenade. The room was nice and comfortable. The breakfast is delivered in a cute basket every morning. The staff were great and easy to communicate via WhatsApp. I would stay here again next time

Very clean. Air conditioned. Great location. Parking can be a bit tricky. They suggested several free lots nearby. A great Portuguese restaurant next door as well as a fabulous Irish pub. Rooms are a bit small and windows face a sometimes noisy and busy street. Very good shower in a small bathroom. All in all served us very well. it's more of a rooming house than a hotel.

We stayed in the apartment with kitchen. Towels, cutlery and one pillow cover were not clean. Basically all furniture and appliances were very worn. The fridge was even rusting from the outside. We could not use the stove because the children protection was activated which we could not manage to deactivate. But we would not have used it anyway. The only window did not stay open by itself and was very hard to open and close in general. The view from the window into the courtyard/back of the house was ugly with pigeons and seagulls making noise throughout the night. Generally, the house also has very thin walls. If someone walks on the floor or is in the kitchen, you will hear it. The overall location in the city is very good with parking garage, restaurants and supermarket nearby. But definitely not worth the 160€/night we paid.

Perfect little hotel

Wonderful hotel, perfectly located. Surrounded by restaurants and shops and things to do. They will call taxis or arrange things you need. The morning basket of snacks and breakfast was great.

Updated hotel that looks beautiful and has big rooms. It’s kind of like a huge dorm, with shared kitchen and everyone must be on their best behavior because there is not anyone on-site. Unfortunately our housemates came in late and made a lot of noise for a long time. The bedroom was great except the bed was awful!! It creaked and squeaked with every turn and was uncomfortable, like sleeping on a spring. Other rooms may be different, I don’t know. It’s in the heart of town which is nice and it was cheap.

Overall the experience at Casa Ateneu was a positive one The only complaint I have is the lack of communication with staff The code for the entrance was changed in the middle of our stay and we were not told about it until an hour after we had to reach out to the staff An "included" breakfast never arrived, and when we asked about it the message was never responded to These aside, good location, well kept and positive experience.

Klasse Lage, guter Preis

In einem Altbau. 4 m hohe Räume. Kühlschrank und Küche gemeinschaftlich. War ok. Es gibt auch Schlafsäle in diesem Hotel. Kommunikation mit Hugo per Whatsapp lief gut. Ich war sehr zufrieden, nur die Dusche braucht 5 Minuten bis warmes Wasser kommt

We were exhausted after all day and night travel. Arrived early am (7 am)!there was nobody to talk to to allow for earlier checkin, no secure area to store luggage when we go explore city. Essentially guarded luggage by seating in horrible room with no tv, no door. Horrible experience for 7’hours until finally got key after 2 pm. Will not recommend this place to anyone.

Todo excelente, muy buena ubicación, todo el personal muy amable y servicial, me ayudaron a conseguir taxis, cualquier cosa les escribía y me contestaban casi inmediatamente. La habitación muy amplia y cómoda, igual que el baño privado. Estuve en el Estudio 11, tenía cocina equipada, me salió muy bien porque compré lo que me gusta para desayunar y para la cena había una tienda cerca que vendía comida preparada, el estudio está en la parte trasera, muy tranquilo, la habitación principal tiene un buen clima, sin duda volvería a hospedarme en Casa Ateneu. Muchas gracias!

La literie est horrible. Un matelas Ikea premier prix a ressort pas ensachés. Et le lit qui grince. La chambre est extrêmement mal insonorisées et on entend la télé voisine. Rue bruyante. Petit déjeuner continental qui est certes important mais avec des produits de faible qualité. Pas d'accueil tout se fait a distance. Femme de ménage très agréable. Vous pouvez trouver mieux pour moins cher (140€ la nuit ici)

Fijne accomodatie. Prima kamer, de matrassen vonden wij wat gedateerd en vrij hard. Vanuit hier kun je makkelijk de mooie plekken op het eiland bezoeken. Wij zouden aanraden een auto te huren. Auto parkeren kan in de garage vlak bij, wel betaald. Voor een gratis parkeerplek moet je echt geluk hebben. Je loopt zo het centrum in, winkels en restaurants op loopafstand.

We really loved staying at this property. The building was beautiful. We loved the high ceilings and the gold painted trim everywhere. Our room was lovely and we loved the shared kitchen and living room spaces that were available. We could step right out our door and be near lots of shops and lots of great restaurants. We parked about a 5 minute walk from our place and only used it when driving to neighboring sights. We will definitely consider staying here again when we return.

The hotel was a great location giving easy access to shops and restaurants. Great to have access to a kitchen and living room. Rooms had efficient air conditioning and staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms overlooking the road were a little noisy and both rooms that we stayed in had a step down from the bathroom into the bedroom which we weren’t keen on.
