    Comfortable and Convenient Stay in Ponta Delgada
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Budget Double Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The over-sized pillows were of no functional use and just ended up on the floor, and the garbage in the washroom was flimsy and just fell over when you tried to use it/open it with the foot pedal, became annoying to always stand it back up or have to dispose of garbage elsewhere in the room.

    The hotel is well located by the waterfront in Ponta Delgada and easy walking distance to all city attractions. The staff were responsive before and during my stay. My room was adequate for my needs, but I would consider a larger room next visit. The breakfast was limited with both egg options being overcooked, but there are a la carte options that I only noticed the second day to make a fresh omelette, toastie or yogurt, fruit and granola. The coffee was great!!! Overall I enjoyed my stay.

    There wasn't anything we didn't like.

    Location by the marina is excellent. Reception staff very helpful in terms of giving advice, booking taxis, making restaurant reservations. Maid service everyday, and robes provided. Breakfast was fabulous, great choice and different options everyday. We stayed for one week and had different options everyday.

    We stayed for three nights and the price of the room was different for each night. No parking facilities (but you can found one in a garage nearby for an additional cost).

    We loved the connencted familiy rooms, great breakfast. The staff was nice and checked several times if everything was OK.

    Clean and comfortable hotel across from the port. Friendly staff. Great breakfast.

    • Junior Suite with Balcony and Sea View
    • Stayed 8 nights

    Our room could use more plugs, especially next to the night tables. More places to hang things would be good. Towels, robes, wet clothes. It can be a bit noisy. You can hear people in the next room, or even on the street outside.

    Super friendly staff. Very clean. Room and buffet and common areas. Great breakfast. We had a "Junior Suite with Balcony and Sea View." The balcony looked out over the water. It had a huge bathroom with a giant tub. Short walk to the Portas da Cidade (city gates) of downtown. Water, Nespresso, and tea in the room, and they stock it every day. Pingo Doce convenience store next door. They have some parking passes for the underground garage. If you have a car, ask when you check in to see if one is available. It's €5/day, but it's much more convenient than dealing with street parking or paying for a different lot.

    Could improve the breakfast choices a little more. The scrambled eggs were drowning in water and weren’t tasty nor warm. But that’s it!

    Everything! Loved the room, loved the staff- Elsa and Carla were great ! Polite, helpful, accommodating . Breakfast was pretty good. Loved it.
