"Best hotel. Amazing breakfast."

Grand Hotel Açores Atlântico

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location and Service!!!"

Vila Gale Collection S. Miguel Hotel

"Breakfast was good for the first couple of days, but could have used some minor changes in variety."

Hotel Verde Mar & SPA

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Staff were professional and courteous. Highly recommended!"

VIP Executive Azores Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very helpful and friendly staff. Room was very clean, bed very comfortable. The only issue was the weak air conditioning. It was a very hot day and the room did not feel cool despite the air conditioner set to the lowest possible setting. Enjoyed the bed and bathroom and the location. Nice hotel."

Hotel Ponta Delgada

"I Love this Hotel only thing I miss is not having at least a small refrigerator that’s all"

Octant Ponta Delgada

10/10 Excellent

"Location is great, the staff fantastic. Thx u Ines and Diogo for making our stay fantastic"

Sao Miguel Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"The rooms were clean and front desk staff were helpful. My biggest complaint is breakfast. It didn't matter what time you got down there, there was never a clean table, replenishing food was very slow and only small amounts were brought out at a time. I think my biggest issue was that I would find hair (that was the same color) from the young girls working on some of the tops of where things like plates of cheese were. Although the young girls had their hair tied back they would be swinging their hair around. They should have hair nets on. Although, it seemed like there was quite a bit of staff around...there was a lot of chit chatting with guests and amongst each other."
