    Hotels.com Guest Rating

    The location of this hotel is great, with a fantastic view across to Pico from the rooms facing the sea. Make sure you get a sea view room. This was the... most expensive hotel that we stayed in on our tour of the islands and possibly could be considered a little overpriced, but we enjoyed the experience of staying within the old fort walls. Breakfast and dinner in the hotel were standard, not exceptional (although freshly squeezed juice and breakfast was great). Rooms may be considered a little bit old fashioned/tired and the shower was very small, but balcony made up for it for the short stay of 2 nights. by a Hotels.com guest on 06/28/12

    A very well located hotel on the harbor in Horta in an old fort with a beautiful view of Pico across the channel. While the room was clean and comfortable, we were disturbed by being able to clearly hear a guest in the adjacent room, as well as even quiet noises in the hallway through the door. The pool area was nice and well maintained. We had dinner […] in the hotel's restaurant which was very disappointing with very overcooked duck and chicken, the latter smothered in an unpleasing sauce. There was only one waiter/server and he was overextended with just 3 or 4 parties in the dining room. Breakfast was also underwhelming with very poor service. Read more

    Durch die Umwandlung eines alten Forts mit der zentralen Lage in Horta entwickelt die Anlage einen Charme, der allemal eine Empfehlung wert ist. Wer die Kälte der üblichen Hotelanlagen meiden will, ist allgemein in einer Pousade und auf Faial speziell in dieser Pousada gut aufgehoben. Sauberkeit durchschnittlich (Balkons), Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis […] im Restaurant ebenfalls. Frühstück gut, sonst draußen essen. Die Pousada ist so gut, dass man bei einem erneuten Aufenhalt in Horta wieder dort buchen würde ... Read more
