Beautiful hotel in Paradise

Beautiful hotel in a restored school in historic area of Ponta Delgado. Close to center and many restaurants and several spectacular gardens. Helpful and friendly staff. Beautiful private pool. Sao Miguel is a paradise -- a little bit of Hawaii and a lot of Portugal.

Beautiful Azores 2024

The experience was delightful. But Since we stayed for nine days the good breakfast became a bit repetitious. A little one new item a day would’ve made a little more exciting.

Clean and comfortable!

Clean, comfortable and big rooms. Breakfast was also good and just enough variety for us. The location could not be better. The only things I noted was that there were a few things just slightly broken (shower head) and the front desk was often empty and we had to wait for someone to show up.

I love this hotel. The rooms are pretty, fresh, comfy , and clean. Staff are always professional and helpful. I just wish there was a stronger hair dryer in the bathroom. It's my 2nd time staying here and I have enjoyed it each time.

Excellent accommodations. Very close to center of town. Less than 10 minute walk to city gate and waterfront . Bonus was the underground parking that the hotel provided. Parking on the street was very confusing. The free buffet breakfast was also great

Rip off

This hotel was over priced. I can’t believe the positive reviews it cost. It was so over priced. So dated. The carpet was dirty. The room and hallway smelled. The bathroom looked like a scene from the Brady bunch. Stuck in a time warp. There was no hot water in the shower. The staff at the front desk was helpful but that’s about it that’s positive about this hotel. Oh and the lobby was nice, which was deceiving because the rooms were old, dirty and dated.

Great start at hotel do Collegio

Very helpful and pleasant staff. Always happy to advise by request the best beach. Restaurant etc. To my surprise I thought there was a continental muffin and coffee. I was very wrong. They have scrambled eggs, lean bacon and sautéed mushrooms. You can request fried eggs or boiled. Also variety of cheeses, various breads that you heat by toaster. A coffee machine that has 15 selections of coffee, hot milk etc. Also a variety of fresh fruit and yogurt. A few cakes as well. Open from 7-10 breakfast was included. 1001 they transform all the tables for dinner service that goes from 6-10 but not just any dinner. A Japanese restaurant with sushi, udon and more. So good! They also have a cool outdoor swimming pool in the centre of the hotel. Open 8-8 I loved my stay here. I stayed in the superior room and there was lots of space and very nicely decorated.

This is a refurbished older building that was modern inside with a few touches of the past in the lobby area. It was very convenient for catching tours that met you just at the corner of the street as the streets themselves are too narrow for the vans. The breakfast buffet was terrific with many options. Beds were comfortable and rooms clean and contemporary. Helpful desk staff.
