"Der Check In war gut, Gastgeberin und ihr Mann sind Herzensmenschen. DIe Lage ist zentral in Praia Vitoria. Im November ist das Haus kühl, wir haben gefroren. Die Gastgeberin stellte uns kleine Heizgeräte zur Verfügung, diese schafften es jedoch nicht warm zu machen. Wäsche waschen ist problematisch weil die Tür der Waschmaschine jahrelang geschlossen ist und dadurch „stockig riecht“, wir rochen dann wie nasse Hunde. Wenn es regnet sind die Fensterbereiche und Türbereiche (zur Wetterseite) nass...

A reception area with a modern design, featuring a dark wall with a geometric sign, two grey chairs, a wooden reception desk, and a potted plant.

The Shipyard Angra

Angra do Heroismo

10/10 Excellent

Absolutely excellent hotel. Modern, very attentive and pleasant staff, convenient location, free underground parking, even curtains operating on buttons. Very good breakfast but no hot meal options. We have tried the restaurant and found it good but more expensive than it is worth. Restaurants in downtown are better value, but if you are tired at the end of a busy day then absolutely go and dine right on the property.

Franco da Serra Country House

Angra do Heroismo

10/10 Excellent

A beautiful family-owned country retreat surrounded by nature. The rooms are spotless, thoughtfully designed, and there is plenty of easy parking. It's only about a 15-minute drive to Angra, giving you easy access to town while still enjoying the peace and tranquility of the countryside. Take a walk through the surrounding area and you'll be greeted by the fragrance of beautiful flowers and the sight of cows peacefully grazing in the nearby pastures—it feels wonderfully authentic and relaxing....
