Vacations Close To Gruta do Carvao

A beautiful and welcoming place to stay in Ponta Delgada for our honeymoon! The staff were absolutely the best - so kind and helpful. The morning breakfasts they prepared were delicious and included local fresh food! We couldn’t recommend Hostel Matriz 55 more !

I would not recommend this hotel. The biggest issue is that the listing is extremely misleading. The photos displayed during the booking process create the impression that you will enjoy pleasant views of the hotel and its surroundings. However, our room overlooked an awful, unattractive area that was nowhere shown or even suggested in the listing. Had this view been disclosed, we would never have booked this room. When I contacted the hotel, they simply replied that the room photos were accurate and that the other pictures represented the hotel in general. This completely misses the point. The problem is not the room itself—it is that the actual view from the room is never disclosed, making the listing misleading and, in my opinion, dishonest. The room itself was also disappointing. The furniture and television were old and outdated, and the overall standard was nowhere near what I would expect from a 4-star hotel. Overall, this hotel did not live up to its advertised standard, and I left feeling disappointed.

Convenient, especially for those with a car

Highly recommend Hotel Antillia! The location is perfect, within easy walking distance of the port and the old city centre. Our room was spacious and spotlessly clean, and the staff went out of their way to be helpful. While we skipped the hotel breakfast buffet because it seemed a bit pricey—especially since you can easily get coffee and pastries nearby for half the cost—we did enjoy the bar, which serves decent food for a late snack. Don't miss the spa either; we had a couple of facials that were excellent and very reasonably priced. We would definitely stay here again!

Had a great stay at this property. Suite had 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, balcony, kitchen, living and eating area. Property was clean and well maintained, including pool, sauna and hot tub. Check in and check out were smooth, breakfast included each day, and was very good. Convenient location and parking also easy in the garage. Staff also very friendly and professional. Would stay again.

Very ice place to stay. Only 6 units on site. Staffs are vey friendly.

Very nice and spacious apartment in a good, quiet location. Parking is a big plus. Communication with the host was flawless. Thank you!
