Fantastic Hotel Experience!
great range fresh pastries helpful staff relaxed lobby
The breakfast had a great range of options and was constantly restocked. I especially liked the fresh pastéis de nata at the coffee station. The indoor pool was great. I enjoyed going from the sauna to the pool. The lobby was very relaxed, and the staff were helpful.
The corridors felt very long and the room I stayed in had very high ceilings, which affected the coziness.
Location
10/10
The hotel boasts a fantastic location, providing both convenience and a beautiful setting. It offers easy access to nearby shops, restaurants, and the port, really valuable. It is very easy to explore the town.

long check-in small room
the staff seemed attentive and helpful at breakfast.
Check-in took about half an hour. It seemed quite long. then, the room felt small, almost like a cell. the key card did not work for certain areas of the hotel. It reminded me of navigating a maze.
