Liked: Cleanliness
Staff were nice and tried to please but service was slow. Difficult to get staff attention in the restaurant. The hotel was nice but the area was quite desolate. Very limited options for eating (1 village diner, and a couple of bars) The golf nearby was excellent and the pick up service was helpful. We didn’t have a hire car and getting around was hard. We really relied on the pick ups for the guided Levada walks

Fabuleux

Hôtel de charme en altitude dans un lieu d’exception. Notre chambre était spacieuse, confortable et très agréable. Je recommande de prendre le thé sur place avec les scones et gâteaux faits maison. Nourriture excellente et service impeccable. Tout était parfait.

Sauberes gut ausgestattetes Hotel. Frühstück und Abendessen waren klasse. Parkplätze direkt vor Hotel. Angestellten waren freundlich. Einziges Manko wären die etwas hellhörigen Zimmertüren.

Hôtel calme, le service peut être amélioré

Hotel au calme, bien entretenu et propre. Un peu en dessous en terme de service : pas de restauration le soir sans réservation préalable, petit déjeuner un peu tardif à partir de 8h.

Schönes Landhotel mit Macken!

Schönes Hotel am Land, aber: Zu wenig Sitzplätze im Restaurant (als Hotelgäste konnten wir am Nachmittag für das Abendessen keinen Tisch mehr für 2 Personen reservieren), das Hallenbad hat eine schlechte bzw. gar keine Lüftung (von der Decke tropft es dauernd herunter) und zu wenige Liegen, wir hatten ein Zimmer im "Turm", das ohne Lift nur über eine halsbrecherische Stiege erreichbar war und das Hinauf- und Hinuntertragen der Koffer war eine schweißtreibende Angelegenheit (es gab auch kein Gepäckservice). Ansonsten Zimmer, Frühstück und 1 x Essen im Hotel bezüglich Preis-/Leistung in Ordnung.

There's nothing special to do in the mountain area and the morning is pretty cloudy without view, also there's no view from the room. I expected to have better aroma in the room and in the pool and lobby area. The bad was soft and comfortable, the bath kit was nice, and the breakfast was good.

Bon séjour

Hotel de bon augure sur les hauteurs. Bon restaurant et bon petit déjeuner, pas beaucoup de choix proche si on veut diner à l'extérieur. Personnel sympathique. Piscine agréable le soir après avoir randonné dommage que le sauna ne fonctionne pas directement car pas envie de monter à la réception quand on est en maillot de bain !
