Hotel do Canal

We loved our three day stay here. Very professional and friendly staff with a delicious breakfast buffet. The view from our window overlooking the marina and the mountain on the Island of Pico was stunning. Appreciated the underground parking and easy access. Loved the first floor lounge allowing a quiet and comfortable location to read in the early morning so as not to disturb my sleeping wife. Beautiful sunrise there. Location was ideal for hiking to the beach and enjoying the local restaurants.

From check-in to check-out everything went well for our stay. The staff was very friendly and addressed any issue we had very quickly (safe in room was finicky). The rooms are spacious and so comfortable. Ours had a harbor/ocean view. The beds are comfortable and luxurious. The bathrooms are roomy. (in our accommodation we had 1.5 bathrooms!). The buffet breakfast in the morning is enormous and delicious. All types of breakfast food.

There was fresh fruit in our room, the staff were very kind and hospitable in every aspect! As we did not like the regular filter coffee at breakfast, so we were served quality coffee with no additional change. We stayed in the hotel for just one night but would like to come back for longer.

Although the building seemed to be older from outside, the rooms and interior was very comfy and cozy. Located right at the esplanade, but very quiet at nights. Stunning view of moutain Pico from our room. We were given a small gift from the staff (fresh fruits, water and pastry), that was very nice. Free garage parking for guests.

The location was excellent right next to the harbour and the whale watching facilities which is the main reason we went to this hotel. Really good restaurants within walking distance.
