Pros:

Prachtige locatie, vriendelijk personeel, ruime parking, lekker gegeten

Cons:

Spijtig dat het zicht op de vallei Curral das Freiras voor de helft weggenomen werd door het dak van het zwembad.

Mooi uitzicht, maar niet iets voor een meerdaags verblijf
Pros:

Prachtige ligging!

Cons:

Weinig faciliteiten; geen bediening bij de lunch (en toen gingen we maar weg). Sfeerloos restaurant. Bijna geen keuze ivm dieet dat van te voren was doorgegeven. We zijn eerder weggegaan.

Fine for one night
Pros:

Staff were incredibly friendly and the views were amazing

Cons:

The hot breakfast was dreadful and the cold options limited. No one was eating the hot food as it was cold and slimey. They should just get rid of the hot food and invest in better cold options.

The beds were hard and the swimming pool was too shallow to comfortably swim in. Hotel has such great potential

Vistas al paraíso
Pros:

La ubicación es increíble. Las vistas hacia Curral da Feira, Pico Grande y resto del paisaje desde el hotel son inigualables

Cons:

Hubo un problema con el jabón de la ducha y nos duchamos dos días sin jabón. No funcionaba la sauna ni el baño turco, pero sí el spa.

Vergane glorie
Pros:

Het landschap. Het personeel.

Cons:

Het ontbijt was koud. Het spek kleefd aan elkaar. De bedden stonden niet goed vast. Het avondmaal was duur en de vis oneetbaar. De planken in de saunavloer zitten los. De jacuzzi stonk. Het zwembad was een plonsbad en het stoombad werkte niet.

Fantastische Lage, Zimmer gut und sauber, Essen nicht zu empfehlen7
Pros:

Die Aussicht war wunderbar. Wir hatten ein Upgrade bekommen und ein großes Zimmer mit einem zweiten Raum und Balkon mit Blick ins Nonnental. Die Betten waren sehr bequem, wir haben gut geschlafen. Die Unterkunft verdient eine 10, wäre da nicht das Restaurant... Der Obstsalat war gut, alles andere s.u.

Cons:

Das Frühstück war qualitativ billig
B und jeden Tag gleich bei geringer Auswahl. Der Kaffee war grauenhaft. Die Warmhaltebehälter hatten Deckel und keine Beschriftung, so dass man alles anschauen musste. Da in den Bewertungen das Abendessen lobend erwähnt wurde, haben wir es probiert. Ich habe noch nie so schlechtes, geschmackloses Gemüse bekommen. Ich habe davon nur einen Bissen probiert. Totgekocht, absolut ungewürzt ging es zurück und wurde auch nicht berechnet, was positiv erwähnt werden soll.

Empfehlenswert
Pros:

Es war sehr sauber, sehr nettes Personal. Wundervolle Aussicht vom Balkon ins Tal.
Alles unkompliziert.

Cons:

Es war hellhörig. Die Fensterläden vom Balkon sind sehr starr, schwer zu bedienen und sehr laut.
Das Frühstück war sehr eintönig. Wir waren 10 Tage dort, es gab die ganze Zeit immer das selbe. 1 Sorte Wurst, 1 Sorte Käse u.a.
Es fehlen Vorabinfos zum Mittags- und Abendmenü, um vorher entscheiden zu können, ob man im Hotelrestaurant essen möchte.

Astounding location
Pros:

The location - with the views - is astounding.
The room was spacious.
The pool area was very clean and well presented.

Cons:

There was no lounge or bar for guests to use - only the outdoor cafe (which closed early evening) and some sofas in corridors. The games room had no games.

Our room (superior double) had an unusual arrangement, with the bedroom separated from the balcony/view by another room, and the balcony having no furniture to sit out on. Also the shutters were broken and could not be left open in the wind.
