"Der Check In war gut, Gastgeberin und ihr Mann sind Herzensmenschen. DIe Lage ist zentral in Praia Vitoria. Im November ist das Haus kühl, wir haben gefroren. Die Gastgeberin stellte uns kleine Heizgeräte zur Verfügung, diese schafften es jedoch nicht warm zu machen. Wäsche waschen ist problematisch weil die Tür der Waschmaschine jahrelang geschlossen ist und dadurch „stockig riecht“, wir rochen dann wie nasse Hunde. Wenn es regnet sind die Fensterbereiche und Türbereiche (zur Wetterseite) nass...

Atlantida Mar Hotel
Praia da Vitoria

10/10 Excellent

Great hotel for a family stay- double bed, single bed & sofa bed. All lovely & clean including the pool area. Breakfast was good quality with plenty of choice. Bit of a walk to town & Praia Vitoria isn't the most attractive spot in the Azores but was ideal as a base.
