The place was clean and comfortable, I love the breakfast provided but the towels in the bathroom were not clean. OBS: Don't use the water or juice on the mini-fridge, they're very expensive.

Excellent hotel! The staff is very friendly and extremely accommodating with our needs. The location is 10 mins from airport and 15 min walk to beach. The food at the hotel restaurant is authentic Cape Verdean cuisine. Delicious! I would highly recommend staying at this hotel when in Praia.

Nice hotel in quiet city
Nice hotel with clean room. Only thing is that the windows in room are tiny and you hardly get any sun light into the room. Breakfast was nice and had lot of options. I was supposed to have airport pick up, but nobody from hotel was waiting me at airport, so picked up a regular taxi, same price as hotel pick up. Location is ok, you can walk to the old town. Wifi was fast and hotel looks very stylish. Would probably return to the same hotel, if coming back to Cabo Verde.

Excellent business hotel.
This sleek business hotel near the central Plateau district lives up to its high reviews on Tripadvisor. Combine modern furnishings, tasteful minimalist decor, a delicious breakfast buffet with plenty of variety, strong A/C, and a beautiful outdoor pool and you have one of Praia’s most comfortable business hotels. The only downside? The walls in the rooms are bare with no wall art - there are beautiful artworks and photographs in the hallways and common areas, but the walls in the rooms are begging for decor. Other than this, the hotel was perfect! I’d recommend it in a heartbeat.

The hotel has excellent conditions. The rooms are very clean with air conditioning. It is a great place to stay if you're travelling for work, as WiFi works quite well and there are rooms for meetings. The staff was really friendly and considerate. The localisation is great, within walking distance to the beach and to the historical centre.

Excellent staff & location
This hotel has excellent staff, always very pleasant and ready to help you. The location is great as well as it is equidistant from both a very nice beach and area - Kebra Canela, shopping and a fine restaurant Vintia and from Plateau a tourist area and old part of town and down below the Sucupira market. Right outside of the hotel you can either take the bus or taxis which are always coming by to take you anywhere if walking is not your forte. Across from the hotel you will see in development the Ilheu - small island which will have a casino, shoppping, etc. and to the right and already going up a big hotel. The hotel has an excellent full breakfast - variety of fresh fruit, baking goods, bacon eggs, etc and the traditional protein rich catchupa. The coffee regular american or expresso is excellent too. The restaurant however is a bit expensive, although their chef's shrimp cacerole was excellent - very tasty sauce! Enjoy your stay!

Overall great stay in Praia
Overall this hotel was amazing! Very comfortable and the breakfast buffet and rooftop were great. The location is quite nice as well. My only suggestion for improvement would be the service. When we first arrived, the receptionist claimed that they did not have a reservation for us even though we had paid through Hotels.com. Although the service at the restaurant was great, the service at the reception desk could be improved.

Super hotel in Praia
This is without a doubt one of the best hotel that I have stayed in anywhere and I travel twice a month for business. In a less developed country like Cape Verde it is truly a delight to come back to a top hotel with a great restaurant, a lovely pool, good room with a view of the bay and very friendly service. A win all around. They set us up with a very polite and very good driver, Silvio to take us around the Santiago island and that added to the enjoyment.

Below expectation
Food was below standard, always cold. Poor selection of foods. No food menu in room. No tea or coffee making facilities in room. No local information available. No bar as promised by pool. Nothing to do within the hotel. Hotel next to a bus parking compound, which was shabby and covered in litter. TV too small for room and mounted poorly. Only one armchair in room, so you have to sit on the bed. Asked for double bed and was given two single beds. Only positive, internet was stable and worked without cutting out. This hotel was supposed to be a 4 star place. I would recommend that its adjusted to a 2-3 star bed and breakfast and not a hotel.

Find another hotel
The location stank of car and lorry exhausts fumes. The hotel was effectively a building site. The room was stunning except the shower and toilet drain was exposed and looked broken or un finished. No wifi. Despite being promised breakfast nothing was laid on for us. We had pre paid via Hotels.com but was charged again in full. I honestly cannot recommend this hotel.
