Vila Franca do Campo Holidays from £543

Welcoming and helpful staff, comfy beds, beautiful grounds and views and so much peace and quiet! We stayed in early April and the weather was beautiful but unpredictable (as usual in the Azores) and our room stayed a comfortable temperature the entire time without using the thermostat. The only change I'd make is more variety at breakfast and more opportunity to try the Azorean beef at dinner!

This hotel definitely earns 5 stars. The breakfast was very good with a lot of food choices in a cozy restaurant. Hotel on this island is a better option than a Airbnb due to no good restaurants that serve breakfast. All restaurants on the island start serving food at noon. The lobby is very nice with beautiful vases and other nice decorations. Near the staircase was a nice little library where you can borrow books. What I did not like is the AC. Temperature does not go below 19 C. I like to sleep with a temperature of 16C. I had to sleep with the open balcony. It worked only because I lived on a second floor. Hotel does not provide shampoo. Only soap is provided. Some rooms appear to be a way better than others. We had a big group occupying 3 rooms. The outdoor backyard is very large and nice. It has fruit trees with sweet fresh oranges. The hotel has a gym, spa, tennis court, and an outdoor pool which is not heated. There is a tiny pool inside the pineapple greenhouse but it is extremely overcrowded. The Japanese restaurant was ok but could be better. It was too overpriced and sushi were small. I also liked how we would receive little gifts each night like little sweets and even a poem.

The hotel is a lovely, well kept property. There is parking and it’s 1.5km to the city Centre. The staff are willing to assist at anytime, and are always pleasant. Our room was very comfortable and was spacious. Roberto was a great host.

Appartement 1 chambre propre, confortable et spacieux. Le service quotidien des chambres est excellent avec le lavage de la vaisselle, l'eau, le café Nespresso. La réception est toujours prête à aider. Le déjeuner buffet ou à la carte est très bon. Excellente localisation au centre-ville avec vue sur la marina du balcon. Même si c'est sur la rue principale, ce n'est pas vraiment bruyant et l'appartement est bien insonorisé par rapport à l'extérieur. Points faibles : mauvaise insonorisation avec les autres chambres, la cuisine n'est équipée d'aucune produit de base tel que huile, sel, poivre, etc.
