Estalagem Da Ponta Do Sol

Hotel godny polecenia. Obsługa miła i sympatyczna. Pokoje czyste , zadbane, codzienna wymiana pościeli i ręczników. Jedzenie urozmaicone i smaczne. Widoki z hotelu niesamowite (położenie hotelu na klifie i dojazd windami ).Hotel usytuowany blisko plaży.

Man kan kun være taknemmelig De smukkeste udsigter, udsøgt betjening, super lækker morgenmad. Wellnessområdet kunne trænge til en up-grade - men alt i alt vender man taknemmelig hjem efter en uge på dette fantastiske hotel og dejlig lille by med fine spisemuligheder også - i kort gå afstand fra hotellet.

Mooi hotel op mooie plek

This was our fourth visit to Estalagem, and it felt like we returned to familiar surroundings. Since our last visit there has been a new steam room and outdoor jacuzzi installed which are welcome additions. The breakfasts are of good quality (other than the cooked items which don't appear to be cooked to order), and drinks in the bar are very reasonably priced and generous measures. Evening meals were of good quality, but more expensive than most other restaurants that we ate at. The unreliable lift has been replaced and was in working order all week. The two log burning fires are great to sit by on chillier evenings (in January). The hotel was clearly stylish and well designed when open, but it is now showing signs of wear-and-tear and really ought to have an upgrade. Examples of some observations: ceiling damage in the restaurant patched up with a piece of paper; missing slate upstand in our bathroom; WC seat not fitted on straight in our bathroom; shower door ill fitting leading to daily leaks; damaged mirror panelling under sink in our room; stained furniture in the bar; all areas in need of painting and decorating; some disrepair to outside pool; damaged table tops in restaurant. On one day after our room had been cleaned we were left with 2 extremely dirty wine glasses (they were unused before the room was cleaned) - I suspect that cups/glasses are rinsed in the bathroom basin and wiped with a dirty towel. In a hotel such as this it would be appreciated if shampoo/conditioner/body lotion are provided in addition to the shower gel. In summary, we felt that there was little checking/auditing of standards. However, our biggest disappointment was the introduction of 'Purple Fridays'. We received an invitation to a 'vibrant, electrifying event for locals, guests and the digital nomad community' which are held each Friday evening. During the day much preparation was done to set up an outside bar, and we were informed that limited drinks would be available in the main bar. Those attending the event would need to purchase a plastic 'glass'. During the afternoon non-residents began arriving that were very different to the hotel's normal clientele. I was told that several hundred non-residents attended and think it highly unlikely that many, if any, residents took part. Being of a certain age, I could not describe the type of music the boom boom boom was that we heard from our room, but the day after I was informed that it was VERY 'techno, techno TECHNO' - completely inappropriate for the residents, and clearly aimed at non-residents as a money-earning event. Cordons were set up to direct guests away from bedrooms, but we were still aware of people exiting late at night. Late into the night we heard trolleys passing our room as staff were clearing up after the party. In the morning there was the usual detritus evident after a party - lots of cigarette ends etc despite staff busily trying to clear up. It was such a shame - a very in

Très bel hôtel avec architecture au design très original, aérée et sobre superbement intégrée au rocher qui domine la plage et le bord de mer de Ponta do Sol. Beaucoup de recoins magnifiques côté jardin et côté mer pour faire une pause en plein air, au calme. Belle piscine à débordement, jacuzzi au bord de la falaise et piscine intérieure très chaude avec une vue magnifique sur le bord de l'océan. Petit-déjeuner extra avec vue plongeante sur la ville et ses collines. Personnel très accueillant et prévenant aussi bien à l'accueil que le personnel des chambres que celui de la restauration. Parking gratuit au pied de l'hôtel où il n'est malheureusement pas toujours simple de trouver une place (car barrières ouvertes en permanence). Petite salle de sport avec vue sur mer extra...mais n'ouvre qu'à partir de 9h00..un peu tard pour les lève tôt. On a vraiment apprécié les jardins et espaces verts et la vue magnifique sur l'océan. Grandes chambres très agréables et très propres. On n'avait pas vue sur mer mais la vue sur les jardins, les collines et la ville est très belle également. On recommande sans hésiter.

The facilities leave nothing to be desired and the location of the hotel is simply top. The staff is very friendly.
