Boavista Hotels

"It’s opposite the Marina and within walking access to the Old town. The train and bus stations are a short walk away. This made the stay convenient. We got a bottle of wine as part of the hotels.com reservation which was great. We went for the half board option expecting a buffet for dinner but instead we had a three course meal which far outweighed the costs of the half board deal. Bed, pillows and room was comfortable. Good bathroom with toiletries. Also got a free bottle of still and sparkling water. Great deal overall!"

"The gentleman at the front desk was wonderful. Very helpful. The breakfast bar……..I’m celiac. The first morning I asked a staff member about gluten free. She kind of laughed, then pointed out the 3 supposedly hot things I could have. The pastries were beautiful, but nothing available for gluten free. The size of this breakfast buffet is nothing short of unbelievable. Celiac is not a choice. This is a disease. Vegetarian is easily available. Sent a msg to the hotel manager. He emailed back & said he’d talk to the kitchen manager. "

"Beautiful garden areas and lots of foods choices at buffets "

"Well worth the price "

"The kitchen was fully but sparsely equipped. A Teflon fry pan past its best before was quickly replaced. Even dishwasher soap was provided. Housekeeping were very accommodating even when we were very late leaving the room. Did not try the breakfast"

"Very clean place round, some rooms with small balconies, ground bar and roof top bar and small pool (bar limited hours in March). 5 - 10 minutes walk down to quay side and ferries to outlying islands. Hotel staff could not have been more helpful. Good breakfast for €12pp, hot and cold food, three courses set you up for the day. Good value as well. Highly recommended "

"It was a quick in and out for the airport. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and safe."

"Staff first class. Food excellent. Rooms superb and pool area spotless. Room view as good as it gets. Not the cheapest but treat yourself! "

"Beautiful hotel"
