A very nice hotel in the heart of the city. Very pleasant area, a nice square, shopping street, cafes and restaurants all nearby. I saw a lot of hotels in much worse location in Ponta Delgado. The hotel has a great restaurant as well. We had a dinner there couple nights and food was great and delicious. Breakfast is very good. I got a suite with huge balcony and 2 big rooms. They have a garage for 6 euros a day but there is plenty of street parking as well. Tea kettle is provided in the room and complementary tea and coffee.

Stephen United States of America

Great hotel in a fabulous location. Front desk staff was extremely helpful and welcoming (helped with rental car, tours, suggestions on things to do, etc.). The included breakfast was amazing (7:30-10am; fruit juice, cappuccino, eggs, bacon, fruit, waffles, bread). A bit too cold when I was there to use the rooftop pool, but it was nice and clean. Rooftop gym was in good working order and not crowded. Easy walking distance to the oceanfront, gardens, and many restaurants. Left a birthday surprise in my room which was unexpected and so sweet. Really great value for the money. Would highly recommend.

Pellegrini United States of America

Eric United States of America

Great location, nice big rooms and very good breakfast with nice view over small park. Staff changed my double bed with big single without problem. Staff very nice and super helpful. They helped me to reserve whale watching trip for the next day and I did arrived late. And after recommended good rent a car just nearby.

We liked everything. This is a really classy hotel in a great location. The rooms are very spacious. Breakfast was excellent On the rooftop they have a heated infinity pool which unfortunately I didn’t use because either we were touring or the weather was cool and raining. I did use their small but functional gym. All the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They care about their customers. I would definitely recommend Hotel Talisman.
