Stayed here for 2 nights in July whilst on an island-hopping tour of the Azores. First impressions where that the hotel was quite grand, located pretty much in the centre of town (great as a base for exploring), just across from the ferry which takes you across to other islands. The rooms are clearly of 4* standard - good comfortable... more

The hotel itself is very nice, the breakfast buffet is extensive, and the location is great (directly across from the ferry terminal). However, the staff was so unfriendly and unhelpful that we finally complained to the manager. Examples: Despite requesting upper-floor rooms with harbor views many months in advance of our stay, we were assigned to the lowest possible floor,... more

Although being Portuguese citizen living in Lisbon, (at 39yo) never had been to Azores - so decided to do take my family on a 1 week mini trip to 3 islands. Bought the trip at a well known Portuguese agency 2 months earlier and had the all the reservations confirmed and paid at the time. Arriving to Hotel do Canal... more

I would highly recommend the Hotel do Canal and would stay there again. We spent three nights in this hotel in room 132. The hotel is very nice and although the rooms are modest (based on US standards) they are very clean and spacious. Our room had two twin beds pushed together to form a Queen size bed. Be warned... more

I was very satisfied with my stay here at Hotel do Canal in Horta, Faial. Very clean, nice place that was quiet at night. Perfect location, right on the main walkway and main street through Horta. Plus you can walk right across the street to take the ferry to Pico. The food was good and fresh for the morning buffet... more

The Do Canal Hotel is friendly and the rooms adequate but with fairly restricted views. The food is good and the position of the hotel opposite the ferry terminal ideal for exploring Horta and a ferry visit to Pico . As you leave the main entrance the town of Horta is mainly on your left with a short walk to... more

The hotel is close to everything...The boot is coming in front of the hotel..The peter's sport cafe is at 200m...Perfect location. The breakfast is perfect. The sole "problem" was the fact that the room has no view... A place to sta for sure. more

My wife, 2 year-old son, and I spent 18 days in the beautiful Acores Islands. The first 5 nights were in Horta, Faial and the rest was on the capital of Sao Miguel. We flew from Providence, Rhode Island via SATA Airlines directly into Sao Miguel, (St. Michael) Island. We had a problem upon arrival because they wouldn't check our... more

I stayed on three different Islands during my trip and this Hotel was by far the best I stayed at. The staff is very friendly and if you have trouble speaking Portuguese, you will have no problem here because the staff speaks english very well. I enjoyed the breakfast and the location across from the Ferry is very convient. Unfortunately,... more
