All around great hotel.
One interesting thing is in the apartment suites they don’t have the AC in the bedroom only in the living room When it gets hot that AC in the bedroom comes in pretty handy
Great stay. Comfortable rooms and good service. The outside of the building looked run-down, but the interior was good. Parking was not clearly marked.
We were here for my daughter's birthday and the team sent a cake to our room, it made us feel very special. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the pool was lovely as was our stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Furnishings are outdated and hotel is a bit away from a restaurant or bar. Staff was very friendly and the gym was nice.
Pros: easy to park, comfy room and sofas in common areas, next to diving centre, good views from room.
Cons: most disappointing breakfast ever, same thing every day, tasteless eggs and cheese, no vegetables, very limited vegetarian options (don’t stay there if you’re vegan), gym is paid extra as is pool table. I wouldn’t guess this was a 4 star hotel, defo not value for money.

Two days visit to see family. The hotel is run down but breakfast is superb. No coffee service in room,
Dont let the outside of the building influence you. The rooms ars big and clean, bed is a bit to hart for me, bathroom has a big tub and is very clean, breakfast is awesome and the pool just beautiful. You need a car to get around.
Excellent service, free parking, very good breakfast buffet, thankfully the restaurant was open for dinner. Only discomfort was the hard mattress, which is common in Portugal, but difficult to have a good night's sleep.
The staff are absolutely outstanding. They helped arrange an airport transfer for me early in the morning even when all the taxi drivers refused to come. Thank you for the incredible service from Hotel Colombo
The hotel was very clean and the front desk staffing were very friendly and accommodating. I would say the only thing lacking was that their was no shampoo or conditioner in the suite bathroom. But overall, a good hotel.
This hotel is an odd experience. On a beautiful small island, it is a giant architectural eyesore. We stayed here as there are not a lot of choices. But the hotel is a few km outside of Vila Do Porto, is huge, soulless and not particularly welcoming. It’s like a giant concrete lot where they park all the island visitors. They advertise a fitness center as part of the hotel. It is in the same building but not associated and they charge you €7.50 a visit. It’s tiny and was crowded when I tried to go. Not worth it. The staff at the hotel were nice enough, the included breakfast is nice enough. But if you can find a more authentic place to stay on the island, go there instead.
