Azoris Royal Garden – Leisure & Conference Hotel Reviews

Whilst the hotel was very modern it seemed to lack basics such as a kettle in the room (there is a nespresso machine but for any tea drinkers out there they will know that making tea through a coffee machine is far from ideal) and being able to retrieve an iron. Instead you are expected to put items in for laundry when all we wanted to do was run an iron over a shirt for the evening. Pool area is stunning however has the most uncomfortable loungers you could ever find. They look great but the max stay to bathe is less than an hour before your entire body goes numb. It seems that this stunning hotel is trying to be a little above its star rating and failing on these few points at just trying that bit too hard for the clientele staying. Rooms were very clean although signs of some wear and tear are already starting to show. Location is EXCELLENT and staff helpful, polite and welcoming. Not sure if we would stay again as we are real sun worshipers and really struggled to enjoy the pool area here.

Very nice hotel. The front desk arranged to get my room earlier than 3pm. Staff was super helpful and very friendly. Everyone speaks English. Comfy bed. Burgers at the bar was delicious and breakfast was great. Close to shops, supermarket, gas station and cafe making it a prime location for my first time in Ponta Delgada. It was just a stopover but wish I stayed longer.

Very modern and clean hotel

The front desk employees were exceptionally helpful. The gave good suggestions for restaurants and sites on the island. They even called a site to make sure they were open on a national holiday when most places were closed. The restaurant had a large selection of food choices on their breakfast and dinner buffets. We ordered Ala carte at dinner and the food was hot and freshly prepared. Not a lot of spice, but flavorful non the less. The location was a little away from town center and had no ocean views. Rooms were very clean and special requests were handled quickly.

The hotel is very friendly and very central. The only less good things in my opinion were: parking costs €9 for those staying at the hotel, I think it's indecent, and the gym is also a little weak for those who like to do some workouts. Other than that, it was a good experience.

A very good stay experience. The hotel facilities are very new and deserve the four-star rating. It takes a few minutes to walk to the old town, but it is within a very convenient range, and it is very convenient to park because you don't have to drive in the old town. Very good value for money. Breakfast is average, with a lot of good bread choices but no real meat.

The location is good, quite central and the service was good. The breakfast could be improved in terms of the amount of elements to put in the bread, which they gave us was insufficient for two people and the breakfast cereals should have been something like oatmeal and granola instead of achapic and estrelitas. Overall I think it has good quality for the price.

Ideal location in Ponta Delgada with good amenities

Hotel well located, with easy access on foot to the city center. Paid parking, however free parking is easily available on the street. Good breakfast, with quality products except sweets, which have little variety and are not homemade. Cold, weak and very slow cappuccino (despite being made to order). Good spa.

Good breakfast.

Great hotel with great staff. Very good breakfast. I highly recommend it. Thank you for your accommodation.

Modern, well-equipped hotel near the center. The swimming pool is a plus.

Facts during our stay: - AC made very loud banging sound in our room and we had to move late in the evening to another room - yoga class which was publicized in the elevator was cancelled without notice. I arranged my plans around this and ended up wasting my morning due to this. - breakfast spread was quite nice and the dining room staffs were friendly and helpful.

Hotel rooms are worth the money but the hotel itself is a tourist trap, the restaurant is overpriced and the food quality isn’t up to snuff. They make you buy swimming caps to use the pool. 9 euros a day for parking. The bike rentals are very expensive. Even the soap in the shower seemed watered down. The sauna was not hot enough, warm at best, the hot tub literally had cold water coming out of the jets, and the Turkish bath was so stinky.
