Hotel Beira Mar

Everything was excelente. The view from the bedroom balcony is breathtaking, right after waking up. People at the reception, like Cristiana, very helpful. The cleaning team as well as the restaurant were all very sympathetic and atencios. The breakfast buffet offers many options, including various types of bread and cheese. Bacon, scrambled eggs, pancakes, fruit, yoghurt, cereal and, of course, milk, coffee and tea. The 3 star hotel, do to the aged building, have to be a lithle improved. Like the windows as an exmple. But all togueder, I was in a 5 star. Thank you very much, everybody...

Great location. You can hear the sound of the waves while you sleep. Spacious room, very clean and odor-free with AC, minibar, bidet and bathtub. Breakfast included with lots of options. All the staff I interacted with were very friendly and helpful. The only downside is that I couldn't get a WIFI signal inside the room.

Gorgeous old hotel They kept the seafront terrace closed for the season

Hotel Beira Mar is situated in the best location of Angra do Heroísmo directly facing to the sea. You can easily walk to Monte Brasil or explore the beautiful streets of Angra from there. The hotel staff were always receptive to any request and gave me a wonderful room on the 3rd floor with an incredible view. It was so peaceful to hear the waves rolling onto the shore. The hotel and room were spotlessly clean and had everything to make for a relaxing stay. The complimentary buffet breakfast was more than adequate, and the fresh homemade cakes were so delicious! Restaurant Beira Mar which is located in the hotel served the most fresh and reasonably priced seafood dishes. You can choose to sit inside or on the terrace facing the sea. My meal was so good that I returned the next evening and ordered exactly the same thing. One of the best meals ever! I stayed five nights and would definitely choose Hotel Beira Mar again on any return visit to Angra.

We came to Beira Mar for many years, always to have lunch on the terrace. We remember an impeccable and attentive service. Our experience yesterday was a harsh deception. Coming in, we were not greeted as usual. Waiters and waitresses were not dressed the way they were. We recognised two waiters only, the rest of the staff were new to us. Only very reluctantly we were seated on the terrace. To try to get the attention of a waiter to place our order was a thing of impossibility. The waiters chatted among each other and forgot about the guests. We asked for oil and vinegar for the salad - only vinegar came. When asking for the wine list, we had to wait about 5 minutes. When ordering the wine, an island wine, we were told that our choice was not available. We accepted the suggested alternative. However, on the check, our first choice of wine, at double the price of the alternate wine was registered. If it was clumsyness or bad faith, I will not decide. Our good memories of the place is in any case tainted. When I confronted the one waiter I recognised from many stays - he also remembered me - I felt his embarassement. But his apology was so softly spoken, practically not to be heard. I doubt that we will go vack to Beira Mar - it saddens me.
