The Lince Azores

Location is about 15min walk from the town centre.the front over looks the main rd and flats. We were on the 5 floor with good views of the mountains and ocean. The rear rooms would have similar views.the rd is not noise at night. The room was large, clean and had most things you needed except coffee machine. Bathroom was big and clean .bed comfy and tv was usual stuff on the channels .staff where friendly and helpful . breakfast was in a large room with loads of tables. everthing you could want at a breakfast .

We booked a twin room through a tour company but on arrival were given a double room. Reception staff seemed unapologetic, disinterested, busy with other things. and reluctant to make eye contact. We persisted and a bed was brought into our room for the night. The following day they transferred us to a twin room and were all smiles. We had complained by then to the tour company. Apart from that the food was lovely and the hotel comfortable.

This is a well located hotel, though a bit further than some from the downtown/waterfront action. Rooms are an adequate size with plenty of closet space and a good sized bathroom with a lovely shower head in the tub, so it is not a walk-in shower. Lighting could use improvement but opening the windows provides lovely light. Beds are soft but we all slept well. We were on the side of the busy road so you will hear cars all day but people stop driving later at night so it never prevented our sleep. Breakfast is excellent with a lot of variety. It will essentially be the same every day but you can easily mix up what you are having and there were lots of fruit and drink options which we really appreciated. Most days the free parking behind the hotel was easy to find. The lobby is very large and has great seating to hang out there. You are about 1 km from downtown area but lots of restaurants to choose from and we found a good grocery store in nearby pingo douce to get our items for lunches. We would definitely return to this location should we find ourselves back here again. Being in Ponto Delgado is also a nice central city to stay in for exploring the island.

We feel like home! Very cozy and very friendly! Rooms are comfortable, the breakfast is very reach. I can say only the best words for Octant hotel.

This hotel made us a very big suprize, that made our last day in the Azores, unforgetablie. We booked into the LN room and go, that belongs to the same companey, and where upgraded to stay in the hotel brekfast inckuded. This is a beautifull hotel, with a great room. Very good and reach breakfast , and all for the same price we payed for the cheaper place. Thank you very much, to the staff of the Azores hotel, for giving us such a wonderfull last night , before going home.
