The rooftop pool had amazing views of the city, stocked towels and plenty of loungers. The room was way bigger than expected, had two smart TVs, clean and a big private balcony where we could hear the street music. The buffet was fully stocked with fruits, veg, pastries AND even had crispy bacon. My son called it five stars. We all enjoyed our time here.

Helpful, friendly staff. They kindly let us book in early as my wife had a fall in the morning
We left very early and a taxi was booked for us, very helpful. Lovely location, no shortage of restaurants in the area. Pretty view from the balcony
Would Definitely recommend.

It was a beautiful location. Although it was an old building. It was updated recently. Beautiful architecture. Beautiful garden. Restaurants are nice. The only bad thing was Google maps did not have it exact on the maps and it took me awhile to find.

We had a great stay! Inis, the receptionist at night was so helpful and patiently answered all of our questions. The hotel is close to everything in a safe location. The breakfast was outstanding. The only issue was the rooftop pool was being cleaned when it was supposed to be open so we couldn’t take advantage of that amazing view.

The Hotel Talisman was a very good choice for my first night in Sao Miguel having taken a taxi from the airport. It is close to the centre of town and less than 5 minutes from where I picked up my hire car the next day. I didn't eat there that night as they only had a buffet for dinner. However breakfast was very good with a great deal of choice. The hotel is in a very old building with a quirky room layout but that only added to the charm of the place. I understand they have paid parking available but it wouldn't be my choice to stay with a car as the surrounding streets are very narrow.

We had a brief stay at this hotel en route to other destinations. The bed was comfortable and room spacious and clean. The breakfast buffet was sufficient. Did not have time to use the pool or other amenities but wished we had.

The bathtub was too small to actually be used as a bath, but fine for showering.

Nice central location close to the airport. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Our room was so musty smelling, we couldn’t tolerate it. They moved us to a different room, which was smaller but worth downsizing to avoid the musty smell. The rooftop pool was wonderful. Great location.

We stayed one night in May 2026. We were welcomed warmly even though we arrived late at night due to a much delayed flight from Ponta Delgada. They upgraded us to a suite, which we were grateful for, after a long day of flying, and extended layovers in 4 airports, and getting lost while trying to find the hotel in the dark. The room was clean, and we enjoyed a peaceful night's rest and a standard complimentary breakfast the next morning.

Small issue. Asked for packed breakfast for last day, stating we are vegetarian and need lactose free milk. The breakfast box provided had cheese and meat in croissant and yoghurt, fruit and cookies. So pretty much had the fruit for last breakfast. Maybe some misunderstanding.

The only issue was with the lack of a wake up call on my first day when I had a morning tour planned. Neither of the two I requested went through. However, I am in a Portuguese speaking country and was not equipped to request a wake-up call in that language. The one staff member was not able to understand me, so I noted the next time I asked for a call, she wrote an hour later down- when I noted it, and wrote the correct time, she had another staff member aid me and we were able to communicate effectively and she addressed my concerns and called the tour company to assure I would be picked up. Breakfast was filling and worth it!

I returned to Ponta Delgada for a second time and chose this hotel as a base again as my first stay was so good.

There is work being done on the hotel and has clearly been a lot done already it. Disruption was minimised during my stay, but my scores reflect the work.
- my room was much brighter than last year and the AC easier to use
- the new layout of the rooftop has resulted in the pool appearing much larger, more inviting and much safer.
- the gym is in progress and looks like it will be bigger too but some of it was moved downstairs while that work is ongoing.
- The quality of service and staff attentiveness is clear to behold.

As a slight aside, there are a lot of reviews around the place talking about the external noises through the night. While I didn't have an issue once I nodded off, I did notice it during the day, when it was not an inconvenience, so was wondering if sound proofing of windows and balconies on the park side was also part of the upgrade plan?

Thanks to all the staff for a wonderful stay.

Property is conveniently located within walking distance to many amenities. We didn't use the rooftop pool, albeit small it looked inviting. Front desk staff amazing, restaurant staff a hit or miss. Only deterrent was the group of homeless hanging out in the park adjacent to the patio. It was cleaned up everyday by municipal staff and they didn't bother anyone, was just an eyesore and they could be loud at night (we had a window overlooking the park) we especially liked the convenience of having secure parking as well for our rental car which wasn't far away and reasonably priced.

Not bad but not sure I would stay there again

Quaint boutique hotel within walking distance to center city….
Right near gates, bell tower and waterfront.
A very short walk to Antonio Borges botanical gardens (you must eat lunch at their restaurant- THE BEST). A little longer walk to Arruda Pineapple Plantation which was our favorite plantation. We flew overnight and arrived early morning and they allowed us to check in earlier, very much appreciated. Room was spacious by Europe standards. Minor issues to start, internet issue until the next day, safety box needed new batteries, no big deal.
They do offer breakfast buffet (included) and it got progressively worse by the day. I feel they need to seriously improve it. We rented a car for the weekend and the hotel is affiliated with the agency connected to hotel. Several dinner options all pretty good and within walking distance. If I come back it would be summertime and would definitely stay more in the Furnas area….
It wa our favorite day by far, try not to miss the thermal spa there.

The restaurant and its staff are is good focusing on Italian dishes. Staff at front desk are efficient but not friendly, except for one woman who was nice. You can leave your luggage if you arrive before the 2pm checkin time.
There’s a lovely rooftop pool but it was closed for repairs during my visit.
