We had a premium apartment in a premium hotel. The staff were friendly, polite and attentive. Breakfast each day was very good. The restaurant is good as well. We have stayed here before we will stay here again.

I stayed at the Shipyard Angra Hotel for 5 nights in an Apartment-Style, one-bedroom unit with breakfast & dinner included, and I had a great experience overall. I arranged my airport transportation directly through the hotel, and everything went smoothly—the driver was waiting for me right on time both on arrival and departure.

At check-in, I was informed that the 20% roundtrip airport transfer discount listed on Expedia was an error and none of the rooms see the ocean. But the spacious layout and thoughtful amenities—hot plate, microwave, kettle, kitchenware, and mini fridge made up for the parking lot view. (The Studio-style rooms are located on the top floor that you see in the photos)

The hotel’s location is excellent—walking distance to everything in the heart of Angra. It’s a perfect choice for couples or families who appreciate a bit more space or want the option to prepare simple meals between dining out. The included continental breakfast offers a variety of options, and you can order eggs fresh to your liking.

Since this was a working trip, I had prepaid for dinners, and that turned out to be the highlight of my stay. The meals were delicious and full of flavour, & the chef was kind enough to make a few accommodations for me.

Most of all, I want to thank the incredible restaurant team at A Oficina - Brandon, João, Letícia, and Cristiana made every meal feel warm and welcoming with their friendly service and genuine hospitality. They truly made my experience!

The one-bedroom apartment with pull-out couch was perfect for our family of four. Spacious room, very comfortable beds, deck for drying our swim gear, free on-site covered parking, and delicious array of foods at the complimentary breakfast each morning. Great location in Angra, walkable (for those able-bodied) to the main town areas for shops, restaurants, the forts, churches, waterfront, beach, and more. Staff was friendly and we were so appreciative that they were able to allow us an early check-in after our overnight flight. That early afternoon nap saved the first-day exhaustion and allowed us to enjoy the rest of the day.

We loved this hotel! We were travelingin with our children, and this was our first hotel on the trip. Really cool vibe, room was really spacious, and loved the pullout couch for the kids so we could have our own space. Restaurant and bar was wonderful, and the buffet breakfast was outstanding. Location was great, we were a 10 minute walk from the harbor, and easy walking distance to squares, restaurants, and sites. And really loved the free parking in the garage under the property. Highly recommend, would return for another stay.

The staff was nice. Our room was huge with a living room and kitchen and a nice bathroom. It was clean and well maintained. The location was okay, we could have done better in town. I thought we would have a nice view, but the hotel isn’t oriented to look at the water. Our room had a terrible view of a parking lot, felt very creepy. There is a free parking garage which is great. The breakfast is okay, but the quality of breakfast made us avoid eating at the restaurant for any other meals. The air conditioning isn’t really very functional. They have units mounted on the wall, but they don’t put out much cool air. We opened the the windows at night to cool the room off. Overall a just okay experience.

This is the second time weve stayed at this hotel. This time was because we were in a marcha for san joaninas and we needed a place to stay for a night. Although we absolutely love this hotel, it was a bit of a walk for us especially after marching down a rua da se.
Definitely recommended this hotel. The staff was very pleasant and the breakfast was amazing with lots of choices.

We have just stayed for 4 nights. It's important to note if you choose this hotel to pay extra for rooms on the 3rd Floor that have a view. Our room 207 overlooked a commercial vehicle car park. It was very depressing. The hotel was full so couldn't change rooms. The darkness was compounded by poor lighting in the rooms including the bathroom.
Air-conditioning was a little weak.
Breakfast is good, but ordering the hot food and Coffee was sometimes slow.
The barman in the evening was excellent.
The hotel is in a nice location and a short walk to the supermarket and the Canadhina restaurant was a fun locals place to eat.

Beautiful hotel and comfortable rooms. Two bedroom apartment had a massive deck with a view of the ocean. Staff went out of their way to be helpful, including setting up airport transportation and making up the sofa bed before a late night arrival. Staff responded nearly immediately to messages. Short walk to the center of town. Continental breakfast was adequate, though a little slim on protein options.

Great hotel, super location

Great modern hotel only 10 minutes walk to the town centre. Lovely apartment with spacious lounge and bedroom areas. Kitchenette really convenient. A few items of crockery missing but not a big issue for a couple. The balcony glass was shattered which did not compromise safety or affected our stay but it was odd we were given that room when the hotel was not busy. We needed air conditioning as the bedroom was very warm but unfortunately the air con was not operating in April. But with eco credentials it is understandable.

This hotel is a great location with an 8 minute walk to the center of the city. Walking along the harbor avoids most hills except a large set of stairs to go up and down. Parking is included underground in the building which is great. It would have been hard to navigate the narrow streets in the city center to get in and out with a car. The staff were very helpful with taxi’s restaurant reservations and tour drivers. The breakfast room was nice and the food served was good and fresh. The rooms were modern and clean. The only thing I would note is that our room smelled very musty throughout. Our family member’s room next door did not have this smell but instead would get an occasional sewer smell. There had just been a lot of rain so I don’t know if this played a role or if it is always like this. Regardless, we would still recommend this hotel and had a great time in Angra. Such a beautiful city

Absolutely excellent hotel. Modern, very attentive and pleasant staff, convenient location, free underground parking, even curtains operating on buttons. Very good breakfast but no hot meal options. We have tried the restaurant and found it good but more expensive than it is worth. Restaurants in downtown are better value, but if you are tired at the end of a busy day then absolutely go and dine right on the property.

Amazing property! The furnishings in the room are top notch. Very nice whole room bluetooth speakers that we didn’t discover until our last day. About 10-15 min walk to town. Make sure you make reservations for dinner in this town otherwise you might not be eating. My only complaints are the service was not that friendly or informative for such a nice hotel. Also the AC doesn’t work that great which is kind of annoying at night.

Avoid - very poor customer service

Beautiful hotel, unfortunately that’s where the pleasantries end.

Customer service was absolutely horrible and I was accused of taking the access card. Firstly, no use of a plastic card, and secondly, only received one.
Asked for early check-in, felt like such an imposition. AC in the room didn’t work, was so hot and stuffy.

Night clerk was very rude and made it appear that I was inconveniencing him when I needed to leave. It’s 2024, get card access after hours.

Overall, horrible customer service.

Very nice hotel, with free onsite parking. They also have EV chargers in the parking garage. The hotel rooms are very clean and have very comfortable bedding. My major issue was the AC. It barely works. Even on the lowest setting it was still warmer than what I would have liked. My sister and brother in law had the same issue in their room. We contacted the front desk and the maintenance person was “on vacation” so nothing could be done. We did dine in the restaurant and I had the best octopus dish I’ve ever had. Also convenient that they have free beach towels that you can take/return daily.

Beautiful, comfortable hotel during our stay in Angra. The rooms were large, very clean, and the halls were quiet. We were also able to check in several hours before the official time since we took an early mornjng flight to Terceira. We found that parking around town was rather difficult, and it was great to have the underground parking to leave the car at the hotel and wander the town and marina on foot.

No negatives to report, will recommended this to anyone looking to visit!

I would expect to pay $300-500 per night in a major US city for these rooms and we paid ~$150 per night. The staff is super helpful and the restaurant has amazing food and service.

Great Hotel

The Shipyard is a ultra modern high tech hotel. We stayed in a suite complete with kitchen which was most useful. The room was large and airy. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was spacious. The served breakfast had a large selection to suite every need. The hotel was great but if i had to find fault, the location is a bit far - 10 to 15 minutes walk - from town. Also the hotel is located in a commercial area with some run-down buildings in the vicinity. This modern hotel seems out of place. Nevertheless, I would certainly recommend this property in spite of its location.

Could offer more in room snacks w local items like wine and cheese and refs for local restaurants. The complimentary coffee and tea is not great at all. You have to wait until 7 or 8 am to get real coffee in lobby or venture out, which is what I did. They did make me an omelet one night on the fly w French fries which was good. Feel like room was nice but international outlets are in weird places to access. It’s on point for cost and I enjoyed my stay and would stay again.

The hotel staff are very friendly and speak English. They cheerfully assisted us with any questions or arrangement requests. The hotel rooms are spacious, thoughtfully layed out and nicely decorated. The on site restaurant is delicious, also with friendly servers, feels more like a nice independent restuarant than a 'hotel restaurant'.

The location, while only a few minutes, is a hilly walk into the center of Angra and not good for anyone with mobility issues.

Really stylish decor, clean and comfortable hotel with very spacious suites. Stayed on the 2nd floor in a 1 bedroom apartment and loved it. Super convenient to have a full suite including a living and dining area.
There are food trucks just down the street so easy to bring food back to the suite.
Loved this hotel and the staff were great.
Breakfast and parking included which is a bonus.

The downside to this property is the view from the large balcony isn't great, and unfortunately when someone in another suite is cooking, all their food smells vent through the cooktop vent in our suite! It wasn't pleasant so not sure how the venting was constructed!

These items wouldn't change my 5 star review. This hotel is wonderful and would stay here again for sure.

Fabulous hotel in fascinating Angra

The Shipyard in Angra was outstanding. The large, comfortable rooms are apartment style and well equipped with everything you need. Very comfortable bed and bedroom has blackout curtains to assure a good nights sleep. Great bathroom with double sinks, large towels, and a strong shower. Lovely kitchen even though we didn’t do any cooking and nice comfortable living room. Nice deck overlooking the edge of town and the castle, with a glimpse of the Atlantic. The hotel has a great rooftop area w lounge chairs, and other amenities. Can not say enough about the professionalism of the staff. They are extremely accommodating and kind. The restaurant is great and both the food and service is excellent. The hotel has free parking in an underground garage. Location is on the edge of town so it was quiet and made access in and out of town very easy. It’s a short walk to the center and the marina. Angra is a beautiful, fascinating city and best exored by foot. Hiking poles recommended if you’re not used to steep hills. The Shipyard in Angra was perfect in every way.
