My husband and I stayed here for the second part of our honeymoon in the Açores. Compared to the Atlantida hotel on Terceira, this hotel was a far second. The service was not as good from the desk agents, who most seemed annoyed with the tourism. The breakfast was good, but the coffee was not. No cappuccino or espresso was... More

Large rooms, great breakfast buffet, perfect location to visit the island but a bit far of the city centre (15min walk). The swimming pool area needs to be refurbished and the hotel surrounding seems not being well-kept outside summer period.

We stayed at The Lince for our anniversary and birthday and had a wonderful time. The people at the reception desk are most kind and helpful. Our room was large and very clean and has a window that opens to the ocean breeze. We had a top floor ocean, city, mountain view (6th floor) and watched the ships come in... More

First of all, no hotel in Ponta Delgada is more than 3 stars, regardless of how it's rated. The accommodations are not what you go for. This hotel is way uphill and it is a hike to and from all restaurants, the historic district, and the harbor. It has also seen better days. BUT...the rooms on the 6th floor all... More

Stayed here for 3 nights at the end of my trip to Sao Miguel in May 2013. The check-in process was efficient and helpful and the rooms were clean, well-equipped and quite large. The only item they were missing was a kettle. The location is among the best in Ponta Delgada, as the harbour is a 5 minute walk down... More

My stay over an extended Easter at the Lince in Ponta Delgada was very pleasant. it used to be the Holiday Inn, which is what attracted me in the first place. It still maintains almost as good a standard as the chain, made possible mainly by the really helpful staff, without whom my stay on this lovely island would have... More
