“Small and nice hotel”

The big deal there is to stay in a 250 years old building full of history. The rooms are really big and comfortable. A good tip for a health-giving sleep is to stay away from the rooms next to the hotel entrance. Just across the street has a church where they play its bells in a extremely laud wa… more

“Just a cool place!”

If you want comfort go to a Holiday Inn, this is a tiny boutique hotel in a 250 year old house. In the heart of the historical center of the city. Very little to do at night by foot. We spent a lot of time with the food vendors on the square across the street. Great breakfast! There is a big churc… more

If you want comfort go to a Holiday Inn, this is a tiny boutique hotel in a 250 year old house. In the heart of the historical center of the city. Very little to do at night by foot. We spent a lot of time with the food vendors on the square across the street. Great breakfast! There is a big church right across the street that has a very loud bell, so if you are a light sleeper don't stay in one of the front rooms. The restaurant on the first floor is awesome, great pizza!

“A quaint hotel in the old part of town”

This hotel is next to the cathedral and close to a fort. It is in the old part of town but close to the markets and the Docas (Docks) area. The latter is the place to catch river tours and good for eating and drinking. We were told to take care in these areas at night. The rooms are interesting to … more

This hotel is next to the cathedral and close to a fort. It is in the old part of town but close to the markets and the Docas (Docks) area. The latter is the place to catch river tours and good for eating and drinking. We were told to take care in these areas at night. The rooms are interesting to say the least. Beds are comfortable. Some staff helpful but not all. Breakfast ends at 9. On the first morning we arrived at 08.45 and all the hot food was finished, eventually scrambled eggs arrived. Second morning arrived at 8 and all the hot food arrived at 08.45! Maybe some management needed. 2 lights in our room did not work. Generally needs some maintenance. Nice outside sitting area upstairs.

“Excellent cost-benefit”

The hotel offers an excellent cost-benefit, as you can walk to some of Belem's attractions, like the Ver-o-Peso, Estacao das Docas, and old fort. However, the neighbourhood is not one to be walking around in the dark. The hotel offers all the right amenities, though the wi-fi is not good. Due to my… more

The hotel offers an excellent cost-benefit, as you can walk to some of Belem's attractions, like the Ver-o-Peso, Estacao das Docas, and old fort. However, the neighbourhood is not one to be walking around in the dark. The hotel offers all the right amenities, though the wi-fi is not good. Due to my flight times, I missed out on the breakfast, so I can not comment that. However, the beds were comfortable, and the rooms clean, with AC working. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms and bathroom does need some more attention, as far as renovation, or at least some fresh paint and attention to smaller details, like apparent plumbing, and poorly corrected litches. All in all, good cost benefit, but if you are fussy with details, skip this option. I just spent the night, and walked a little nearby, so it was just right for me.

“Very good location, moderate service”

The hotel is located next to the cathedral de Se and nearby the daily Mercado. We never felt unsecure when leaving the hotel by foot, although we read and were adviced by other tourists that the neighbourhood of the Mercado is not that safe.

The hotel is located next to the cathedral de Se and nearby the daily Mercado. We never felt unsecure when leaving the hotel by foot, although we read and were adviced by other tourists that the neighbourhood of the Mercado is not that safe. The hotel itself has a colonial style and nice lobby (veranda outside with plants) The rooms are clean and have airco. You can not compare it with the big hotel chaines like Ibis, Marriot, but it is good value for money for those who can adapt to other cultures. The only minus is the fact that one person at the reception desk could communicate in english. So if you want to arrange a tour it is pretty difficult to do this via Google translate.
