Incredible staying. Mainly, of course, because of the energizing experience to spend the night at the mountain and explore a bit First and its cliffwalk without the so many visitors along the year. But our experience was even better with the so warming and cordial service from the staff, specially Domingos, who has been incredible with us and my daughter. Will never forget the time spent there.
nothing to comment !!

Great location! Lovely to be on the top of the mountain when everyone else has left on the last cable car. Staff were all very pleasant and helpful.
No curtains in the bedroom so sleeping was difficult. Lots of flies in the dining room that really made eating there unpleasant - I think I heard the waiter telling someone that the property was being sprayed the next day. Set menu quite expensive for a very basic meal, though second night was much better than first so we may just have been unlucky with the first night.

Hard to beat location - the opportunity to be on the mountain once the crowds have left for the day is worth the price. Super clean and convenient. Staff are warm and friendly. More like a great hostel than a hotel.

The beds and the room was a bit poor.
