"This is a great hotel at which to spend a few days discovering Praia. Very walkable to transportation, the beach, some decent restaurants, and the sights. Though the breakfast buffet was consistently good, for any other meal lack of attention to service at the restaurant and bar meant an almost do-it-yourself experience. A late check out option (subject to room availability) was awesome for my 1 am flight! Very helpful front desk staff."
"What a wonderful piece of heaven. The staff was absolutely wonderful, the food, service, cleanliness… I can go on and on and any compliment would still not do it justice. I highly recommend staying there and will certainly stay there when I’m back."
"An Outstanding Stay with Truly Wonderful People!
My stay at the Barceló Hotel was exceptional, thanks above all to its wonderful staff. Everyone was remarkably competent, professional, attentive, and genuinely kind. What made my experience especially memorable was the beautiful surprise they prepared for my birthday—a delicious cake accompanied by lovely drinks and heartfelt wishes. Such thoughtful gestures demonstrate that true hospitality comes from the heart. The team made me feel genuinely welcomed, appreciated, and cared for throughout my stay. Excellent service is important, but excellent people make all the difference. My sincere gratitude to the entire Barceló team for creating such a warm and unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!"
"Praia Confort is conveniently located right in the heart of the city, within a 5min walk of the beach and several restaurants. The room was on the small side, but the beautiful mountain views from the balcony made up for it. The bed and pillows were comfortable, and breakfast was decent.
Unfortunately, the service was a bit of a mixed bag. I found the male staff friendly and helpful, while my interactions with the female staff were less welcoming. The bathroom was also quite small, and the soap supply was insufficient, I had to ask for more just to take a shower. The biggest downside was the Wi-Fi. I’m not sure if the connection was poor because I was staying on the 7th floor, but it worked much better in the lobby than in my room. Overall, the hotel’s central location, proximity to the beach, and mountain views were definite highlights. However, improvements to the Wi-Fi, bathroom amenities, and customer service would make the stay more enjoyable."
"I didn’t have a universal charger and they provided one to me right away. There was a water leak in my bathroom and I informed them and they switched my room within 15 minutes of knowing about the issue. They also called a taxi for me at 4:00 AM and the front desk spoke clear English, if that’s a concern for you. They are a great staff, have great wifi connection and have water, and other free goodies that make your stay more welcoming. Yes, welcoming is the word I’d use for this hotel, especially the staff."
"We just stayed one night between island hopping . This delightful hotel in an older but beautifully maintained building is central on pedestrian only street . Dinner choices, shopping and groceries are all nearby . Live music entertained us on the lovely patio that looks over the street . You are about 10 min taxi ride from airport and cost is 1500 CVE (about 15€). For great coffee and ambiance including live music don’t miss Cafe Sophia."
"I was a little disappointed when I thought the room I booked had an ocean view and it did not. The building is nice, clean and staffs were friendly and courteous. Tiles on floor need to be replaced since some had cracks in them and some parts of the building can use some fresh paints. The Buffett breakfast was good."
