Reviews of MS Vila Nova

A very serviceable hotel that provides a lot of value for the price point. Very good location, everything you need.

Reception was very helpful - room bright and well furnished - good view for watching airplanes. Handy location if you want to take public bus to travel in Sao Miguel.  https://www.trip.com/w/y7Gkld7pxS2 Recommend to visit nearby (free) António Borges Garden. https://www.trip.com/w/9ZGqTw5pxS2

The staff were very friendly, helpful and kind. The facilities were quite nice inside. The outside of the building looks a little tired, but much nicer inside. Our room was adequate. There were stains on the carpet and no working fan in the bathroom. The heating/cooling was turned off in the room with the controls nonfunctional. The beds are very firm. The rooms are a little small but it was fine for us. The in-house buffet restaurant was very handy, and the breakfast was delicious every morning. For the price, we would stay here again.

Nice hotel, close to the airport, breakfast was delicious with good variety, bed was comfortable. Only thing I didn't like is a strong smell of air freshener everywhere, especially in a hallway.

Close to the airport, but still one has to take a cab in order to get there, especially at night when there's no public transportation available. All in all, suitable for both solo trip as well as one night stay.

The hotel is conveniently located with a great view over the harbour and sea. I guess the low overflying planes might be a problem, but I wear earplugs when away anyhow! Quite dramatic and not an issue for me. Reception staff were very helpful, as were the restaurant staf esp. Bim and his colleague - I really felt welcomed, though first night it was chaotic with two many people (coaces?) trying to get fed in a relatively small dining room. The buffet style I liked, less choice for me was good! I especially liked the soups and fish. Overall. I would recommend.

The breakfast is decent and not expensive. The bed is comfortable however there were no TV programmes in English language. I think at least a news channel in English should be made available.

We were very happy with the service. The receptionists were all very helpful, especially Bruno, and the room and beds were very comfortable too. When we requested a mini fridge, they efficiently provided us with one. The only thing we didn't like was the fact that we, as hotel guests, still had to pay €4 to park our car inside. This should have been free for hotel guests.

Super nice Recommend! Will come back for sure!

Well located and fairly clean. Breakfast is good. Airplane noise can be bothersome in the morning.

Good hotel. Great location, close to the city center. Cozy small hotel. Beautiful view from the window to the ocean and the port. You shouldn't expect much from the breakfast, it's not above average. I liked the hotel itself, we'll come back to it again.

It is within walking distance to the central area. The room has a balcony and the bedding is clean. The style is relatively old and the soundproofing is not good. You can hear the snoring of the neighbors next door. I did not use the parking lot and swimming pool, so I will not comment.

Great location! Friendly staff! Good breakfast!

We loved the pool, and the breakfast is fantastic, featuring regional products. There was one day when the room wasn't cleaned. Overall, we loved it; it's really nice.
