Nice terrace, but you have to go around a room that is private where they have their own clothes hanged.
Spacious room next to the beach.
It’s very close to cafeteria and some restaurants.
We really enjoyed some local bars and restaurants.
We really enjoyed some local bars and restaurants. Peter Cafe Sport is a must. We loved a special night out at restaurant Atletico, great meat and local lobster.
There is a small bar next to our hotel called the Ubar that we loved going to the staff was very friendly, the food was good and a great value.

It is an island, therefore the weather is a bit unstable: it rains, drizzles, and the sun shines, all in the same day! The good thing about it is if it rains it's not for long. The temperature is mild 22 - 24 degrees Celsius in first half of July, and there's always a breeze which makes it very comfortable, but you'll need something warm for the evenings.
It's very quiet, not a lot of ppl walking around, but there seemed to be a lot of cars going, more than ppl on the pavements.
Eating and drinking: the majority of restaurants and bars seem to be quite upmarket and tourist tailored (with matching prices) and they're on the seafront, by the marina and basically in the town centre. But you can find more affordable places (where the food is actually more delicious and the portions bigger), you just have to look for them as they are situated away from the seafront, in the back streets.
Porto Pim beach is great, you can walk there, it's not far from centre and water is calm and warm.
Overall we enjoyed our stay, there are whale and dolphin watching trips and other activities, such as snorkelling and deep sea diving.
The locals are very friendly.

Don't just stay in Horta, specially if you have a rental car.
Purchase ferry tickets for yourself and for the car and visit two other islands of the archipelago - The Pico Island (ferry stop: Madalena) and the St. Jorge Island (ferry stop: Velas)
In Horta, visit the Caldeira do Cabeço Gordo, a volcano cone. If you're there on a clear sunny day, you can even hike around the volcano cone.
Visit the Capelinhos Volcano Museum - a real treat for geology lovers.
Our favorite beach was 'Praia do Almoxarife'

Horta offers so
Much.
Horta offers so
Much. It’s a great point to start exploring the island as well as the neighboring island. The harbor is very special to anyone with an interest of boats. The harbor full of yachts on their way across the Atlantic.
The town has several great restaurants and watering holes. The many streets are fun to explore and the neighborhood offers great hiking.
Peter Sport Cafe is a must as well as a stroll in n the marina watching all the paintings made by boaters heading home to Europe

A wonderful hidden island for people who like the silence, the hiking and the mountains. Beware that the supermarkets have few things.
Azores are expensive to live, because of few available homes and the prices raise up.

Loved the old city...however, construction was taking place which made getting around by car a little confusing. Loved walking around the waterfront and seeing the famous marina as well as the artwork created by mariners. Shopping in the local stores was a good experience with prices that you don't feel taken advantage of. Shopping in the city's Mercado was also a nice experience. Trying new restaurants around the city was also a good experience. While there, rent a car...best way to get around as public transportation is not regular or abundant. Also, try to visit the neighboring island of Pico on the ferry and spend a few days there...lots to see.

The house is located on a hill and has a beautiful small garden, overlooking the city of Horta and the ocean. It is big and spacious, has all the amenities one might need for a pleasant stay and gives a home feeling. The host Marco was very nice and helpful and helped us even with small inconveniences. I definitely recommend the Family house to anyone who would like to feel the hospitality and comfort of staying in an island in the Atlantic Ocean.
The room was extremely spacious and it was possible to cook something if necessary. When I booked it I thought it was only a room but they were all small apartments with kitchenettes. The hotel is situated by a quiet road and has fantastic views to the sea. There is a snack-bar downstairs where you can have burgers or other quick bites. There's a car parking and it's fast to drive to Horta. A nice place to stay near Horta.
The hostel is on the top floor of a hotel which is a really impressive, well restored building. There's plenty of space in the bedrooms and communal areas. The outdoor balcony faces directly onto the harbour so you can watch the boats come in and out.
Excellent hotel with friendly staff very conveniently located near the main harbor in Horta. Very good breakfast with a vast collection, good bar, good and quick room service, excellent staff at the reception who took care of all questions we had.
Unique rooms completely immersed in nature.
Good breakfast service with a well assorted selection of food.
Location fairly close to the airport and the city of Horta, with many attractions no more than 20/30 minutes away by car.
