Excellent Staff
I was early and I was able to store my bags. Staff incredibly friendly and available at a phone. Helped get a taxi when I stranded myself on the far side of the island. I don’t recommend getting stranded but know that they will help. Clean place and everything I needed. Except AC in my room. The fan they provided helped. Would stay again.

We were notified a few days prior to our arrival that we would be moved to Casa Das Arcadas because Casa Ateneu was being renovated. Given the state of the site were Casa Ateneu is located upon our arrival in the city, these renovations had obviously started prior to our booking. We found that telling us only a week prior to our arrival, when it was just simplest to go to another of their location, lack transparency on the part of the owner. The room was spacious and modern. The location was central, in close proximity of main attractions. Beware, there is nobody onsite and the check in was unnecessarily complicated. We were sent the main door code, and then were asked to call them on whatsapp. But inside the hotel, no indication of an internet password. We had to ask another traveler to get the sheet from their bedroom. Finally, as there is nobody onsite, you rely on other travellers' good judgement to keep quiet at night. There was a party in the shared kitchen/dining room until midnight one night, and a rowdy group of friends who decided to have a post-drinking snack at 4 am on another night. Three of the rooms are just next to that shared area. So if you want a quiet stay, not necessarily the best place for you.

Upon checking in and checking out the experience was really convenient and wonderful. We arrived much earlier than check in time but were permitted to leave our luggage in the staff room for safe keeping. For check in the entry code and key were so easy and quick. The room and common area were very clean! Not a spec of dust. The bed comfy and space was cute. The best part of my experience was the service and kindness from their main office staff. They are so responsive to any questions and on our last evening we were very worried about finding a place to print our boarding pass and getting a taxi to the airport at 6am so we stopped in to ask for help. The gentleman was so kind and printed and dropped off our passes to our room and arranged a taxi pick up for the morning. This really was so wonderful and like having hotel concierge service. Thank you so much for your help.

Palatial and unique
We had an excellent experience at Casa Ateneu. Room #7 is palatial and comfortable, and the feeling of the whole establishment was one of ease and serenity. It is in the heart of Ponta Delgada, with restaurants, the harbor, and the farmer's market only steps away. The only issue, as others have commented, is that room #7 has a periodic problem of a sewer smell coming from the old pipes of the building. We got used to it, and it didn't bother us too much, but it might be an issue for those sensitive to smells. Otherwise, we were completely satisfied with our visit.
