The location of this guesthouse is right center in the city, and it has both a reading lounge, pantry and balcony for those looking to relax or work. The staff were also friendly. We had luck in having the available room at the highest floor, overlooking the marina and Pico. Definitely would return and stay here again.

Very nicely designed house. Has everything you need if you want to cook. There is a little bakery around the corner. Kayaks to use if you wish. Tiago walked us to the accommodation from the Naturalist base and gave us loads of recommendations for things to do in Faial which was extremely helpful and allowed us to get the most from our short stay.
Featuring free WiFi throughout the property, Porto Pim Bay is located in Horta, just steps from the beach. All apartments include a flat-screen TV.

The apartment was comfortable, well decorated and perfect location walking distance to downtown, restaurants, beach. It was fairly quiet. The hostess was accommodating to our late arrival.

I loved everything about my stay. Lucia and her husband are the sweetest people ever with the biggest hearts. Lucia shared a wealth of information regarding the island, the history, and the wonderful shops and restaurants in town. I had eggs from their chickens, the best honey ever from their bees, fresh bread daily, various fruits from their garden, and so much more. The house is so beautiful, comfy, and cozy.. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to hike and explore the countryside as I planned because of the extensive rain, so I was so glad I was in a place I truly enjoyed being. I wish I had booked more days there but will definitely return.

Perfect location, walkable to most things in town, great views of the sea and stars. Comfy apartment and private bath with AC and heat. Private, well-stocked kitchen. Clean. Communicative host.

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.

Island more quiet than Sao Miguel, felt more centered around the sea. A good mix of sea and land. A few good walks along the shore or around a caldera or inland. Unusual landscapes. The roads are very good compared to Sao Miguel.

We have now visited Horta 13 times in eight years, and will continue to visit in coming months/years. For a small city in the middle of the North Atlantic, Horta has a very welcoming feel, and is an ideal base for people wanting to visit the central group of Azorean Islands.
It's easy to walk around, and the rest of the island of Faial is accessible through day tours, e.g. with Azores Experiences who we would highly recommend. There are whale and dolphin watching trips from March - October, together with walking tours, Caldeira descent (which requires a formal guide and cannot be done alone), and a visit to the volcano and interpretation centre at Capelinhos is a must.
There are a good number of excellent restaurants (Atletico, Medalhas, Genuino, Taberna do Pim, etc.) and the Oceanic bar and restaurant (their barbecue is superb) to try locally caught fish and local beef. For a good value breakfast or lunch, there are plenty of small cafes (e.g. Cafe Silva, behind Peter's Cafe) which offer great hospitality.
If the weather is good and you fancy a relaxing day, there is also the beach at Porto Pim, which is used regularly by visitors and locals alike.

Nice little layd back town with astounding views of the islands Faial and Pico with their different and mystifying volcanoes, over the ever present calming ocean sights and sounds. Friendly locals serve all kinds of traditional and popular dishes and snacks, and offer quality lodging depending on your wishes and wallet. With a rental car, taxi or public transport it's easy to visit interesting geological, natural and cultural locations spread around the island. There is a lot of time and space there to come to yourself or interact with the local community.
We appreciated the warm welcome and easy check in, with keyless building and room access. The rooms look out over the harbor, and the hotel could not be in a nicer spot. Free parking was plentiful, and there is a lot behind the hotel as well.
Nereida is perfect for self catering. You have a kitchenette in the room, plus a fully equipped kitchen in the common room. So you can cook a bigger meal in there if you want. It is also close to several good restaurants and a market.
We would recommend it to anyone for sure.
Very friendly and hospital host, the location is in a beautiful and quiet area of Horta, the views from the room are exceptional, the room is of good size and very clean and the bed is very comfortable and the facilities and amenities are new and of high quality. Street parking is just outside the building. The common area with a nice kitchen and dinning area is a great plus. With so much to offer this place is such a great value for money.
Beautiful house and garden with a small pool, breakfast possible outside on the terrace, included local products like cheese from Sao Jorge, different sorts of bread, fresh Orange juice, egg variations on demand, fresh fruit salad, yoghurt...such a stunning and quiet place in a kind atmosphere, approx. 15-20 min walk to Horta Marina etc., located on a small hill.
Vista do Canal is an extremely well presented apartment with every amenity that you could want. The elevated location gives outstanding views of Pico from the balcony, and the owners are the most accommodating and lovely people. The property is very close to a supermarket which is useful and the owners very generous welcome pack was fantastic.
After having stayed at the Terra Nostra Garden Hotel, it was a bit of a shock to find out Hotel Do Canal was owned by the same company. It looked and felt so different. Staff never really smiled or made eye contact. The uniform looked very casual borderline unprofessional. The breakfast was not great either. The room and view was fine.
The apartment’s location couldn’t be better. It was near cafés, restaurants, and all the places you might visit in Horta. You would only need a rental car if visiting outside Horta. However, there’s a good bus system. The host was available and flexible. We plan to stay there again.
The size of the rooms and layout of the apartment made it so everyone could have quiet when they needed it. The apartment was well equipped and the location made our stay extra special. The outdoor patio and garden gave us a place to relax when at home, but still be outside.
The hotel is in a strategic position at Horta.
Highlight of the structure is the swimming pool with a panoramic view on Pico volcano, very nice during sunrise and Sunset.
Everything in the hotel works well, especially the rich and diversified breakfast.
The best place to stay not only in Horta but in the entire Azores, trust me on this one. Super nice, comfortable, modern, extremely clean... Great central location. Staff is wonderful, helpful, kind and friendly. I'm definitely returning soon!
The accomodation was large, clean and with a beautiful view of nerby Pico mountain.
The centre of Horta was well accessible by walking distance.
We appreciatted calm and helpful attitude of our host as well as location and nature around.
Everything. Beautifully maintained hotel and surrounding grounds. Gracious and friendly staff. The location was great within walking distance to center of Horta. The view from the room looking across to Pico island was spectacular!
Centrally located in Horta, a walk away from harbor and ferry terminal. Great views to Pico.
Most comfortable beds of the Açores.
No need to rent a car, you can take a guided Taxi Tour for 80 €
The location of this charming apartment can not be beat. Located in the Porto Pim Bay Area of Horta is a perfect place to enjoy Horta and everything magical on Faial.
This hotel is right on the harbour in a great location. Everything about it was good for us. Great breakfast, comfortable room and pleasant staff. Secure parking.
