    The place was great and lovely and the staff were helpful, the location was marvellous down the hill. The whole room was nicely decorated and had a microwave, an individual safe, and climate control. I truly enjoyed sea view. Location: the hotel was short walk to the beach, the bay and other islands and the city centre. Stayed for 2 days and did not want to leave, I will definitely go again next time...

    Breakfast and beautiful view

    The breakfast available every morning was tasty and filling, and the view from the hotel was breathtaking. The location was also convenient to nearby attractions.

    The noise levels were extremely high due to the structure of the building, and the room was not what was advertised. The photos online showed a different view than the actual view we received from our room.

    We loved staying at this hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel facilities werevery comfy and tidy. The breakfast was delicious, with a variety of options to choose from. The location was perfect, as it was within walking distance to both the city center and the beach.

    Nothing to mention.

    This hotel is perfect if you want to be in the city centre or close to the beach. It's just a short walk away from both. The rooms have a private terrace or balcony, which is a nice touch. The staff are very helpful and the breakfast is good.

    No major issues, everything was fine.

    The view from the balcony was fine, overlooking the city. The location was also perfect, just a short walk from the city center. The beds were comfortable and provided a good night's sleep. Despite a few minor drawbacks, I would definitely recommend this hotel for a stay in Mindelo. I had a great experience at Solar Windelo Bed & Breakfast.

    The location of the hotel is great to walk down to the city center or to the beach. You can enjoy the stunning views from the terrace while having breakfast. the staff is friendly and helpful.

    The rooms are advertised as having a sea view, but in reality, they face a satellite or the neighbor's balcony.

    I recently stayed at Solar Windelo in Mindelo for a few days and it was absolutely amazing! The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we felt welcome and comfortable throughout our stay. The view from our spacious room and balcony was breathtaking, overlooking the beautiful harbor and city. The location was perfect, with just a short walk to the waterfront and ferry terminal. We even rented bikes nearby, thanks to the owner's recommendation. The breakfast provided a great selection of yogurt, juice, fresh fruit, delicious coffee, and everything we needed for a tasty toasted sandwich. I highly recommend staying here for a fantastic experience!

    100% Recommend this hotel.

    The location of this hotel is fantastic. It is very close to the city center and just a short walk down to the beach. You will find yourself right in the heart of the action, with easy access to all the sights and sounds of the city.

    All was satisfactory, nothing to complain about.

    The breakfast was very good with fresh fruits and juices, and a tasty omelette. the hotel was located within walking distance from the beach and downtown. We loved the historic building atmosphere.

    Our romantic escape turned out to be a disappointment. the room had a strange smell and the bed was extremely squeaky.
