Best hotel in its entire city

Wonderful hotel in a wonderful location overlooking the city and the city's beach and port. Friendly, efficient staffing team. Thanks especially for arrangements to pick my up at the port where I had arrived on a boat from another island.

Edificio Magico ... is Magical!

Edificio Magico was the perfect introduction for me to Tarrafal de São Nicolau Island. The entire team were so professional, and my apartment was perfect, inside and outside on the balcony with its gorgeous panoramic view. The location on the beach in the center of the city was ideal - with easy walks to restaurants, shopping, museums, stadiums and of course along the coast itself. Thanks also for providing suggestions for hiking and touring Sao Nicolau Island.

Nous avons apprécié l'accueil, l'attention du personnel et du propriétaire de l'hôtel. Joli balcon fleuri avec vue sur la mer. Petit déjeuner copieux et raffiné. Sérieux et ponctualité du chauffeur de la navette. Rien de négatif, une adresse à recommander !

Buen hotel y buen personal.

Buena acogida por el propietario Sr Gabriel, y el ayudante Epson. En todo momento nos han asesorado, y ayudado a disfrutar de la isla. Buen desayuno. Y destacar Epson como buen guia de viaje. Agradecer a Gabriel realizar el checkout mas tarde a las 13.30 h. Buena ubicacion. Sin duda repetiriamos. Gracias a todo el personal.
