Guest Reviews
- Isabelle (9/5): - Bien placé, beaucoup de charme, petite piscine, personnel sympathique, petit déjeuner copieux. Chambre côté rue. Salle de bains minuscule.
- Julia (9/5): Casa muy acogedora en el centro - Está todo muy limpio, una habitación muy bonita y cómoda. El personal muy agradable, nos han preparado un catering con el desayuno. La ubicación súper céntrica. La piscina un poco sucia, no nos bañamos
- Ana (10/5): -
- Marisa (8/5): - A casa em si e a localização A discordância de informação que nos foi dada. Na véspera foi-nos permitido fazer um check out tardio. De manhã, quando estávamos a sair para dar uma volta, fomos abordados para deixarmos o quarto. Check out 11-11:30 ( nem hora fixa…)
- Koen (9/5): -
- corinne (10/5): Excellent séjour - La gentillesse du personnel et équivalent à ce très joli endroit très paisible au milieu de la ville de Mindelo
Merci beaucoup pour votre gentillesse et disponibilité
- Olivier (8/5): Agréable et bonne situation - Agréable hôtel de style colonial dans le centre ville.
Copieux petit déjeuner pris auprès de la piscine. Faible luminosité dans la petite salle de bain, pas de place pour y poser ses affaires. parfois peu d'eau chaude.
- Nathalie (10/5): -
- Christophe (10/5): - L’accueil et l’emplacement
- Adeline (10/5): -
- bruno (6/5): - Petit déjeuner très correct Peu de lumière dans les chambres
Elles sont disposées autour d un patio et du coup on entend beaucoup les voisins
- Pierre (8/5): - L'immeuble et les chambres de style Colonial, position en ville
- Olaf (8/5): -
- MMateus (9/5): - The rooms are big and comfortable, the common space is very nice with a small pool and also a terrace. The breakfast was good and the location is great.
- Zeina (8/5): - Lumières trop faibles
- guenaelle (8/5): Hôtel de charme, accueil sympathique. - L accueil et le patio avec piscine. Le bruit et le manque de fenêtre pour les chambres sur le patio.
- Erwin (9/5): - Heel mooi hotel en top ontbijt. Helemaal in het centrum. Om de boot van 8:00 te halen zou het ontbijt beter een kwartier vroeger geserveerd worden.
- Fanny (10/5): Une nuit charmante dans cet endroit magnifique - Le charme de la maison
La gentillesse de la stagiaire qui nous a trouvé un resto pour le soir et un chauffeur pour le lendemain
Le petit-déjeuner autour de la piscine Rien.
- Maria João (10/5): -
- pierre (8/5): - Rien à dire. Bien placé. Super petit déjeuner inclus. Pensez à économiser l'eau chaude car on est sur l'énergie solaire thermique stockée ds un ballon d'eau chaude pour tout l'hôtel. Petite piqûre de rappel de sobriété pour ceux qui arrivent d'Europe
- Christophe (10/5): je le conseille - l'accueil vraiment à l'écoute parle français décor sympa le patio permet des temps calmes tout en étant au centre de la ville
- Yann (7/5): - Gentillesse du personnel, bon accueil.
Literie comfortable
Case coloniale avec son charme Chambre sur la rue bruyante.
Le paiement se fait uniquement en cash et vous l’apprenez à votre arrivée !
- Maxime (10/5): -
- Louise (8/5): Casa bien située - Très bien situé à Mindelo. Excellent petit-déjeuner. Personnel sympathique.
- Marleen (9/5): Heel prettig verblijf in een charmant hotel in de binnenstad van Mindelo - Ontzettend mooi en charmant hotel. Wij verbleven in een kamer voor 3 personen met aangrenzend een badkamer. De kamer was zeer ruim met comfortabele bedden. Het hotel heeft een zwembad op de binnenpatio (kan wellicht wat lawaaierig zijn voor de kamers die hieraan grenzen) en een dakterras. Ontbijt was inbegrepen! Onze badkamer had geen douchescherm of -gordijn dus de vloer werd nogal nat en daardoor glad, maar dat kan zo verholpen worden.
- Roxane (9/5): Parfait pour l'endroit - Bel endroit correspondant bien à Mindelo Seul souci : le micro-lavabo
- Marie (10/5): -
- Marie (10/5): -
- Gildas (10/5): - Nous n’avons malheureusement pas pu séjourner dans cette merveilleuse maison pour une histoire d’avion qui ne pouvait atterrir à cause de la brume sèche, mais le personnel a été très réactif et surtout très compréhensif. Merci pour votre bienveillance. À une prochaine fois.
- Alina (7/5): -

- Christophe (10/5): - Parfait à tous points de vue, du charme de la maison, à la gentillesse de l’équipe en passant par le petit déjeuner 5 étoiles et les petites attentions pour les hôtes
- Krista (8/5): Sfeervol verblijf in Mindelo - Prima locatie, in het centrum en dicht bij de haven. Prachtig gebouw, met binnentuin en rooftopterras. mooie ruime kamer en service en hulp van de medewerkers was geweldig. De kamer was nog al donker, iets meer licht zou praktischer zijn.
- Petr (10/5): Vřele doporučuji všem, tohle ubytování vás uchvátí a vezme vás sebou do dob koloniálního času. Mají tam skvělé snídaně. - Ten koloniální dům byl naprosto výjimečný. Ta atmosféra uvnitř byla skvělá. Nic podobného jsem ještě nikde neviděl. Personál byl super, při odjezdu nám zařídili i odvoz na letiště. Postel měla super matraci. Za celou cestu po Kapverdách sem se nikde tak dobře nevyspal. Opravdu úžasné místo. V koupelně úplně neodtékala dobře voda, takže když se tam vysprchovali 4 lidi, celá místnost se proměnila v bazén. Holt stará budova má i své mouchy, ale to byla jen taková drobnost.
- anais (9/5): - Établissement bien situé, personnel très accueillant, ambiance très sympa !
- Gabriele (10/5): Una casa che profuma di un antico legno di tek edi atmosfera coloniale - Camera perfetta, colazione ottima e yogurt da loro prodotto eccellente
- Grégory (8/5): - Hôtel assez charmant, bien placé. Propreté de la piscine.
- Yann (9/5): Un très beau séjour à Mindelo - Un personnel très accueillant, une suite familiale confortable et un emplacement top.
La petite piscine dans le patio est très sympa aussi. La chambre donne sur la rue qui est un peu bruyante.
- Sandra (10/5): - Super schöne Einrichtung. Sehr zentral in Mindelo. Sehr sympathisches Personal.
- Luca (10/5): - Strutture is very beautiful and typical. You can’t find better at this price. Staff is amazing Nothing
- KARINE (8/5): En famille avec 2 enfants de 15 et 12 ans, parfait quelques jours pour visiter le centre à pied et profiter de la plage. - L’emplacement plein centre,
La propreté des chambres,
L’accueil et la gentillesse du personnel,
Le petit déjeuner copieux et correct. La chambre côté rue très bruyante avec les aboiements de chien (prévoir boules quies)
- christelle (9/5): Un havre de paix au cœur de Mindelo - Charmante maison coloniale
Le patio avec la piscine est très agréable
Les chambres sont grandes et spacieuses
Petit déjeuner très bon
Emplacement central près de la rue de Lisboa La rue craint un peu ou du moins donne cette impression.
- Mélody (9/5): - Maison charmante et typique. Bien située Prévoir le fait qu’on ne peut payer qu’en espèces
- Gertie (8/5): Fijn verblijf in oude centrum - Goede lokatie in het oude centrum in een origineel koloniaal gebouw. Dicht bij verschillende restaurantjes. Strand wat verder, maar ook te lopen.
Leuk klein zwembadje. Meer een plungepool, maar wel lekker. Fijn bed. De badkamer is heel erg klein en het wasbakje voor tanden poetsen, handen wassen echt veel te klein en onhandig.
- Emma (8/5): Really lovely stay - Lovely staff, good breakfast and nice rooms Only annoying thing was needing to pay in cash
- Pieter (10/5): Oasis in Mindelo centre - Our 4th hotel in Cabo Verde but the first with complementary bottle of water in the room, which we really liked. Spatious, clean, quiet... good breakfast and right in city centre.
- Florian (4/5): will not return and will not recommend - Kind of OK. Courtyard space quite limited Room was too dark (black painted floor grey walls, black painted ceiling; very limited lighting) hard to read. bathroom was a major diappointment (300 x 90 cm = too narrow; solar water heating not worki g well, lack of capacity it seems; no natural ventilation).
- Sheetal (9/5): Superb - Very cute place , super clean and sweet staff
- James (8/5): Very good -
- Stein Erik (10/5): - Excellent
- Jamie (10/5): Great location, great welcome and comfortable stay. - The staff at reception were wonderful. Always going the extra mile and offering exceptionally kind, accommodating service. The rooms were comfortable and clean. Great central location! The rooms were a little dark. It would be nice, at breakfast, if they told you that you could order eggs. We didn't learn until we asked on day 3.
- Vincent (9/5): Superb - It’s style! And the very friendly staff!
- Antoine (8/5): Very good -
- Ma0sm (9/5): Cute hotel with friendly staff, great location and a pool - Excellent location.
Beautiful decor, old wooden style, very cosy.
Helpful and friendly staff.
Let us check in early.
Nice to have a pool in a place so central.
Good breakfast, multiple options.
Comfortable bed and good cotton sheets.
Encourage water ecology in handily explained signs.
Excellent location for exploring Mindelo.
Held on to our luggage after we checked out.
Fast internet, good signal in the room. The pool is quite overlooked by the rooms, and quite small. It looked quite clean but we ended up not using it in the end.
- Muñoz (9/5): We loved it - We loved the place, nice room, nice breakfast, the host is very welcoming and the pool is a plus.
- Pablo (8/5): A great value for money place with great staff - Super clear, attentive staff, good central location The bathroom flooded with the shower
- Beatriz (10/5): Exceptional -
- Chris (9/5): Superb -
- Aline (9/5): Superb -
- Stefan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Moulla (10/5): nice stay - nice breakfast , very helpful staff , beautiful and clean location
- Marie (9/5): Superb - La situation en centre ville
La gentillesse du Personnel
- Marco (9/5): Superb - The staff were very friendly and helpful. They sent a taxi to pick us up from the airport and Veronico, our taxi driver, happened to be a tour organiser on Sao Vicente and on Santo Antão. He was so knowledgeable and made our 3-day stay (between those two islands) perfect. We had time to go on two hikes and still discover Sao Vicente.
+++ The beds were exceptionally comfortable
- The (9/5): Comfortable old skool but ultra modern stay in city centre - Comfortable old skool but ultra modern stay in city centre, a few interesting streets from the centre. We only stayed a night, but that was fine, huge festival going on in the city centre, so we joined in and had such fun. Room large, cool and understated style, bathroom fine, hot water etc, all good, Linen all fresh and plenty of it. Staff laid back, breakfast the usual, but enough of it, and the pool hidden in the centre of the house a decadent indulgence after the dusty Mindelo streets. we only had the one key to the room, two ( one each) would have been helpful, but a small moan for an otherwise fine stay.
- Suzana (10/5): Great value - Close to everything and staff super friendly.
- Murielle (8/5): Very nice place to stay to visit Mindelo and Soa Vicente. - The place is stylish, very well located, beds are comfortable, staff is very helpful. Nothing we did not like but one point to notice. One thing to know is that credit cards are not accepted and it was not very clear on Booking. It ended up being tricky and unsafe to withdraw cash on our last day. It could be clearer.
- Mafalda (9/5): Superb - The hotel is a beautiful colonial house with a patio at the center and a small pool.
The staff is welcoming and the kitchen ladies are really nice!
The room was very comfortable and clean.
At the last day, as we were leaving really early they were really kind and prepared us a breakfast sooner than scheduled. Though the staff was really nice and kind, they weren't truly helpful in giving us information on where to go, where to eat or what to see. They have some flyers and books at the reception but they would not provide you with many tips, even if you ask for it.
- Anu (8/5): Very good -
- Christelle (8/5): Very good - Very nice breakfast, very friendly staff and helpful, ideal location in the city center, close to everything, very nice lovely pool, nice hotel with lots of character. Quite dark rooms and by a hot day, the fans are not always enough to cool the room. Credit card not accepted.
- Jonas (10/5): Great location, beautiful house, wonderful people - The people were sooooooo nice
- Unrith (10/5): Exceptional - Great stay at Casa Colonial ! The staff was lovely and super helpful.
- Nathalie (9/5): Superb -
- Nathalie (9/5): Superb -
- Carsten (9/5): one of the best choices to stay in Mindelo - accommodation in historical building
- Anne (8/5): atmospheric hotel in central location - charming old colonial house with lots of atmosphere. Fairly good breakfast. beautiful plunge pool in central courtyard. large friendly cat! helpful staff. lots of books to borrow from a small library. lumpy uncomfortable pillows on bed.
- Anna (9/5): Superb -
- Clara (7/5): Good -
- Janine (9/5): Old town charm in central location with friendly staff. -
- Eli (8/5): Very good -
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Au top !
Tout etait parfait, de la chambre, au petit patio..du petit dejeuner, à la gentilesse du personnel !
Foncez y !
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Non mi è piaciuta nella struttura il bagno, la mancanza di un piccolo frigorifero... e il collegamento Wi-Fi.
- John (8/5): Colonial House B&B in good location. - Nice colonial era house that has been converted to a B&B. Rooms are all on inner courtyard with a pool. Hotel is in a good location. Very convenient to all attractions. Rooms don't have air conditioning, only fans. Had to pay in cash when checking out.
- Denis (8/5): - Très belle vue sur les montagnes
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Het hotel is niet boor toeristen die van comfort houden. Alles is minimaal: de kamer, de badkamer, het zwembad. Wij hadden de ongelooflijke pech dat er veel lawaai was wegens een nieuwbouw op een belendend perceel. Er is ook een kat. Ik ben daar allergisch voor, maar wist dat niet op voorhand.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Nice place. A sort of boutique hotel.
Good decor, high ceilings, good breakfast, nice staff.
Could hear neighbours' house through a ventilation window, but not a big prob
- Morten (10/5): - Super hyggelig hotel
- Verified traveler (10/5): Casa colonial Mindelo - Great place. Wonderful staff, good location and nice breakfasts.
- Marcelo (6/5): Nice simple hostal with local people - Nice hostal, simple with friendly people. Staff could be a little better informed on what to do, attractions, dining/going out and rooms have no A/C (which is fine), but the fan could be stronger as well as the shower could be better designed to keep water only around the shower and not the whole bath - anyway, it is a 2.5 star classified; so you get what you pay - still, clean and great location!
- Verified traveler (6/5): nicht das was ich erwartet hab - Hatten Doppelzimmer mit Frühstück!
Frühstück sehr einfach !
Zimmer Dunkles einfachstes betonloch , ebenso das 1 m2 Bad ! Keinerlei Komfort weder wifi noch tv , keine Klima , das Geld so leider nicht wert
- Verified traveler (10/5): Super séjour - Nous sommes restés 7 nuits, tout était propre, le ménage fait quotidiennement, l'accueil était impeccable, le petit déjeuner très bon et copieux, la piscine propre
Rien a redire nous avons été ravis
- Juliette (10/5): Parfaitement situé, charmant et personnel attentif - Merveilleux séjour au sein de cet établissement absolument charmant. À taille humaine, presque familial. Personnel très attentif. Parfaitement situé au centre-ville. Un coup de cœur !
- Per-Göran (10/5): - Ett hotell beläget mitt i centrum med mycket typisk prägel av den lokala kulturen. Inget 5 stjärnigt men ön har en mer avslappnat stil på bekvämligheter och vinner mycket på personlighet. Trevlig frukost med bröd/pålägg/färska frukter. Rekommenderas varmt.
- Eric (10/5): Mooie plek - Zeer leuke plek, kamers achterin beduidend meer rustig dan straatkant, heerlijk ontbijt, zwembad zou beter plaatsmaken voor betere patio
- JEAN PAUL (8/5): Une étape indispensable pour le Cap Vert ! - Trois jours de visite à Sao Vicente,l'une des 10 îles de l'archipel du Cap Vert !Mindelo est un excellent spot pour visiter,apprécier la gastronomie locale et écouter la morna...
- Michael (10/5): Quiet Guest House, Central to everything - Wonderful classic guest house in central Mindelo. Walking distance to everything, including the Ferry which is about 15 minutes away. Quiet location and wonderful central pool to cool off after a hot walk. Rooftop sitting area if you want to see the views.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Hôtel plein de charme - L'hôtel est situé au cœur de la ville. Il est plein de charme avec sa façade verte. La chambre n'est pas en reste avec son magnifique parquet et ses lumières tamisées.
La petite cour intérieure est propice à la détente même si le jour de notre visite elle était vidée (ce qui était d'ailleurs assez dangereux car non balisé).
Seul bémol: la douche froide comme dans bien des hôtels au Cap Vert ☺️
- Verified traveler (10/5): Sfeervol mooi en centraal gelegen - Iedereen is super vriendelijk en behulpzaam in dit prachtig gerestaureerde oude huis dat is omgebouwd tot boutique hotel. De prijs kwaliteit verhouding is prima, de kleine kamers zijn wel echt klein, maar voor een beetje extra heb je een mooie grote kamer. Toen wij er waren was het zwembad niet in gebruik.
- Peter en Els (10/5): Great boutique hotel, go there!!! - Casa Colonial is the place to stay when in Mindello, Sao Vincente. Located near the port and the Presidential Palace in a quiet street. Its a little gem in lively Mindello. Beautiful rooms with their own bathrooms. A courtyard with a little pool to cool down. Beach chairs to chill and benches to write your memoires on or have the extended breakfast they serve each day with bananas from their own tree. Samira and her staff is absolutely lovely and they will go out of their way to make you feel at home, yet they are invisable enough to guarantee privacy. A roof terrass to retreat in the warmth of middays. Trust me this a the place to be when you are lucky enough to get a room. No airco but a ceiling fan that does the job together with the louvered doors to the balcony overlooking the ccourtyard.
