The Do Colégio Hotel enjoys a privileged location within the historical centre of Ponta Delgada. This 19th century building, once home to the Regional School of Music and Colmeia College, and rich in historical and cultural interest, has been remodelled to create a classically designed, four-star hotel. Many of the building’s original features are still in evidence including stone flooring in the reception, TV lounge and bar.
The hotel’s restaurant, ‘A Colmeia’, is one of the best places to eat on São Miguel. The cooking, by Chef Rodrigo Pereira, is creative and modern and incorporates the best of island traditions and excellent local produce. You can also try Sushi made with local fish.
