I stayed here for 2 nights while waiting for my next flight to go to another island. I'm glad I found the discounted rate via trip.com because I would have been upset at paying full price for this hotel. The pictures are out of date. The room was small but clean. The shower head was loose and wouldn't stay up properly. The rooftop was outdated. The pool was small and hadn't been cleaned in a while. Dirt and debris were visible in the pool.
Breakfast was okay. A decent selection of food items. Staff wasn't super friendly. Decent stay for the discounted rate but not worth $100/night.
Of the four hotels I stayed at during my time in Cape Verde, this is the closest to offering a 4-star experience, and providing everything advertised on this platform.
The staff is courteous, friendly, and always on hand to offer a relaxing experience. Due to the convex shape of the structure, the rooms come in a variety of configurations, offering some variety even with repeat stays like mine. The breakfast buffet is pretty decent, with a good offering of options from cold to warm, sweet to savory. Every window offers a breathtaking view of the Atlantic and the rest of the island, and its well-maintained outdoor pool offers a welcome tease if you don't feel ready to brave the beach just yet.
That said, there are a few limitations: while the varying layouts offer good variety for multiple stays, you may find yourself feeling shortchanged if you pay the same amount for a smaller room than the traveler a couple doors down. Also, the massage treatment I wanted wasn't available as the specialized therapist was only onsite certain days of the week. Luxury or not, Barcelo wasn't immune to the nationwide fly problem, meaning the luxury escape of a breakfast on their stunning restaurant terrace could easily get interrupted by the buzzing of insects trying to share your meal. The gym, though the best-equipped of the four hotels I stayed at in CV, is a bit under-equipped for a property with four-star aspirations. Also, it criminally underuses the property's prime location by shoving the gym into a small, windowless box.
All in all, a relaxing stay. Would absolutely recommend and rebook.
The people in the room upstairs were running around. The people in the next room were noisy. The room itself was great but noise insulation should be better. There were no elevators or ramps to get heavy bags up and down. Breakfast was great. All around the food was great. Local grilled fish for lunch was fantastic. Hotel staff were pretty good though sometimes did not give their full attention. The pool area was a feature. Very handy location.

HHAN호텔은 작고 방은 작고 수영장은 작지만 레스토랑에서의 저녁 식사는 나쁘지 않습니다. 11유로, 복도가 너무 어둡고 홀을 교환할 수 있으며 전반적인 서비스가 매우 좋습니다. 환승 호텔의 밤은 여전히 괜찮습니다. 옆에 쇼핑몰에서 전화 카드가 있고 공항에서 할 수 있습니다.
