Ouril Mindelo

I truly enjoyed my stay at Hotel Ouril! The hotel is beautiful, clean and comfortable. It is a waterfront hotel, centrally located in Mindelo. Breakfast was included in my stay and it was delicious. They served their traditional dishes, along with a variety of fresh fruits and pastries. Far better than your typical American breakfast. The rooms were bigger than I expected....not your standard, small European size room. The staff was professional and pleasant. I would absolutely recommend Hotel Ouril.

This is standard 4-star hotel, with very attentive staff, spacious rooms, clean and efficient. Breakfast was outstanding, with the usual continental options with many local add-ons, including local fruit, goat cheese and cakes, and even "cachupa", the country's traditional dish. Breakfast is in a rooftop with a nice view of the bay, with a small swimming pool.

Let me start by saying it has a great location at the Marina, with modern facilities. Everything is within walking distance. The ferry is across the street if you want to visit Santo Antao. If you want to go to Baia, Santo Pedro, or Cahau, you can rent a car for a day or take a taxi—there are many ways to get around. You feel safe here, and security is 24/7. Front desk: Very welcoming. Lauren was very professional and very helpful. Thank you, Lauren, for accommodating us. The room had a great view—Liz Melicilo was exceptional. She was very professional, friendly, courteous, and helpful. I can't forget the one who did my checkout—thank you! Rooms: The room was lovely, comfortable, and very clean. Its interior design is thoughtful, beautiful, and cozy. It was very spacious for us and had stunning views. Valina( from Spia) was pleasant and kept our room spotless. We had a problem with the air conditioner, but it was immediately fixed. Suggestion: A coffee maker/tea condiments in the room. Breakfast: A full continental breakfast buffet style (cachupa, scramble, fried, and boiled eggs, bread/toast, cereals, fruits, ham, cheese, yogurt, etc.).The team (Suzi, Leila, Raquel, and the one with the glasses) are friendly, pleasant, and professional. They kept everything clean and worked well together. Suzi makes an excellent coffee. Restaurant: The drinks were great, and the food was good. It offered a good menu and service with terrace seating. The waitresses are amiable (especially the one who accommodated my extended family with table sitting on my last night; I know your boss gave you a hard time (I noticed it), but you kept your head up and didn't let it bother you- Thank you for all you did. I know how hard you ladies worked. Suggestion: Extending the Bar hours, especially on Friday and Saturday. Pool: Stunning views.

Well located, next to many restaurants and the port. Rooms were spacious and clean, with a good AC. The breakfast was very good. The staff were very helpful, and accommodated my request to extend my stay without issue.

Good hotel up to international standards. Our room was bigger than expected. Breakfast was good with quite many choices (perhaps fresh juice would be nice). Staff was super friendly and even allowed us to check in earlier since the room was available. The hotel is located just opposite to the ferry terminal to go to Santo Antao.
