Don Paco - Review

The Don Paco is a ideally placed for access to the Port and to the center of Mindelo. While the hotel is no frills, the staff are very friendly and efficient and the food was consistently very good. Also the Owner is on site most evenings and is accessible. The only down side was the late evening noise from outside the hotel

Great location

This hotel is in a perfect location if you don't have transportation. We walked everywhere in town for dinner, supermarket, the ferry, laundomat, fish market, etc. The hotel was not able to do our laundry (I think there was a problem with their washer), so when we were out walking around the town, we found a laundromat. The man working there was so nice. Two hours later, we had clean clothes for about $5.00. The included breakfast was fine for us because we don't normally eat a large, hot meal in the morning. We had booked a suite, so our room could not have been nicer.

great hotel for anyone or any group

Hotel is in a great location being just around the corner from the harbor and a very short walk to the marina and pool area. And just across the street from the hotel is a post office and a bank. This is an urban hotel that makes maximum use of space. The daily brunch was more than sufficient to provide for every palate and the service was always friendly and yet very professional.
