A house with a story in the heart of Mindelo
Rooms, an apartment, an interior courtyard and a rooftop terrace in a century-old house, a short walk from Laginha Beach.
Welcome
Stay in a house with character, not an anonymous hotel
As Hortênsias is a century-old house in central Mindelo, restored to keep what time gave it: walls, doors and the very layout of its spaces. Inside you will find paintings on the walls, a courtyard with a chequered floor and, at the top, a terrace to watch the city at the end of the day.
The house owes its name — and part of its soul — to Tia Hortência. Read the story.
