The property is very well kept and maintained. They have a lot of activities on property's premises. They have a nice pool and fitness room. Our big surprise was receiving a champagne bottle for our birthays that happen during the stay. The view from upper floors is astonishing and we realy enjoyed to get themorning coffee on balcony

Will stop there again
All good, I used the hotel to explore island and was close to transport routes local buses, tourist buses and quick to get a Bolt cab. Had cooking facilities in room, so I didn’t have to wait around for breakfast (or get up early on chill days) Sea view from balcony was good.

Check-in at 3:00pm after coming in 11:00am to notify needed parking. Came in 2:45pm to try get car parked in time for 3:00pm. Room was not ready until 3:15pm. Parking lot is difficult and many unauthorized cars allowed in taking spots of paying customers. Very bad and this ultimately forced me to squeeze into a tight parking last night of trip. Causing damage to car just to get gas. Have not heard back from hotel management 2nd day after reporting in incident..

The location, the recreational amenities and shared events with partner hotels was excellent. The maintenance flaws could not be overcome though. Sparse times when there was hot water. Beds were old, hard and could not be separated.

View from our room was quite good. Room was dated and could use new carpets, flooring and fresh paint. Noise level from the hallway is poor. Other guests talking loudly and slamming doors until all hours at night. Food was average.

Great base for exploring!
Great stay, hotel is on a steep hill so maybe not the best for older people. Food was ok, nothing special but kept us filled up for the day. Staff were so lovely and friendly. Towels changed everyday, spotlessley clean and great to have so many facilities on site. Three pools, inner pool, tennis court and spa all included

Location of hotel close to Funchal
Hotel staff very friendly. Ideal location close to Funchal (30 min walk) . Beautiful sites to see along the way. Plenty of places to eat if you want to outside of hotel. Hotel needs to make a menu that is more child accommodating. Highly recommend sight seeing tours around the island. My kids love this hotel and staff remember them from previous visits

if you can afford a bit better then do
Room was ok for the price but if you can afford a bit better then do. The rooms have no air conditioning and due to the heat it was necessary to keep the door open it got noisy about 3am sho not much sleep the lifts are knackered out and bang and clang as well

Great location
Good basic hotel. Saving grace is young girl that works at reception - definitely goes the extra mile ( and in numerous languages!). Unfortunately, construction going on next door from 8am-7pm ...makes sitting on balcony difficult.

Reasonable for price
This is what we would call a budget hotel. It's a bit tired in terms of decoration but adequate facilities. Friendly staff. We went on b and b tariff. Breakfast was basic self service. A bit more variety in the cooked breakfast would have been appreciated. Building works alongside which started at 8am till 5.30. Didn't bother us too much as we're out all day. If folk are on same tariff try La Bamba restaurant just down the road. We ate there every night bar 2. Excellent service and the steak. on stone and spaghetti vesuvian are to die for!!
