Bus No 113 or 20 takes you to the Hotel from the airport during the daytime. The ocean can be seen while swimming in the roof pool. I have even seen the ocean from my bed. Traffic noise is disturbing for people only who sleeps late in the morning, because at night there is not much traffic. Breakfast is also... more

It was a short trip-just for 4 nights. A present for my dougther for her school enrolment. This hotel was perfect in many points: The rooms were beautyfull. The overview over Funchal and the bay was simply stunning. The service was more than friendly and very obliging. The recreational value was very high. The pool and also the view from... more

Great hotel with very helpfull staff. Good position overlooking the city. Very nice pool with sauna & jacuzzi, also lovely gardens. Only down side is no paths along the roads into the city, it's very steep in places with narrow lanes, parked cars make even more difficult to walk down, took us over a hour to walk in.

When you first buy a bus ticket, keep it, on going into town you can top it up, which will reduce the cost to 1 euro per trip, one ticket per person mind. We walked into Funchal the first day, it took over an hour but we... more

A rather big complex for the number of rooms, well designed, with stunning views from each level and corner. All facilities are free (internet, swimmingpool, sauna etc.). Very friendly and helpful staff, good restaurant with fair prices (you can't eat better and cheaper in the town). Don't miss it. Your wife will fall in love with you again on their... more

The hotel bus, plus local bus service and taxis, made Funchal easily available. The hotel restuarant was very good in service,quality and value, but a little more variaty would have been welcome. Tours are good value but the free half day tour thrown in with the two full day tours was very rushed and we would not have liked to... more

This Hotel was exactly as we imagined it would be from previous reviews. We were looked after from check in to check out, nothing was to much trouble. The rooms all have superb sea views with double glass windows and are well equiped with air conditioning, a safe (1.25 euros per night) power shower,hair dryer, etc, etc, There is a... more

The view over Funchal must be one of the best. Very clean hotel with beautiful gardens and romantic settings. Rooms remade every day and public areas always clean. Breakfast not to be missed. Courtesy bus very efficient and then the local buses are frequent, cheap and stop at the front door all day and evening. Found all the staff very... more
