Hotel

The hotel is very central to all the main areas in Funchal, which makes it easy to get about and see the sights. Good breakfast and room was good. Swimming pool and gym on site

TripAdvisor Review
Great stay

Recommend this hotel, very friendly staff and nice spacious room. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choice. Located slighty away from the centre but an easy walk to most sights. Supermarket a few mins away also

Totally revamped and just as good as before

I've stayed in this hotel in it's previous guise (Hotel do Carmo) many times over the years and was a little nervous about going back after the revamp with all the changes.

I shouldn't have been.

On arrival there was a little mistake with the room allocation, but this was very quickly resolved and the room type I'd booked was quickly sorted after multiple apologies and after that everything was perfect.

Yes, the hotel has lost the 60s charm it previously had, but the same amazing, friendly staff who have greeted me with a beaming smile over the years are still there just as welcoming and friendly as ever. The quality of service and cleanliness is just as good, if not better and the one thing that let them down, air conditioning has now arrived.

I'll definitely be back again on my next visit

Relaxed atmosphere, great staff , great location

Great location in Funchal, quiet area but very near the city. Very chilled atmosphere in the hotel, not too much of a busy feel My room had everything it needed, the fridge was a great addition, although not very cold. The bed was comfortable and a great size, the bathroom was clean and the walk in shower was excellent. The balcony facing towards the mountains was great to have my morning cuppa on. Plus being on floor 5 there was only a handful of rooms, so it was nice and quiet at all times, All in all, for what I paid i think it was great value for money The staff at reception and the bar were always happy and smiling Big shout out to the girl on reception, i didn't catch her name but she had a trainee badge on, she was super helpful, and full of lots of useful information. The roof top pool was excellent, not too cold and great to relax at for an hour or two after a long day out exploring the city. This hotel although small, has a big hotel energy without too many people I would 100% recommend , and If I ever have the pleasure of returning to Funchal in the future, I will for sure use this hotel again P.S there is a supermarket just a 2 min walk away from the hotel, which is very cheap and useful was bottled water etc
