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

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

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
Very good option in central Funchal
Positives - great central location, clean and well equipped rooms, exceptionally friendly and helpful staff (particularly reception), value for money and a decent breakfast. Areas for improvement - we found the noise early in the morning and late at night an issue, breakfast staff seemed either under-staffed or maybe add some more equipment to help them (extra toaster, double up on milk stations etc), evening restaurant never had any guests in the seven nights we were there - couldn't find a menu online or on display at the hotel which was a bit weird

Great location in Central Funchal
I wanted to be fairly close to central Funchal, not in a hotel a long way out & this hotel was pretty good Quiet side street, mostly local area - loved the walk in shower & buffet breakfast was fine
