The staff are very helpful and diligent, excellent relation cost/value, peaceful hotel with decent facilities. Is a little bit uphill from "Monumenral" avenue, not really useful if the guest have some disability, the breakfast was the same all the stay, pretty boring considering I were there for 14 days.

Most of all I liked the staff and helpfulness they provided for me. I also liked the cuisine which was variable and extremely well served in the best French-restraurant way. I liked that i could travel with a hotel shuttle-bus to the city centre and it was totally for free, the schedule was quite nice. I like Madeira Forum shopping mall close to the hotel location and that fact that almost all green-lined buses passed by the stops neaby the hotel. I also liked the seeing-off gift for me - chocolate candies and buscuits. I didn't like the cleaning service. On the day of my arrival I had somebody's hair in the basin which was stunning. Though I told them about it at the reception it was effective only a few days. Then I had a towel spotted with lipstick and the towel was for an intimate area, had to address that too. Another thing was breakfasts quite samely, eggs and bread, yogurt, ec.

Agr Agradou-me muitissimo a genlizeza do pessoal. Apesar de alguns funcionarios serem ainda aprendizes, pode-se destacar o desejo de sempre agradar os hospedes. Em uma escala de 0 a 10 , merecem nota 10...

Em geral tudo! Apenas um pequeno almoço que os ovos estavam estragados e tanto eu como a minha amiga ficamos doentes, mas mais a minha amiga. Domingo de manha comemos o ovos com bacon não caíram bem, ontem 3 feira ainda estava de cama com diarreias e vómitos......

Rauhallinen siisti hotelli, jossa erinomaiset palvelut ja ystävällinen palvelualtis henkilökunta. Upea merinäköala parvekkeelta Atlantille.Hyvät yhteydet kapunkiin yleisillä kulkuneuvoilla, noin 20 minuuttia. Linjan 2 pysäkille matkaa noin 300 metriä. Aamupala riittävä, vaikkakin joka aamu samanlainen jo kolmantena präkkäisenä vuotena. Suosittelen rauhallista ja rentouttavaa lomaa suunnitelevalle. Aamupalaan enemmän vaihtelua. Tupakoivat opiskelijat hotellin portilla, eivätkä heidän maahan heittämänsä tupakantumpit ole hyvää mainosta hotellille, joka muutenn on tasokas.

Kleineres ruhiges Hotel in einem Wohnquartier am Stadtrand. Von allen Zimmern schöne Aussicht aufs Meer. Hotel sowie Anlage sind sehr gepflegt. Stadtzentrum mit dem öffentlichen Bus gut erreichbar. Sehr zuvorkommendes und hilfsbereites Personal. Gute Küche. Menuvorschlag der Lernenden ist sehr zu empfehlen. Vorzügliches Essen schön angerichtet mit passendem Wein, Mineralwasser und Kaffee zu einem äusserst günstigen Preis. Das Hotel hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen.

Nous avons séjourné du 25/08/11 au 03/09/11, en demi-pension. La famille était composée de deux adultes d'âge mûr, une adulte de 26 ans et une adolescente de 14 ans.Le personnel est compétent, effficace, attentif, à l'écoute et proche des clients, sympathique. En résumé "à nos petits soins". J'espère sincèrement y retourner. Nous avions des chambres assez spacieuses, propres, avec balcon et vue sur l'océan (génial). Le petit déjeuner et le dîner sont copieux, et la cuisine est bonne et raffinée. Le rapport qualité/prix est excellent. Cet hôtel est très calme, et surveillé. L'atmosphère est agréable. On se sent vraiment bien dans cet établissement. Il parle français. ANNIIE

La ubicación del hotes el ideal, fuera del centro donde se concentran todos los hoteles masivamente. Muy bien comunicado si alquilas coche y tambien tiene parada de autobus al lado. Es un hotel muy tranquilo, idoneo para descansar y desconectar.

Aangezien ik als vrouw alleen reisde, vond ik het zeer aangenaam door vriendelijk en toegewijd personeel benaderd te worden, zonder opdringerig te zijn. Het personeel hangt af van de officiele hotelschool en is hierdoor uitstekend opgeleid, ook als reisgids en zij kunnen dus uitstekende tips geven voor uitstapjes/de te volgen routes/...Het is een rustig hotel, geen uitbundige toestanden en luidruchtige muziek aan het zwembad, zalig! Het is ideaal gelegen om van hieruit met de wagen toeristische uitstapjes te maken. Zij bieden ook een uitmuntende, doch eerder beperkte, keuken aan tegen voordelige prijzen. Tijdens mijn verblijf was helaas de airco gesneuveld...zij diende enkele dagen te wachten op een vervangstuk vanop het vasteland, maar hebben er ondertussen wel alles aan gedaan om de hinder voor de gasten te beperken door het plaatsen van mobiele airco's, uitstekende service! De keuken is slechts open tot 21u30, wat beperkt is als je een hele dag op uitstap gaat en laat toekomt. Als je bijvoorbeeld om 20u30 aan een menu begon en je moest om 21u30 nog enkel het dessert geserveerd krijgen, kwam men melden dat je dit niet meer zou verkrijgen wegens de keuken die afsloot voor die dag...dat vond ik lichtelijk overdreven. Ik kan begrijpen dat je dan niet meer aan tafel dient te gaan, maar het bestelde menu dient men wel af te werken. MIsschien een optie om enkele kleine snacks toe te voegen aan de menukaart, zodanig dat men toch nog een kleinigheid kan eten indien men laat arriveert vanwege een uitstap of indien men gewoon niet veel honger of zin heeft in een volledig menu.

Personnel efficace, compétent et sympathique. Grande chambre confortable avec balcon et vue mer. Restaurant gastronomique et service impeccable. Hôtel très calme, bien décoré, et à dimension humaine. Parking gratuit et commode d'accès. Le personnel parle français. Excellent rapport qualité prix. On se sent vraiment très bien dans cet hôtel où je retournerai avec plaisir. Situation un peu excentrée par rapport au centre ville de Funchal. Horaires des navettes gratuites peu commodes.

Es un 4 estrellas real, el personal es muy profesional y esta muy completo de servicios. Se accede muy facil desde Funchal y todas las habitaciones tienen vistas al mar. El ruido de los motores de las cámaras frigorificas. Y el restaurante, realmente varian el menu todos los dias, pero repiten semanas. De todas formas preferimos ir a cenar fuera...hay una oferta enorme en Madeira.

Lungt och vänligt hotell med möjlighet till god mat. Mat serverades till bra pris och med bra service. Frukosten god men annorlunda eftersom den serverades och var väldigt lika varje dag. Trevlig utsikt över havet från balkongen. Frukosten borde ej anges som buffé eftersom den serveras av pesonalen utan möjlighet att ta själv. Lite jobbigt att till fots nå stranden och stadens centrum

Es un hotel con una relación calidad/ precio m.buena. Las habitaciones tienen vistas al mar y por las noches es m. agradable. Muy silencioso, pequeño, el desayuno m.poco variado pero abundante (te lo sirven en la mesa), la piscina, si bien no cubre en ninguna parte, casi siempre está vacia, con tumbonas disponibles y posibilidad de parking dentro del hotel gratuito (importante si se viaja con coche de alquiler). La piscina no cubre, el desayuno es poco variado y haría falta un shuttle por la noche a Funchal (ida y vuelta) ya que está algo alejado.
