"Great location easy walk into downtown Funchal. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. Ocean view recommended!! Weekend techno music wasn't my cup of tea. Weekend cleaning the room not great"
"I had a fantastic stay. Only criticism was with the spa. The steam room wasn’t operational when I paid it a visit even though it was within the stated opening hours."
"Exceptional hotel. location was great. Very clean and modern. the staff went above and beyond and gave us an early check in when we arrived. One of the best complimentary breakfasts with a ton of variety. We loved the heated indoor pool, sauna and steam room. Overall we can’t say a bad word about it. We would def come back!"
