location superb on the busy bustling Rua de Santa MariAa right in the centre of the old city; not, perhaps, luxurious but comfortable spacious and clean, and all that a veteran traveller needs with a simple adequate breakfast but what was outstanding was the welcome by Carolina and Veronica (in alphabetical order!) who went out of their way to meet our (and I am demanding) our every need with sensible suggestions AND amazing help, when our return flight was cancelled, in rearranging accommodation for us and patience (well over an hour on the phone to EasyJet etc ) in sorting out alternative flights and all the attendant paperwork. BRAVO girls

A delightful little hotel in the heart of the Old Town and along the most amazing street of 'painted doors'. The Reception staff had all the information you required and were just lovely. I would like to thank them for all their help and advice. The rooms were spacious and clean. The public areas for reading etc. were very well furnished and charming and there was a bookcase for guests to use. The breakfast was fresh and plentiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to recommend it. The seafront, bus stations and cable car were minutes away and the bus service was excellent. Plenty of restaurants on the actual street to choose from and the food was very good. There was even a bakery attached to the hotel for the occasional pastel de nata treat. Loved the novelty of the painted doors and think I took photographs of every one. The gardens were a delight to visit and a must was the basket ride.

“Location location location”

Lovely little street in the Old Town The staff are lovely and very knowledgeable . Only a few minutes walk to the sea front and the cable cars. Plenty of choice for restaurants nearby. Not a hotel if you want to sit by the pool but great if you want to explore Funchal city

We had a room at the back of the hotel, slightly noisy because of bakery next door working during the night. The room and hotel was very clean, the staff were very friendly and helpful, breakfast every day was repetitive, rolls, cold meat ,cheese, fruit and yoghurts. There being a fantastic bakery next door we were very disappointed not to be offered a selection of pastries and bread for toasting. The location being in the old town was fantastic for restaurants and the cable car and not too far from the harbour. Also it would be nice if they could arrange for a safe in each room.
