Booked a room with excellent breakfast. A safe box, a mini bar, and central heating were a huge plus. The location of this hotel really close to the Palheiro Gardens and Golf Course and the mountainous areas was stunning and exceptionally nice. The staff were extremely helpful and professional, gave us great tips.

The hotel location was tranquil and nice down near the coast. The overall atmosphere was warm, nevertheless some staff members were not experienced.
The room was a little small, made me a little nervous.

Airy and good-sized room with excellent breakfast was enjoyable. As for me, the location was stunning and marvellous, close enough to the gardens and the golf course, other attractions and the hill. Also, an Art Deco statue was 5 km away from the hotel.

It is undoubtedly a great quality option when you are in Funchal. The breakfast is extensive, has many choices. Extremely helpful and professional staff as one would expect. The hotel is set in a peaceful and exceptionally nice location not far from a superb botanical garden, and good local walks, Palheiro Golf Club and the bay of Funchal.

The location was INCREDIBLE, in a 200 year old manor house, in the fairly quiet area. Besides, it was 4 km away from Mirador de Pinaculo. The service was good and the food was incredible. Great facilities and the pool was nice.
