A fair stay - not very charming, but not bad either
Pros:

The location

Cons:

It seems a bit old: elements of the shower are looser, the corners in the bathroom dirty/ warn, generally dark and the rooms have little charm.

A very quiet and comfortable stay in Funchal, close to the important sights
Pros:

Very nice hotel in an excellent location, which made it very easy to wander and explore the city. The rooms were comfortable, and the breakfast spread was delicious - with fresh fruit, juices, breads, cheeses, meats, smoked salmon, warm cooked food on a daily basis. We stayed 6 nights and enjoyed the variety. But the best asset of the hotel is the staff. Without exception, they were friendly, and Ricardo, the manager, was the best.

Cons:

It was surprising that filtered water was not available in the hotel. Yet, the staff said that drinking tap water is nor recommended. So, we had to buy water, and add to plastic pollution which would be a problem on an island. So, it would be better if the hotel offers free filtered water in glass bottles that can be re-used.

Schöner Aufenthalt in guter Lage
Pros:

Die Lage ist noch zentral, alles ist zu Fuß zu erreichen. Das Personal war sehr hilfsbereit, die Ausstattung gut. Sinnvoll ist die Nutzung des angebotenen Parkhauses in der Nähe, ansonsten wird man mit Auto nicht so glücklich.

Cons:

Nichts

Lovely stay but too pricey for what it was.
Pros:

Great location. Lovely staff who will go above and beyond to accommodate.

Cons:

Can hear other guests behind the wall quite clearly. No space just apart from your reserved room no waiting room in reception which in my opinion is not 4*. Though staff attention compensate the rest.
