My wife and I had previously stayed in Funchal but this time decided to stay in the old town and chose this hotel. We were not disappointed. From the moment we entered the hotel to be greeted by Mr Dias and the staff to the moment we left, politeness was the watchword , nothing was to much trouble. For those... More

Quiet location in the picturesque old town, much more charm than over in the new area where most of the big resorts are. Charming pool, good breakfast, beautiful views and tons of tropical flowers. The staff were also incredibly nice. Comfortable bed, great shower and bathtub, nice balcony. This is an absolutely lovely hotel and I would whole-heartedly recommend staying... More

This is our third visit to this superb hotel, where we were treated like returning family. The service & hospitality goes from strength to strength, and the Dias family personally ensure that the breakfast & lunchtime snacks are top quality!!

We have just returned from a visit to the flower festival, we found this hotel to be excellent in all respects. Accommodation was superb and this, combined with the extremely attentive staff, made our holiday memorable, would certainly return for another visit!

We stayed at the hotel in March this year.We can honestly say it far exceeded all our expectations. The owner of the hotel was charming and could not do enough for you as were his staff who without doubt are the best hotel staff we have ever had dealings with. The room and the hotel were spotlessly clean and it... More

This really is a little gem for all the reasons other contributors have said, and the reason we returned for a second time this March (2013). Everything is well managed from the great breakfast to the hotel facilities coupled with helpfull and charming staff who always greet you with a smile. Raul does a great job behind the bar and... More
