The staff were very friendly and helpful and quick with checking in and out. The rooms were clean but not what you would expect from a 5 star hotel. It is not in the centre of Funchal but in Lido which is about a 20-30min walk away but it is in the nicest area of Madeira with shops, restaraunts and buses close by into the centre of town. It is overall a fabulous hotel that if you get a chance to stay at when they offer these great rates you should absolutely take the opportunity to do so!

The food was good with extensive selection self-service breakfast with a delightful arrangement of small rooms, nooks and cranies within a larger room. This became an intimate candlelit dining area with waiter service in the evening. It had a staircase leading to a bar serving an interesting selection of cocktails.
