Hotel 3 Bintang di Funchal

A minha primeira impressão do hotel não foi nada positiva... A porta do quarto empenada, caixilharia das janelas bastante datada (em duas das noites da nossa estadia estava vento e as janelas faziam imenso barulho e tinham pouco isolamento) e o quarto não tinha nem toalhas nem papel higiénico... Depois desta primeira impressão as coisas foram melhorando. O pequeno almoço foi bom e bastante variado. O hotel tem também piscina interior e exterior de utilização gratuita e disponibiliza toalha. O hotel disponibiliza estacionamento por 7euros por noite, mas com alguma sorte conseguimos estacionar numa rua por trás do hotel gratuitamente (em que era fácil aceder ao hotel por uma porta traseira). Check-in e check-out correu sem problemas

We are a couple and stayed for 3 nights in this hotel (May 2022). For a 3-stars hotel, we do love their service during our trip in Funchal, Madeira. There are several restaurants nearby to have lunch and dinner. It is only 10 minutes of walking to the nearest beach. We rented a car for 1 day, and the rent car location was so close from the hotel (5 mins of walking). If you are looking for a budget hotel with great service and good location, you may consider this hotel as an option. I recommend this hotel for you. Pros: 1. Location The location is quite good. From the airport, we took aero bus and paid €8 for a return ticket per person. The aero bus only accept payment in cash. The ride will take us around 30 minutes from the airport to the nearest stop (no.3 Mercado). Then, we walked to the hotel for 10 minutes. You just need to climb up the road after you are in 31 Janeiro street. To walk to the city center l, it will take you less than 10 mins too. 2. Check-in The check-in went smoothly and no problem. After we verified our identification card, the receptionist told us about the wifi, breakfast, and others things. 3. Price We made a reservation through OTA. It was good value of money to stay in this hotel. The breakfast already included in the price for 2 people. 4. Room The room is quite simple, clean, and not so big. We had twin beds with a city view (4th floor). There is a TV, chair, table, cupboard. The bed and pillow are comfortable for me. The bathroom is quite big and it is clean. The standard amenities like soap, shampoo are there. The towels are clean. The hot water and the ac worked perfectly. 5. Breakfast The breakfast is not bad, it exceed our expectations. They have fresh bacons and sausage everyday. The view from the breakfast area was so beautiful. 6. Wifi The wifi is easy to connect and the speed is good from our room. 7. Staff The staffs are quite nice and helpful. The man helped us to get to know a ticket available for Porto Santo. The woman helped us with useful information to take the aero bus to the airport. The staffs for breakfast were nice too. 8. Facilities The hotel has spa, restaurant, rooftop bars. Cons: 1. They should improve the fruits salad on the breakfast. The quality of the fruits could be better.

In the middle of a ten day holiday at this hotel. It is a lovely, clean, small and friendly hotel in an excellent central location. Our self-catering room with balcony is huge, with all you need to make yourself comfortable for a short or long stay. There is a very reasonably priced little supermarket next door .The beds are perfect for a good nights sleep and it's lovely to have a bath aswell as a shower. The rooftop pool area is a bonus and kept very clean. The manager is very friendly and has a great sense of humour. We are here during an unexpected heatwave and having to sleep with the windows and doors open ( fans are available) and yes there is traffic noise but I was aware that I was booking a central city location and have earplugs. If I wanted peace and quiet I would have booked a rural hotel. Having said that the hotel itself is very quiet, we can't hear other guests/staff coming and going. Overall we are glad we chose this hotel for our first trip to Funchal .

After a very late flight cancellation, we booked the Carmo in haste. It was a real stroke of luck as the hotel proved to be fabulous. We loved that they've kept the sixties style and, although the rooms aren't the most modern, it makes for a stay with a difference, in contrast to so many chain hotels. The best thing is the staff who are terrific. Special mention to the lovely Tania who immediately calmed our stress and sorted everything in a calm, professional and friendly manner. She's an absolute star!

The location of this hotel is excellent for moving in the heart of the city. Small balcony, and air con essential, the hotel are also in the process of adding small room fridges . Cesar in particular gave us a warm welcome, helped us with taxis and maps. Great location for some excellent restaurants, and a stroll to the public gardens. The rooftop terrace bar and pool area was small but sufficient and the snacks and PONCHA great. The breakfast room is somewhat dowdy and unloved and some of the staff although generally efficient - seem to resent their work and lack all of Cesar's welcome and warmth. Overall for a small city centre 3 star - good value for money.

The hotel is in Lido area with plenty of restaurants and small super markets near by. Only 3 mins walk to bus top where can bring you to City Center €1.95 single one way and airport. €5 single one way, €8 return. Walking to City center is about 20-30mins. Only 10mins walk to Forum Madeira shopping mall. Breakfast is good with many choices of fruit, salad, yogurt, ham, eggs, bread, cereals. Indoor, outdoor pool and gym are nice too. We stay in sea and swimming pool view studio with kitchenette. The balcony is wonderful. Staffs are polite and patient. Only one con, no air conditioning in 31 degrees. Only have a ceiling fan.

Myself and husband along with our daughter, son-in-law and grandson aged 1.5 years had an amazing holiday. The experience from landing in Funchal, transfer to hotel and the most welcoming experience on arriving at Dorisol Mimosa was first class. Yes, some of the external paint work can do with some attention but that is the only issue. The welcome at the main reception was lovely with plenty of information. Rooms are spacious and bright, also cleaned daily. We were b&b which was plentiful and well stocked, kitchen assistant were very pleasant and helpful. The pool area was exceptional clean and relaxed with plenty of sunbed and a small deck area. The facilities such as indoor pool, gym and tennis court are well-maintained. The terrace bar and restaurant was outstanding,.this includes service and amazing food. The most spectacular views from the rooftop bar is breathtaking and we sat and relaxing every evening. Madeira is very hilly and not for folk who have difficulty walking but a stunning island that is self sufficient offering many local produce. Local restaurants are welcoming and give no hassle. The front seafront area is like paradise which we visited daily. Definitely will return to funchal.and Dorisol Mimosa

We stayed at this hotel twice and have booked it again. It’s a budget-friendly place in the very centre of Funchal. It has everything we need really - the rooms are spacious, there’s always hot water in the shower, the rooms are cleaned every day. Faultless, fast WiFi (crucial if you are working remotely or travelling with a teen). Massive kudos to the amazing staff - they are very friendly and courteous. The location is perfect for sightseeing in Funchal or getting to other places in Madeira.

Ho prenotato questo hotel in quanto sia la posizione centrale che il buon rapporto qualità prezzo, sembravano veramente ottimali per le mie necessità, ma purtroppo le sorprese in negativo mi aspettavano dietro l'angolo. La struttura è in centro, ubicata accanto ad un supermercato in una zona dove non ci sono parcheggi auto, tant'è che si appoggiano ad una loro altra struttura a 50mt di distanza, dove è possibile lasciare il veicolo, introducendolo in un'area parcheggio piuttosto angusta e stretta, dov'è veramente difficile posteggiare. Il personale della struttura è poco cordiale e spesso assente, ma più che altro parlano pochissimo inglese e si curano poco della clientela: c'è un signore di una certa età che fuma di continuo ed è visibilmente turbato quando deve rientrare dentro dovendo buttare la sigaretta a metà. Quando non c'è nessuno nella hall, ognuno può prendere la sua chiave (ma anche quella di un altro) facendo self service ed andare in stanza. La camera è di dimensioni generose, ma ha una moquette lercia e che puzza di muflone, sui comodini ci sono briciole e capelli, per non parlare dell'interno dei cassetti che è inenarrabile... Il bagno è ancora peggio, in quanto non ha una vera e propria vasca e che allo stesso tempo non è nemmeno una doccia: sembra una grossa tinozza tutta incrostata ed ingiallita con 4 rubinetti, 2 per la zona bassa e 2 per la zona alta della doccia (caldo - freddo). Purtroppo la doccia non funziona, pertanto per lavarsi bisogna usare l'acqua della parte bassa che come si può immaginare, non è molto comoda per lavarsi integralmente; anche il phon per i capelli era un disastro in quanto il tubo in plastica da dove usciva il calore era quasi integralmente bucato e l'aria fuoriusciva ovunque tranne che dalla zona dove doveva fuoriuscire. Se a tutto questo ben di dio, ci mettiamo dei letti duri come il porfido e la WiFi che funziona solo alla reception ed al 1' piano dell'edificio (io ero al 3'), direi che c'è ben poco di cui essere entusiasti. Guardando successivamente, ho notato che ci sono altre strutture meglio recensite ad aver dei prezzi abbastanza similari a questo, pertanto opterei di valutare attentamente prima di imbattersi in questa poco soddisfacente avventura.
