I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, right in the heart of the historic area of Funchal, with stunning views of the lit-up mountains at night. The rooms were cozy, with a small balcony offering a lovely view of the restaurant below. The service was outstanding, from the welcoming champagne to the attentive spa staff. The dining experience was delightful, with a variety of freshly cooked options to cater to different appetites. However, the Wi-Fi needed to be paid for separately, which was a bit of a downside.
