We were upgraded to an upper floor with funchal bay view. Excellent views from the room and great service from staff! Breakfast had a wide spread and was good. Take note that there are opening hours for the sea access level. The only downside was the rooms a little dated.

Fantastic stay at this great hotel
Everything about the hotel is very stylish. The rooms are large and comfortable and have everything you need. At breakfast there is plenty of choice and plenty of helpful staff. Outside there are plenty of loungers and masses of space. Highly recommended.
