Hotels Near Igreja do Socorro. in Funchal

The hotel is in a perfect location, near the center of Funchal. Rooms are modern, extremely clean and the staff is literally the reason this hotel is so amazing. We had an amazing experience and can totally guarantee it is absolutely worth it. The breakfast is not provided via a buffet, you get a menu, but you are free to order as many things as you wish, no limit. It is a hotel for people that wishes to go around and discover Madeira. If you prefer places to relax, this is not the right place as there is no pool.

Like another reviewer I became jittery the night before we left about the hotel being part of a shopping mall - silly me! We had such a great week staying here that we want to return next year (and we rarely return anywhere because there are so many new places waiting to be visited)! Everything about the hotel suited us perfectly. Lovely hotel, great staff, fantastic choice and quality at breakfast, quiet even though you're in the town and, as for the roof terrace - all whirlpools should be that big and have those wonderful views! Before I sound as though it was perfect I must confess that putting out the lighting on the first night caused a bit of a problem but we eventually worked out what to do, and we did get used to the low levels of lighting in the room and the lifts. Although we enjoyed cocktails by the pool, we didn't eat in the restaurant or drink in the bar but that was only because there are so many bars, restaurants and cafes within easy reach that it would have been a shame to miss out on some fantastic experiences. We were also there during the flower festival, which gave us beautiful sights and became our regular evening walk being so close to the hotel. Oh, and the icing on the cake - one of our favourite shops, Massimo Dutti, is at the entrance to the mall!

Very good location, various full breakfasts, staff available. The weak point is that there are only six places where you can park, but often you already have it. The possibility to park in the casino's parking lot is up to € 6.30 throughout the day. Another weak point of the soundproofing of the room is the sound of TV, doors in the adjacent room. Sufficient hotel, pleasant pool, jacuzzi hammam and small gym for 3/4 day!

Fabulous hotel with views to die for! We stayed in the newly renovated rooms and they were just stunning and again had amazing views. The hotel was super clean, the pool area was lovely. It is out of the centre so you do need to taxi which costs €10-15 or get the bus ( which didn't turn up when we tried so we found taxi better) we didn't mind being out of the centre because the hotel was worth it! The staff were great and the restaurant was beautiful with great food. The only thing I can fault the hotel on is that the water in our room was not replenished. Otherwise it was perfect. I would absolutely stay here again!

Alugamos 2 quartos neste hotel por 4 dias. Um bom hotel, mas longe de ser um 4 estrelas. Decoração dos quartos antiga e bem simples, sem charme algum, tipo 2,5 a 3 estrelas no máximo. Mas as camas eram confortáveis. A garagem disponível é bem pequena e se chegar tarde corre o risco de ter que procurar estacionamento na rua. O que se incomodo após um dia de passeios. Café da manhã simples, bom.

Very nice and conveniently located 4* hotel. Offers peace and quiet, lovely breakfast with multiple international options. It has a swimming pool which I have not used due to colder temperatures in December (20C degrees). The Aerobus stop is next to the hotel (the airport bus for €5 single trip) and the return trip bus stop #15 is on the opposite side of the road. Also the Red open top Funchal Sightseeing Bus has its stop at the same places. The room service at the hotel is regular and effective. The Reception team is very helpful and fluent in foreign languages. The hotel provides guests with a kettle and a few instant coffee sachets and Tetley teabags. Tetley tea is a big brand in Madeira- it is served at almost every restaurant and bar. Unfortunately, bottled mineral water is not provided on a daily basis. We got just one 1.5 l bottle on the day one of our 6 days stay and that was it. The interior design style of the hotel is modern- very pleasant and comfortable. We had a side view on the sea from the hotel window which was beautiful especially during the sunset. The bed was comfortable, the pillows were on the soft side, a bit too soft for me. We had extra pillows and extra duvet available in the room as well as a good quality hairdryer. The bathroom had a transparent glass door as well as the shower cabin. The TV had all the international cable TV, which was very helpful to keep in touch with the daily news. I would definitely stay at Villa Baleira again.

Stuffy room at the back of the hotel. Noise from street traffic and air conditioning in the shopping center is disturbing. Poolside rooms are better. Poor ventilation in bathroom. Buffet breakfast is ok. Parking in the adjacent public car park is good. However, this is not described anywhere and requires some searching for new guests.

Excelent choice for our stay in Madeira. The hotel is located in a natural botanical garden - some will count this as a minus, but I disagree. On our arrival, at 2AM - Bolt cost was 25USD (31kms). Excelent service, very clean, lots of activities and friendly staff. Totally recommended.

Pedro pobyt all inclusive. Uwagi dot. hotelu i Machico: - dobre Wi-Fi w pokojach i częściach wspólnych hotelu - łóżka 1 osobowe zsuwane razem (mają tendencję do rozsuwania się). Dobre materace. Do okrycia prześcieradło z zawiniętym w nim kocem i narzutą, oddzielnie dla każdego łóżka. Rozwiązanie dyskusyjne - koszt sejfu w pokoju to 14 euro za 7 dni - duży TV, w którym są wszystkie istotne info na temat hotelu - kiepskie wyciszenie akustyczne ścian i stropów (słychać nieco głośniejsze rozmowy). Dobre wyciszenie okien, praktycznie nie słychać szumu oceanu - wystarczająca na 2 osoby ilość szaf i półek. Przy łóżkach lampki nocne - na zewnątrz temperatury ok 16-18°C przy zachmurzeniu (w połowie stycznia). Po zamknięciu okna w pokojach w miarę ciepło. Klimatyzacji nie udało nam się włączyć. - w pokoju tylko 1 wolne gniazdo elektryczne. Można kupić w sklepie Continente rozgałęźniki elektryczne, w rozmaitych wersjach już od 1,5 euro. Niestety w moim pokoju położenie komody blokowało ich włożenie do gniazda - w hotelu (10 pięter). Są 2 przeszklone i nowoczesne windy. Od 3 pietra w górę zapewniają świetny widok na ocean. Niestety, strasznie wolno się otwierają, co radykalnie opóźnia ich pracę. Czasami, przy większym ruchu, zdecydowanie szybciej przejść po schodach - codziennie do pokoju jest dostarczana 1 butelka wody (1 litrowa, jeżeli wypiło się poprzednią). Chociaż niektórzy skarżyli się, że jej nie dostawali, - w łazience jest wanna z kotarą, 2 mydła w kostce, 2 szampony do włosów, gniazdo elektryczne. Brak suszarki do włosów. Ręczniki dobrej jakości w wystarczającej ilości. Woda w kranach miękka. W moim przypadku brak konieczności zakupienia żelu po kąpieli - hotel ma 50 lat, lecz jest bardzo zadbany i czysty. Kłopotliwe jest odnalezienie części wspólnych, np. restauracji, baru, zejścia na basen, itd. z uwagi na nieintuicyjne zaprojektowanie tej części hotelu - pokoje są sprzątane bardzo dokładnie - w hotelu jest dobra i nienachalna obsługa - animacji nie zauważyłem, co dla mnie nie było wadą. Wieczorem są koncerty na żywo - położenie hotelu fantastyczne, ok. 20 m od wód zatoki. Okna w lobby i restauracji zapewniają panoramiczny widok na zatokę i ocean, niestety częściowo przesłonięty przez drzewa - zimą w hotelu jest otwarty jedynie bar wewnątrz hotelu (Piano Bar – 2 poziomy powyżej restauracji). Dostaniesz w nim np. drinki, soki, kawę, brandy, whisky, wódkę, wino (w tym 4 rodzaje wina Madeira). W przerwach między posiłkami dostępne są w określonych godzinach bardzo skromne przekąski, głównie chleb tostowy z żółtym serem i wędliną oraz kuleczki z dipem. Chętnych na przekąski nie zauważyłem - ok 10-15 min. spacerem od hotelu znajdują się 2 duże markety Continente oraz Pingo Doce (w tym drugim zjecie nawet ciepły posiłek i napijecie się kawy) - okna w pokojach wychodzą na ocean lub na zatokę i panoramę Machico -goście hotelowi to większości francuscy seniorzy oraz Polacy - blisko do przystanków autobusowych, ok 200 m do przystanków do i ze stolicy
