Best Hotels near Centro Comercial Parque América, Sao Joao Da Madeira

Sadly this is a hotel which has never hit its potential. In an area that is desperately in need of a decent hotel, this had all the potential. Sadly, one owner after another (it has changed names a few times since it opened about 10 years ago) have conspired to turn something with true potential, into an absolute mess. The last time I stayed here, the sheets were threadbare, and the towels were full of holes. You should not accept that from a 2 start hotel, never mind a 4 star establishment. The staff were equally disinterested. When I complained about the sheets and the towels I received the standard response ”we will advise housekeeping”, but said in such a way that indicated that this would have been a regular complaint from guests. At one stage, I asked to see the manager, and was advised that there ”no-one from Management is available”. I suppose that says all you need to know. Will wait for a further change of ownership before stepping inside this Hotel again.

The room was very small. There was no chair, only bed, two bedrooms, the minibar and the baggage device, everything was very exhausted. Even the door frames were shaved. The TV, analogue tube of 12 inches, 4:3 of course. The room was very comfortable and the room was very comfortable. There was a terrace that was painted white, black, dirty and unscreened everywhere, two landless gardeners and even more dirty.

A hotel located in the center of Oval. Close to all facilities, 5 kilometers from the beach. Very nice staff. The breakfast was good and the room was clean. The price/performance ratio is very good. I recommend.

We stayed at this hotel on a bed and breakfast basis for 7 nights. The hotel was modern and clean, staff were very helpful. The room was cleaned daily and products restocked. The location was perfect for us as situated close to motorway. We had a hire car for the week so the hotel car park was great for us. Burger King was next door so handy if wanted a quick coffee day or night. The hotel does have a bar. Breakfast was scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage, alongside a full continental selection. I recommend this hotel, we would certainly stay there again.

Environment: The surrounding environment is not bad, the overall feeling is good Hygiene: The sanitation of the hotel room is still possible Facilities: not very good, generally there should be some Service: Service is not bad

Wow. Where do I start. Firstly let’s talk about what you are expecting from your stay. For us, it was purely a business trip. We were using this place as somewhere to get our head down as we were going to be out most of the day. Location: the location of this hotel is awful. There is nothing around. The food they were offering on the menu was so little we decided to go out and find a restaurant. That was impossible! We were walking for 45 minutes (with no Road but I will get to that in a minute) only to find a time town with few cafes and pharmacy. No food anywhere. Now, to get to this town was the scariest walk of my life. There are no pavements. We had to walk on busy roads around bends and everytime I heard a car come, I just tensed up, expecting to be knocked over. The Pool: it was green, dirty and very very small. The food: after our 1.5 hour round trek we decided to come back to the hotel to get food, we were starving. We had been travelling all day. I settled for a vegetarian pizza, would have been nice if it was cooked, it was cold in the middle and hot on the edges. Whatever my husband wanted wasn’t available (burger, pie, meat pizza) so he settled for duck rice. Omg this was the most awful thing I’ve ever seen. The rice was microwave packet rice and the duck…. Well, check out my pictures and judge for yourself. The staff: I have to say, the staff were lovely. Friendly and eager to help. Drinks: there were probably, a choice of 4/5 drinks to choose from. Great if you like whiskey or gin. The room: the room was small, basic and mostly clean. Just very dated and very old. Overall: I know this is a 2 start hotel, so my expectations really weren’t very high but I at least expected it to be in a location where we could walk to get a drink / food somewhere.

Great hotel. Has everything going for it. Breakfast good choice. Room good size . All amenities. House staff lovely and helpful. Restaurant excellent, worthwhile booking to ensure a seat. Spa and indoor pool very relaxing.

A five-star hotel, with lots of swimming pools and a beautiful scenery! The Atlantic Ocean is behind this hotel! It's 10 minutes' walk away. It was a pity that I was busy with work and had no chance to swim!
