Quinta Funchal Gardens

"Do not hesitate, a very nice surprise! We had forgotten upon our arrival that we had booked such a beautiful accommodation, so our stay started very well :-)"

"Amazing stay. Room fab, food very fresh & tasty. Loved the pool & sauna and views. Staff helpful & friendly. Relaxing, calm atmosphere. Great for a wellness break. Bit of a walk from centre of Funchal but a Bolt (taxi) is very cheap. Hope to be back!"

"We stayed in this 70 bed hotel for 10 nights. It was OK but in my opinion it is not of 5 star standard. A major flaw ,although nothing to do with the premises ,is the fact that there is no footpath outside so forget it if you are intending to walk anywhere ,as it is very dangerous due to the heavy fast moving traffic. If you are not intending to use taxis or buses I would suggest you would need your own transport.The hotel could do with a refurbishment as carpets and bathrooms were dated. However ,our room was spacious and the bed was excellent as was the large flat screen TV. The staff were on the whole very pleasant ,in particuler the reception staff who all spoke English. Breakfast was OK apart from the tea /coffee machines where queues formed during busy times. They need to have a seperate hot water tap for tea instead of the current system where the same machines are used for both tea and coffee ,which is far too slow leading to long waits. The pianist was a pleasant surprise and he provided atmospheric music at this time during breakfast. The dinner menu offered a reasonable choice and prices were fair with the food of a good standard. The restaurant when set up for dinner looked really well with clean linen , cutlery and glassware. There was no evening entertainment which was a bit disappointing. There was a small gym with a minimum number of machines. Finally the exterior gardens were lovely and the swimming pool , although on the small side was adequate although the sunbeds were uncomfortable. So to conclude ,a nice enough hotel with friendly staff and good value for the prices charged."
