Northern Madeira Luxury Holidays

Very nice new property. Very well located and staff kind and helpful. An excellent choice for a few days in Madeira, exploring. Walking distance from city center of Funchal and nice views. Would highlight the pool at the rooftop, a nice plus after a day visiting Funchal. Would reccomend and stay again.

This hotel would be great if it wasn’t for a couple of things. The pools close early. Sun goes down at 9pm, but all amenities are closed at 6pm. When you are done exploring for the day, the amenities are closed when you want to use them most. The room needs renovation. The pillows were terrible and the bed is stiff as a board. Parking is a nightmare. They advertise that they have parking, but it was sold out all 5 nights. The only other viable option is at the casino. It’s right next door and the same price nightly, but there are no in and out privileges. This leaves you having to plan your day around only leaving once, which limits your ability to leave multiple times a day. Don’t advertise that you have parking if it is always full. Other than that, great hotel. Beautiful views. And beautiful pools when they are open.

The original CR7 hotel in his hometown. I am glad I visited and stayed at this hotel. The pool area has a nice view of the harbor. Downstairs is the CR7 museum. Dined at the hotel, Inverse by CR7 and it was pretty good. The fish and chips is delicious. Breakfast is good with a wide selection of foods. Room is spacious and clean. Headboard has CR7 decorations. But could use another couch in the room or something. Staffs are helpful and polite. Overall, a good stay at the hotel. I enjoyed it.

Amazing stay from the minute we got there to the minute we left

Sea view room was absolutely amazing

The room was good and housekeeping staff pleasant and helpful. The Spa, pool and garden were also good. The hotel was let down through reception staff not being helpful, such as giving limited answers re transport, eg, such as telling us shuttle bus bus ran once a day Monday to Friday but failing to say there was a local bus 7 days a week that stopped at main gate. A voucher for a Welcome! free cup of tea or a glass of local cider that apparently only German guests had a taste for, was supplemented by another Welcome Gift! In the room of four tea & coffe sachets, with 2 small portions of milk that would be replaced as required at a cost of €4… There was also a bottle of water. The room contained no hotel info whatsoever so any questions required locating a member of staff who, apart from the afore mentioned reception staff, were difficult to find. The spa bar menu and the evening Henry’s bar menus were supposed to be similar but the evening one was very limited. We were told on our second night it was only possible to order wine by the glass in Henrys after being served a bottle by the restaurant manager the previous evening… To be fair, the buffet breakfast was good, as was the restaurant dinner we had. The restaurant manager was excellent and stood out against other staff, apart from the shuttle bus driver who was also very helpful. The hotel lacked a warm ambiance and had an air of the British Fawlty Towers tv series about it. This is not a 5 star hotel.
