    Breakfast had a very poor choice of food and low-quality/cheap products (like cheese, fruits, etc.) We choose this hotel for good reviews about breakfast but the reality was very disappointing.

    Very good location (in the center of town and close to the airport), spacious and cozy rooms, and helpful staff.

    The rooms aren’t aesthetically appealing.

    It’s very close to the airport, so it works for a 1 night stay. Also, there is a beach and a few restaurants nearby. The hotel facilities themselves are pretty basic, but it serves the purpose.

    The location was closer to the airport than I had imagined which meant there quite a few planes coming in and out. There is also no pools of water nearby, except for an imported sand beach with wave breakers in walking distance... not really comparable to the back sand volcanic beaches you can find in the north west side of the island.

    Staff were friendly and accommodating to our needs e.g., providing us with a kettle on request. The breakfast was really good too. Also there's a lovely man named Carlos across from the hotel who deals in car rentals, and provides parking as well as great deals. Lastly, there's lots of local amenities and some superb restruants just a stones throw away.

    Parking can be a bit of a pickle.

    Everything was just perfect, the room was cosy, the lady at the front desk was fantastic. The location is a great spot if you want the beach, restaurants and a quiet town. Breakfast was great and hits the spot. We only had dinner once, but it was delicious.

    Amazing value for a comfortable, clean, friendly hotel. Very good breakfast buffet with fried eggs, bacon, cold meats, cheeses, yogurt, fresh fruit, juices, rolls and bread. Terrific location a block from the beach, and the town of Machico itself was a very pleasant surprise: scenic, lots of great eateries, pristine clean, and a wonderful beach.

    The hotel is in need of a serious renovation rooms-wise. I understand that many of the hotels by the beach do not have air conditioning, however a fan is a must? At the very least a ceiling fan in each room is needed. The furniture and bathroom features are outdated as well.

    The location of the hotel is exceptional! A block away from the beach, what else could one want? The last that checked us in was super friendly, nice and helpful with all our needs and questions.

    Absolutely stunning location. Like a scene from mamma Mia. A nice little Local bar 50 yards away with Sports channels. Nothing loud or crazy just a quiet enjoyable happy place. The hotel is within 200 yards of the beach and all other bars and restaurants. The hotel room it’s self was immaculate and very modern. 10/10 for the room and the staff and the breakfast that comes included was also everything you need to start your day off

    Machico isn’t the best location in a Madeira. It’s close to the airport, but it lacks charm.

    There is no air conditioning. The decor is run down and outdated. We were shamed for asking for a corkscrew, because the owner didn’t want us to spill wine on the old stained carpet.

    There weren’t a lot of options. The breakfast was decent.
