Great value and location for the price. A bit rustic and could use some renovation for the closets and paint for the hallway walls, but overall extremely clean and pleasant. Breakfast was very good.

Good hotel for short stay

We stayed for one night given we wanted to be close to the airport. Hotel is well located, right in front of a taxi center, which was convenient, and close to a bunch of restaurants and beach. Hotel is older than what it looks like in the pictures, but it was clean overall. Fan in the room was not working and many of the outlets were broken. It was ok for one night and the staff was very friendly. Would need a little refresh, but overall it was good for the price and what we needed.

Room was wayyyyy too hot (30+ degrees inside) and no way to really cool. Outside was loud and the walls did not block noise at all. The hotel did not offer anything like earplugs or something. Breakfast was of low quality. Only good point is the relative late check out of 12;00.

Please note that this review is for the Hotel Solar do Bom Jesus in Santa Cruz - I was asked to move to this hotel when Hotel Amparo requested that I move to their sister hotel due to short-notice issues with the hotel. This was fine for me and it was handled very well by both hotels.

Cheap hotel and it did not exceed expectations. But it was super cheap and it suited us down to the ground for the first night on Madeira. For the price I can’t fault it.

Simple family run hotel. Clean and basic. Could use a little updating but we enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was a great selection of meat, cheese, local speciality baked goods, yogurt, cereal and fresh juices. We arrived late and they have a lock box system for picking up your keys. worked great. We selected staying in Machico our first night in Madeira due to our late night arrival. It is a great choice for that - less than 10minutes from the airport by taxi. In the middle of the night with luggage it was 15e. Machico is a cute little town with a very nice beach. Close to some great hikes. Of course, pretty much anywhere in Madeira is close to great hikes!! We would stay here again.

A few little things not quite true.

The details of the hotel say free on site parking. There is no parking at the hotel. The only parking is metered on the road. The details also say coffee and tea available. There is no coffee or tea in the rooms and when we asked for a cup of coffee we were told the machine was broken. The machine worked by breakfast time. The beds were comfortable.
