Miinukset: I had to pay for parking.

Plussat: Monipuolinen aamiainen, jossa tarjolla paljon tuoreita hedelmiä ja paistopisteeltä herkulliset munakkaat. Aurinkotasolta ja parvekkeilta hienot näkymät merelle.

Miinukset: Hissiä joutui jonottamaan joskus kauankin (15.krs).

Plussat: Erinomaisesti toimiva siivoushenkilökunta. Hyvä aamiainen tilavassa aamiaishuoneessa. Kaiken kaikkiaan viihtyisä hotelli, joka oli hiljattain remontoitu.

Miinukset: Kaikki toimi hyvin

Plussat: Nice hotel. Quite big, but interior is impressive. Nice view to the ocean from the hotel room.

Miinukset: A little bit cold in the room. Cold bathroom. Coffee in the breakfast was poor.

Plussat: Erinomaista tummaa, rapeakuorista leipää.

Miinukset: Leikkeleet aamiaisella ovat kehnoja.

Plussat: Incredibly clean and Comfortable. Beautiful pool. Easy stroll to the waterfront

Plussat: Breakfast was very good so much chose from

Miinukset: Shame Alcart resurant was not open

Plussat: The staff were friendly and helpful. The location was good.

Miinukset: There was no lotion in the room.

Plussat: Henkilökunta Parkkihalli

Miinukset: Huonetta ei saanut jäähdytykselle Bussikuljetus keskustaan voisi olla useammin

Plussat: Spotlessly clean. Helpful friendly staff. Good facilities and nice location.

Miinukset: Being extremely picky but the shower pressure in the room wasn't great. No negative points really stand out.

Plussat: Very friendly staff, big room, wonderful breakfast. Optimal split quality/price

Plussat: Magnificent, was our anniversary, and I emailed the hotel one week before arriving to arrange a flower boquet to be on arrival after one day of arriving, and the hotel staff were exceptional and kept there promise... Thank you, in our opinion.... 4 star should be 5 .. well done to all at Alto Lido .. bjs

Plussat: The breakfast was good. Great view of the sea from the top floors.

Plussat: The hotel is convenient, and the price is not expensive, so I think it is very good!

Plussat: The best breakfast ever! :) what every you would like to eat you could find there, there was even Champagne..

Miinukset: double room were a bit old fashion looking

Plussat: It's really good. You can see very beautiful sea-view just in the room. The traffic to the Funchal and other place is also easy. The breakfirst is good too.

Plussat: Very friendly and helpful staff always ready to give information. Excellent breakfast choices available.

Miinukset: The only British TV available was BBC World, 24 hours of the same news, could have done with an alternative.

Plussat: Our room 979 was fantastic , I emailed the hotel before hand - my request for a quiet room , twin ( had 2 v comfortable doubles) with a pleasant view ( wow sea views from this room’s balcony ) exceeded our expectations as we had only booked a twin side view room- Although we had to eat early 630/7. Was able to use 3 specialty restaurants on our short stay. The Japanese one was our favourite. The buffet for breakfast and lunch was very good. Especially the fresh fish cooked while you waited. Also it was nice to be able to eat outside for lunch. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. We asked for diet coke for fridge and this was remembered. Liked having a kettle in our room. Although only 1 choice of each wine colour -type i liked the dry white . Although only a glass served With meals at a time the staff fill up as soon as one looks nearly empty. Thanks The Floaters decaf coffees were v pleasant after dinner too. Able to try several Maderia wine and some Poncha Rum via the AI. Although not all to my taste was nice yo try. The sweet Madeira wine with the lunch’s fruit cake was my favourite. Red Hop on off buses stop minutes away. Easy walk to a small mall - forum shopping centre which was open til 10pm .

Miinukset: Outdoor pool out of action until end of the month. Was able to use indoor pools/ spa instead - main disadvantage was it was a bit of an eye sore also wasn't prewarned before we checked in. Maderian restaurant- their signature dish was a let down. I hope just an off day for the chef but fish overcooked, no passion fruit sauce and 1 tiny sliver of banana only on it.

Plussat: The breakfast was great, especially the poached eggs and the porridge. Appreciated the choice of hot or cold plates. The room was large and comfortable with 2 double beds, plenty of pillows, nice duvets, comfy chairs, good sized TV, large bathroom, private balcony where you could smoke if you wished. Dining room staff and housekeeping staff excellent.

Miinukset: The food at the evening meal was disappointing, I would rate it only 2 or 3*. The shower area in our room, although very large, was lethal! The large shower tray was so slippery and there were no grab rails. Reception were able to provide a rubber mat when asked but this felt like a dangerous design error. Also nearly had several accidents going from room to balcony and vice versa - there is what seems like an unnecessary step down into the room - just when your eyes need to adjust to different light levels. No choice of what weight of bedding - only a quite thick duvet which was too hot the first night, a spare blanket would have been nice as a choice.

Plussat: Gym, swimming pool, quiet neighborhood, very helpful staff, tasty food, comfortable beds, clean room.

Miinukset: The gym has a lot of equipment, but most are rusty. Not very good coffee.

Plussat: - Siisteys, vuoteet, oma parveke, näkymä merelle, ystävällinen henkilökunta. - Sisäuima-allas oli lämmitetty. -All Inclusive oli monipuolisuudessaan positiivinen yllätys. Ravintoloissa oli jokaiselle jotain kaikkina kellonaikoina. Tuoreet hedelmät ja kasvikset, kuin myös jälkiruoat ja leivonnaiset olivat hyviä. Juomia - sekä alkoholittomia että alkoholillisia - oli kattava valikoima. - Hotellissa oli iltaisin musiikkia ja muuta ihan tasokasta ohjelmaa. -Kaupungin bussit kulkevat hotellin edestä, pysäkille matkaa ehkä parisataa metriä.

Miinukset: - Ison hotellin iso ruokasali oli hiukan kalsea, kovien pintojen tilassa äänet kuuluivat kovina. Olisi hienoa, jos löytyisi keino parantaa viihtyvyyttä. - Huoneemme oli ilmeisesti perhehuoneen toinen huone, koska siinä oli väliovi. Äänieristys ei ollut hyvä, naapurin puhe- ja tv:n äänet kuuluivat. - Ihan viittä tähteä en tälle ihan hyvälle hotellille antaisi.

Plussat: the hotel is so good that many people return year after year....

Miinukset: they have a lot of fish dishes and also stews/casseroles. It would be nice to have simple chicken breasts, steaks and things without sauce.

Plussat: Staff were lovely and hard working

Miinukset: Areas around the outdoor pool were quite slippy, more issues when kids were tempted to run around

Plussat: Hyvä näköala, yleisilmeeltään siisti hotelli, jota kunnostetaan parhaillaan, kaikista huoneista merinäköala ja ihan hyvä äänieristys, kolmena iltana sisältyi ruokailu ala carte -ravintolassa , auton sai ilmaiseksi parkkihalliin

Miinukset: Melko pitkä kävelymatka keskustaan

Plussat: Staff on check out was friendly, explained that even though we were no longer wearing our wristbands, we had access to lunch and drinks before we left. Nice little promenade walk when you leave the hotel through the pool-side entrance. Shampoo, body wash and lotion, soap etc provided. No conditioner. Drinks (pepsi, 7-up, briska and water) in fridge, part of all-inclusive and topped up when finished.

Miinukset: Grumpy male staff member checked us in - not a great first impression. Had blue plastic wristbands placed on us which were really tacky. Saw others wearing white or gold wristbands, just made me feel like we were cattle. You are told you can book the Italian/Madeiran/Japanese restaurant during your stay, you are not told to do this ASAP as they book up very quickly, therefore we were unable to visit any of them. Wanted to book a couples massage on a Friday and were told this is only on a Sunday - we were leaving on Saturday. Wanted to book any other massage - were told there was nothing available until Sunday. All inclusive "snacks" consisted of stodgy pizza, chips, chicken nuggets, cakes, salad - looked mostly like a school dinner. There were no actual snack foods available i.e crisps, popcorn, chocolate, biscuits, pretzels etc. No tea or coffee facilities in room. No room service available - not very 5 star at all. Towels in bathroom were harsh and rough, not good quality. Shower door had no sealant on the bottom so water would leak out onto the floor every time. Toilet paper was absolutely rubbish, so thin I could see my hand through it. I buy better quality toilet paper for my home! No slippers or spa/swimming towels in room, lady from spa had to contact housekeeping about it. Most furniture was old and dated. Breakfast was okay. Lunch was bland. Dinner was full of fish so overcooked it was hard. Food is not labelled adequately and does not pay attention to allergies or dietary requirements. It was often mis-labelled or not labelled at all. An omelette I ate ended up having ham in it - not suitable for my vegetarian diet at all and made me feel sick - this was not labelled as having ham in. This is a hotel where the elderly come to stay for a month or more on repeated visits - therefore most staff paid more attention to the "regulars", even bringing their buffet food to the table for them.

Plussat: Helpful staff, lots of space (about 30% full), plenty of food and drink. The weather was ideal for me - low to mid 20s all week.

Miinukset: Quality of cooking - food was mostly overcooked and recipes were ordinary, very little exciting or new.

Plussat: Sijainti erinomainen, huone asiallinen, aamupala erinomainen.Palvelu hyvä.

Miinukset: Viiden tähden hotelliksi sänkyjen patjat lähes ala-arvoiset, todella kovat. Pyyntöömme saada pehmeämmät patjat reagoitiin laittamalla ohuet kuluneet petauspatjat sänkyhimme. Tämä ei luonnollisestikaan auttanut. Ei täysin vastannut viiden tähden hotellia, kulunut.

Plussat: The suit junior.

Miinukset: nothing, everything was perfect.

Plussat: Good facilities, indoor pool, decent breakfast, comfortable suite, pretty reasonable value for money.

Miinukset: A little too far from the town centre.

Plussat: The hotel was exactly as described and also clean quiet and relaxing. The staff were friendly and helpful and any difficulties were quickly sorted out.I would be happy to use this hotel again.Value for money was very good.

Miinukset: A small suggestion is that the buffet evening meal was expensive if you had children with the charge at 25 Euros and half price for kids. There are too many excellent restaurants locally to make this viable. They should consider kids up to say 10 years eat free.

Plussat: Hotel rooms were big and clean. Big hotel, loads of facilities

Miinukset: Some of the staff were nice but some were quite rude. During 6 nights they never replaced the drinks in the mini-bar, which is quite weird.

Plussat: I really appreciated the spa services free of charge.

Miinukset: The price vs. the quality of the internet connection was too high.

Plussat: Lasten kanssa matkaillessa talvisesongin aikana lämmin uima-allas oli tärkeä ja illalla saimme pitää sen lähes omanamme ja lapset saivat käyttää jopa räpylöitä uidessaan,koska muita vieraita ei ollut. Suuri viihtyvyystekijä. Hotellissa oli vähän asiakkaita, joten se oli hiljainen ja meillä oli hyvä jr sviitti terasseineen, josta varsinkin lapset nautivat.

Miinukset: Aamiainen oli hyvä, mutta ravintolan ruoka mautonta ainakin huonepalveluun toimitettuna. Hotellin olisi paremmin pitänyt informoida vieraita ehdottomasta pulloveden käytöstä, ml hampaidenpesu. Normaalisti Madeiran vesi on ollut puhdasta, mutta nyt rankkasateiden ym jälkeen se ei ollut juomakelpoista. Saimme vatsataudin, koska huomasimme tiedotteen liian myöhään.

Plussat: Fantastic location - convenient for promenade, buses, restaurants, etc. Good sized rooms and wide range of facilities. Great pool area. Good choice at breakfast.

Miinukset: There were too many extra charges that really should be included in the room rate, e.g. tea and coffee sachets in room, use of room safe, etc.

Plussat: Excellent service, good location value for money

Miinukset: Very limited entertainment only piano and not every evening. Hotel was not fully occupied so may be beause of this but a whole floor with beautiful facilities not used at all.

Plussat: the good breakfast - the pool and gym facilities

Miinukset: the shower temperature was difficult to control. The whole hotel rather looks in need of an major renovation.

Plussat: The location .

Miinukset: To much noise from construction works on both sides of the hotel !!!

Miinukset: we felt that it did the not meet 5* standards that we usually find in such hotels

Plussat: Location was close to tourist attractions and had an amazing view.

Miinukset: Nothing, everything was absolutely perfect

Plussat: We had a room in the 8 floor with amazing panorama.(to the port/sea and the parts of the city spread out on the mountains slopes. The breakfast was very good and also the service of the staff.

Plussat: It was very easy to reach to the main street and the main part of the town. Airport shuttle station was very close and as far as the hotel itself was concerned, the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: The indoor sport and swimming were not complementary and the hotel guests should pay for it. I would prefer to pay a bit more in the beginning and use hotel facilities without payment for each day of using.

Plussat: Hyvä monipuolinen aamiainen, hyvä sijainti. En suosittele kuitenkaan huonojalkaisille, hotellille jyrkkä nousu. Parveke pienempi kuin oletin.

Miinukset: Ilmastointi ei toiminut kunnolla.

Plussat: The views. The staff was also very kind and helpful.

Plussat: As soon as you walk into the Hotel you feel at ease due to the beautiful lounge area surrounded by orange lights then you have the staff who are very well presented and are very polite. The rooms are also very nice pictures do not lie couldn’t ask for better for the price I paid. Location of the hotel is spot on as it’s about a 10-15 minutes walk from the city centre where there are lots of places to eat and have fun.

Plussat: Breakfast was varied, amazing views from the room and restaurant, parking is free, and overall a comfortable stay

Miinukset: The facilities - indoor pool and jacuzzi were against a fee despite the room rate already being on the costly side. Room wasn't cleaned for 2 days due to Christmas but at least a basic cocktail was offered free of charge.

Plussat: Hotelli sijainniltaan hyvä.Aamiainen erittäin hyvä.Näkymät kaupunkiin ja satamaan hienot.Uimaallas alue hyvä ja siisti.

Miinukset: Ilmanvaihto äänekäs.

Plussat: The hotel was very well situated (just 10 minute walk from the marina) and was excellent value for money. It was also very comfortable and clean.

Miinukset: No negative points

Plussat: Hotel with a beautiful view to the bay.Try local vines and liquers in the bar.Breakfast is also very good!

Miinukset: No.

Plussat: Merinäköala, avarat huone- ja julkiset tilat, hyvä aamiainen, viihtyisä ja kuntouintiinkin sopiva ulkouima-allasosasto.

Miinukset: 1)Lyhin reitti keskustaan on hyvin jyrkkä ja huonokuntoisille raskas ja jopa mahdoton. 2)Sisäuima-allasosaston maksullisuus - siellä ei näkynyt ketään. Vastaavissa hotelleissa ei peritä uintimaksua. Lisäksi sinne kulku on mutkikas ja epäviihtyisä.3) Tallelokeron maksullisuus.

Plussat: Views of the hotels, Modern hotel. All the staff is well organised and friendly, yet discreet.

Plussat: Free breakfast was good with lots of variety. The room was clean. The decor was really good. Also, it was easy to spot the hotel driving because the design was different from the rest of the buildings in Funchal. Overall a great hotel.

Miinukset: Free wifi worked well within the limited area of the lobby and pool deck. However, the constant need (every 30 minutes or so) to log-in with both username and password of "guest" on my portable device was frustrating at times, and, in my opinion, served very little purpose. But, it was free... so can't really complain too much, right?

Plussat: Very clean and comfortable with impressive views.

Miinukset: Unimaginative breakfast without any proper coffee.

Plussat: Sijainti on loistava ja allasalue mukava kohteen sijainnin huomioon ottaen.

Miinukset: Aulatilojen sisustus/arkkitehtuuri oli erikoinen verrattuna muihin hotellin tiloihin.

Plussat: Todella siisti ja puhdas hotelli erinomaisella aamupalalla. Ystävällinen henkilökunta ja uudet hienot huoneet ( ei kokolattiamattoja). Kylpylä mukava lisä jos kelit sattu olemaan huonot (suomalainen sauna löytyy). Ilmainen nettiyhteys ja koneet. Erinomainen vaihtoehto Funchalin keskustan tutkimiseen. Useita ravintoloita pienen kävelymatkat päässä.

Miinukset: Korkeuserot saattavat yllättää...

Plussat: Breakfast was very good

Miinukset: SPA should be open later then 7pm

Plussat: Hotelli on laadukas, upeat maisemat kaupunkiin ja merelle. Keskusta on lähellä. Hotellihuoneet ovat suuret ja siistit sekä kaikki toimii hyvin.

Miinukset: Huomattava korkesuero vanhaan kaupunkiin vaatii hyvää fysiikkaa. Hotelli on hyvä.

Plussat: Good position near town center

Miinukset: The information in the reception about buslines etc. was very poor. Heavy noise from traffic and day-and-night-barking dogs at neighbours

Plussat: Auringosta, lämmöstä, loistavasta aamiaisesta, hotellin hyvästä sijannista

Miinukset: Henkilökunta on jäykkää, palvelee kun pyytää, mutta ei tee sitä oma-aloitteisesti

Plussat: everything

Plussat: Huoneen sijainti. Hotellin sijainti. Ihana aamiainen. Ystävällinen henkilökunta.

Miinukset: En keksi mitään kielteistä.

Plussat: Breakfast really good choice sometimes lack of cups but other than that good. Rooms good design and pool area excellent. Loungers very uncomfortable

Miinukset: The sun loungers

Plussat: The breakfast was excellent everything labelled .My wife is gluten free and was extremely.pleased.The place is spotless tbh.Tge entertainment was good even though not many watched it.

Miinukset: My wife likes a bath but the shower was ok.We would and should have booked a sea view.I was charged €4.90 for my 1st large beer then later €3.90 in main bar.Happy hour made it £2.90.

Plussat: Kaikki niin hyvin, kuin olla voi!

Plussat: Aamiaisella runsaasti sieniä, vihanneksia, hedelmiä. Henkilökunta hotellin kaikissa pisteissä auttavaista, hymyilevää, kielitaitoisia. Hotelli ja huoneet siistejä. Ilmastointi ok.

Miinukset: Aamiaiselle kaipasin kalaa.

Plussat: Uima-altaalla on riittävästi auringonottotilaa ja aurinkotuoleja.

Plussat: Henkilökunnan ystävällisyys, lapsetkin huomioitiin. Aamupala oli runsas, myös hedelmiä tarjolla. Siisteys.

Miinukset: Hotellissa oli lastenallas, joka esittelyn mukaan piti olla lämmitetty, mutta se ei ollut sitä. Syvempi allas oli kyllä lämmitetty.

Plussat: Erinomainen aamiainen. Hotellin henkilökunta oli ystävällinen. Siivouspalvelu toimi moitteettomasti. Hotellin sijainti oli todella hyvä

Miinukset: Hotellihuoneen kalustus oli melko kulunut.

Plussat: Hotelli sopi hyvin lapsiperheelle. Hyvä sijainti, lyhyt matka joka paikkaan. Vuokra-autolle ilmainen tallipaikka hotellin tallissa loistava juttu. Kaikin puolin onnistunut loma koko perheelle.

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti.

Miinukset: Kovat patjat sängyssä, tosin muuallakaan patjat ei päihitä kotona olevia. Aamupala monipuolinen valikoiman suhteen, mutta salaatit, kurkut, paprikat ym. vihreät kasvikset puuttuivat kokonaan.

Plussat: The room was very comfortable and clean with a fantastic sea view and overlooking the pool. Entertainment every evening was very good and so was the breakfast buffet.

Plussat: the comfort of the room

Plussat: Pool both the indoor and outdoor

Miinukset: Older property shows age

Miinukset: The air con in the room was defective. This was not remedied despite several complaints. It was impossible to sleep in. The fan we were given for the last 2 nights made very little difference.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, we asked for help many times for example where to find best levadas and how to get there. Breakfast was good and there was something for everyone. Spa and swimming pool areas were great and big plus for Finnish sauna.

Miinukset: Spa treatments were very expensive and that’s why we didn’t use those services.

Plussat: The sea views, the breakfast and dining area and the evening entertainment.

Miinukset: Being half board we had dinner at the hotel. The choice was limited and the quality could be improved.

No Robes supplied for swimming Pool and pool access goes through public areas requiring one to change in rather inadequate changing room near pool. Hot breakfast always cold no matter what time in morning. Could have done with a dedicated Hotel Restaurant (not buffet)
