The Royal Savoy

It’s our second time in Funchal and currently staying (fourth of seven days) at the Royal Savoy. We are very impressed with the hotel - the staff, room, amenities and food are absolutely fantastic! The location is just perfect (walking distance to Marina and promenade/Marina) which we really love. The hotel is beachfront and the spa area is excellent. We feel so safe and the hotel is very clean. Thanks to the amazing staff of Royal Savoy for making our stay a memorable and special one. We will definitely stay here on our next visit.

Overall a very pleasant hotel. Location great and parking inexpensive. A warm welcome and room upgrade at check-in (nice!) and Fernando at the door brightened up my son's day every time we passed by. Room cleaning excellent and housekeeping staff went over and above with nice little touches. As far as I could tell all rooms have a great view and a little balcony (this was ours on second floor - see pic). Excellent pools although changing rooms not very accessible/well-signposted (e.g none in the indoor pool area other than a toilet, but we did find some on our last day at the furthest away outdoor pool). Only negative for me was the food quality was just okay and and I found the waiting staff in the piano bar not to be very attentive, and outside at the pool bar they were a bit surly. Everyone else was great! We were the youngest guests by some margin, most others seemed to be the coach trip crowd, if that's something you care about (we didn't).

Superb hotel with full facilities. Good location for walking into Funchal centre - 10-15 mins. Lots of places to eat nearby. Worth getting a high up room with balcony and sea view.

A wonderful place to be for fabulous service, a perfect location, and to be close to the sea but also excellent facilities on site. Just one comment about the food. The buffet breakfasts I do not believe could be bettered anywhere else. The restaurant meals were perfectly cooked but I believe a bit uninspired, I do think there should be more concentration on Madeira, and Portuguese dishes.

Still 5* staff and facilities. When an arriving guest goes and hugs a pool area staff as an old friend, you've seen something special about a place. Yes the rooms are a tad faded but always well maintained and clean. The whole place is spotless. The food is fine. The location is fantastic.... and the staff are excellent
