Madeira Island, Portugal hotel rooms at the Barcelo

"We had a view of the cable cars going by and part of the sea from our balcony. Turim is a clean, beautiful, modern hotel convenient to everything in Funchal. The staff is very friendly and helpful, very responsive to our needs. The 80's guitar concert on the rooftop bar was wonderful!"

"The rooftop pool offered an amazing view, perfect for relaxing "

"Very good location near historic old town. A few minutes walk from the Aerobus (airport to town public transport) stop. Breakfast buffet was good. Staff were all very welcoming and gave advice on local trips etc.... Glad we chose to stay here."

"The room we were given on the 4th floor was extremely dated & needed an urgent overhaul! The drawers inside the wardrobe were old & falling apart. The safe wouldn't work. The balcony furniture was like something out of the 1960's. The carpet was old & dirty looking & the shower knob came off in our hands! I realise the building is iconic & is a listed building but this room was not reflective of a supposed 5* hotel! The hotel was not cheap either. The staff at the bar were friendly & welcoming however the reception staff were spoke with were the opposite, unfriendly & dismissive. If your room is near the city it is VERY noisy! "

"Very good "

"Very good breakfast. Good variety."

"Helpful reception staff, good sized pool area, lovely cleaning and catering staff. Excellent buffet breakfast. Location is great and a superb central point for discovering the beautiful island of Madeira."

"Great!"

"Fantastic breakfast buffet, glorious views from the Junior Suite. Ventilation in the room was poor though - the Aircon was a little underpowered. The beds were huge, but provide little back support. Wonderful location, perfect for both relaxing holidays and hiking holidays. I will return one day."
