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.

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.

Good little hotel in machico
The hotel is good, just needs a bit of maintenance here and there. Clean but the furniture are a bit old.
Overall I had a good stay. Breakfast is good as well!

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.

There is no parking, despite what the description says. If the manager had not given me her personal space, which was very nice of her, you can’t bring a car to this hotel. Public parking is there but always full. Very dated and basic, but you might compare to the price.

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.

Property is very dated and all fixtures are in need of replacement including the mattress, bathroom fittings, floor, curtains. On site parking is NOT available as advertised and to get free parking you need to park at the Marina several hundred yards away.

This hotel was a disaster.
The room is actually in the attic/garret of the building which was « renovated ». The room is also used to store mattresses and cots which made the room not very comfortable. The bathroom was not clean and we found cockroaches in the room!
I would rather sleep in the car next time.
