Hotel Escola

Pequeno hotel (20 quartos, todos, exceto 4, têm vista para o mar) Localização perfeita, na periferia do Funchal, acesso muito rápido à via rápida. Estacionamento privativo do hotel (13 vagas), se for simples, estacionamento fácil na rua, havia muitas vagas vazias todos os dias. Supermercado a 50m (19h-21h) Paragem de autocarro (N 02) para ir ao centro da cidade a 100m Praia de calhau abaixo (na volta é preciso subir 65m de altitude). Difícil entrar no mar sem sapatos de canyoning. Felizmente, nas proximidades existem piscinas naturais com acesso ao mar por escada (5,5€/pessoa, metade do preço a partir das 18h). Quarto muito bem decorado, éramos 3, havia espaço suficiente, 4 tomadas elétricas para carregar aparelhos, muito espaço para colocar as coisas no banheiro; Negativos (menores): Faltam a chaleira e o secador de toalhas na varanda. Jantar à la carte (prato principal 15,50€, sopa 2,50€, sobremesa 3€) e não buffet, mas a refeição é muito boa. Café da manhã. Serviço um pouco lento. À noite há um pouco de barulho (cachorros latindo no prédio ao lado e carros subindo com o barulho dos motores na rua), não é muito importante, mas se você tem sono leve, leve os protetores de ouvido. Piscina rasa. No geral - excelente estadia, eu definitivamente voltaria.

Estivemos aqui para almoçar várias vezes e achamos o ambiente muito divertido. É uma escola de hotelaria. Os jovens alunos são treinados aqui durante as refeições. A comida é servida em estilo buffet na hora do almoço. É excelente e rico.

Quarto agradável, embora antiquado. Bela vista para o mar. Café da manhã ótimo, embora sempre igual. O jantar varia.Hadva uma ótima refeição em nossa última noite. Teria gostado de uma chaleira no quarto para fazer bebidas. O bar nunca estava aberto

Hotel fabuloso, excelente relação qualidade / preço (pagamos 225 € por 3 noites). A vista mar é muito agradável, não sendo estragada por uma barra de construção ou outra. O café da manhã é fabuloso, as frutas frescas mudam dependendo do dia. Só posso recomendar este hotel, não experimentamos a piscina devido à falta de tempo. Sempre tivemos um lugar de estacionamento disponível, e o hotel fica a cerca de dez minutos a pé da praia Formosa e a pouco menos de 10 minutos do centro do Funchal.

Our holiday at the Hotel Escola Funchal in November was amazing in every way. Staff were amazing, housekeeping looked after us every day, the reception staff were full of information and extremely helpful. Dinner was limited choice but was excellent quality so much that we ate most nights. The restaurant was quiet at night but it gave us a chance to speak with staff and find more information about the island and its attractions. All staff spoke a variety of languages which is a great asset to the hotel. Rooms were fine, clean and had good internet connection throughout the hotel. The air condition in our room was first class. We had lovely balcony where we sat most evenings looking out to sea. Hotel is at the end of one of the bus routes from the city centre, depending on traffic congestion it took 15-25 minutes. The service was very regular & dry reasonably priced, a single fare into the city was €1.95 however, one, three,five & seven day tickets were available. We purchased 2 five day tickets at €16.50 each . This ticket allowed you to use any of the city bus routes and these were numerous. All being well we will back to Hotel Escola as it has left us with so many memories.

Everything was bad! I only booked due to the good reviews. DO NOT listen to the review rating. It was the worst hotel ever! There wasn't any Aircon. Outside was cooler than our room. We complained and they said there's nothing they can do. I told them we would leave on the first day and wanted our money back. They only then gave us an extra fan. The fans only blew the hot air around the room. Our body's were constantly covered in sweat. We were bitten a lot due to the huge vents and creatures coming out of the vent. I tried to book other hotels and was happy to pay more but they didn't have any rooms. We ended up spending the whole day out and only went there to try and get an hour sleep. The last night really was the icing on the cake. A lizard was running around our room and it came from the vents. They tried to catch it but couldn't. That was another night were we didn't sleep. They tried to make out it's because we left the doors open. We never even opened it due to the amount of bugs that were already in the room. There was no point even eating the breakfast due to nothing being covered. Flys were all over it. The trip went from bad to hell really quick. DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL. I need a holiday to recover from the nightmare.

Nous revenons d’un séjour dans cet hôtel et c’est la deuxième fois. La première fois, nous étions restés 6 jours, cette fois-ci 2 semaines fin janvier début février. Nous avons fait de nombreux hôtels 4 et 5 étoiles et nous pouvons dire que c’est le premier à ce niveau concernant les repas. Tout est bon, y compris dans les buffets c’est très dur de choisir, et nous sommes pourtant particulièrement difficiles. Le personnel est très attentionné, accueil, service et ménage, et d’une grande gentillesse. Nous reviendrons dans cet hôtel lors de notre prochain voyage à Madère, c’est sûr.
