Encumeada

It was great, everyone was really polite and helpful and the breakfast was amazing and delicious!

Great place to spend the night in the mountains! The hotel itself is pretty basic but the shower was hot and the breakfast plentiful - what more do you need really?? The surrounding area is absolutely stunning too. Fantastic value for money all round!

Foi espetacular, mas o serviço de recepção deixo bmuito a desejar

Ottimo hotel appena sotto Boca de Encumeada (480 mt). Anche il bus ferma nelle vicinanze, ma il personale dà un passaggio, se serve. Gentilissimi Le camere sono grandi, spaziose, pulite e calde. Colazione ottima, nel nostro caso eravamo solo in 5 nell'hotel quindi per ogni extra si poteva chiedere. Ex uova strapazzate, pancetta. Pancakes od altro. Si possono ordinare panini da portare via (packed lunch), state attenti con il pane. Loro scrivono SANDWICH ed è con il nostro pane bauletto. Dite che volete il pan in cassetta fatto in casa. Quello è ottimo. Cena ottima con varie scelte. Prezzi ottimi. Per l'aperitivo c'è un piccolo bar con delle birre artigianali di Madeira. Ottimi. Consiglio vivamente questo albergo!

Back to my 'home' on Madeira 800 metres high in the mountains ... Made very welcome by all the staff by name (as usual). There has been much refurbishment of publc ares mirroring the lush greenery of the surrounding hills. The sun shone for the entire fortnight. Clouds flowing over the mountains can be spectacular. It was quiet at the weekends this time .. no wedding parties. The self service buffet gave a good choice. The salads were very good. The short, a la carte menu is 'work-in- hand' and was freshly made to order. Helpings were large. My reservatioon for next year was made before I left.

We stayed here for just the one night on our walking holiday. What a stunning location. Our dinner was included and what an absolutely fabulous buffet selection. We sat on the terrace in the evening. Our rooms had balcony's and the beds were very comfy. Again a great breakfast selection.
