The staff were good, the room very clean, they were cleaning every day, the linen and towels have been changed,very clean.
The breakfast was good .
Thank you!
This hotel is in a great location and, has a good restaurant which offers a buffet breakfast with a great variety of things.
The rooms are neat and tidy and the views from some of them are spectacular.
I Would recommend for smaller groups, families and or solo travellers.
Me and my husband stayed at the dorisol estrelicia for a week, we really enjoyed it, friendly staff, comfortable, good option in the buffet breakfast. Recommend
This hotel is located at the top of a hill, so not for people with bad legs.
It is located in a quiet and peaceful area, so perfect for people who want peace and quiet.
The restaurant by the pool makes nice burgers, sandwiches, etc.
The pool is large enough to swim a few laps.
We enjoyed our 10 day stay, 3-4 of which were spent on the hotel grounds, the rest of the days, we spent on trips around the island.

The staff was very helpful and kind. The area was more "touristy" than expected. The hotel itself was outdated aside from the restaurants and lobby area. The room did not have ac so it was hot and musty. The bathroom was extremely outdated and did not seem very clean

Tired rooms
The hotel is a good cheap option with some pros and cons.
Pros - the outdoor pool area is nice and if interested in entertainment they have varying acts throughout the week. The breakfast is also really good with a wide variety of food on offer on the buffet.
Cons - a couple of times I spoke to the reception staff they were not very warm, barely looked at me or greeted me. Not all of them but a couple of them I felt like I was bothering them. The room I stayed in was tired with terrible sound proofing, people in the corridor sounded like they were in my room. I also had a towel in my room that was covered in fluff which when I picked it up and gave it a shake, so much fell off onto the floor mat it was very weird and I couldn’t believe a housekeeper put that towel in my bathroom for me to use.
This hotel was a great location for us with walkable access to downtown Funchal (about 30 minute walk). Good restaurants nearby and downtown.
Hotel is up on a hill (about 70 meters of considerable incline), so that was unexpected, but for us did not create an issue. Parking is limited at this property and we were not aware originally that you could reserve the parking ahead of time and for an additional fee (7 euro per day). The staff were very helpful however and offered off site parking to us nearby for the same fee. Again, not a problem for us, but may be an issue for some (150 meters away from the hotel).
Rooms were standard (we did not have a balcony), but this is not a very new property, so there is no air conditioning in the rooms. Good breakfast with good options and fresh bread and buns everyday. The property also offers dinner options on site, but we chose to eat outside of the hotel.
This was a good stay and we were thankful that when our flight got delayed we were able to stay at the hotel and our room for an additional night. The staff was helpful and even provided us with a kettle for our room (we did not bring our own as we came from Canada).
Very unhelpful and unpleasant front desk staff throughout our stay.
Room was poorly equipped, safe was broken, sliding balcony doors did not close properly, no fridge or basic room amenities.
Overall very disappointing stay. Only positives were the cleaning staff and the breakfast buffet staff (both of which could provide some training to the front desk and evening restaurant staff on customer service).

The public areas are modern and well maintained. Swimming pool area and terrace were lovely. Breakfast buffet was well stocked and co sat toy being refreshed. Staff friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the bedrooms and the corridors let the hotel down and need refurbishment and modernisation asap.
Horrible hotel. Unfortunately we had to stay here because our flights got canceled. Everything was absolutely disgusting the hotel rooms had bugs we had to switch rooms and the washrooms were gross.
The breakfast was another matter everything was cold and oily there were bugs running across the serving tables. The bread offered was as hard as rock and even the coffee was bad. No point in paying extra for breakfast when this is how it is. Especially with bugs on the serving counters of the buffet.
Please stay away this place is a health hazard.

Mixed feelings about this hotel
Staff are very friendly and professional. The hotel needs renovation though. The room was small. No air-condtioning. I had to leave the windows open at night due to the heat, unfortunately it can be noisy at night. Room had no balcony. Tenis court was decent. The gym was good, although access is limited. The area (Lido, Funchal) is great. Breakfast was not good.

Overall the property was pretty poor. The staff were nice enough however facilities were much lacking. The room was spacey but one of the rooms had no fan or air conditioning and so was too hot to sleep in. The location was not very accessible located at the top of a large hill and so getting luggage up was difficult. The hotel was noisy and one of the rooms was located with the window facing inwards towards a wall.
