The hotel is located about 5 min walk from the village center, adjacent to a large restaurant that appears to be a popular stopover on day trips from Funchal. Rooms are quite nice, with wooden floors, a balcony with a view over the village and the sea, and comfortable beds. The rooms have a TV, but no fan/airconditioning (it's quite... More

Stayed here two nights as part of walking holiday. The hotel is rather isolated in a small sprawling village in the north of the island but would be OK for a coup;e of nights if touring by car. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. Bedrooms were average, clean and comfortable but cold in February! There is a small indoor... More

The rooms are very busy and state of repair poor. The corridor have mould and plaster swelling. The hotel is full of chlorine small. O Colmo Hotel... More

The four stars definitely comes from the facilties - pool, lifts etc rather than the... More

There are some interesting antiques and art in the public areas. There is a nice small indoor pool and health area, a good and... More
