I booked this bed & breakfast based on excellent reviews here on Tripadvisor. But was extremely disappointed with the experience. It's like Fawlty Towers without the laughs. I could see that the hosts were trying really hard to be hospitable – they just didn't succeed. The room was tiny, not enough room to swing a kitten. As for the common... More

This is an awesome place, friendly service, minutes from downtown. However, if you're renting a car, there is no parking for several blocks, the closest street parking is close but be prepared to wake up to insert a coin before 8 am every day. There is local auto park hopefully they can work out a deal to park there, I... More

I can't speak too highly of this bed and breakfast. Had been staying for the previous 6 nights in one of the most expensive hotels on the island so was expecting a bit of a `come down'. Our en suite room on the ground floor of a house on a quieter side street oposite the main Pensao was large and... More

Upon arrival to the Pensao Mirasol we were greated warmly by Mr. Horta. Mr. Horta was very helpful with offering us information about the hotel and the Island. He also served a hearty breakfast of eggs, bread, jam and coffee. The hotel was a little outdated but with old world charm. It was located on a busy street without sidwalks... More

If you're looking for a place to stay in a great location, with a clean, tidy room, friendly and helpful hosts, great value for money, then come to this b&b. Ok it doesn't have a swimming pool, room safe or tea-making facilities but if, like us, you are going to be out and about all day and really just want... More

First, what Mirasol is not. It's not a modern luxury hotel with all mod cons. Frankly, it's a bit dowdy. So why would I gladly go back there and recommend it without hesitation to friends? Well, there's the location. It's right on the edge of the Old Town, five minutes walk from the sea and three minutes from Funchal's last... More

We booked this family-run guesthouse after reading the reviews on Tripadvisor, and we weren't misled. The house was originally owned by a local dignitary, and has a lot of charm, with solid wooden banisters, tall ceilings and a well-proportioned dining-room. The family are all very pleasant, and speak several languages between them. This was handy, because we were with my... More

Pensão Mirasol is good if you are looking for a cheap place to sleep and visit the center. The owner is very friendly and caring for his clients. The breakfast is ok and included in the price. The rooms are ok, although old fashion in the furniture. It had a very nice balcony with a great view! One bad point:... More

This small family hotel is an ideal base for hikers as it's close to different bus stops and the funicular, plus there's a car rental just two houses away. The hotel doesn't have any of the big resort amenities for beach vacation (i.e pool, sea access), but provides a home like feeling due to its smallness and super friendly service.... More

If you want good value accommodation, ensuite rooms and breakfast, this Guest House will provide you with that. If you want transfers from and to the airport included, if you stay for seven days or more, this Guest House will provide you with that. If you want a friendly host, who is more helpful and knowledgable than the local Tourist... More
