My 2 rooms were on the ground level next to the lobby. It was noisy until late at night. The room, furniture, kitchen and bathroom were all very old. The shower was in a bad shape. The restaurant and dinner buffet had very low quality food for fairly high prices. Much nicer restaurant are all around the hotel with good food and good services. The hotel is located in a great area though.

Noisy

Not ideal with building construction or demolition going going on, I came to relax, not have my head pounded by hammers, drills and dust.
Thankfully the reception team took pity on us and transferred us to another.
To have been advised in advance would have bee n a good idea, rather than attempting to sell transfers from the airport!

Check-in at 3:00pm after coming in 11:00am to notify needed parking. Came in 2:45pm to try get car parked in time for 3:00pm. Room was not ready until 3:15pm.

Parking lot is difficult and many unauthorized cars allowed in taking spots of paying customers. Very bad and this ultimately forced me to squeeze into a tight parking last night of trip. Causing damage to car just to get gas. Have not heard back from hotel management 2nd day after reporting in incident..

Plenty of places to eat if you want to outside of hotel.

Highly recommend sight seeing tours around the island.

Reasonable for price

This is what we would call a budget hotel. It's a bit tired in terms of decoration but adequate facilities. Friendly staff. We went on b and b tariff. Breakfast was basic self service. A bit more variety in the cooked breakfast would have been appreciated.

Building works alongside which started at 8am till 5.30. Didn't bother us too much as we're out all day.

If folk are on same tariff try La Bamba restaurant just down the road. We ate there every night bar 2. Excellent service and the steak. on stone and spaghetti vesuvian are to die for!!

Well located hotel

There was a very nice bar to the right of the hotel, belonging to it, which also did good food. There is a nice pool in the hotel and you can borrow a pool towel to use. The room was very quiet and the breakfast very good value for money. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There are lots of eating choices nearby and it is well located. It is about a 20 minute walk to town and there are also buses which go into Funchal or take you westwards. We had a lovely sea view. There is a comfortable lounge downstairs and plenty of seating areas. There is free entertainment every night at the top hotel in the group of 3.

Nice hotel/apartment in Funchal

Easy to get to via airport bus. The hotel is a short walk from the bus stop but is quite a hill climb... but then Funchal is all about hills.
Nice reception and staff. We stayed on the 6th floor so lift or stairs. Rooms look like the photos on the web, spacious with small kitchenette and balcony. We paid for part sea view which I'm glad we did. Although we had a small building site to the left we could see the hills of Funchal and the sea. Some of the balconies overlooked the swimming pool or the other hotel so we were glad for the view. Bathroom was ok but needed a new sealant around the bath and shower screen. It didn't bother us as it was functional.

We had bed and breakfast and the breakfast was ok, bit limited on choice but again was ok.

There were 2 outdoor pools and 1 indoor pool which were clean and lovely to sit round. There was a pool bar and drinks were very cheap so was good value.

Staff were lovely and helpful and there were some entertainment on every night.

The hotel was near the outdoor Lido on the promenade a short walk away and was really lovely. There are plenty of restaurants and bars nearby but not rowdy or noisy. The only problem with noise was from the road nearby but traffic was diverted down the road due to road works.
There was a local supermarket so we could get food in for lunch or dinner as there was a fridge and small cooker/microwave.
I would happily stay there again but the only big problem was no Air conditioning in the bedrooms.

Hard to find from instructions given

Initial thoughts on arrival were quite pleasing because we found the place!! and the staff were pleasant.On later inspection of the room we found that the shower was not workable due to the push-button switch being locked rock solid.The sink in the bathroom would not let the water out and the fan extractor did not work.The pedal bin was broken and the lid kept falling off.Breakfast was rather monotonously plain with no change to the menu and finding porridge next to the beans was a bit confusing because many people thought that it was badly cooked scrambled egg!!

A 70's Flasback.

The rooms were clean. Breakfasts were great! The staff at the breakfasts were wonderful! Handy fridge to keep your water bottles, fruit and food cool.
Washrooms good size and great water pressure.
Great little souvenir and snack shop on the lower floor.
Nice pool area to relax.
Lots of restaurants within minutes of walking. Love Antonio's Restaurant!

Regarding the design...Flasback to the 70's!
Felt like we were walking backing into the 70's though. Could use a big revamp. With an update it would improve the overall look. No air conditioning.... We were aware of that.
It was HOT. There were no fans.
The view was beautiful!
No shuttle to downtown as advertised. You will have to take a taxi....to Funchal approx. 8 Euros.
If you are not picky about overall appearance then this place is great for you. The photos on the site must have been taken many years ago,as its age is showing.

Arrived at hotel and had to struggle into the building with 2 cases and a double buggy up some stairs leading to reception where there was only 1 staff....received no offer of help. the room wasn't ready so had to wait about 30 mins with 2 babies that needed feeding. When asked if we could have hot water to make baby milk they said they couldn't provide this.
When the room was ready, there was no one to help with the luggage. The 2 single beds pushed together were dipped in the middle. the baby cot provided was dirty...no way would i put my babies in it. the small kitchenette had a horrible odour.

No guarantee of room booked

We booked a sea view room, but was put in room 3 ground floor, next to car park and near Reception. No view and noisy, apparently only room available at the time. Following several visits to Reception we were moved to 7th floor on the next day. Very good room, no complaints. Speaking to two other couples in the hotel, who had booked through online booking company, they had had a similar experience. A ground floor room until they complained. So be aware that there may be problems at peak times.

Great for couples

Great hotel for couples. Room was exactly what we wanted and the spa facilities were great, including free use of hot tub, sauna and indoor and outdoor pools! Hotel staff were happy to help when asked and the hotel was an easy distance from Funchal centre, either by bus for €1.90 or a pleasant 20 minute walk. Balcony view of the sea was incredible as was the view of Funchal from the rooftop. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

Great facilities, poor breakfast options.

Overall this hotel is pretty decent for the price. Most of the staff are friendly and helpful, which is great. Unfortunately they dont really do double beds which we didnt know when we booked, so the bed we were given was uncomfortable and not very easy to sleep on. Also, the buffet breakfast they serve is really bad - we had it one morning and vowed not to again.
The hotel facilities were great - indoor and outdoor pool, jacuzi, spa, gym and sauna and you had access to the facilities in the other 2 Dorisol hotels (3 in the same 'road') too so we made the most of the games room which was really fun.

Great stay and very happy.

Had a lovely stay in this hotel, very clean, comfortable room, quite spacious with a spotless bathroom and a nice little kitchenette. Not the height of luxury, no, but a great option for people on a lower budget. Staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was also good with plenty of choice and hot options every morning. Also in a very good location- 20 minutes walk into central Funchal though there is a regular courtesy bus, and just 5 minutes from the sea, supermarkets and lots of eating options. Overall very happy.

Hotel Dorisol Buganvilia, Funchal

The location of the hotel is good - close to the Lido area, and with lots of supermarkets and restaurants in the neighbourhood.
We booked the hotel without breakfast, so we cannot comment on the quality of the food, The kitchenette in the room was fine, and we made our own breakfast in the room. In the evening we usually dined in one of the other restaurants in the area.
The staff of the hotel was excellent. Very polite, helpful and service-minded.
Although the matresses could have been better (especially the iron in one of the beds was very close to the body) and the hotel generally could need some paint here and there, we find that the standard is value for money. It is also a plus point that you can use the facilities in the two other hotels in the chain.

We were promised ocean view by hotels.com but in the first place got a room on 2.floor. But the day after we were moved to 8.floor, and had a wonderful ocean view and afternoon/evening sun. - And special entertainment by some doves, which could not understand that we did not want to feed them. In the end we managed to pursuade them to fly away thoug - until next time!

The hotel has a free shuttle-bus-service to Funchal Centre - except on sundays and holidays, and unfortunately we were there in Easter - But it was very easy - and cheap - to use the local busses, which were just downhill the hotel - as were the Sightseeing busses.

We would not hesitate to book the same hotel again some other time.

Basic 3*, If budget allows would upgrade

Good points - Regular Bus Shuttle to town, Location, Clean room

Points for Improvement - (1) More comfortable beds, (2) No sharp sticking out corner of beds that you hit your legs on as you walk by (3) shower curtains so water doesn't end up all over the bathroom floor, the shower guard is ineffective (4) Breakfast was adequate, but nothing special. I was expecting much more nice fresh fruit. Juices were not nice.

Next door is a another building site for another hotel I guess, Didn't disturb us but might if you are a light sleeper and want a lie in in the morning

Taxi from airport was 38 Euros which was a bit much then we should have paid. recommend getting an airport transfor arranged which cost us 25Euros on the way back

Very good hotel

The room was very spacious and had even a kitchenette. There was a balcony overlooking the swimming pool which was very pleasant.
The hotel is very clean and has a great atmosphere, I would definitely go back there.
The only low point was breakfast, a lot of choice but poor quality, especially considering food in Portugal is of a high standard.

Everything was just great - the staff, the food and the room was just big and clean on the daily basis what was not even needed it cos we didnt spend much time inside. The swimming pool is good and an extra that we have access to the 2nd swimming pool on the same group, different hotel. The SPA was an extra for the coldish days.

La chambre était propre et spacieuse. Par contre, le personnel change les serviettes seulement si elles sont dans le lavabo. Les 2 piscines sont grandes et propres. Le personnel est agréable. Le bémol est la restauration qui est moyenne même si les plats chauds restent variés mais les desserts et entrées sont toujours un peu pareils.

L'hôtel est très propre, les chambres sont agréables, le personnel sympathique.
Le petit déjeuner est copieux, la qualité moyen+.
L'espace Spa est très joli et agréable. Le sauna pas assez haut en température (60°). Le seul vrai point négatif est l'insonorisation. Le matin, à plusieurs reprises on avait l'impression que les voisins dérangeaient leur chambre.
Sinon très bon séjour

Voyage en famille avec mon fils de 9 ans. Les studios sont particulièrement spacieux pour trois personnes, avec une grande salle de bain appréciable.

En revanche, l’équipement de la cuisine est limité , prévu pour deux personnes seulement et non pour trois : deux couteaux, deux fourchettes, deux assiettes… ce qui est insuffisant.

Petit déjeuner splendide , excellent rapport qualité /prix
Il faut compter environ 40 minutes à pied pour rejoindre le centre-ville. Les places de parking étant très limitées pour les 3 résidences , pensez à réserver à l’avance.

The hotel staff were incredibly friendly, and I am very grateful for that. They even allowed me to have a late check-out. The room was spacious, but unfortunately, it had no view — just a view of the parking lot. I absolutely loved the gym and the indoor swimming pool, and I also found the breakfast to be amazing! Overall, I had a great time and would definitely stay again.

La chambre a besoin d’une rénovation !

Points positifs : chambre très propre, matelas confortable, serviettes de toilette de qualité, kitchenette, balcon, bon petit-déjeuner, jacuzzi au top. Pas de vue mer : nous étions au 2ème étage : un toit cachait la vue. Dommage que la piscine intérieure ne soit pas suffisamment chauffée.
Beaucoup de restaurants à proximité.
Nous avons utilisé l’application bolt pour les transferts aéroport et nous déplacer sur l’île.
Notre vol partant tôt le matin, on a pu prendre notre petit-déjeuner très tôt en prévenant la réception la veille. Séjour agréable !

Je ne suis absolument pas contente de mon séjour dans cet hotel ! Nous avons trouvé plusieurs cafard dans notre chambre, je prends plusieurs photo et je me dirige vers l’accueil. Un monsieur me réponds qu’il va appeler quelqu’un. 45min… toujours rien. Je descend à nouveau pour relancer. Une personne passe après quasiment une heure pour ramasser un seul cafard et le mettre dans la poubelle commune de l’hôtel !!!!!! Comment vous dire que niveau hygiène c’est 0 !! On m’explique que les autres sont en dessous du réfrigérateur donc il va mettre du spray. Je leurs demande une nouvelle chambre car il était inimaginable de dormir dans la même chambre, on m’a dit que c’était pas possible !! Puis au bout de 10 min ils ont décidés de nous mètre au RC ! A fuir

Die Unterkunft war okay, die Matratzen waren gut und das Personal freundlich, leider war die nicht besonders sauber, recht alt, keine Klimaanlage und sehr sehr laut.

Ohne Klimaanlage konnte man mit geschlossenen Fenstern nicht schlafen (Reisezeit August, ca 30-32•), aber mit offenen ging es wegen der Lautstärke nicht. Schade. Das ist vermutlich ein Party-Viertel, wir haben es nicht gewusst.

The hotel is central located near bars and clubs. Small supermarkets are also nearby. Clean room and good housekeeping.
The breakfast was chaotic, no glasses, plates or cups because they still has to wash them. No basic breakfast or solution was given for people who had to leave early.
We also had dinner at the hotel. The warm food, especially the meat and fish, was terribly dry and overcoocked. We only took the 'fresh' salades.
Small scrimps hidden is salades without mentioning it on the foodcards. 1 bottle of tap water of 0,75L costs 3 euro!!!!!!
No airconditioning in the room.

Das Hotel liegt in zweiter Reihe am Hang. Parkplatz kostet 7€ am Tag. Wenn man mit dem Auto unterwegs ist, ist es billiger, einen Parkschein zu ziehen, da von 20 Uhr bis 8 Uhr kostenfrei geparkt werden kann.
Das Hotel ist sehr sauber, Zimmer groß und zweckmäßig ausgestattet.
In der Anlage gibt es innen und außen Pool, Fitness, Sauna, Tennis, Sonnenterrasse, Musikzimmer, Bar.
Jeden Abend wird Unterhaltung geboten.
Frühstück Buffet ist reichhaltig und abwechslungsreich. Auch Soja- und Hafermilch zur Auswahl. Das Personal flink und freundlich. Abendessen gute Qualität mit landestypischen Speisen, zwei Fischgerichte, ein Fleisch, ein vegetarisch.
An der Rezeption sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.
In der Umgebung mehrere Bars und Restaurants. Die Bushaltestelle ist 5 Min. zu Fuß entfernt. Für 2€ ist man in 10 Min. Fahrt im Zentrum.
Preis-Leistung ist sehr gut, wir können es empfehlen.

Larm

Hotellet har 12 etager og under vores ophold virkede elevatoren ikke. Så er der langt til 8 sal med kufferter. Derudover er hotellet MEGET lydt. Så når overboen gik på toilettet kunne det høret. Det sammen med kufferter med hjul osv larm var der. Og så var køleskabet i rummet med kompressorer som larmede helt vildt.
