Quintinha São João Hotel & Spa

Excelente servicio, hermosas vistas al jardín y gran desayuno. El único aspecto negativo fue que el hotel estaba un poco anticuado y justo en medio de reformas (¿fuera?).

Just a lovely place to base a holiday in Madeira in. The staff were endlessly helpful and always friendly and unhurried . The restaurant served reasonably priced excellent food all served by knowledgeable, friendly front of house staff , The beautifully maintained gardens were a joy to spend time in with a surprisingly good variety of birds and butterflies to enjoy and photograph.

This is one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. The room was beautifully furnished with comfortable bedding and nice towels and the general areas are very well kept. Indeed, there was a bit of painting going on while we were there without too much inconvenience for the guests. The pool area was also very nice. Breakfast was excellent. We did have one dinner at the hotel restaurant with most items done slightly more than we prefer it. Good wine list and wine recommendation on the other hand. Centre of Funchal is walkable, though beware it is uphill on the return.

My wife and I have just returned from this lovely hotel for the 5 th time (& 2 nd so far this year). We can honestly say that this is the best hotel we have ever had the pleasure to stay at. The rooms are excellent and are a great size and are kept spotlessly clean. The decor and ambience of the whole hotel is beautiful, with lovely antique furniture. Staff in all aspects of the hotel are so professional and friendly. The choice of food for both breakfast and evening meal is superb. The restaurant quality of food is absolutely 5 star and served by such professional staff who go out of their way to ensure you are enjoying your meal. Felipe, Eduardo, Alexander and Rada in the restaurant all work very hard, constantly filling the breakfast buffet etc. The ambience is so tranquil and the tables are beautifully dressed with lovely table linen and cutlery. We feel that Jet2 do not recommend the hotel and the restaurant highly enough on the booking website. We cannot forget to mention Rosie in Guest Relations who is always on hand to offer advice on walks and and any other activities you wish to do. She also provides bus timetables etc. Sitting in the area outside the bar in the beautiful garden setting is so relaxing and tranquil and you have the benefit of the daily happy hour. My wife had a massage from Daniella (during our January stay) & she found it so relaxing. We are very much looking forward to our next stay during November this year. Thanks very much once again for such an enjoyable stay. The staff are such a credit to the owner Andre. I apologise for my previous Trip Advisor review where I spelled Andre incorrectly. We are always recommending the Quintinha de Sao Joao to others, however, perhaps we should stop doing this as it may result in us not being able to book for ourselves.

Wonderful small hotel,charming staff,comfy bed,plentiful and varied breakfast buffet. Daily bus transfer into town very welcome.taxis back up cheap and easily available. Rosie arranged some lovely trips around the island including a memorable Levada walk. What more do you need. Have just booked to come back next year for two weeks. Thank you everyone at Quintinha

One of the most delightful small hotels we have stayed in. Spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated with great attention to detail. All staff from the chamber maid to the general manager are friendly and efficient. Food very good. Courtesy bus going into Funchal and returning twice a day.

The Quintinha Sao Joao Hotel is a real gem. Lovely surroundings, spacious rooms and beautiful furniture. Great staff who are very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. The hotel made our visit to Madeira all the more memorable.

QSJ is an outstanding hotel located overlooking Funchal, 15 mins from the centre. The rooms and public spaces are to a high standard, helpful staff. The bedrooms are spacious and well equiped. We both ate in the hotel resturant and local dining places 10 minutes away opposite the ******. Would recommend QSJ as a 1st choice in Funchal.
