Loved my room Great views sunrise and moon at night all aligned with my room at this time of year! Cleaned everyday. Nice balcony. Il be coming back wen I return to funchal

The smell in my bathroom through the drains The reception was quite slow and I was made to queue twice in a long queue wen getting my bag from storage check in. Then had to queue again once I had it rather then see me. Was kind of annoying as was ages overall. The breakfast was rammed 5 mins from opening. Needs more seating in there or allow to get breakfast n go elsewhere with it which I wasn't given as an option.

I will start by saying that this hotel exceeded my expectations! After reading reviews , I was expecting it to be really old, unfriendly staff with at least clean rooms. It was a family holiday of 10 of us so I have prewarned everyone not to expect much as it's 3 start hotel. From the moment we have stepped in the reception I was like wow, it doesn't look old at all. Receptionist was really friendly and happy to help ( it was midnight when we checked in ). Rooms are decent size and very clean and yet again it didn't feel old nor there was a smell. Beds are comfortable and clean. Room was all set up for toddler and crib already provided ( we once had to wait in the 5* hotel for the crib to be brought in our room even thought they knew we are with the baby) so well impressed. We ate breakfast few times during our stay and it was good! It was everything you would want for breakfast: fresh bread, juice, coffee, all types of freshly made eggs, pastries, cheese, had, veggies and fruits! Perfect way to start the day! Hotel has entertainment every evening and the folklore on Wednesday was great! The best of all I have to admit! Swimming pools are good and are cleaned everyday, there is sauna that we have used one morning as it was raining outside. Location is perfect, one bus to get to city centre and it's only like 5 stops away, we have even walked few times. The hotel is up the hill and you have to walk to the hill or there is steps which we didn't mind and I would stay it's quite unique as you get beautiful views from the roof terrace. Overall we had a great stay and I would come back to this hotel.

I think the only thing that we didn't like is that the roof terrace is only open till 11pm. It's really lovely there to just sit and enjoy the view and few drinks but we have been asked to leave as it's closes. One evening it was something past 10pm and they came and said that they are closing roof top. But it was only our group on the terrace so perhaps it's easier to close it then wait for us to leave. It might be different story of there were more people on the terrace.

The pool and the the terrace bar were lovely and it was well located to access Funchal! Reception were super lovely and help suggesting tours for visiting more of the island.

The property is in a set of three - this wasn't particularly clear on arrival and we didn't realise it was up quite a steep hill! (Nothing can be changed about that though)

Due to force majeur the hotel were unable to provide the self catering studio that we'd booked however they did inform us in advance & compensated us well by offering us half board for the duration of our stay. The staff were lovely, patient & friendly. Breakfast & dinner are buffet style with daily variations & on the whole or meals were very nice. The hotel is in a good location not far from the centre of Funchal with its many attractions. Also there are numerous car hire places nearby which would be a good option if staying there for a few nights as while parking is available, the car park is quite small, with the result that a after a day out we had trouble finding a space. There is no lift from the underground car park & the ramp is very steep! To sum it up, we enjoyed this hotel but might do things a little differently if we are to stay there again!

Liked the facilities at the property, Swimming Pool was available, Balcony in our room was nice, the courtyard although was not very big was decent enough to take a stroll. Breakfast was great. Roof top also have a nice terrace to sit and relax , good to view sunset.

Tv in the room not working and we were travelling with Kid, so we felt the need for the same, Charging points was available in one side of the bed, would have been nice to have 2 charging point on both side of Bed. Kitchen was there but it would have been nice to have some paper kitchen towel as well. A bit far from city center so you would need taxi to go to city center.

We stayed at Dorisol Mimosa hotel for a week and we really enjoyed everything about our stay. Our room was cleaned thoroughly everyday. Breakfast had plenty of options. We had an amazing view overlooking the ocean and the city of Funchal, which was the star of our stay. The studio was fully equipped and made our stay cosy - had a lot of useful kitchen tools, microwave, kettle, electric hobs, etc.

We liked everything. I saw people complaining about the hotel being up on the hill. It can get a little tiring having to walk up and down on it. However this is in no way the hotel's issue. Funchal is full of hills so be prepared for it as it's going to exhaust you eventually.

We chose this hotel because of breakfast and parking. We got what we expected. Parking is available indoor or outdoor and you need to book it upfront. I ´m not sure how they organize the reservations because once we had to wait quite a long time to have a free parking place. The breakfast selection was rich, I recommend going right at 7:30 so you will find the table. Overall we were satisfied. We did not use swimming pools so I cannot say anything about it.

The walls are really thin but they cannot change it.

Loved the views from the room, the pool area and general facilities ( tennis court, pool table and lounge areas). The reception staff were exceptional and probably rank as the most welcoming, helpful and professional staff I have ever met. They were devoted to offering a great service and you got the impression that nothing would be too much trouble. Nice size room, good storage space and a great little kitchen area tucked away. Fantastic roof terrace!

Unfortunately, the position of the beds was different to the photographic information on the hotel: the headboard was on the exterior wall which meant i) you could not see the view, ii) one ( twin) bed was pushed alongside the balcony window and got extremely warm when the sun was on the balcony (!), iii) same bed's view of the TV was also obstructed by the corner window arrangement. I imagine that somehow the electrics dictated where the beds had to go, but it was a real shame as the views ( and not overheating in bed!) are such an important part of a holiday. One other thing worth noting for anyone with restricted mobility: the Dorisol is up a steep incline. Great if you're trying to work off a big dinner, but a killer if fragile or elderly.

Three pools ( one with a bar, one indoor and one not so busy where one could relax with a book), small fitness room, many lounges where one could relax, many TV channels also from other countries (for example we could watch sportschau from Germany), nice small balcony with a table and two chairs, the bathroom was modern and comfortable, buffet for breakfast and dinner were really good especially for the price, breakfast was always more or less the same but still with enough choice, dinner was.more.versatile and most of the things we ate where pretty tasty, definitely good for the price). There was always a little show at the evening. The internet wa good. We could use a.possibity to enter the cantine before official breakfast times when we had to leave early and have some cereals and coffee.

The safe was.not included in the price,.we had to pay extra (1,8€ /day), You could see pretty big cockroaches once for a.while but I can imagine it's hard to avoid them there also plenty of ants bit it was ad not bad that we would fell unco.fortable to eat there. Kitchen was not good equipmed, I suppose they don't control it regularly and the Items just disappear... We didn't need it as we had a half board which Wal more than enough food for the day but if you want to cook it might be problematic

Excellent location, nice staff, outdoor and indoor pools. Live shows every night are ok. The breakfast was pretty good, everything was very clean and tidy. Overall very good value for your money.

Outdated and worn rooms and furniture, no AC in the room so it could get hot in the summer. (Altough there was a ceiling fan). We went in January so it wasn't a problem. The roof bar was closed and there was no mention of this anywhere.
