Hotel Royal Savoy

Very dated hotel. Not worth the €300+ per night. Disappointed to find it’s a timeshare complex. What’s described as executive suite is actually a dated timeshare apartment. Breakfast is very dated and no alcohol a carte option. Omelette, cold bacon, fried bread, tinned fruit on offer. In fairness, there’s an egg station,some fresh fruits and baked goods, but these are the bears minimum you’d expect. It was a very dissatisfying stay, cost over £1500 for 5 nights. I expect much much more for that money. There was also heavy and loud construction work going on all day next door as they demolished an old hotel. e were never made aware of this.

Wifi is poor and Tuesday dinner is really bad

Fabulous location convenient for walking into town or walking to the Lido area. Outdoor pools at sea level and also an indoor heated pool. Excellent breakfast spread with eggs cooked fresh before you. On the downside the hotel is pretty expensive and is largely a time share place so more timeshare people than actual hotel guests. There is nightly entertainment. Mainly singers and musicians. Quality is fairly low and after a while became counter productive. This is the second time we have stayed at the hotel but feel the quality although excellent is borderline in terms of justifying the price.

Our first time in Madeira and what a wonderful experience staying at the Royal Savoy was. From the moment we arrived we were looked after and nothing was too much trouble. The facilities at the hotel were fantastic - with 3 different pools to choose from to keep the children entertained. The food was sublime with a wide choice at breakfast and different themed nights for dinner. If eating in the hotel is not your thing, The hotel is located within walking distance or a short taxi to many different restaurants and bars. Cannot recommend the Royal Savoy highly enough!

The stay was lovely other than the hotel rooms being very dingy. We paid for 2 junior suites. I think they were overpriced as the fittings were very basic and for a suite the room was small. The only criticism I have of service is that at check out we weren't asked how our stay was. I would have mentioned the above point if we were asked.
