"We had a pool suite for a family of 4, and the room was enormous and so luxurious. The bed was very comfortable, and my children said that the sofa bed was too. We absolutely loved the pool on the balcony. Breakfast was very busy, and an amazing number of guests somehow manage to drop food on the floor. The staff were quick to clean it up and replenish the food. We had buffet dinner once and that was really nice. There was a good selection of food that was constantly topped up. The pools were...

"After nearly a week of hiking in Madeira, I booked a stay at the Allegra as a treat to unwind and relax and it did not disappoint. The hotel is kept in impeccable condition, the staff are INCREDIBLY kind and helpful, breakfast was outstanding and the pool is beautiful. It is a little out of the way from the action in Funchal so I wouldn’t have wanted to stay the entire time here but if you’re looking for a place to get away and relax, this is for you. "

"Wonderful dinner and breakfast with amazing choice. Room decor not to our taste, a bit dark generally and we had to keep curtains closed to keep room cool, despite blinds, but otherwise spacious, well equipped and clean. Very comfortable beds. Staff mostly very helpful. Spa might need a refresh? Lovely rooftop terrace and bar with great views. 20 minutes mostly level walk to the old town and cable car. For us, this hotel had a city break vibe rather than resort, with little greenery but there...
