Aspa - São Paulo Studios

Wonderful place central location easy to walk to the sights. Very friendly staff keen to assist with making your stay as enjoyable as possible. Great spacious apartment with kitchen, living room, bathroom and bedroom with very comfortable beds. Excellent breakfast with beautiful fresh made local produce all prepared by a wonderful chef who is so friendly it feels like you have a personal chef. Highly recommended and Madeira is such a wonderful destination can’t wait to revisit.

We had a lovely stay at Aspa studios! Beautiful old house that has been refurbished to suit the traveller's needs, at the centre of Funchal! We stayed for a week with my kids. The studio was very confortable and was kept spotlessly clean and tidy by Isabella, who was so sweet with us all!!! Looking forward to coming back!

Lovely, central and quiet place to stay. Great breakfast buffet. Stayed with friend and colleague for work for 4 days. Close to everything and very clean and we felt well looked after. Staff speak several languages and everyone was very welcoming.

I always book directly with the hotels as it provides a much better rate and this was my experience again. I booked through their website and the rates were much better than other online channels. The owner and his family are lovely people and they made every effort for my stay to be as comfortable as possible. As it was first time in Madeira I took the airport bus which dropped me right in the middle of Funchal centre at Le Vie shopping centre which is 3 minutes walk from the hotel. The hotel itself has a lovely boutique feel and i got a nice big bright room with a very commutable queen bed. I was greeted by the friendly hotel owner who was very kind to give me an overview of Madeira and Funchal and things to do. With the Portugese inspired breakfast in the morning I got to try some delicious local fruits, jams and other items .... I loved the location as there were many restaurants for dinner just down the road from the hotel and the old town and waterfront is just 5 minutes walk away ... For gym goers there is a GYM at Le Vie Shopping centre that have day passes. The hotel itself feels just like home and there is a cosy sitting area in the reception where you can sit and read a book (the wifi is strong too) I am extremely thankful for the hospitality of the owner and his family.... I will definitely return and stay here again :)

Great location. Great room. We stayed in room 104. I tried to email you, but you haven’t replied. There are two main serious issues with that room. First is the wash sink in the bathroom has a large leak from the plumbing. The second is one of the wall mounted bedside lights has scorch marks on the wall, which suggests loose or faulty lighting. These need to be rectified asap. The beds haven’t been pulled out in a long time, with thick dust under them. The extraction fan in the bathroom needs to be hoovered, to get rid of the thick dust in it. The rooms light fan was making some really weird noises. I would book again when these faults would be rectified.
