What guests think

At Hotel Solar Bom Jesus, travelers highlight its very convenient location near Madeira Airport, with easy access to Santa Cruz’s beach and town, making it a practical base for late arrivals, early departures, and short stopovers.

Rooms are generally spacious with comfortable beds, but some feel dated, a few areas are noisy, and multiple guests reported air conditioning not working properly. Cleanliness feedback is mixed: many found the hotel very clean, yet recurring comments mention mildew odors, bathroom hairs, showers needing a deep clean, and occasional insects. Facilities include a pleasant pool, and breakfast is generally well liked, though pool towels are not provided and the on-site restaurant can be closed or run a limited menu. Expect a practical, good value stopover with strengths in convenience and decent amenities, but with occasional maintenance, cleanliness, and dining inconsistencies.

Very nice hotel and a 30 minute walk from the airport. Good room, very spacious . Good enough breakfast , less choice for me as a vegan but still managed okay with fresh fruit and bread . Hot water was supplied freely as no kettle in the room. Good pool area. I would stay here again.

A great place to stay close to the airport. A walk to the town and the beach front is worthwhile to see the real Madeira. It has a modern interior with traditional and historical possessions around to give it atmosphere Out of season the restaurant had a limited menu (not the one on the outside wall) but there was a good crowd in for the food

Schickes Hotel sehr nahe am Flughafen und für den Preis top. Gestört hat das zum einen die Parkplätze sehr begrenzt waren und im ersten Stock durch die Bauweise alles sehr gut zu hören war, was im EG, also der Lobby und dem Restaurant geredet und vor sich ging.

Nous avons réservé pour une nuit avec un vol tôt le matin. La chambre est très bien et propre. Le lit confortable. L'hôtel a une terrasse et piscine sur le toit, pas de serviette de piscine par contre. Situé à moins de 10 minutes à pieds du centre/plage, facile d'accès pour l'aéroport. Concernant le parking, il y a quelques emplacements juste devant l'hôtel qui sont remplis. Mais le stationnement payant ne coûte vraiment pas cher, 4,4€ la journée. J'avais demandé par mail pour avoir un petit déjeuner à emporter comme le mentionnait certains commentaires. Et c'était possible, on m'a juste dis de demander lors du check-in. La dame a été assez désagréable concernant cela car la cuisine aurait été fermé. Nous avons eu un petit déjeuner très simple (2 tartines au fromage, 2 jus, 2 petites orange et un biscuit emballé). Même pas de croissant ou beurre/confiture,... vraiment déçus sur ce point. Une auberge de jeunesse aurait fais mieux ! Cela se voyait que la réceptionniste ne voulait faire aucun effort.

This is a basic hotel. The showers need a thorough deep clean. The roof top pool is beautiful but there are no pool towels. The restaurant was closed which was not posted on their website when we booked. The positive was that it was near the airport for an early flight.

Il y avait une très forte odeur de moisissures dans la chambre, en particulier près du mur de la tête de lit. Il y avait des traces de moisissures blanches dans le bas des murs. Notre chambre était située dans un bout de couloir donnant sur la mezzanine qui surplombe le hall de réception. C’était très bruyant, on entendait toutes les discussions, mais surtout le son du piano joué par des jeunes enfants qui n’avaient rien à faire là à 1 heure du matin…je ne recommande pas cet hôtel.

Ne réservez pas dans cet hôtel, c'est une arnaque. Il n'a rien d'un 4 étoiles, il est digne d'un motel glauque. Nous avions la chambre 101, infestée de cafards, climatisation défaillante qui ne rafraichissait absolument rien, en guise de gel douche/shampoing, eh bien seulement une bouteille en plastique dove fixée au mur et une réception fantôme pourtant censée être ouverte 24h/24. L'hôtel refuse de rembourser la nuit puisque nous avons tout de même "utilisé la chambre", bien que nous n'avons pas pu fermer l'oeil de la nuit avec les insectes et la chaleur. Et que nous n'avons pas été nous plaindre pendant le séjour. LOL. Nous aurions aimé nous plaindre mais nous sommes passés 3 fois à la réception et personne n'était là. Etablissement honteux qui ne mérite même pas 1 étoile.

Thank you to the staff.

In a nice and quiet neighborhood. I was only there for less than a whole 24 hours. I went for a walk in the evening. Didn’t seem to be any shops or cafes very close, I just didn’t look into it too much. Nice, safe feel about the neighborhood. Taxi easily got me from airport, less than 10 minutes and to cruise ship, 20 minutes.

Their restaurant by the Church just down the road gave us the best meal of our trip and was 10% off. Exceptional steak on the stone, very cheap!

No pude disfrutar mucho el hotel a causa de que mi vuelo se retrasó. Aun así, tuve que pagar todas las tasas turísticas. La habitación es amplia y bonita. El baño también es amplio aunque la bañera demasiado alta. El desayuno me pareció escueto creo que puede mejorarse, lo peor es que había demasiadas moscas saboreando la fruta. El café no me pareció de buena calidad. Unicado cerca de la playa y de calles con restaurantes y ambiente para pasear.
