Savoy Palace (Madeira, Portugal) 2 Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"Almost exactly a century after the opening of Madeira’s original Savoy hotel in 1918, the Savoy Palace was unveiled on the same spot on Funchal’s waterfront. Though it’s not a remodel — the old hotel was demolished — the new version channels the glamour and sophistication that drew aristocratic travelers from around Europe. There’s plenty of old-world allure here, from the swish marble lobby with romantic staircases to the gleaming grand piano and lavish floral arrangements in the bar. But the Savoy Palace is strikingly modern, too; instead of traditional chandeliers, the reception area features a massive suspended light installation, three stories tall and crafted from miles of matte metal chain." - Tablet Hotels
