Wonderful hotel. The service was fantastic - efficient and friendly. We had the deluxe benefits to our room package (room upgrade, extra breakfast menu and discount in the bar plus other benefits) which was definitely worth it. Everywhere very clean and very stylish. Views incredible. Pool and spa were excellent. Cocktail bar was great. Cannot recommend highly enough - would love to return!

FAQs about hotels in Funchal









Portuguese Charm and Island Capital

Considered one of the most beautiful cities in Portugal, charming Funchal is the capital of Madeira Island. It is an important base for tourists from all over the world that come to the Madeira hotels, B&B’s and resorts to enjoy their cliffs and beaches, as well as its slopes and colourful towns.

Founded in 1424, its position allowed it to quickly become an important trading harbour, attracting many prominent families. Its mild weather was the beginning of its touristic development in the 18th century, with a therapeutic and health profile.

With the establishment of the port first, and Madeira International/Funchal Airport later, the city grew to become a major destination. Nowadays, the city concentrates most of the hotels, luxury resorts and casinos of Madeira. Accommodation located in Santa Cruz, near Funchal Airport, is also available for those wanting to avoid the rush.

Don’t miss a long walk around Sé historical district, and enjoy the Santa Clara Convent and the Sé Cathedral. The Quinta do Palheiro Ferreiro Park and the Mercado dos Lavradores are also a must.

Whether you need an ocean-view villa or a small guest house, Booking.com offers a wide range of Funchal accommodation.

    Tourist advice was plentiful and very well spoken staff. Bus services on time and frequent. The majic dolphin boat for whale watching and free spirit for mountain hikes. Red wine so low cost and great quality. Local pizza not so good go to Pizza hut on the seafront. Very freindly people and as an ageing human all young people were very polite on transport services. Great atmosphere, good climate although a little humid at times but a very generous island that keeps on giving surpridse after surprise.

    On the whole a clean city in which I felt safe. The island is very hilly (mountainous) but the public transport (urban and interurban buses) provide a good service, as does the cable car (though this is priced more at the tourists than the locals).

    Fascinating small city, lots to do but everything walkable. The weather was perfect - not too hot but sunny - for getting out and about We stayed a week and went on a couple of trips out to the island. Great places to eat and drink and plenty of history. Funchal felt a real thriving town with distinct culture compared to Canary Islands.

    Madeira is a very beautiful island with its mountains, ocean, flowers and very wonderful and helpful people. I would like to go back there and recommend visiting this island. Funchal is one of the most beautiful cities. I liked the food, the varied fruits, the kind people and of course the rum.

    Hotel is new and very stylish, I would even prefer it to the neighbouring 5 star ones of the same hotel chain. Ocean suit has great ocean view even on a not high floor. Be careful if you travel not with a partner, as bathroom is not private. We definitely liked that the hotel has 2 swimming pools, one rooftop, with bar/cafe areas and possibility to order beer/milkshake to the pool, sun beds, towels, tents included. There is exit to ocean from one of the pools, but no sandy beech (Madeira actually has not many of them).

    View from our room was outstanding - could see the Sea and all of Funchal. Staff went out of their way to be helpful and friendly. Breakfast was excellent and tasty. Location is good for the older area of Funchal, however be prepared to walk up hill to get back from the centre of town (all of Funchal is either going up or down hills!). Madeira are nice and strict on the COVID rules (masks, sanitiser and distancing), the hotel was an example of the rules being followed across the island and I felt safe there.

    Prime location in Funchal from where you can walk around old town and to the sea front. The free gated parking is a massive bonus. Balcony with view to the square where you can find many options for breakfast. The area is nearby many restaurants as well. The flat in itself is big and comfy. Not having to share a key is great and everyone can come in and out as they please with a code. Kitchen had everything we needed, very well equipped. If I go back to Madeira will be staying here again.

    Staff were friendly, helpful and polite. The breakfast was okay, not great. Poor selection of fruit, coffee machines always dirty. I then managed to get into a different type of breakfast to keep going during my time there, given that I had 14 days to stay in Madeira. If you decide to have breakfast outside, you need to look out for pigeons as they constantly come to your table and try to steal your food! The view from the restaurant is mostly to the pool, not a sea view. But still okay.

    The Babosas Village is the ideal place to stay if you want to see Madeira but you want to avoid the insanely touristic centre of Funchal. While a lot of tourists come up here during the day, at breakfast and dinner Babosas is an oasis of peace and relax. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and very patient with those who do not speak Portuguese. The rooms are comfortable and quiet, the breakfast is rich and changes every day. If I had to visit Funchal again, I would go back to Babosas.

    Our recent stay at this Old Madeiran villa was a mixed experience, marked by both its historical charm and several notable challenges. The villa itself is a treasure trove of history, adorned with artifacts from the 19th and 20th centuries, offering a unique glimpse into the past. For history enthusiasts, this aspect of the stay was undoubtedly fascinating. Additionally, the presence of books and maps about Madeira's attractions provided valuable insights for our explorations.

The rooms and public areas are clean and very well maintained, the furnishing is nice and modern. The rooftop pool area has a fantastic view over the city and the sea. For breakfast, there is a wide variety of treats available in a smorgasbord system. The staff was very helpful throughout our stay.

    The studio has a great balcony with amazing view on the old town of Funchal, a stylish bedroom with a comfortable double bed, and a kitchen equipped literally with everything, that can be possibly needed for a long pleasant stay in Madeira. All the equipment is of top quality. Michael personally introduced us to the studio, and on the departure day gave us a lift to the airport. It was a pity we could not stay longer.

The location was remote while being close to everything and is easy walking distance to the tropical garden, the most beautiful botanical garden I’ve ever seen. It was easy to get into Funchal but a nice distance away to feel more secluded. The cafe had a wonderful view and a cozy patio. We would definitely stay here again!
