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.

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.

Interesting town.
Interesting town. Nice shops and a wide variety of restaurants.
It is a bit hilly, which could be an issue for some visitors - but taxis and buses are available.
Buses to other destinations are available and fun to use.

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.
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.
It was a wonderful location, within walking distance to old Town Funchal. It was quiet and private with a beautiful garden and place to just relax, enjoy breakfast or an afternoon drink. The rooms were wonderful with a little kitchen and lots of food available (you did have to pay). Staff was amazing - SO helpful and friendly. And the BREAKFAST! Oh goodness - one of the best I've had with a huge variety and all you could eat. I definitely will go back next time I'm in Funchal.
We had an exceptional stay at Casa do Miradouro! The place is brand new, fully equipped, beautifully furnished and it has everything you might need. The host Alexandra gave warmly welcomed us, explained everything in detail and gave us great recommendations about Funchal. I absolutely recommend this place if you are traveling to Madeira, made our stay even more unforgettable because it was really cool to stay in after our long hikes. Also, great value for money!
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. Very much recommended!
Perfect location in Funchal old town, perfect for travellers without a car, because the bus station is less than minute walk away. Really close are also Zona Velha, seaside, market place, lots of restaurants and bars etc. In the studio there is washing machine, perfect for dirty clothes after hiking, kitchen with basicly everything you need for simple meal preparation, small cute bathroom and quite some prospects about Madeira activities.
My stay at The Views Monumental in Funchal, Madeira, was unforgettable! The hotel staff provided a warm welcome and efficient check-in. The room was spacious, clean, and beautifully designed, ensuring a comfortable stay. The rooftop terrace offered breathtaking views of Funchal, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the scenery. I highly recommend this hotel for an enjoyable and memorable experience in Madeira.
gorgeous small boutique hotel in the heart of Funchal. quiet pedestrian road runs along side filled with shops and amazing restaurants. location was quiet, perfect for sleeping with fantastic beds. Amenities were 5 star, staff were authentic and kind and very friendly. Location is close to everything within a 5 min walk… food was excellent 😊… not one negative thing to say, a hidden gem and I recommend to anyone!
Excellent location and fantastic views towards the sea, about 15 mins down to the main area and even closer to the Old Town. The apartment was well equipped and had everything that we needed for our stay, and was decorated well. The instructions for checking in were really helpful and clear and the employees very helpful if/when we needed them! Would definitely recommend if we visited Funchal and Madeira again!
The apartment was spacious, light and well equipped. The location was excellent being right next to the old town with its shops, restaurants and bars. The apartment was also very convenient for public transport and the pick up point for tours. The hosts were lovely and informative providing great bar and restaurant recommendations. We loved Madeira and would look to stay again if we returned.
Place is located in the centre of Funchal Old Town, we had the little flat on the last floor, with kitchen and balcony, where we could eat and drink coffee. In the kitchen u have all u need to prepare food, even a blender! We also have a view on the ocean, what is always nice. In the building was a washing machine and dryer. Staing in this house u can feel like in your own flat, not a hotel.
The reception staff were very friendly and helpful, assisting me with trip arrangements.
My room, with its en-suite bathroom and a balcony offering a sea view, was quite spacious.
The wifi service was very good, and the range of multilingual TV channels was extensive.
The hotel's is located conveniently for the Madeira Forum shopping complex and the bus services into Funchal's Zona Vehla.
Extraordinary location. The very long, L-shaped, balcony which provided incredible views of the port, the park across the street, the city and the mountains. The huge (10 foot wide, floor to ceilling) windows in the living room and the bedroom. The honey cake provided by our hostess, which was the best we had ever had in Madeira. The high security building.
Suite was clean and spacious, located a 5 min walk away from Funchal centre and about 15mins from the old town/cable car. Angelo (the host) was amazing, nothing was too much trouble & he is extremely knowledgeable & passionate about Madeira. He hosts a BBQ on a Friday evening for guests and this was the best food we had whilst in Madeira.
Everything was outstanding - the location, the villa, the Infinity pool, the friendliness of the staff, communication with owners. Ideally placed a short - uphill - walk from Funchal old town/centre. The walk back up after an evening helped to burn off the holiday calories! We will be back.
Location was great in a building nextdoor to Forum Madeira shopping center. Large (by Madeira standards) Pingo Doce supermarket was on the lower floor. Location was well connected to the airport and center of Funchal by bus. Apartment had included parking. Basic cooking equipment was there
Turim has incredibly comfortable rooms, nice beds, nice balconies, a wonderful pool and rooftop bay (Marco is the best!) and a huge and delicious breakfast. We loved Funchal and this hotel was a perfect home base for Madeira.
The location of the hotel is perfect, near the Old Town of Funchal. The staff was smiling and they cleaned our room every day, towels changed etc. The room is basic but really comfy and would recommend it :)
Location is just perfect, in the middle of old town, very close to airport bus stop, few minutes walk from the Santa Maria street. Coffee was surprisingly better than in other bigger hotels in Madeira :)
