Considered one of the most beautiful cities in Portugal, charming Funchal is the capital of Madeira Island. It's 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 the island's slopes and colorful towns.
Founded in 1424, its location allowed it to quickly become an important trading harbor, 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 on Madeira. Accommodations located in Santa Cruz, near Funchal Airport, are also available for those trying 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 guesthouse, Booking.com has a wide range of Funchal accommodations.
Jardin Botanica is great, but see it BEFORE you see Monte,...
Jardin Botanica is great, but see it BEFORE you see Monte, which somewhat outshines it. Go when there's a festival; like the Atlantic Festival when we were there, It makes it more interesting. Don't expect beaches unless you go to Porto Santo for the day or two. Do go for a 4x4 into the interior too. And go to the Farmers Market the fruit is great, though not necessarilly cheap. The flowers all over Island are magnificent. And DO a Taboggan ride. Unique and worth the price, it's run by a cooperative.

We loved the old part of the Town and enjoyed shopping at the Farmers' Market. The Town was clean and tidy and the people couldn't have been more helpful. Everyone seemed to have a good knowledge of English.
We enjoyed the cable car and generally walking around the Town. Driving was a challenge.

Funchal is beautiful.
Funchal is beautiful. It is extremely clean and full of fruit trees and flowers . The people are incredibly welcoming and kind. The food was amazing. The prices were very reasonable. In some restaurants you could buy an appetizer, entree, drink and dessert for $20 euros. The landscapes were breathtaking .

We’ve visited not only Funchal but all over Madeira.
We’ve visited not only Funchal but all over Madeira. My favorites were the levadas, but I’ve loved to run in the morning uphill in Funchal :).
The city is beautiful but has its poor parts integrated everywhere, I liked that it’s not somewhere separated but it’s a mix of everything. The flora is astonishing and we’ve lived also the food there. Driving around can be a bit unusual at the beginning because of the steep hills and two way streets which barely can fit one car, but you get used to it :).

3-4 days is plenty.
3-4 days is plenty. There are surprisingly beautiful gardens & green spaces giving a break from all the noise & congestion. Beautiful flowers & trees blooming everywhere during the May Flower Festival. When multiple cruise ships are in port at once, it is packed. Driving & parking is a nightmare. Summer season must be a crowded mess. Some beautiful vistas, but few places to pull over & enjoy them. Very high fog shrouded mountains.
The tourist board proclaims that Madeira in general is the Hawaii of the Atlantic. Lots of Banana trees, some palms, some similar flowers, yes. The hiking is in the cold wet fog & the beaches can't compare.
The hotel is beautiful, at a very good location near many shops and amenities. The room was big, the bed was huge and comfortable with different pillows to choose from. We were even upgraded to a deluxe room for free which we highly appreciated. They have a roof top bar with incredible views good coctails and nice food. All single members of staff really impressed us more than anything though. They are professional and over and above helpful and kind always willing to assist with a smile. Loved it and would definately come back when in Madeira
The staff were exceptionally helpful and polite. The grounds and gardens were beautiful, and very well kept, with a lovely view out to the sea and over the town. Breakfast was AMAZING. The rooms were very big, and the neighbourhood very quiet. The hotel is a reasonable walking distance to the old town, and we prefer to stay outside of the city centre so it was perfect. Excellent place if you have a car during your stay as it's easy to get in and out of Funchal from here, and the parking garage is spacious.
I am very satisfied with my choice of Florasol Residence Hotel - Dorisol hotels! Location was perfect, short walk distance to the town centre! Bus stop just by the hotel! Staff very friendly and helpful ;-) We stayed at the apartment with a view of the ocean ( it was at the 11 floor - as I requested ) ! Clean and well maintained outdoor swimming pool, breakfast fresh and delicious! I highly recommend this property in Funchal, Madeira :-)
Beautiful location
Nearby restaurant with local food
And coffee with sea view 😍
Easy transportation available
Bus 01 to Funchal in every 30 to 40 min available near house
Very supportive owner
Even he helped to visit some specific places in Madeira and show us city by car
And big thanks for wine 🍷 😍
House is just 500 meters from the beach ⛱️
Overall, I am in love with this place ,people and city 😍
Thank you
The apartment is very a very spacious two bed in the heart of Funchal with everything you might need for a comfortable stay. The host was very welcoming and helpful. Views of the City are wonderful from the balcony where you can sit and relax or eat with your family. Everything is close by including the Old Town, restaurants, public transport and cable car. We had an excellent stay and would return when next in Madeira.
It is at a great location, walkable distance from the city centre but also not too busy. We like the sea view of the room very much. The room is clean and big. The breakfast is amazing with great variety of choices! Facilities are great too. Hotel staff is very friendly and they gave my husband a flower for his birthday. If we will come back to Madeira, we would like to stay here again if the standard can be maintained.
The room was large and the view from the balcony was gorgeous. The inclusion of breakfast and access to a second large pool overlooking the water were bonuses that I appreciated. There are fancier hotels, but many are farther away from downtown and the waterfront walking area. This accommodation provided the peacefulness and quiet but also the proximity on foot to lovely downtown Madeira.
This was a great hotel with great staff situated direct across from the ocean, and I had great views from my ocean view room. The breakfast buffet was great the days I had it, and was only +17EUR.
The rooms were great and very spacious with great and very comfortable beds and amazing rainfall showers in the bathrooms. I would definitely stay here again should I return to Madeira.
Beautiful quinta located near to the old town, with a lovely garden surrounded by a banana plantation, passion fruit and papaja trees, looking at the ocean. The owner and his family were extremely friendly and helpful and told us a lot about Madeira, Funchal and the history of the property. A nice bakery and small grocery store at walking distance.
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.
Loved the location. Came to Madeira to run and hike, so the hotel was conveniently situated to get local buses or walk into Funchal.
The weather was so good we didnt use the facilities the hotel offered as we were out exploring.
Initial problem with our room but the staff went out of their way to deal with it.
Great location just a short walk from the old town in Funchal. Buses easy to access as well. Somewhat steep hill going up to the hotel with no sidewalk, but easily managed and completely worth it. Beautiful pool and view, as well as a lovely breakfast every morning. Receptive and friendly staff as well.
Everything was amazing, be it service, staff, facilities, room service .... and for the price it was definitely more than worth - Definitely revisiting
Plus the location is all you could ask for, super close to Funchal, Lido and Forum Madeira (everything is basically at walking distance)
The location is great, near downtown Funchal with easy access to the highway. It has a great view of Funchal right down to the water with a nice little patio to enjoy that view. The owner was great at communicating and check in was easy. When I come back to Madeira I’ll stay here again.
Charming main building of character, central to old town centre and well away from the busier main hotel area further west. Swimming pool with views up the hill to Monte. Grand elevated view of Funchal but only a short walk from old centre. The walk up is easy. Very quiet location.
Great location for sightseeing, restaurants, and shopping, walking distance to Old Town and the waterfront, beautiful sea view, clean and spacious apartment and nice kitchen, Madeira Wine and traditional dessert upon arrival.
Location was perfect - all the main spots of Funchal within walking distance. Right in between Old Town and the City center - but still quiet around the Hotel. I especially liked the variety of fruit offered at breakfast.
Fantastic hotel. Prime position close to Funchal centre but quiet. Room clean with everything you need. Breakfast in Los Arcos superb. Deserving of it’s 5 stars.
