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.

    We really liked Funchal! HOwever, most accomodations are very noisy because of the road traffic, scooters, shouting people on the street, etc. so one has to really choose wisely!!! Funchal offers a lot, mountains, gardens, elevation gain, boat tours, festivals, nice people and food, and calm atmosphere.

    I found Funchal town to be very clean and larger than expected. Interesting older part but generic modern area which was less interesting. Nice sea front and beautiful town park. The cable car up to the gardens at Monte Palace was a nice experience. We enjoyed a long levada walk in the mountains and catamaran boat trip along the coast and saw dolphins. There is much more to explore so I would like to return to the island in the future. Perfect weather and temperature for an active holiday.

    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).

    Perfect 12 days stay on Madeira. Very friendly and supportive host. Very good localisation, walking distance to the city center, close to shopping center, bus stop. Spacious apartament with everthing what you need and fantastic view on the ocean. Private parking place in underground parking. Feeling of safe and comfort. The apartment is located in a residential part, much more atmospheric than the hotel part of Funchal. You can feel the real vibe of the city. Perfect base to everyday trips across the island.

    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.

    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 hotel is just a short walk away from the old town and most of Funchal's main attractions, and it's suitably located even for those who don't like elevation. 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.

Western edge of hotel district and access to plenty of restaurants within 20 minutes walk and good location generally. Charming setting and gardens give a character set apart from the many soulless mega hotels in western Funchal. Generally friendly staff.
