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.

    Funchal is a lovely town, cable car and gardens worth a visit, old town interesting and lots of restaurants and bars. I felt comfortable alone in the town at night. The only thing I did not like was staff trying to get you into restaurants off the street.

    Funchal is quite populated and civilized compared to other small villages on the island. The small local shops are nice and cozy, for example clothing store doesn't just resell the goods, but also provide tailoring service.

    Recommend stay in Old Funchal.

    Recommend stay in Old Funchal. Most of the big hotels are out on the west of the city, but we were albe to walk to a different restaurant every evening. We went to two concerts also in walking distance. Funchal has a fantastic bus service, so no need to hire a care. Walking for all levels of fitness from mountains to level paths. Do visit Monte and take the famous toboggan run back down the hill down with expert drivers! Also took a 4-wheel drive trip into the hidden areas of Madeira.

    We loved Funchal, people were so friendly and helpful, the restaurants we very reasonable, 3 good course meal with wine and beer £40-55. Able to have all our meals outside without any jumpers needed. The area arounfd the oldtown and sea front was flat with lovely gardens, the rest of Maderia is hilly but with wonderful gardens and walks as well as many tours available, It was out first visit but there will be many more.

    The room was nice and the staff were lovely. The gym and pool facilities were great. Breakfast had lots of options and the pool bar had good food. The hotel is about a 30 minute walk to the old town in Funchal. But there are good restaurants nearby. There are also grocery stores, pharmacies etc. There's actually a shopping centre about a 20 minute walk away. We would recommend O Dragoeiro for a nearby restaurant. There are some open air pools nearby and free public steps to the water where you can swim in the sea.

    It was in an excellent location, right in the middle of the high street. 5 minutes walk from the farmer's market and old town funchal. The Kitchen was fully equipped to use ( although we did not use it as we ate out) the shower had plenty of hot water. There was a washing machine in the apartment. It was very nice of them to provide a small welcome goodie kit containing sugarcane honey cookies, a 5cl bottle of Madeira wine and Madeira bananas.

    What a wonderful little gem in central Funchal. Only stayed one night due to flight disruption but would happily go back. Staff are beyond helpful and so friendly (unlike one other hotel we stayed in). Room was gorgeous, air conditioning a bonus. Loved the free Madeira and chocolates, a generous touch. Despite it being on a side street I had the best sleep of our entire time on Madeira. The breakfast basket was delicious and unexpected.

    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.
