Absolutely lovely. Great building, wonderful gardens and wider grounds. A levada walk to Monte very near. I did there and back in 5 hours and I'm not that fast. Not much else in walking distance . Very relaxing, particularly during pandemic! And reasonably priced at the time I went. I got an upgrade to main house. The restaurant and spa are a little expensive for me but the tea room and club house are fine. I spent most of my time in the gardens. Of course it is a little cooler than in Funchal and damp outside in the morning

Beautiful place really well kept especially in current circumstances very clean and COVID safe. Restaurant superb Luiz and his staff really great couldn’t do enough. Food excellent both dinner and breakfast. Nice walk to golf club, facilities there great as well. Thoroughly recommend this place.

My wife and me had an absolute fantastic stay at Casa Velha do Palheiro. The hotel is located on the hills above Funchal within extensive and lovely gardens. Pairing colonial flair with modern elements, the quiet area with its exclusive ambience clearly earns it place in the Relais & Chateaux selection. Special thanks go to Cindy, Sonja, and especially to Luis, for providing us a heartwarming welcome and an extraordinary service.

Very good room service, friendly staff , all spoke english but little french, lovely gardens and spa

The gardens are stunning and our room was nice. The communal areas were very comfortable. The staff were super helpful, friendly and professional. We will likely visit again.

Casa Velha is a secluded country house hotel, set high above Funchal, with extensive, beautiful grounds and golf course. A garden lover's paradise with free access to the famous Palheiro gardens. The accommodation is charming, as is the service. The restaurant's cuisine and ambience are very good too.

The manor house is in a bucolic setting and impeccably maintained. Our room Number 1 was very comfortable. We signed up for bed and breakfast and the breakfasts were very good as were the dinners. The staff was always very friendly and polite.

The hotel is in a magical location with splendid gardens. It is like staying in an English country house.

Location and charme, that makes this hotel really unique. Staff is very helpfull and warm, overall wonderful. The breakfast, afternoon thee or a romantic diner; you absolutely must do this in the garden. Where you can feel totally relaxed and cocooned for the otherwise busy and vibrant fuchal.

Beautiful tranquil location , friendly and helpful staff , amazing views of Funchal Perfect get away for a few days
