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.

    On the whole a clean city in which I felt safe.

    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. 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.

    Beautiful garden city with well kept gardens and trees...

    Beautiful garden city with well kept gardens and trees everywhere. Incredible array of restaurants and bars, which were well priced and didn't disappoint. Weather was great, averaging around 20 deg C during our stay creeping up to 24 deg C on some days, but low humidity. Quite windy some days but we ate breakfast outside every day. It is extremely hilly though, away from the promenade - so a reasonable degree of fitness and mobility needed to fully enjoy (or use plentiful local taxis and buses). We also stayed just outside Funchal, with a hire car, the previous week. This gave us a chance to see more of the island, which is worth doing - plenty of half and full day tours from Funchal. You'll need some layers & waterproofs when heading up into the mountains, which rise up to 2,000m and have very different weather to Funchal! There were still plenty of things left for another time, even after a fortnight. We'll be back!

    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.

    Two pools, one near sea and access to the water. Restaurant fine with standard Madeiran cuisine. 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. Very good value for money, was half the price of similar options at the time of booking

    I stayed in many places in my big travel trip in Lisbon, Azores and Madeira and this was my favorite hotel because of location, balcony, palm trees near and ocean view a little from balcony. WiFi a bit was to weak, but good anyway. Breakfast was included in a very affordable price. Staff was great, was seems that they was tired and work a lot, but I was absolutely satisfied. Well done, just need to do more attention with ants.
