A very nice place to stay as a base whilst visiting around the beautiful island. Its not far from Funchal by BOLT taxi service and close to airport too, so not difficult to travel to the main centre.

Lovely Madeira Hotel
The view from our room was beautiful. The room was very clean, and the housekeepers were lovely. The hotel is slightly dated and could do with a good refurb however it was a good base for our trip. The breakfast was nice too! Well located with only 10 min drive from the airport and 10 mins away from Funchal. Bolt and Uber were both available in the area which we used to get around as it’s very cheap! Also only a short walk from Cristo Rei which can actually be seen from the reception area.
