Good central location, with no free parking nearby. So if you are like us and plan to rent a car to discover the island, you should probably rent it later or return before coming here. Since the location is quite central, there are lots of places to see, visit and eat at nearby. If you go there in summer you... more

We stayed at the Hotel Orquidea for a week during the end of July. This hotel is perfectly located and is very close to many places of interest, the Catherdral, the market place, the marina, shops, restaurants and cafes which can all be reached by walking. We had a twin room which was clean and comfortably, the room was made... more

Hotel Orquidea This is a good standard business hotel but not that suitable for holidaying visitors. In Funchal there are many better hotels specifically catering for holiday makers at the same price or a bit cheaper and just as conveniently located. If you have a hire car during the week you have to juggle the parking, often getting up at... more

We booked this three-star hotel for its position. It is very central, less than ten minutes’ walk to the old town, market, bus station, marina, harbour, and all places of interest. The sun terrace has good views around Funchal, and particularly of the new shopping centre being built on two sides of the hotel. The building work will go on... more

The town hall is 2 streets away, the cathedral 1 more and the sea about a 5 minute walk.and of course... more

My girlfriend and I stayed at this wonderfully clean, efficient and quiet hotel over the Christmas week. Our hotel room was simple but perfectly adequate for our needs: after all, if you're coming to Madeira you don't want to be spending too much time in your hotel room! My only minor complaint was that the air con didn't enable us... more

We have just come back from a fantastic holiday, based at this lovely hotel. the location is just perfect being right in the heart of Funchal. The hotel is obviously recently renovated, and we found it to be spotless throughout. The room was a very good size, with THE MOST comfortable bed! All the hotel staff were friendly, especially the... more

We booked this hotel based on the reviews read on this site, so we were very disappointed to find that the hotel just didn't live up to expectations. We'd booked a non-smoking room, but when we arrived, we were told that we'd been put into a smoking room because a "big group" had requested the whole non-smoking floor the previous... more
