The Barcelo Funchal Oldtown hotel is the hotel to stay if you want to be right in the center of the historic district of Funchal and right across from the Lido Promenade and from the Cathedral. It is walking distance to all of Funchal sightseeing sites. This is a wonderful hotel. It is very clean and nicely decorated. The rooms are of a nice size and the bathrooms are impeccable. The lobby and the bar area are lovely and spacious. The breakfast offerings are generous - with a very wide assortments of items. (They even make the omelettes and fried eggs to your liking.) The hotel has a super nice rooftop pool area (on the 5th floor), with an infinity pool and with panoramic views of Funchal. (It also has a spa and a small gym - which we did not get to use.) As this hotel is located in the very center of the oldtown, there are plenty of restaurants right outside and around the hotel, as well as many shops of all kinds (e.g., gift, clothing, gelatto stores). Right around the hotel, there is even a taxi stand and even a McDonalds!) This hotel is very well maintained (I was told that it was recently opened - so all rooms, bathrooms, etc, appear as brand new.) The reception staff is terrific, and if you have a late flight out of Madeira, this hotel has a safe room right behind the reception area where you can store your luggage after you check out of the hotel and which you can pick up before you leave for the airport. When I return to Madeira, I will definitely stay here.

Absolutely loved everything about this property (except the parking situation.) I loved the way it smelled when we walked in, the front desk staff was polite and friendly, the room was clean, the bed was nicely sized, the sheets were amazing, the air condition worked great, the bathroom was fancy, the pool had an amazing view, and there was so much to do within walking distance.

Their roof top view of millions of lights at night is spectacular! Plus there is a bar and pool on that deck. Hotel is beautiful, easy to reach harbor, funicular, great restaurants by foot. Breakfast had huge varieties of everything from cold cuts to fresh exotic fruits, great fresh baked bread and omelets if you like. Would stay there again!

Our stay at the Barcelo hotel Funchal was delightful. The staff were friendly and helpful. Our room was lovely. We had a room with a side balcony. Not big enough to sit on, but it gave us a view of the sea. Breakfast was always plentiful and had good choices. We didn’t eat there in the evenings as my husband likes craft ale and they only served Guinness. Whereas many other restaurants had Portuguese real ale. But that was a preferential choice. I would recommend this hotel.

Very modern clean quiet hotel. Central to everything. Fabulous enormous walk in shower with the best rainfall shower ever. Bedding and bed wonderful. Water and chocolates in the room. Hotel environment very modern and unique. Situated right in the middle of everything. Rooftop pool and bar an oasis in the middle of a busy town. There is nothing bad to say about it. All excellent.

8/10 Very good

Amazing rooftop in old funchal
We loved this hotel - new, clean, well maintained and in an excellent location. Service in the restaurant for dinner was pretty slow but breakfast was very good. The rooftop pool is amazing, just what we wanted, but admittedly it’s a small rooftop so often is at capacity. I’d recommend reshuffling the layout of beds/tables etc to have more sun beds and parasols! Otherwise, all excellent.

The hotel was right in the middle of Funchal old town - a perfect location for exploring. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. The breakfast buffet was amazing. There was very limited space at the rooftop pool and bar which was slightly disappointing as it was extremely hot and a dip in the pool would have been welcome!

Effortlessly Brilliant
Staff were lovely, rooftop cocktails were made perfectly and the king-size bed was dreamy. Exactly what you'd want and we'd consider it good value for money. Noz cafe (restaurant) downstairs served some fantastic food, and live music.

The hotel is in a fabulous location! Close to everything and walking around was very clean and safe. The hotel breakfast was excellent and such good value for money. The rooftop pool/bar was a nice addition, however very limited pool chairs as area is quite small. Housekeeping was outstanding.

10/10 Exceptional

Very comfortable stay. Close to all the restaurants shops and seafront boat ride departure zone so extremely convenient. We didn't find the outside street noise to be intrusive, having read other reviews. We were at the front of the hotel. There was a street singer on one evening but it wasn't very loud, the songs were good and it didn't go on late. Breakfast we found to be exceptional in terms of the food choices. The breakfast area gets a little crowded at times but it's a downtown hotel that you're staying in for the prime location. The bar at the front of the hotel is comfortable and quite well stocked. Prices are typical of elsewhere on the island and traveller's will be pleased with value compared with 5 star hotels in other destinations outside Portugal. The hotel is very new and the room and bathroom were decorated to a very high standard. Transfer to the airport is 25 minutes by car. I would highly recommend this hotel for travellers who want to be near to the large number of excellent local restaurants and who are planning on boat trips for whale watching and jeep tours. The rooftop pool was more than enough for us to cool down in and our 5 yo daughter enjoyed using it greatly. If you want to hang out by a large pool all day then this hotel may not be the right choice for you. We found the staff to be efficient helpful and friendly.
