Popular Funchal 4-star Hotels

The hotel is in a good location and the sea view room which we reserved had a nice view of ocean. But, I need to mention that this hotel is not a 4 star hotel. The whole building is old and they kept it in an old fashion way. The bath is not good, they don't offer even water in daily service and neither tea. (which is expected from a four star hotel) The elevator is old and always full, really not suitable for an eleven floor building.

My second stay at Alto Lido this year and it was even better than the first. Staff is professional and polite. I was kindly surprised with a room upgrade which was beautiful and comfortable. Lovely modern hotel. I will definitely be back again.

Lovely spacious comfortable room. A variety of restaurants to choose from and pools to relax in with jacuzzi.Spa facilities available. A very good location with transport on your doorstop to get you to Funchal. The staff are very friendly and very helpful.

Excellent big hotel. Many German pensioners. Very good location - on the ocean shore, next to a large shopping center Forum and beach Formoz. By 1 or 2 bus the road to the center of Funshala takes 12 minutes. Breakfasts are very diverse, but queues for coffee after 8 a.m.. They go on the floor with a stunning view of the ocean, you can sit on the street. I didn't like the pools - with a beautiful view, but the water is narrow, everywhere on the belt. Only for children. The air conditioner works only for cooling - the room was cold.

We had room 1101, wow beautiful views and lovely rooms, bedroom, lounge, bathroom and big balcony. The hotel is great, food good and always hot. Staff are lovely. The only thing I found disappointing was the bar area on floor 1 had a lack of comfortable seating. The settees were past their best and there were only two. Sort the seating and this hotel would easily get 5*s from me.

My wife and I stayed at the TUI Blue Madeira (Savoy) Gardens for 1 week. We opted for the sea view room, which in our opinion is worth the extra outlay. We have no complaints. The hotel is spotlessly clean, and the décor is very good quality throughout. All staff are amazing and made our holiday extra special. We spoke to many other guests most of whom were repeat customers, which speaks volumes of this place. The facilities, which include a Jacuzzi and an indoor pool are perfect for just chilling or if you need to recoup after a day walking the landscape of Madeira. There are ample sunbeds as well - meaning nobody does a sunrise dash to reserve them. The food was plentiful and to our personal taste. The opening times for both breakfast and evening meals had a three-hour window ensuring the restaurant never gets too busy. The à la carte restaurant is included for those on a HB basis and is a sit-down affair. Note: This must be pre-booked at reception and has a specific time slot. The Animation team lead by the wonderful Santa kept us entertained throughout each day by hosting different games and activities. We particularly liked the Wine tasting class, quizzes and the darts. They also have evening entertainment, which ranges from a pianist to local dances to a New Year’s Eve disco. If we returned to this beautiful island, we would definitely stop at this hotel again.

Simply wonderful, excellent service at the reception, the breakfast was very delicious, not to mention that on the day we returned, as we had a super early flight, the hotel left a cup of coffee in advance especially for when we were going to leave. Next time I will have no doubts about where to rest again. Congratulations to everyone at the hotel.

As a Ronaldo fan, you must stay in this hotel! The decoration style of the hotel is very cool, and the design of the corridor is also very handsome! Above the bed there are paintings of Ronaldo’s career from childhood to adulthood, which is great! You can swim and bask in the sun on the hotel's terrace. Opposite is the sea and cruise ships. There are also jerseys signed by Ronaldo in the hotel. Ronaldo's museum is next to the hotel. Guests staying at the hotel can get tickets to the museum for free at the front desk, siu! ! !

Exceptional views and such welcoming helpful staff. Buffet breakfasts and terrace superb. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Pool rather cold but it was January and the outlook over the sea compensated. Also a very friendly, good value pool snack bar. The spa area was very small and treatments expensive. On a previous visit a few years ago, before refurbishment , there was a jacuzzi which was very welcome on cooler days in particular. Easy access to public transport to Funchal and pleasant walks along the sea front. We thoroughly recommend this hotel. Special thanks to all staff especially Elspeth.

We arrived late evening and very tired but received a very warm welcome and equally welcome glass of wine. The gentleman on reception even brought our cases to our room, which was very large and comfortable with a balcony overlooking the pool and the sea. Everything was spotlessly clean. We stayed 10 nights and bedding and towels were constantly changed by a very smiley and hard working member of housekeeping. All staff were friendly and helpful. We only had bed and breakfast but what a treat eating outside overlooking the sea. Food choice at breakfast was excellent and constantly being replenished. Waiters friendly and efficient. Pool area was lovely with nice views and surrounded by palm trees. Saving of sun beds not allowed so all very relaxed. Very clean and tidy. Music some evenings but nothing to disturb other guests. For a largish hotel it still had a very personal feeling. Delilia the customer relations manager was extremely helpful, answering queries and booking restaurants. There were plenty of restaurants within walking distance of tge hotel. Noticed guests with mobility scooters and walking sticks so good to know all people are catered for. Bus stop just outside hotel so apart from walking into Funchal there is good transport available. We loved our stay here.
