"We stayed at the Barcelo Funchal Oldtown for 9 nights, and found the hotel to be exceptional, with outstanding staff. Our king room was very clean, and the public areas were immaculate as well. The biggest surprise was the wealth of offerings in the included daily breakfast. Food included made to order omelets, a number of other hot items, fresh fruit, fresh baked pastries and breads, juices, automated coffee machines, cold cuts, cheeses, and many other offerings. The decor was ultra modern, and we understand the Barcelo was named the top hotel in the world by Time magazine. It has only been open for a year. The rooftop pool and seating area is very scenic and relaxing, something we visited every day. I highly recommend the Barcelo as a top notch hotel in the middle of old town Funchal. Transportation from the airport to the Barcelo by the Aerobus is very inexpensive (6 euro one way or 10 round trip - use stop 5 or 6 with a half block walk from either), and there are hundreds of shops, restaurants, bars, and entertainment businesses within easy walking distance. Enjoy!"

"Everything is excellent. The A/C was not working in our room but the staff made sure to operate it for us remotely. Other than that, no complaints at all. An excellent hotel and location. "

"Clean, comfortable room with safe. Nice view from balcony. Excellent breakfast, lots of choices and plenty of everything. Super helpful and friendly staff. Our flight was cancelled and we had to book an extra day and they gave us a breakfast box as we had to leave early. Airport bus stop nearby and area has plenty of dining and bar options. About 25 min walk to centre of Funchal."

"Our family of five stayed for five nights in March. The property was quite large, and accommodated our party easily. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with everything necessary to cook breakfast and simple meals during our stay. The TV and internet worked well. There was a small pool which we did not use, as it was quite cool during our stay, but would be lovely for a dip during the summer. The property is quite high up the mountain, which allows for great views. A car rental is definitely recommended, and secure off street parking is available. Communication with the owner and property manager were quite good. Overall a great stay in Madeira."

"Hotel was nice for a resort. Hallways and pub are dated."

"Hotel is in a great location close to shopping, ocean front and many restaurants and shops. Friendly staff, loved the terrace. "
