Great location , bed was comfortable. Staff was helpful and friendly .
The fridge had no cold drinks , fridge was basically room temperature . Tried to increase the coolness but it did not work
Amazing location in the center of Funchal, with probably the most comfortable bed I ever slept on, amazing rooftop with nice pool, chill vibes and beautiful views over the hills and the cathedral, great breakfast with a good variety of breads and pastries.
Location was amazing with everything within walking distance. Breakfast was fantastic! Lots of hot and cold options with a station that cooked eggs and omelets anyway you wanted. The staff was super helpful and friendly and the hotel was super clean and beautiful! The rooftop pool and patio was gorgeous, but often difficult to find a place to sit since it was always very busy. Loved every minute of our stay!
Location was amazing! Breakfast was very good but I’ve had better / more options at other five star hotels in Portugal before. Housekeeping did an amazing job and they were very friendly!
Very small gym with late opening time. Somewhat small pool given the number of rooms/ guest but understand that you have to compromise on some things given the location in town. Thanks!
Super centric location!! Everything clean and new. Excellent staff very helpful!
The front desk staff were so nice! They treated my children so well. Breakfast was giant and filled with a variety of things. I'm sure everyone will find something there! Rooms were nice and mini bar was available.
Nothing they can control but no parking.
This hotel is within walking distance to lots of restaurants and things to do. The marina , cr7 museum, tuk tuk rides , cable car , churches and lots more.
The bed was not the most comfortable,
Great location in Oldtown. Very comfortable room and overall nice facilities. Awesome views from both the room and rooftop.
There was an awful sewage smell in our rooms upon checking in. We had to ask a couple of times for it to be addressed and then we were finally moved to another smaller room, but the room rate stayed the same.
Good location within Funchal, clean upon arrival, breakfast was great
For a five star hotel it lacked some amenities. For example each day they did clean the room but did not change the sheets or towels.
Loved the location of hotel, good breakfast. Enjoyed my 4 day stay. Not warm enough for me to swim in pool. Rooftop was beautiful.
Struggled to turn off a bedside light each night. Maybe don't turn those on at turn down.
Excellent breakfast. Great location in beautiful Oldtown. Staff friendly and helpful
A bottle of water she always be available in the room. Shiuld have to ask or pay
Staff was very polite, helpfull and friendly. Breakfast excellent. Bed was big and comfy. Everywhere was clean. Hotel lacation is perfect to catch a bus or taxi or going for a walk. Around hotel there are some restaurants/cafes, souvenir shops, shops, park, port.
My wife and I recently stayed at the Barcelo Funchal Oldtown hotel and had a wonderful experience. The room was very clean, and the bed was comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The service was amazing, with the staff taking care of our needs to make our stay enjoyable. Additionally, the breakfast was very good, offering a variety of delicious options to start the day right.The hotel's location is perfect, situated in the center of the old town. There are plenty of restaurants and bars around, making it easy to explore and enjoy the local cuisine and nightlife.I would like to especially thank the Guest Experience Manager, Carolina. She was extremely helpful and fulfilled all our wishes, making our stay even more memorable.Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for its cleanliness, comfort, excellent service, great breakfast, and ideal location and outstanding guest experience.
First-floor rooms can be noisy due to nearby bars and restaurants.
