Castanheiro Boutique Hotel in Funchal

Fantastic hotel with outstanding staff. Great, well equipped rooms and lovely breakfast.

Excellent smallish and stylish hotel, boutique like but not pretentious. Very Helpful, friendly staff. Quiet street but 2 min walk into tourist spots.
Rooms were good, gym is a bit tired, downstairs swimming is small but the spa, sauna and rooftop pool and sun area are really great.
Excellent Fine dining in restaurant with very good breakfast.
Would definitely return.

Castanheiro Boutique Hotel is a fantastic place to stay in Funchal. The hotel features a beautiful rooftop bar and pool with panoramic views over the entire city — the perfect spot to relax and unwind. The rooms are very comfortable, and the breakfast offers a wonderful variety of options. The staff are exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Its super central location makes it easy to explore the city, with all major tourist spots within walking distance. Highly recommended!

The check-in was extremely welcoming, the room was lovely and all staff were helpful and friendly. This is a great hotel, the rooftop area is a real treat, esp. when the sun is shining.

Everyone on the hotel staff was so nice and made us feel at home. The hotel was beautiful with wonderful views of the city. The pool deck was really nice and relaxing. Our spa services were outstanding!

Friendly helpful staff, quiet, central, amazing breakfast. Lovely pool area.

Great location in historic area of Funchal. Fabulous breakfast, lots of choice.

We enjoyed the location of the hotel at the friendly staff at the reception. The food at dinner was not really great and the overall service in the restaurant for breakfast/ dinner as well. The coffe was old and cold when served, or nobody served one for a long time etc

The hotel is in a great location and has its own parking lot. We were greeted very warmly with a welcome drink. The breakfast was also excellent and very plentiful – the fruit selection was particularly fantastic. We were less impressed with our room. We had specifically booked a room with a balcony but were given a room on the first floor with a balcony overlooking the passageway, which was very odd – nobody ever sat on that balcony... The shower water changed uncontrollably from cold to extremely hot, so we burned ourselves. On the first day, we were woken up before 9 a.m. because the staff wanted to clean the room, which was annoying. On the second day, however, the room still hadn't been cleaned at 2 p.m., even though we had been out all morning. At breakfast, our ordered eggs got lost in the shuffle – we waited over 20 minutes for two three-minute eggs. When we ordered them again after 20 minutes, thinking our order had been forgotten, they nonchalantly asked us if we really wanted four eggs. After we explained that we had been waiting for ages, there was no apology or anything else, which we found quite inappropriate. All in all, we probably wouldn't book this hotel again, as there were too many negative aspects and experiences for the rather high price.

A great hotel in a convenient location. Beautiful interiors, hearty breakfasts, and friendly staff. Rooftop pool and jacuzzi.
