Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offered cozy and clean rooms, although they were a bit dark. Noella's impeccable service stood out, but there were some minor issues that kept it from reaching a 5-star rating. The location was excellent for exploring downtown Funchal with easy access to free parking. The dining experience was tasty with a variety of choices but lacked some brightness. Overall, a good value for a comfortable stay.
I absolutely loved my stay at The Vine Funchal! The rooms are beautifully decorated and spacious, making me feel right at home. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, even surprising me with a birthday treat in my room. The location is fantastic, overlooking the lively city and just a short walk from the seafront. Dining options were excellent, with a great variety of dishes to choose from. The hotel's facilities were top-notch, allowing me to relax and enjoy my vacation to the fullest.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were perfect and very clean, with a central bath and balcony, making it a comfortable choice. The service was more than amazing, with the staff being friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist. The location was beautiful, offering great views over the city and being very central for exploring Funchal. The dining experience was superb, especially the breakfast options. However, the access via the shopping center was not impressive, and the quality of food did not quite match the price.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The unique room setup was a bit odd with the open bathroom layout, but the attention to detail in the decor was impressive. The service was mostly friendly and helpful, although some staff members seemed aloof. The central location was excellent for exploring Funchal, with easy access to shops, bars, and restaurants. The dining options varied from excellent to poor, and the facilities were satisfactory overall.
The hotel is ideally located in the heart of Funchal, allowing easy access to explore the city. The rooms, while clean and comfortable, lack appealing decor and functional amenities. The service, despite the friendliness of some staff members, fell short in terms of attentiveness and customer care. The dining options offer a good variety, although some areas could be improved. Overall, a convenient choice for those looking to be centrally located.
