4-star boutique design hotel in central Funchal with rooms by Nini Andrade Silva
Accommodations
Funchal Design Hotel offers 16 rooms and apartments, each with unique layouts created by acclaimed local designer Nini Andrade Silva. Some apartments include a kitchen, diner, and living room, enough for a family with children. All rooms have air conditioning, private bathrooms, and mountain views, with glass features that extend the living space visually.
Dining
The on-site restaurant serves a continental buffet breakfast with warm dishes, fresh pastries, local cheese, fruits, and juice. A street dining option allows guests to eat outdoors in the pedestrian-friendly area. Room service and breakfast in the room are available for early departures, with take-away breakfast bags offered upon request.
Services & Transfers
The hotel operates a complimentary airport shuttle service from Cristiano Ronaldo Madeira International Airport, 20 km away. A 24-hour front desk provides luggage storage, safety deposit boxes, and car hire arrangements. The hotel also offers daily housekeeping, laundry service, and a minimarket on site for convenience.
Location
Located in central Funchal, the hotel is a 15-minute walk from Almirante Reis Beach and 700 metres from Marina do Funchal. The Madeira Casino is less than 1 km away, and the Plaza Madeira shopping centre is close by. Public transport and city landmarks are easily accessible on foot, with scuba diving available in the surroundings.
Design & Atmosphere
The hotel's artistic decor differs from traditional establishments, with mirrors and irregular shapes creating playful spaces in some apartments. A small lobby and a welcoming communal vibe encourage interaction among guests and staff. The glass-walled bathrooms, while noted in reviews for minimal privacy, are a deliberate design choice by Nini Andrade Silva.
