Albergaria Dias

We loved our stay at this charming and traditional hotel. Friendly and welcoming staff and very hard-working across all services. Good breakfast options, lovely hot water and powerful shower, spotlessly clean throughout, lovely deep swimming pool, and very pleasing gardens with easy access to the old town. Decor a little dated, but everything is to a high standard so no need to change it. Good balcony space with picturesque views. Brilliant base with the whole of Funchal on your doorstep. We had a great holiday!

Absolutely lovely week at Albergaria Dias. All the staff are so kind, thoughtful, helpful and genuinely care about their guests. Cecilia and Luisa at reception were always helpful. The waiters and sons of the owner were always attentive and welcoming. It was peaceful, lovely clean pool, well priced drinks and snacks, plentiful breakfast and a gate that takes you into the centre of the old town with so many restaurants to choose from. The cable car is 5 minutes walk and was very enjoyable. I felt sad leaving Madeira and will certainly return again. We will definitely return to Albergaria Dias.

Just had a fantastic stay at this hotel staying in rm 103. Check in was smooth. The staff are absolutely amazing. It's a long time since we stayed in a hotel where the staff provide the personal touch like this. They are so friendly and welcoming. The breakfast is really nice with hot and cold options. Bar snacks round the pool were tasty and reasonably priced. The hotel is clean and comfortable. We had a pool/sea/garden view which was amazing. The pool area and gardens are really pretty. There is a path of flowers and grape vines leading directly into the Old Town area with all the bars and restaurants. The hotel is like a little oasis, quiet and pretty. We will 100% return. We love Funchal. It's a walkable, safe city. Thank you so much to Katarina, Cecilia, Luisa and all the staff for a happy, relaxing and memorable stay.

What a goldmine of a hotel. Staff lovely , location perfect and breakfast amazing (only thing missing was a kettle in the room ) and just a 1 minute walk to the old town. Would highly recommend the West tour . Would not normally go back to the same place twice but would do on this occasion

Let me say 1st and foremost this is a family run hotel and you know it the moment you enter. The front desk staff went above & beyond (special mention to Cecilia & Louisa). No requests to big or small….they are on it! Breakfast/bar/restaurant servers were amazing. Thanks Sandip, Sunhil, Anil, & Keanu. Special thanks to Mr. Diaz & his family that we were privileged to meet! Forgive me if I’ve left off some names! Highly recommend! Best location in Funchal.

Stayed mid April 2024. Nice room with comfortable beds and lovely view. Well-tended grounds to admire while eating pleasant breakfasts and light lunches. In the Old Town close to excellent restaurants for dinner. The most notable feature of the hotel is the excellent and attentive staff for whom nothing is too much trouble. Particular thanks to Cecilia, Luisa and Carla whose welcome at reception set the tone for our whole stay. Look forward to our second visit.
