The room itself was clean and very spacious. We had a sea view and balcony. The bathroom was nicely fitted and the shower was excellent. The kitchen was ample - full size cooker and fridge with top part being a freezer (for the ice of course!). I found the beds were reasonably comfortable and i slept well, i have slept... More

We exchanged a timeshare week, October 2011, and it was a hotel/self catering room. The room was large with a wonderful sea view and we able to sleep with the balcony doors open to the sound of the sea which was fantastic. The room was large albeit the facilities a little tired. This was the only downside really, because it... More

Stayed in a single bed self catering. This hotel needs a refurbishment. While reasonally clean and seriviced daily, It is a bit tired and needs work. Kitchen applicances are old. Fan over the stove is missing. Bed needs replacing as it is worn out.Gym and Pool available. The Island is well worth a visit. More

This hotel is right on the coast and we were able to go to sleep and wake up to the sound of the waves. Our room was enormous, with a kitchen and sitting area and a large balcony from which we could watch the waves break on the rocks below and the cruise liners pass on their way to Funchal.... More

I had read the reviews therefore was not expecting what we found. Our suite was superb, obviously very recently redecorated. Lovely kitchenette, stylish lounge area and fabulous huge balcony over looking the sea. The room was at the end therefore had no neighbours and as the hotel was quite empty, we felt like we had the place to ourselves.Very quiet... More

I stayed a single night in this hotel in December as Funchal airport was closed and TAP very kindly put me in this hotel. I had not booked or intended to stay in this hotel and did not pay for my stay so my review is based on what room I had and the experience of the hotel. The room... More

The Royal Orchid is a hotel that appears to be resting on past glories. It lacks buzz, it lacks excitement, it lacks any sense of dynamism. To some extent, time has stood still at the Royal Orchid. The staff were perfectly polite, provided all the answers when asked, and were friendly, but they, too, seem to have been caught up... More

This was our third stay @ the Royal Orchid which must mean something. The reception staff were the usual friendly & happy people which we have come to expect of the people of this lovely island. The credit crunch has certainly hit the restaurants but it hasn't dimmed their spirits. The waiting & room cleaning staff were friendly & helpful.... More

This was the first time that we had been to Madeira. Not many English staying at Hotel. We didnt eat at the hotel as we were self catering and tended to eat out at local restaurants. The hotel was clean and the room was cleaned and fresh towels were in our apartment every day. The sea view was stunning from... More
