The room was really nice and clean. There is a shared kitchen, where you can have breakfast and even cook something if you want. The shared bathroom is really clean. The host is also very friendly and gives a complete presentation from the beginning. Nice courtyard as well, there is a terrace where you can sit and enjoy a drink! :)

The hostel is in a beautiful old building that is extremely well-maintained in the heart of the old town. Rooms are spacious with high ceilings. Fabulous kitchen. Both receptionists we met are very efficient, friendly and helpful and we’d like to give them our thanks for making our stay a pleasant experience. In order to have twin beds we chose to forego a private bathroom, but the communal facilities were so great it was not an inconvenience. Plenty powerful hot showers. The location is perfect with many attractions within walking distance.

The hostel is located near the center. The shared bathroom is a shared bathroom within your room which I prefer over a large shared bathroom. Also an airconditioned room is great.

The staff at the hostel were so welcoming, helpful and friendly. Helder, Carla and Grandma go above and beyond to make you feel at home. There’s a very warm atmosphere at the hostel. One thing I def need to point out, the beds were actually sooo comfortable, which I wasn’t expecting. Like really nice memory foam mattresses, not like the usual thin prison mattresses you get. Will definitely be back

All hostels in Funchal

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great little place, doesn’t have a vibe of a hostel so great for people who are on a budget but not so social, two owners are really nice and helpful, they keep the place very clean. Location is very central, few mins walk to everything you need. Great showers. Wifi was fine for working but did sometimes cut of for a minute (209.1 Mbps download, 10.9 Mbps upload), the annoying thing was that every floor has a different wifi network. I had unlimited data but there was barely any signal on the patio to be able to use it.

    I had recently stayed 5 nights in 29 Madeira Hostel. It was a truly fantastic experience. First and foremost, the staff are exceptional, especially Andrea with her genuine willingness to assist with any inquiries or concerns. The dormitory rooms were clean, comfortable, well-maintained and the beds were cozy. I was pleasantly surprised by the level of cleanliness maintained throughout the hostel, including the shared bathrooms and common areas. Great location within walking distance of major attractions, restaurants, and public transportation.
