Hotel Windsor

Frommer's Review

Opened with fanfare in 1987, this is still one of the most stylish hotels in Funchal. The government-rated four-star hotel consists of two buildings connected by an aerial passage above a sun-flooded enclosed courtyard. The marble-sheathed lobby is laden with plants, wicker chairs, and Art Deco accessories. The free parking garage is almost a necessity in this crowded commercial neighborhood. Rooms are not particularly large, and few have views, but they are comfortable and nicely decorated, with wall-to-wall carpeting and wooden furniture. They all come equipped with well-maintained bathrooms containing tub/shower combinations. The hotel has a cafe-bar designed to resemble a Jazz Age nightclub, as well as the more formal Windsor Restaurant. It serves reasonably good and moderately priced Portuguese and international cuisine, with local swordfish as a specialty.
