SUPERB COCKTAILS AND SERVICE
we were on board a ship with an overnight stop in Funchal, so 5 of us decided to have predinner cocktails at the hotel. What an unexpectedly fabulous experience. From the witty staff - all great fun - to delicious cocktails on an impressive Colonial terrace with stunning bay views. Quite an experience ! we will return as hotel guests !

Outstanding!
The service was exceptional. The property is stunning and the rooms are appointed to a very high standard, although the bathrooms could be modernised. Having direct access to the sea was a real treat and the enormous choice at breakfast was much appreciated. There was a wonderful oldfashioned charm to the place.

"Reid's Palace was the best hotel I have ever experienced . Staffs were super friendly and everything was possible from the concierge. Reid's made my honeymoon perfect."
-I. Yoon
An extraordinary value! Reid's Palace Hotel is a handsome historic property featuring breathtaking water views, exotic gardens, a full range of amenities and delicious and varied food options. We found the staff to be very helpful and dedicated to making our 4-day stay with them a holiday in every sense. We appreciated the extra attention the staff paid to getting us in and out of the airport, circumventing the crowds and shortening our travel and wait times. This is Luxury Link at its best.
