The Reid is fabulous - it would get a five star except that the “shower” in our room was in an extremely slippery bathtub with no rubber mat. Almost fell several times.

A wonderful property. Elegant and luxurious. Full of the charm of an older era but with every modern convenience and comfort of a true 5 star hotel of today. The management and staff were outstanding . Beautiful setting overlooking Funchal and the sea, surrounded by very pretty gardens. A perfect holiday

Reid's Palace is the perfect mix of history and luxury. Loved our stay here, right from the moment we arrived to the time we left, all the staff were fantastic, so friendly and helpful. Attention to detail is incredible and there were so many unexpected lovely touches - welcome cakes and drinks in the room, small gifts with the evening turndown service, water bottles at the front door to take when going out for the day to name but a few. The hotel building is amazing both inside and out, there are so many places to explore, the gardens are a must - we found our perfect shaded spot, away from the pools on our last day! The views from the terrace are spectacular and combined with Afternoon Tea it's an unforgettable experience!
