  Very good stay at Madeira Bright Star

  The hotel is comfortable, quiet, and located in a nice neighbourhood with restaurants nearby. Distance to the center of Funchal is 20 minutes on foot along the seafront which is very reasonable and a nice walk. Breakfast is great ! But the best about this hotel is the staff, they are very obliging, helpful and always have a kind work for their guests. The only minor issue is the absence of car par… Read moreThe hotel is comfortable, quiet, and located in a nice neighbourhood with restaurants nearby.

  My wife and I stayed here for 9 nights. The location was excellent with easy access to restaurants and bars, and the harbour was just a two munite walk away. A 20 to 30 minute walk would take you to the centre of town, old town, and cable car station.All areas of the hotel were spotlessly clean and had a modern feel. Every member of staff was pleasant, engaging and could not do enough to ensure ou… Read moreMy wife and I stayed here for 9 nights.

  If you are looking for value, look no further. The warm friendly welcome's included in the price.

  Last here in March 2023, our sixth visit. It has all the Government requirements for a four star, true it hasn't a 60 foot crystal chandelier in reception but the friendly, helpful smiling staff make up for that. You don't want to go far tonight, no probs, 4 bars, 15 good restaurants within ten minutes. You do want to go a bit further, a twenty minute walk to the centre of Funchal. I've looked at… Read moreLast here in March 2023, our sixth visit.

  Great for a short trip to Funchal

  We stayed at Madeira Bright Star for 3 nights during our roundtrip. It's a simple hotel, located near the port and centre of Funchal. Though the immediate surroundings (an empty lot, a car park and a busy street) do not seem very attractive, the location is great for a city trip to Funchal. The hotel staff is friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious enough and offered a balcony overlooking the… Read moreWe stayed at Madeira Bright Star for 3 nights during our roundtrip.

  Nice but not 4 star

  I hesitated between three and four for my rating. Bright Star is a nice hotel and is very well situated close to port and marina although it is next to a grotty empty site and a car park. The rooms were smart and large but basic. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast can be broken down into two parts; the cold options which were plentiful and tasty, and the hot options which were both… Read moreI hesitated between three and four for my rating.
