The Marketplace Apartments

Excellent apartment for location for restaurants, supermarket, and buses, not sure about parking. We will stay again without hesitation.

Great location, and a spacious room. I do recommend for anyone looking to stay by the old part of Funchal or close to the water. The pedestrian road is lined with lots of cafes and options for great food. Delicious! Only drawback is that there is no staff and we had to rely on a whats App chat to coordinate our checkin. Thankfully my phone (canadian) worked on arrival in Lisbon and then Madeira and we recieved our checkin code. Like all hotels in Madeira a tourist tax is charged but needed to be coordinated a few days prior and by a money transfer (money Gram worked!). It was a bit more work than perhaps another hotel would have required but once it was done there were no issues: the staff on the chat were prompt and provided clear instructions.

Check in process was a bit challenging as no one is at the property and it’s all done virtually. Location is right in the centre which can be a bonus but also at night it is very loud .

Bellissimo appartamento con tutti i confort. Colazione buona e varia

This property is in a great, central location, close to shops, restaurants & all amenities. The check-in was very simple & Cristina was a great help. The apartment has all the facilities you need & is an ideal base for a few days in Funchal

The property is very clean and quiet located in the busiest downtown area. The supermarkets are three minutes away. The service staffs are very responsive. There is AC in the room. I will definitely stay this place again. The only thing I think they can improve is to ask the cleaning ladies to chat in a lower volume every morning when they work. I can hear them chatting in the public area from my bedroom. But if you wake up and leave your room before 9am, this is not an issue at all.

Perfecte locatie, erg schoon, er weer iedere dag schoongemaakt. Heel dicht bij alle restaurants, terrassen en openbaar vervoer. Beneden zit een goede bakker met coffee to go, op 2 minuten lopen een supermarkt. Wij hebben absoluut geen geluidsoverlast gehad. Een fijn smal balkon waar 2 keukenstoelen en een klein tafeltje op passen, heerlijk om te ontbijten of even een drankje te drinken.

Le petit déjeuner à ma porte le premier matin, très belle attention! Très propre, excellent emplacement!

We stayed at the Marketplace Apartment for a week in September. The whole staff, both on and off site, was very friendly and helpful. I was sent the access codes for self check-in via email upon arriving. The whole process was very easy and straightforward. Our apartment was cleaned everyday and the staff did a great job. The place was spacious, had everything we needed with a fully equipped kitchen. It's located in the middle of old town with coffee shops, large grocery stores, shops and Mercado do Lavradores just steps away. We loved the location and enjoyed our stay!

Excellent location/ very clean! Would definitely stay here again

Excellent location near cathedral, coffee shop next door for tasty refreshments, Pingo Dolce supermarket opposite, boutique stores on the same road.

I love the Markeptplace apartments - clean and functional and right bang in the middle of an exciting town with plenty of access to travel and entertainment. My room was kept spotless every day and, with a supermarket just round the corner, I was able to keep the place well supplied.

La communication ! Nickel et l'accueil une fois sur place tres appréciable

Excellent location in the center. Walking to get to all the nice and important places in the city. Opposite the apartment is an old market and shops, or near the bus station and cable car. Equipment aprtman excellent.

Booking for The Marketplace apartments. Five days before arriving, the hotel informed us that the room is not available and moved on another hotel : Five rooftop (cheaper than the previous one). They gave us no reason for unavailability. After asking for compensation : nothing (just two days before arriving they proposed to cancel for free... but 2 days before there is no vacancy at Funchal, so you are held in hostage!!!). When we arrived late in the evening : - No baby bed => so we need to sleep with my child in the same bed - Hotel very close two building works and with very bad sound proofing - They indicate we got the room 3 at the third floor but it does not exist, need to knock at other rooms door to understand where is the room... - No car park and no possibility to access with the car close to the hotel (so late in the night you have to bear all your luggage and and after looking for a car park...). On expedia, it is clearly indicated that there is a car park on the initial booked Hotel. With my wife who is pregnant, it was an horrible stay. It is my first time I wrote a bad review, although I travel very regularly. Definitely, I don t recommend.

Excelente ubicación. Apartamento limpio y nuevo, con lavadora y cocina. Un poco de ruido de la calle.

An amazing apartment right in the middle of the main pedestrian street in Funchal - strangely quiet at night, but with access to all the best bits of the city. I loved the layout of the apartment, larger than a studio, and with all you need to live independently - and the market's just across the road!!!

Centralt, fräscht hotell med smidig incheckning. Vi saknade dock en del köksgrejer för att kunna laga mat (sax, bra kniv, mixer m.m). Jag hade gärna haft sopsortering också vilket verkar finnas i stan.

This property location was excellent with easy access to shops, supermarkets, gym and the beach. No reception available which made it a bit tricky but overall manageable.

Highly recommend this apartment! Excellent location one block from Mercado and Art Opens Doors project in Old Town. Actually, everyplace walkable from here. Housekeeper wonderful! Mgmt set up all my excursions! Very helpful. Stress free.
