The room was big enough, cozy and modern. I felt like i was in my own bedroom!!!! It was super clean, towels, shampoo and bodywash were given from the hotel. The atmosphere was lovely and inclusive (there’s a common kitchen that everyone can use). One of the best cheap city hostel i’ve ever been to!!!

I liked pretty much everything - clean room, great location, great downstairs lobby, even better upstairs roof area with bbq, lounge chairs. It really is an amazing property, very convenient to check-in and check put with key box, super convenient to stay when exploring the north-east of Madeira. We don’t surf, but we met other surfers that came to Madeira Surf Camp and they loved it.

All hostels in Funchal

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Great little place, doesn’t have a vibe of a hostel so great for people who are on a budget but not so social, two owners are really nice and helpful, they keep the place very clean. Location is very central, few mins walk to everything you need. Great showers. Wifi was fine for working but did sometimes cut of for a minute (209.1 Mbps download, 10.9 Mbps upload), the annoying thing was that every floor has a different wifi network. I had unlimited data but there was barely any signal on the patio to be able to use it.

I had recently stayed 5 nights in 29 Madeira Hostel. It was a truly fantastic experience. First and foremost, the staff are exceptional, especially Andrea with her genuine willingness to assist with any inquiries or concerns. The dormitory rooms were clean, comfortable, well-maintained and the beds were cozy. I was pleasantly surprised by the level of cleanliness maintained throughout the hostel, including the shared bathrooms and common areas. Great location within walking distance of major attractions, restaurants, and public transportation.
