Hotel Apartamento Alto Lido

Hotel Apartamento Alto Lido is a mid-range aparthotel at Estrada Monumental 316, in the Lido and São Martinho hotel zone of Funchal, Madeira, Portugal. It stands on the main coastal avenue of the western hotel belt, a few kilometres from the old town, the Mercado dos Lavradores and the cable car to Monte, which visitors normally reach by taxi or bus. The Lido seafront is the nearest area to walk to. The property is operated by the Cardoso Madeira Hotels group and combines hotel service with apartment-style accommodation, a format that suits longer stays and small groups. Room types are double rooms, junior suites and studios, giving a choice between conventional hotel rooms and more self-contained layouts. Listed amenities include an outdoor pool, a heated indoor pool, a sauna, spa massages and two restaurants, one of which is named Flor de Sal. The indoor pool and sauna make the hotel pleasant in cooler months, while the outdoor pool serves the summer season. Two restaurants allow breakfast and dinner on site, and the neighbourhood adds cafes, supermarkets and further restaurants within a short distance. The spa massages offer a restful option after hiking the levadas or exploring the city. Service is aimed at holidaymakers who want hotel facilities without the scale of a large resort, and the price range is the lower mid-range band, with a rating of 4.3. The location along the Estrada Monumental is served by buses into the centre, and the airport is around 20 to 25 minutes away by road depending on traffic. Excursions to Monte, Câmara de Lobos, Cabo Girão and the north coast can be arranged through local operators. The terrain is steep, so taxis are practical for evening returns from the old town. Guests who want a kitchenette or extra space should confirm the specifics of each studio before booking.
