A large contemporary five-star hotel on Funchal's seafront avenue with two indoor and two outdoor pools, a rooftop infinity pool and an extensive multi-floor spa built into the property's lower levels.
Savoy Palace sits on Avenida do Infante, Funchal's seafront avenue in Madeira, within walking distance of the city's marina and a short drive from the old town and cathedral. The hotel occupies a large, contemporary building that replaced an earlier Savoy property on the same site, and its scale sets it apart from the island's smaller boutique hotels. Rooms range from Deluxe categories through Premium Ocean View rooms, Junior Suites and a Savoy Suite, most with balconies facing the Atlantic. The hotel operates several restaurants covering international and Portuguese cuisine, plus a rooftop bar and lounge. Water facilities are extensive for the island, with two indoor and two outdoor pools plus a rooftop infinity pool overlooking the seafront, complemented by a large multi-floor spa built into the lower levels of the building, offering thermal circuits, saunas and a full treatment menu. A kids club operates seasonally, making the hotel workable for families as well as couples drawn to the spa. Service is geared toward a broad leisure clientele, with concierge staff experienced in arranging island tours, and the property's size means it can absorb larger groups and events more readily than Funchal's smaller heritage hotels.
