Superb hotel in a great location.
Very clean bedrooms and all areas of the hotel.
The breakfast was brilliant, with lots of choice.
But the best thing to me are the staff, who are all VERY helpful and cheerful.
You can have a lovely building, rooms, food etc, but if the staff aren't pleasant then it's not good.
I have to say ALL the staff members i met were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.
VERY LOVELY HOTEL.

Posted 28 Feb 2024 on HotelsHad a lovely week stay here. The hotel is lovely, we had a mini suite which had a lounge, bedroom and very large balcony with partial sea view. Breakfast is great lots of choice and all fresh. The best thing is the location, on the flat right in the old town, walking distance to nearly everything.

Jan 2024 stay
Posted 21 Jan 2024 on HotelsVery nice hotel in great location in the "old town" and on the sea front. We had a standard room with a small balcony overlooking the park. This was a bit noisy on the Friday and Saturday nights so it's best to pay the extra for a sea view room.
Funchel itself is very nice and not expensive, the people are very friendly.

Great location and facilities. We were there for New year, the gala dinner was excellent , the staff went above and beyond to entertain the guests. I would definitely recommend hotel for older or infirm as they seemed very well catered for. The only thing I could fault was the breakfast juice from a machine was awful, more like squash.
