Set off the cliffs overlooking the Bay of Funchal and the Atlantic, Reid's Palace Hotel has, for over 100 years, been a standard-bearer for excellence on Madeira and beyond. Scotsman William Reid, founder in 1891 of Madeira's now most celebrated hotel, would take justifiable pride in the worldwide reputation earned by this luxury hotel of classic distinction, whose name is today synonymous with that of Madeira itself. A home away from home to many of the most prominent people of the 20th century. It has developed and maintained a deserved reputation as one of the foremost hotels in the world. With a varied choice of restaurants and sporting facilities, two heated saltwater swimming pools, private access to the ocean via a seaside rock pool and extensive gardens. The hotel prides itself on an individual attention to the requirements of its guests. Whatever the reason for their voyage, the choice of the discerning traveler has always been Reid's Palace Hotel.
