Great location, clean and cozy. The friendliest staff. The receptionist was the sweetest and most helpful, and gave many good advises about Madeira.

Probably one of the best hostels I’ve stayed in in terms of comfort. It’s an old house that’s been done up and the rooms are big enough, beds are great and modern with a privacy curtain and plenty of storage. Kitchen had everything I needed + the courtyard was cute to meet some people! Would recommend.

The hostel is great! Amazing staff, trust and non problematic atmosphere. The smoothest check in. I met there fanatic people, that straight away became my family. I got a single bed in mixed dorm that was super comfy and i have enough privacy.

The place is perfect for the distance to the airport, the room was ok, shared with another solo traveller. The surrounding is good, Santa Cruz is a small and cute place, worth half a day of visiting

The hostel is ideally located in the old town, close to the nice places of Funchal. The room was all cleaned, well equiped, and beautiful. We had very nice expérience there. I also recommand to go to the restaurant downstairs which is very good. Nice welcome from both hostel and restaurant.

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.
