Reid’s Palace, a Belmond Hotel, is a legendary retreat in Madeira. Its story began with a Scotsman, William Reid, who built up a thriving wine export business on the island. He decided to construct a palatial hotel on the promontory overlooking Funchal. It opened in 1891 and went on to attract illustrious guests from Sissi, the Empress of Austria, to Winston Churchill, the British prime minister.

Location Summary
Madeira and the neighbouring island of Porto Santo are situated in the Atlantic off the West African coast, just north of the Canaries. Madeira is 36 miles long and 14 miles wide and has a population of approximately 300,000. Porto Santo, 74 kilometres North East of Funchal, is much smaller - only nine miles long and three miles wide. The main attraction is an eight-kilometre long, white sand beach, in contrast to Madeira's breathtaking volcanic rock shoreline. Scotsman William Reid, founder a century ago of Madeira's now most celebrated hotel, would take justifiable pride in the wordwide reputation earned by this luxury hotel of classic distinction, whose name is today synonymous with that of Madeira itself. Owners scrupulously maintain Belmond Reid's Palace Hotel's tranquil ambience of civilized, old fashioned charm and courtesy, renowned by standards of service. Unchanging, too, is the hotel's magnificent headland setting high above the Atlantic waters of Funchal Bay, framed by ten acres of exquisite landscape garden.
