Building in the Funchal centre, Drapes Design

Experience the centenary history of Madeira Embroidery in a building with excellent design and memories of local culture.

Right in the centre of Funchal, right next to Mercado dos Lavradores, this fantastic building offers you all the convenience, for a group of up to 12 people. Set in a building that used to house an old Madeira Embroidery House, this property is divided into six independent rooms, each named with a well-known Madeira Embroidery stitching name. With a modern and functional architecture, these rooms have small notes that take you back to the past and tell you a little about the island's embroidery. With a double bed, bathroom and fully equipped kitchenette, each room has the capacity to accommodate two people. For those who like to enjoy a nice relaxing moment in the open air, you can take advantage of the pleasant terrace, available on the top of the building, which has a kitchen, so that you can cook your meals "away from home". On the same terrace there is a laundry room. AREA A few metres from this property is the Edifício Anadia, a shopping centre with several shops, cafes, restaurants and a supermarket, in a privileged central area, right in the heart of the city of Funchal. A stone's throw from the Lavradores Market and the Old Town of Funchal, from here you can explore on foot the several touristic points of our beautiful city (ex. Cable Car, Funchal Marina, CR7 Museum, Sé Catedral, Madeira Wine Lodge, etc...) At the building's exit you have an excellent connection to the local bus network and to the entire island, covering the east and west zones, so you won't need to walk far if you want to enjoy these services. GETTING AROUND With bus stop practically at the doorstep, transport will not be a problem for our guests. Although the airport aerobus stops a 2-minute walk away, we recommend our private transfer partners, usually cheaper than airport taxis. Let us know in advance if you’d like to book this service.
