Hotel Caju is praised for its stylish and modern aesthetic, blending updated decor with historical elements. Guests frequently highlight the excellent location in the heart of Funchal, making it easy to walk to the city center and just a short walk to the marina. The breakfast is also a highlight, often mentioned for its quality and fresh options like homemade bread and delicious juices; some guests, however, have found the gym to be rather small.

The staff prepared a lovely breakfast to go since my flight departed early. It included a homemade sandwich plus boiled eggs and fruit. The location was perfect for exploring the area (a HUGE plus). I found many extra amenities in the room, LIKE bathrobes and slippers.
I noticed the gym was quite small. I did hope it would be a bit larger. The exercise equipment was very limited.
