This hotel is truly authentic, with rooms that are both very clean and uniquely designed. It’s centrally located, making it easy to explore, and the surrounding area is absolutely gorgeous. The stay was extremely comfortable, with everything you could possibly need thoughtfully provided. The toiletries were excellent, and even fresh water was left for a nightcap. A wonderful experience overall!

This was my favorite hotel during my trip to Portugal! My room at the hotel was very nice. The breakfast was excellent. And the staff were excellent as well. The location is within walking distance of the castle, shopping and also very good restaurants. The hotel has a Michelin restaurant. We ate there and it is excellent.

Very nice hotel modern and clean. Staff were very helpful and sent parking instructions beforehand. Breakfast very good too. The only issue we had was the air conditioning didn’t work to our room. We moved to another room which was fine. Recommended!

We like the location of the property in the old town. It was centrally located and within easy walking distance to many restaurants and sights. It is a nice walk to the old castle. It is also conveniently located so you can walk into the newer parts of town to shop and eat as well. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The buffet breakfast was well appointed and nicely laid out with excellent service. Eggs are freshly cooked to your preference. The wooden shutters on the room balcony and window were very nice. Hotel parking is at site located a short walk from the hotel and google maps directions to the hotel direct you up a one-way street. The only negative is that there was an issue with the shower pan separating form the wall in one corner which caused some moisture damage to show on the shower wall.

A Great Place to Stay

A fabulous boutique hotel in the historic centre of an historic town. Friendly, helpful staff, comfortable rooms and a good breakfast made for a memorable stay. Parking is secure either underground or on the street, albeit about 100m from the hotel. There are many restaurants, bars etc. very close-by.
