Var resa på väg neråt i Portugal. Och ville åka efter spanska gränsen. Fin liten ort även om gps levde sitt eget liv. Mycket trevligt att få ett glas portvin när man kommer och checkar in. Lite bristande på engelska men med gemensamma ansträngningar så löste det sig. Parkering precis utanför hotellet och hiss finns. Helt ok rum. Fick köra på full värme då det var kyligt ute.0 grader på natten. Liten bar men det mesta fanns. Vi provade lokal likör och det var helt ok. Till middag fanns en rätt. Friterad kalkon med ris pommes och grönsaker. Tog en flaska lokalt vin tilloc så blev det dessert och en Irish coffee till. Kostnaden blev 71euro för två. Var definitivt lågsäsong så man får vara glad att få i sig något. Finns restauranger runtom. Men vi var lite slitna. Finns fint poolområde men lite för kallt i december. Finns en by i närheten som ska vara byggd i grottor. Men vi lyckades inte hitta den. Funkar på resa och säkert bättre när det är varmare.

Estadia relaxante

A estadia correu muito bem. O acolhimento é excelente, as pessoas são muito prestáveis, atentas e simpáticas, é só perguntar e combinar a melhor forma. O hotel é antigo mas ainda confortável. O pequeno almoço é bom e fazem refeições variadas para almoço e jantar.

Friendly, comfortable and affordable

Cosy, warm friendly family hotel. Exentric interior and great breakfast buffet. Monfortinho is great outside the winter i guess, in december its pretty much deserted, but wandering in nature here is great, and its nice and quit. This hotel i would recommend to anyone in any season.

Una estancia muy tranquila

La relación calidad precio es muy buena. El hotel es antiguo, por lo que las habitaciones podían ser mejorables, pero en general está muy bien decorado y es acogedor y muy tranquilo. Cenamos comida típica portuguesa por muy buen precio y el desayuno es muy variado. El conserje es muy amable y habla español. No busques otra cosa de las estrellas que tiene, pero sin duda para repetir

Hotel ideal para relaxar

O espectável para um hotel de 2 estrelas, limpeza diária, alguns equipamentos não estavam em muito bom estado mas funcionavam. O pessoal era muito simpático mas nem todos estavam esclarecidos em relação a vários procedimentos internos do hotel, mas fomos sempre muito bem tratados.
