Nuno, the Manager, was well versed in English, helpful, and knowledgeable about the area. He provided us good guidance to explore the hotspots in the area. I would not recommend driving through this area unless you are willing to accept a few surprises with the GPS and locating the various attractions, including your hotel! I would recommend walking within a 10 minute radius of this hotel to find and explore various restaurant choices for food. Don’t settle for the first one you see!There’s a beautiful 19th century castle within 15 minute driving range of this hotel. Highly recommend a visit quite a bit of interesting short hikes and springs and waterfalls around the palace. However, I wouldn’t recommend staying at the Palace hotel. Food there is pricey. And it is very secluded. Just get a couple of drinks or a sandwich at the palace hotel, which will allow me an opportunity to take some pictures of this architectural marvel! Highly recommend visiting the natural holy water, spring! Quite unique, and all of our travels are around the world!

スタッフのおばあちゃんが優しかった。 建物もポルトガルらしさが感じられてよかった。 部屋も清潔で、喧騒がなく、水と空気が良くて気持ちよかった。LisbonよりもLusoの方がまったり出来て好きです。 狭く曲がりくねった道が多いこと、急斜面が多いこと、道にゴミがないこと、伝統的な家が多いこと、食べ物等、私の出身である日本の地方都市に似ているなと思った。 Lusoでは小鳥の囀りで目が覚め、夕暮れに教会の鐘が1時間か30分おきくらいに鳴る。日本の地方では、教会の鐘が、お寺の鐘か小学校のチャイムに置き換わるくらいで、やはり似ているな、と。

Schönes Hotel, in einer alten voilla schön an einem Berg gelegen. Zum Hochfahren sollte man gut motorisiert sein da die Straßen sehr steil sind. Toller Pool im Garten. Frühstück eher nicht so toll. Speiseauswahl begrenzt. Ansonsten sehr stylisch.

Sehr stilvolles und im klassischen Rahmen geführtes Hotel. Dennoch hatte unser Zimmer ein tolles, modernes Bad. Geradezu eine Perle ist der in einem Garten gelegene Poolbereich mit ebenfalls sehr stilvoller Bar (tolle Preise: Caipirinha € 3,50!). Und morgens die Aussicht von der grün überwachsenen Frühstücksterrasse auf den Ort hat etwas von einem klassischen Gemälde. Phantastische Stimmung!
