Great Hotel near Peneda-Gerês Park

Hotel São Bento is a beautiful hotel in a great location near Peneda-Gerês national park. Everyone at the hotel were very friendly, kind, and helped us in English to address our limited Portuguese vocabulary. The restaurant was delicious as well, and the nearby park has amazing viewpoints (miradouros), waterfalls (cascatas) and hiking. We would definitely come back and stay at this hotel again.

Dejligt hotel overfor st. Bento katedral.

Fint hotel midt i Geres lige overfor den 2. Mest besøgte katedral i Portugal. Dog er der messe fra 15 til 17 med højtalere på men det er meget hyggeligt. Fin restaurant med rimelige priser. Kan varm anbefales.

points faibles

hôtel très bien , chambre propre ,lit confortable. pour un 4 étoiles , la robinetterie pourrais être meilleur : simple robinet mélangeur avec vieux pommeau de douche qui diffuse grosses gouttes désagréables . la télé est vraiment petite , je trouve que une piscine intérieur aurait été très bien aussi. ce mois de Mars il y avait peu de monde dans l'hôtel et pour le petit déjeuner buffet , ça été un problème parfois il y avait tout et d'autres fois non .une journée pour savoir ce l'on voulait pour le lendemain on nous a fait remplir une feuille mais pas systématiquement .en fin de séjour au petit déjeuner il n'y avait pas de buffet et nous avait préparé donc sans nous le dire la même chose qu'au début mais bon on a pas forcément envie de manger tout les jours la même chose ! j'était vraiment déçu.

Estadia em família agradável!

Foi uma estadia agradável, tendo em conta relação qualidade preço e a altura do ano. Ponto mais negativo para falta de vista nos quartos localizados para a parte traseira do hotel e ausência de um welcome gift no quarto. Destaco o bom pequeno almoço e o snooker a disposição dos hóspedes ao longo do dia.
