The town is well worth a visit.
The town is well worth a visit.
It was a shame we didn't have more time fo the thermal baths - they're not open on a Sunday.
Buçaco forest is magical, make lots of time to go there and spend at least a full day.
If you can stay in the Palace, it is well worth it.

The Bussaco Castle was beyond our expectations, the hotel staff were amazing, a representative showed us the lobby area and the amenities prior to our room arrival after our check in. We had a fantastic room (The Queen room). There are several activities to do such the visit to the convent/museum, the shop, and long walking trails in the forest, this was an incredible stay for us to celebrate a very special event, we had dinner at the hotel and the dinner was superb, the bartender knows how to make great mix drinks, the entire staff in the hotel were welcoming, friendly and courteous. This castle is truly one of a kind and highly recommend it to my friends!

Located in the heart of the Serra do Bussaco, Palace Hotel do Bussaco is an excellent example of Manueline-Gothic architecture. Its richly decorated corridors feature antique furnishings, large paintings and traditional Portuguese glazed tiles. Bussaco National Forest is wonderful.

Luso itself is a small nineteenth-century spa town--not much to do there except 'take the waters' (which my wife did, very enthusiastically) and walk in the national forest. It's a place for the sensitive, quieter traveller, rather than someone seeking thrills and excitement.
This beautiful property is run by a very, very sweet couple. We only stayed one night as a quick stop so we could visit the Bussaco National Forest and Palace, and it was perfect. The grounds were gorgeous, they had a little swing set and slide for our 2 year old son to play on, breakfast was delicious, and the hosts recommended a great restaurant in Luso for dinner. Wish we would have been there for warmer weather to enjoy the pool! Next time!
Wonderful location near Luso and Mealhada. Amazing property tucked away on small hill. There are citrus trees, a nice garden and beautiful old trees. Plenty of space in the room and access to the house living room for reading or TV in the evening. Breakfast was delicious, with fresh jam, fresh squeezed OJ, and much more, served in a formal dining room. Pool wasn’t open (it was March) but you can sit next to it and enjoy the garden/sun.
The experience is unique. It was the 3rd time I have stayed at Bussaco. The history of the building, the nature and surroundings of the Bussaco forest, and the friendliness of the staff just added to a great stay.
We celebrated a friends 70th birthday, and it could not have been in a better place and atmosphere. It is for travelers who enjoy and truly appreciate the hidden gems of Portugal. Bussaco Palace remains a must!
5 stars Hotel with a 5 star Restaurant.
Very, very good experience, in a building full of history. The building is amazing surrounded by kilometers and kilometers of forest and a monestary. You sleep in one century of history.
The restaurant was amazing and the breakfast wonderfull.
Sylvia was a most kind, gracious hostess. There to check me in, there in the morning to cook a to-order breakfast in a beautiful dining room. An elegant old home with a handful of rooms, furnished with antiques. Spacious, up-to-date bathroom. Pretty, quiet grounds and easy parking.
The staff were really helpful, and friendly. They were considerate, and especially helpful with showing me how to access transport to nearby towns. I enjoyed staying in beautiful Luso, and I'd be happy to return to this hotel.
Charming, historical hotel well located in Luso. Lovely grounds and pool with bar. Parking either on site or loads of room outside. Room plainly decorated but very comfortable. Very welcoming owners.
Beautiful, old hotel. Good value.
It was very clean, comfortable.
Great staff, so helpful.
The rooms are very small, but for the little time you are in the room it is not a problem.
Beautiful building with history attached to it ! Fantastic location with work wonderful views! Just perfect to visit luso ..
Hosts are just lovely couldn’t rate my stay high enough !!
This hotel was definitely the highlight of our trip through Portugal. The castle itself is incredible! The room was pretty modest. Great delicious breakfast.
