Pousada de BelmonteSerra da Esperança, 6250-000 Belmonte (Show map) Very good, Score from 126 reviews“A beautiful Pousada with a terrific restaurant.”
Craig,
Wynnewood
Set in the medieval Monastery of Nossa Senhora da Esperança, this charming boutique hotel features a restaurant serving traditional dishes from the Castelo Branco district. It is located on the slopes of Esperança Mountains. The elegant restaurant offers local dishes with a contemporary touch, and a seasonal mushroom menu. The chapel has been converted into a lounge and bar, yet keeps many original features. All the rooms of Pousada de Belmonte have a balcony overlooking the Estrela Mountains Nature Reserve. They feature antique furniture, wrought-iron bed frames, and are decorated with stonework and relaxing sand colors. Pousada de Belmonte has a large terrace with a swimming pool and lounge chairs. Guests can enjoy horseback riding, fishing and hiking in the local area. The town of Belmonte is half a mile from the Pousada de Belmonte. Hotel Rooms: 24

Superb ambience, great service and amazing food. Belmonte is a very interesting town to explore with 5 excellent museums. Breakfast was disappointing considering the superb standards of the restaurant for dinner. The expression is chalk and cheese! If they sort that out then it will be perfect.

Sympathetically restored leaving some original features. Good restaurant albeit very expensive with no set menu offered. Spacious rooms. Our room was very noisy due to broken air conditioning unit. Even when the system was switched off, this still made a noise and kept us awake every night of our stay (2 nights). There was no telephone number for Reception in our room so we had to go in person at 2am in the morning to complain, the Receptionist just said they would turn the whole system off. No offer for us to change rooms. When they did this, it made the room very cold! We mentioned this in the morning but they seemed very loathe to move us although the hotel was almost empty and we were too tired at this stage to move anyway. There was a sewerage smell from the bathroom. Large rugs in loung area of hotel stained in 2 parts. Upon checking out no offer of a reduction in payment or even an apology. The machine would not work to take our payment and we had to use our remaining cash which was inconvenient! Suffice to say, we are not very happy! No leisure facilities at all apart from an outdoor pool which was too cold to use. Restaurant good but very expensive with no set menu! Our intention of a short break was to relax and we came home more tired than when we arrived!!

The reception rooms are cleverly built around the ruins of the monastery and make for a good place to read or have a drink. Good views from the rooms over the countryside. The swimming pool is small and sometimes full of other guests. There is no lift and no excuse for not having one in what, by Portuguese standards, is an expensive hotel.

Excelente localização, simpatia dos funcionários. Algumas esquecimentos na arrumação dos quartos. Algumas falhas de reposição de alimentos no buffet do pequeno almoço.

A localização é excelente,a parte antiga da pousada é fantástica pelo seu tipo de construção. A comida no restaurante é excelente mas é pena o restaurante não servir refeições tradicionais da zona.

Wunderschöne Lage in einer tollen Pousada mit sehr schönen Zimmern mit Blick auf die Berge. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Frückstücksbuffet eher enttäuschend. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt leider nicht ganz.

Muy bonita la decoración y el entorno natural Cuando llegué no fucionaba la calefacción en la habitación. Me dicen que me cambian a otra porque no consiguen arreglarlo. Me pasan a otra habitación de inferior categoría e inferior tamaño a la contratada. En la reserva de booking indicaba botella de vino, fruta y desayuno en la habitación. Sólo la botella llegó. Me quedé asombrado cuando voy a pagar y me cobran la habitación superior con todos los servicios extras. Comenté la situación en la recepción durante el check out, pero no hizieron caso.

Os Funcionários são muito simpáticos, educados e prestaveis. A Pousada em si é muito interessante. O pequeno almoço que pedi para o quarto mereceu fotografia que publiquei no Facebook :) Estava realmente MUITO BOM!! É um sítio mt especial, a conhecer. Gostei! A Pousada de Belmonte é um monumento Nacional e, como tal, não sei até que ponto a intervenção no seu restauro pode ou não integrar vidros/proteção nas portas da sala de estar maior, antigo corpo de igreja. O que é certo é que, nestes dias de frio, o grande aquecedor a gás e os outros não chegam!!! Falta uma grande lareira, alem da tal proteção mais eficaz contra o frio na dita sala e nos corredores. No entanto, faço notar que o quarto estava super quentinho pois podemos pô-lo à temperatura que queremos, com comando no local.

é impossivel não ficar impressionado com o design, conforto e bom gosto de todos os espaços do Convento de Belmonte. Os funcionários são de uma disponibilidade, delicadeza e simpatia extraordinários. Do melhor que pude experienciar até hoje. O Restaurante Gourmet é uma de uma qualidade indescritivel... Será necessário provar para perceber a maravilha de sabores que proporcionam. Não gostei de ter ficado apenas 1 noite... Gostaria de ficar mais.

O lugar é fantástico, a decoração aproveitando o entorno excelente, a disponibilidade e simpatia do pessoal. O restaurante muito bom também. Parece-me incrível que um lugar tão bem concebido falhe em algo tão básico com o ruido do aquecimento à noite que nos impediu de dormir, na segunda noite foi possível desligar o aquecimento geral e assim podermos descansar. Penso que a gerência devia prestar mais atenção a estes detalhes pois podem ser decisivos na hora de voltar a escolher o alojamento ou não.
