Viseu
17 km from Mangualde Live Artificial Beach in Viseu, Viseu Ryokan - Hospedaria Japonesa & SPA offers accommodation with access to a hot tub, spa facilities and wellness packages. There is a private entrance at the ryokan for the convenience of those who stay. The accommodation provides a sauna, free WiFi throughout the property and family rooms. Set deep within the winding streets of the beautiful, ancient city of Viseu, this Ryokan is a cosy little gem dedicated to Japanese hospitality. After a long drive in torrential rain we were welcomed by Tania with hot ginger and lemon tea as we checked in from the comfort of the sofa. Swapping wet shoes for slippers in true Japanese style, we we're given the full tour and then guided to room 5 (there is no room 4!). The room itself was bright, warm and cosy, with the tatami mats and yukata gowns providing that extra level of comfort for a minimal but intimate aesthetic. My wife and I sat crosslegged across the table and drank more tea. Later we had a couple of Japanese beers from the fridge before heading out. The next day, after rainy explorations in the city, we came "home" to the Viseu Ryokan and spent a solid 30 minutes de-stressing in the sauna. We ate gyoza and ramen in the communal kitchen for dinner, served with grace and panache by the whole team. More Japanese beer and a glass of Nikka rounded off a relaxing night. Saki is also available for those who don't like Japanese whisky! Breakfast had everything you could want, and with free tea and coffee all day—a welcome refreshment not always provided by other hotels. I only have good things to say about the Viseu Ryokan—the Japanese heart of Viseu that's truly one of the most comfortable places I've ever stayed.

Such a jewel!!! I loved the concept and execution, it really feels you are in Ryokan in Japan. Everything is super clean, beds are very comfy, we ordered evening meal and it was just magical. Service and curtesy of staff is what really make this place special. you feel welcome and at home. Location is also top. Highly recommend
Really friendly and helpful staff, traditional breakfast and central location for local restaurants. Will definitely stay again and would recommend to others. Thank you to the staff for a lovely stay.
Nice concept, no nonsense room. Very friendly staff and nice terrace. Location is amazing.
Rooms are extremely clean and the woman at the front desk is very friendly. The view of the river is nice and the hot spring is wonderful.
Right in the center of town and easy to find. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The building mix of traditional Portuguese and Japanese gives the place a cozy and relaxing atmosphere. The bed was comfortable and the "magic" toilet was really fun! Both the jacuzzi and sauna followed by breakfast (kasutera included) was an amazing way of starting the day. The traditional breakfast was also really good and worth trying.
Our stay at Viseu Ryokan could not have been better! It is a unique, serene experience, in a very clean, modern, small hotel, installed in a historic building. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and quick to respond with help. We took advantage of the spa experience and with rainy days it was a treat to take a sauna or schedule a massage, in between walks through the historic center of Viseu. Breakfast was delicious, and tea is readily available. We grew to feel at home at the hotel and in Viseu.
a non-nonsense hotel where everything was designed and is attended for in an intelligent manner towards the satisfaction of clients. I particularly liked the fact that air in the rooms is renewed with air from the exterior notwithstanding the extra-cost to the hotel because of the cold outside temperature. to our surprise the restaurant was excellent.
This is a no-nonsense hotel, everything just works. The staff is nice, the wifi is good, the beds are big and comfy, the breakfast is not too varied but more than adequate (and served until 11AM!). I could say there's nothing spectacular but, really, having no single dislike I can mention, makes it spectacular. Also, it's a 4 star, so, spectacular is not a requirement.
