Location and the staff were great. Welcoming and relaxing environment.

Quite different with a lot of books everywhere. Staff was very friendly and helpful, room is nice and breakfast is excellent. On one of the Santiago de Compostela trail! You will see the shells on the street.

Very good room, very good breakfatst, superb location, very friendly staff

excellently located in the historic center of Guimaraes.

Right in the centre, close to all the sites and restaurants. Breakfast excellent and in lovely location over looking the square. Friendly staff, comfortable bed. Great value for money Can't fault it.

Location: excellent. Breakfast: was very very good. Selection of fruit, cereals, yoghurts, cooked breakfast, breads, jams, etc was much more than expected. Room: was a good size, bed very comfortable, bathroom was well appointed - everything was spotless. Although the hotel is in the centre of a popular area we did not hear any noise inside. Staff were very helpful, pleasant, and went out of their way to help us. eg online booking of seats on airport bus, taxis etc.

The location of the hotel is absolutely amazing. Right in the middle of the old town. Hotel makes you feel like you are part of the town. Wonderful in every way.

The property was perfect. A lovely old building in the square. The room was stunning with the view over the square and to the church. The shuttered windows and small balcony was delightful. The room was huge and very tastefully decorated. The breakfast was delicious and we enjoyed people watching sat on the square as we ate our breakfast. The staff were very friendly and helpful. A place like this anywhere else in Europe would cost a lot more money! Heaven!

excellent location in historic place and nice modern interior nicely integrated in historic house . you don t expect that from the outside which is nice as well but very different - really well done. enjoyed specifically service and cleanness. special thanks to the receptionist which guided me to the great parking spot - very comfortable , secured 100m away from the hotel 👍 and many hotels can learn that you should not charge a second room while offering a parking spot ….

Everything is just ex excellent: welcoming, friendly and forthcoming staff, located in the heart of this beautiful city, great rooms, comfortable beds and super breakfast.
