“Comfy, traditional stay in centre of Braga”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
Décor somewhat dated. Hard surface decoration in hall and stairs make sounds reverberate so people coming up the stairs late at knight, the maids knocking on doors in the morning sound very loud. The architect who designed the hotel should have thought about that. Note, there appear to be rooms along corridor with an extra door that might be shielded from this problem, ask for those! Parking was not available when we booked in after 1700, somehow available later in the evening by which time we parked in a nearby carpark which said it was a 24hr car-park thinking we would spend the 5Euros or so that we paid elsewhere in Portugal for 24 hour parking. Found out the next-day that the car park a total rip-off really set up for 1-2 hour shopping rather than what it advertised. Paid through the nose, so check it out carefully.
Super location, very central. Interior as expected, so comfortable and homely at its Portuguese traditional best with good, friendly service. Good room with comfy bed, en-suite bathroom with good shower.
