United KingdomFor one who visits simply for the pleasure of it, Ponte de Lima is Portugal in a dream. Mercearia da Vila is in the centre of the old town, on the main pedestrian street, looking down past the church to the river, just a short stroll away. It is a B&B of the highest standard, pristine, with great attention to detail, a very warm welcome from the hosts, and a superb relaxed breakfast on the ground floor where the grocery store used to be. These are facts. But beyond that, our brief stay was indeed like a dream. Rather magical, perfect.

United KingdomWE were welcomed on a hot day with port, ice cold water and homemade biscuits while we were checked in. The room was beautiful with a wonderful view. The location is fantastic and so central. The breakfast was exceptional and the characterful breakfast room (which was once the shop) was full of interesting old items displayed in the old shop cabinets that had been retained. The staff were friendly and went out of their way to help. We will definitely be back and would highly recommend this hotel.

CanadaThere was nothing we didn't like about it Mercearia. The rooms were very clean and bright. Excellent choice of continental breakfast in one of the best dining areas we have ever seen. It was a dining room full of historic pieces placed behind glass cabinets. Spotlessly clean! Will definitely be returning!

AustraliaProperty is conveniently located in the historic center of the town and very close to the roman bridge, right on the Camino de Santiago. Rodriguez, the kind and polite host, will show you around and will tell you what makes the property so special. Everything else it was as described, all very clean, beds very comfortable and breakfast, excellent.

Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
