This Pousada is a beautifully renovated old monastery, perfectly kept and maintained. The location is great, on top of a lovely town with quirky little roads full of character.

Someone in Pestana Hotels needs to take charge of updating beds, nearly always a disappointing experience across their group. FOOD. Hiding appalling amatuer lazy cooking behind the word ‘ Traditional is not on. Also charging gourmet restaurant prices for reheated cheap buffet food on fancy plates, this applies to every Pestana hotel we have stayed in Viana do Castelo having by far the worst restaurant experience we have encountered in Portugal.
Fabulous old castle in an excellent position overlooking town The staff were all extremely pleasant helpful and friendly

Steep walk down to town and back. Not a lot to see in town (but the information office was very helpful), but pleasant to amble round and along the river front.
Our second visit. Usual very high Pousada standard. Good location for views with excellent informative archaeological crypt displaying finds during restoration.

There aren’t many staff during the daytime. So no bar tender most of the time. It’s a steep walk into town, which we enjoyed, but some might not.
We his hotel has history going back to the Stone Age. The crypt is incredible and the architecture is stunning. The walk down to town is quite a workout, but there are loads of restaurants etc at the bottom of the hill.

The restaurant is shocking. My husband and I ate the same menu choices on the first night at the hotel which included a seafood stew (or cataplana). We were very unwell the next morning, and it wiped out 24 hours of a 72 hour trip to Portugal. Because not so many people use the restaurant, the fish or prawns must have been old. We were not only disappointed at this outcome, but also frankly annoyed that we had a third of our short break rubbed out by this issue.
Nice view from hotel
