Great location, historic building. A sense of grandeur

Charles United Kingdom

Fabulous Pousada. Over the years we have stayed at many throughout Portugal. This one and the one right on the river in Porto are definitely the best. We've stayed here 5 times now and will certainly be coming back many more times.

Gary United Kingdom

We loved the old-fashioned rooms. Saving Portugal's old "pousadas" is a great thing to the country's history.

Jl France

This was a stay to be remembered The rich history of the place and the special ambiance play a major part in this experience. Yet, although we are talking about an antique building, all its facilities are modern and offer the best of service. Very good breakfast, nice snack as an indoor option at night. Comfortable room with a breathtaking view from the window. Very nice and attentive staff taking care of all your needs

Jacob Israel

The location on top of a fortfied hill in the town was great. The garden and swimming pool surrounded by castle walls were lovely. The public rooms were very appealing. Breakfast and evening meals were well handled by the excellent staff during these difficult Covid times.

Leigh United Kingdom
