This hotel is in a castle and is simply marvellous - beautiful interior, enormous room, great view of the town, great location, lovely staff, incredible breakfast, free parking at the hotel. We had a great stay and will return!
GermanyWe liked the location as well as the old furniture and paintings in the castle.
PortugalOne of the nicest stays we have had in a long time ( and we travel a lot ) and the nicest Pousada we have ever stayed in - felt very privileged to be able to spend the night in such a prestigious place for what was a very reasonable price. Staff were without exception brilliant, nothing too much for them with a smile on their faces. Lovely and warm everywhere in the Pousada on a very cold windy day outside. Pity the restaurant was closed because of shortage of kitchen staff. Breakfast was very generous and tasty. Followed their recommendation to dine in the old prison restaurant next door, which was exceptionally good.

United StatesExcellent breakfasts with large selection. Excellent dinners too with refined and formal service. We liked the location for exploring the surrounding countryside. Beautiful sunset views. Lovely courtyard, gardens and pool (although too cool when we were there in September to swim).
