to get started.

Excellent location. Staff spoke English and were very helpful- we were taking a train when we left and they alerted us to a possible strike which fortunately did not happen. The views from the common areas as well as our balcony room were spectacular.

Sherol, United States of America

The Pousada de Valenca is set in or next to the old ramparts at the top of town. Although new, it blends in well with its surroundings. There are many windows and wonderful views. The small town itself is very walk-able. After sight-seeing I enjoyed sitting by the main lounge windows and after dark by the fireplace. Almost 3 sides of the restaurant are also windows and the food was very good.

Patricia, United States of America

The bedding is gorgeous. The stay here was luxurious. The fixtures in the bathroom are beautiful. The view is unforgetable. Service is great. Breakfast a delight. We were enchanted with this wonderful hotel, in every way. The Wifi is spotty, is the only criticism.

Barbara, United States of America

This hotel was amazing! Everything was fantastic...including the dinner/service. Our group enjoyed absolutely every moment here.

Julie, United States of America

Great location, nice dining room and lounges with wonderful vistas. Very comfortable and friendly.

John, Australia

Pousadas are historical buildings that have been repurposed as hotels. This one is inside an ancient fortress overlooking Spain across the Minho river. Wonderful rooms, great views, super helpful staff and a great breakfast.

Edwin, United States of America

Breakfast was fantastic. The room was nice, clean and spacious and in a great location in the old part of the city along the Camino.

Kristine, United States of America

Location. Breakfast with a variety of fruits and juices

Mariannr, United States of America

Asked for room with balcony which proved excellent. Room 111 has small balcony with great views and a spacious room to sit and look at the river and Tui opposite - windy when we stayed there.

“Nice Pousada in a great spot overlooking the small town and countryside”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Standard Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
The Pousada de Valenca was hard to find. Apparently it is also called the Pousada de S. Teotonio which we didn't know (or forgot) so we ignored the signs for this latter name. Even after we finally called and got clear instructions our GPS still led us astray (as it did in other small towns as well). Parking appeared to be limited even in the off-season so I'm not sure what happens when it is crowded.
The Pousada de Valenca is set in or next to the old ramparts at the top of town. Although new, it blends in well with its surroundings. There are many windows and wonderful views. The small town itself is very walk-able. After sight-seeing I enjoyed sitting by the main lounge windows and after dark by the fireplace.

- • Standard Double or Twin Room

Hard to find in narrow streets and gateways but that is part of the attraction. Don't bring a wide car here. Parking near the hotel is a lottery.
Brilliant hotel set in the ramparts of the former fort with commanding views of river and bordering mountains.

The dinner at the hotel restaurant was one of the worst in our lifetime - entirely the chef’s fault, the service wasn’t bad.
Very good location of the hotel in the interesting and romantic city-fortress Valença, nice views across the river Minho to Spain. Good proximity to Mançao and Melgaço wine subregions. Smooth check-in and -out, nice hotel by itself.
