History, views, & rooms with balcony were amazing! Breakfast was good.

Michael United States of America

Beautiful views. it is a wonderfull place. The stuff very helpfull and friendly. They help us to find the company to transport our luggage during our walk.

Gabriela United States of America

The (out-of-date) Booking.com description warned us that the building might be affected by construction noise. Instead it was delightful peaceful. We upgraded our reservation to a high room with a fabulous view over the castle walls, across the River Minha to the medieval Spanish town on the other side of the border. Breakfast in the handsome dining area was remarkably large and various. The narrow streets and alleys surrounding the Pousada which dominates the fortress of Valenca were delightful to explore, especially when the weekend shoppers from Spain carried their booty back across the bridge on Sunday evening.
