Brilliant hotel set in the ramparts of the former fort with commanding views of river and bordering mountains.

Terry, United Kingdom

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.

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.

Alfredas, Lithuania

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.

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.

The dinner at the hotel restaurant was one of the worst in our lifetime - entirely the chef’s fault, the service wasn’t bad.
