United KingdomThe location of this property could not be better situated and the building itself is so interesting, just how we had hoped it would be.
United KingdomThe building - a former nunnery - is very impressive, with marble staircases, atmospheric cloisters, frescoes on the walls and old furniture and decorative objects everywhere. It was like staying in a museum! The breakfast room is lovely and the selection of food was good, with homemade yoghurt and fresh rolls and pastries. The location, right in the centre of Vila Vicosa and next to the palace, is good for exploring and for local restaurants.
United KingdomGreat breakfast buffet. The location was excellent. The ambiance and character was special. I loved having lunch ( pork cheeks yum) overlooking the courtyard.
