Madhuri Canada

Location was very cool. Staff was friendly and informative. The gentleman that checked us in made certain we knew about local events and things to see. Wonderful view out of our cute sun room. Loved the touches of time period accurate reproduction pieces throughout.

Peacepatiot United States of America

The hotel is very central and we made it base camp to visit Monsanto and other attractions, breakfast was a buffet and abundant. We ate at the hotel one night and food was typical Portuguese and good value for the money.

Johnprag Portugal

Friendly, helpful staff. Free indoor parking. Good location.

Richard Portugal

Friendly staff, clean facilities, and good food. For anyone like me that would prefer to take the stairs over an elevator, they have easy access stairs!

Justin Portugal

The unexpected upgrade to a roomy junior suite with a very comfortable bed. Free parking for my motorcycle. Good & inexpensive dinner at Restaurant Casa Santiago, in the same street of the hotel

Francisco Spain

Location was in the city centre. We were in room 305, quiet and away from the street and had a view of the castle from our balcony. Comfortable beds. Both toilet and bidet. Breakfast was buffet and had wide range of options and was included in price. Both lunch and dinner available in the hotel restaurant, good quality and reasonable prices. Free underground secure parking onsite. Wi-Fi good.

Peter Australia

Michael United Kingdom

Well appointed room with balcony. Clean and tidy with plenty of space. Hotel bar was a nice snug room, and the dinner in the restaurant was very good. Breakfast was also good, except the breakfast coffee. Friendly staff. Secure parking for motorcyles.
