The staff were amazing! Because we were pilgrims without a car, they took us with them to lunch. It was the best experience of my time in Portugal. Breaking bread with Portuguese doesnt get any better. Christianna gave us a tour of the hotel grounds. Had a great hamburger for dinner

Very helpful and kind staff. The surroundings are lovely, we took a stroll by the river just in front of the hotel, and were greeted with the sounds of birds, a very beautiful waterfall and a dam. The whole place is very quiet and cozy.

Pedro Portugal

Staff were helpful and friendly. The room was spacious and clean. Food was good.

The place is amazing and the facilities also. Definitely a place to return. The walk in the park by the river is beautiful and the hot water swimming pool is a delight, specially if you travel with kids.

Rui Portugal

staff is great and always available and interested in doing everything to make the stay a great experience, it was warm in the hotel, the room was very clean and in very good condition, the shower is great

Rita Portugal

We stayed in a Room with jacuzzi. Not the standard, but the one with a circular bathtub and hydromassage. It was lovely. Very high tech, with a screen to control lighting. Very clean, tidy and comfortable. Views are also quite pleasant. We don't hear any car around. Perfect to relax. People really cared about our stay.

Jpgbarbosa Portugal

Everything, less the swimming pool, interior only, very hot for summer. But should be great in winter.
