The staff is super nice and friendly. The room and bed are much bigger than I expected. Everything was superb.

Ran China

Fantastic 17th century bed and breakfast next to the amazing 14th century cathedral, all within the old walled Centro Historica area of the city of Guarda. Beautiful room with typical Portuguese furniture, super comfy bed, gorgeous linens and a bathtub! The owner Elena and her staff are exceptional and provided extra special care while I had a lousy cold. Drop back in time and stay at this magical location.

Sharon Portugal

Jadwiga United States of America

Mdlb United States of America

The host and staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The rooms are very comfortable and quiet and clean as were the common areas. This place is a real gem. Can't beat the location in the heart of the historic city. Walking distance to several good restaurants. The breakfast was delicious. Great value.

William United States of America

Peter United Kingdom

Breakfast was fine in the tea shop next door. Our only mistake was thinking 'English Tea Shop' means have an English cup of tea which was not like we have at home. Our own fault!

Martin United Kingdom
