Most charming and perfect hotel
Posted 22 Jan 2024 on HotelsThis is one of the most wonderful hotels I’ve ever stayed at. It’s so charming! The restaurant is amazing. The service in both the hotel and the restaurant is way above expectations. Our room was perfect and overlooked the river. Wish we could have stayed longer!

I cannot say enough how much we enjoyed our stay here. With two adults and two teenagers, things can get a bit cramped and when we arrived, the gentleman who received us, upon seeing how big our kids are and how difficult it might be for them to comfortably sleep in the loft of the room we'd reserved, offered us at no extra charge a much bigger room with two bedrooms and a lovely balcony overlooking the Rio Lis. I was excited to see whether this hotel lived up to the charming photos online, and I can say with no hesitation it met and far exceeded my already high hopes. Of all the places we stayed in Lisbon and Porto throughout our trip, we all agreed this hotel (and its gorgeous restaurant below) were our favorite.

Beautiful boutique hotel hideaway
Posted 18 Aug 2021 on HotelsAbsolutely stunning location and beautiful grounds and gardens. Our room was charming and lovingly decorated. The absolute stand-out was the restaurant. Sensational dinner and packed with locals, so book a table outside, under the walnut tree before other guests take the best seats. Lovely swimming pool.

More of a 3-star hotel
Posted 17 Sep 2018
Pros: The room was clean.
Cons: Availability of simple amenities e.g. kettle, or be allowed to enter kitchen to get hot water.
Location: Quite far from points of interest. Need to drive on mountain roads for a while to get to this hotel.
The room was clean.
However, we could not be provided with our own kettle, I could only request hot water once when there was someone at reception but usually this was closed in the evening. The wallpaper in the room was coming off.
The gate had to be opened manually if you wanted to park your car inside, and on separate occasions both my mother and I had cut the skin on the back of our hands when pulling up the lock of the gate as it was rusty and jammed.
One of the staff did not seem very friendly or welcoming, but another was very nice.

Very pretty hotel with an exceptional restaurant, and delicious breakfast.
Bed was not comfortable, and we needed to open the gate by hand to park the car.

A lot of form, but lacked on the function
Posted 18 Nov 2017 on HotelsThis hotel is very nicely appointed. It is clean and modern and based on previous reviews I was expecting a nice stay...and it wasnt bad. But neither was it good. The two most important things for me is the bed (for sleep quality) and the bathroom (who doesnt like a good shower or bath while travelling?). In both of these things this hotel failed, which is such a shame, because they had put a lot of obvious effort into so many other things. The bed was firm to the point of hard and uncomfortable - I had to turn many times in the night because my ribs or shoulders ached from the hard mattress (and I have a firm mattress at home). There were two pillows - one a decorative one and another plain. Since I am happy with only one pillow, and the plain one was very thin, I put the plain one aside and used the thick decorative one. But during the night it was clearly too fat and my neck ached so I had to swap - to the pillow that was about as thin as a wafer biscuit. We got up at 7am and my partner opted for the first shower. Half way through, the water turned cold (really cold, and this is November). So I was not going there to have a freezing shower. This is the last thing you expect or want on a trip and was annoying. The final annoying thing was, we wanted to leave by 7:30am but breakfast only started at 8am, with no provisions for anything earlier. So I left this hotel a bit tired, dirty and hungry. They spent so much time, effort and money but missed the important things.
