Monte da Formiga Hotels

"Amazing as Always "

"The room had all the items you need for our overnight stay to return home. The room was clean and very minimalist. Staff was wonderful and extremely helpful."

"Ive stayed there many times over a 26 year period. Its always been very good. Rooms are excellent, spacious, clean, missed the minibar being stocked but thats all. Comfortable beds, heating/air con great, lovely fluffy bath towels, great power shower. Breakfast is truly excellent buffet, English and Continental. Evening meal was part of a package arranged for my friends who were with me, and 2 nights it was frankly inedible. The restaurant relented and let them have the á la carte on the last night, but this is the reason for my 4star rating. Also Breakfast on Wednesday, 3 coach loads of Japanese tourists came in just for breakfast. Ive never seen so many Japanese outside of Japan. For guests, getting even a cup of coffee took 30 mins and forget getting a table. So this was disappointing too. But overall very good value and nice to see restaurant manager Luis still there after 29 years! "

"Incredible"

"The staff at the front desk were very pleasant. Our room was recently renovated as were all the rooms I believe. The breakfast was good and included fresh croissants. The parking spots were nice and wide and well lit. Overall we had a great experience and would book there again. "

"The beds were very uncomfortable "

"In this rather quite city this at first sight somewhat unimpressive set of buildings making up a villa from the 16th century I found a kind of calm that new hotels cannot give you. Charming rooms, a calming courtyard and a garden that feels like a park results in an enjoyable atmosphere. But you will not get services that larger, modern and more luxurious hotels can give, but I did not miss that one second. Likewise, breakfast had all you need, but not more, and was in an cellar built with arches built with bricks that at least looked roman to my untrained eyes. The area was quite in early March, but there were many smaller restaurants nearby, and a large outlet-mall at the outskirts of the city. After a longer vacation travelling around much of northern Portugal I was looking for a place to relax, and here found the perfect place!"

"The check in was tremendous. We arrived early ( early flight) and the staff made us feel welcome as we needed a rest. We were asleep by 11:30am! Weather was a little cool for enjoying the pool, but it looked inviting. We were served a glass of port before we retired that evening. And the complimentary breakfast was truly delicious! "

"Excellent concept and facilities. "
