    Breakfast is great!

    No enough running water in the bathroom! The reception promised an upgrade and the room was not good: badly conserved, dark, no enough water, not clean enough. After 19 years I decided to go back to this place which I found wonderful and it is not anymore! So disappointing!

    9AndréPosted on: 10-6-2025

    We loved the cats outside. Omg so cute.

    The bathroom tap was “eco friendly”, which really just means you’ll take 20 years to wash your face and end up using the same amount of water anyway.

    10NancyPosted on: 8-25-2025

    History, clean, the tower, staff was incredibly helpful and kind. Excellent food in the restaurant.

    The pool was a little noisy w/many children.

    9DanielPosted on: 7-13-2025

    Ruben was a fantastic host, the location is superb and the history of this lovely palace cannot be replicated. The restaurant was outstanding.

    We had an issue with aircon but the Ruben made it right. It’s an old castle so some issues maybe hard to avoid. Breakfast staff aren’t the most pleasant.

    10JuliaPosted on: 6-23-2025

    It was such a lovely hotel- much like a museum with so many beautiful Portuguese antiques and works of art. I made a mistake w/ the booking and not only did they accommodate my mistake, they gave us a bonus. The staff was wonderful.

    Nothing- a great experience all around

    9MikaelaPosted on: 5-24-2025

    Had a great stay here! We were on our honeymoon and they surprised us with a little congratulations wine/strawberries that was lovely. Breakfast was great and they also packed us a breakfast lunchbox for the morning we had to leave early.

    10JanicePosted on: 5-9-2025

    Charming, grand historic property !Gracious and helpful staff.

    9KimberlyPosted on: 5-7-2025

    Such an amazing experience staying in this castle and within the medieval city walls. Staff was kind, and breakfast was wonderful. Very clean and easy parking a plus!

    Air conditioner could have been a little cooler, but we tend to be warm natured.

    6DeborahPosted on: 4-17-2025

    Remote. Felt very dated , simply like an older hotel.had to drive to access any other restaurants etc so location not that great. Pleasantly surprised it wasn’t drafty however.

    10ArlenePosted on: 4-17-2025

    Wonderful staff, beautiful space, excellent location.

    8TomasPosted on: 3-22-2025

    Great rooms, great staff, great breakfast. A place with a thrilling history.

    The evening meal in the restaurant wasn't 100 %.

    10JuliaPosted on: 3-16-2025

    It was so unique, the history, the surroundings, the decor quite spectacular. The staff were extremely friendly and informative. The evening meal and breakfast were fantastic.

    There was nothing to be disappointed about.

    10MariaPosted on: 3-6-2025

    Exceeded my expectations. Absolutely beautiful, truly a castle. The rooms were beautiful and very clean. The property grounds were spectacular.

    8RonPosted on: 2-17-2025

    Breakfast was extensive and in a wonderful setting

    Bathroom shower was broken and sink needed cleaning

    7MarcelPosted on: 12-2-2024

    Good Location with parking, historic building. We were happy that the restaurant was open on sunday first of december, we were the only guests, food was good and restaurant staff very friendly.

    The bedcover was very thick, warm and heavy. The shower (in the bath) did not give steady warm water (from cold to very hot).We rolled up the slippery carpet on the wooden floor.

    10NoraPosted on: 11-23-2024

    Beautiful clean comfortable unique, lovely staff, easy parking

    Breakfast was a lavish spread but not all of the items were as fresh as the usual standard in Portugal

    7DianaPosted on: 11-10-2024

    The bed, the breakfast the location

    The very small bathroom, the useless shower. The difficulty in getting into the bath/ shower
