Pousada de Viana do Castelo

Excellent Pousada with wonderful views. Staff very friendly, room well equipped. Rooms at the front of the hotel have amazing views. Good buffet breakfast included. Restaurant was okay though not exceptional. Plenty of parking . Road up from town winding and cobbled but okay. Would stay again

Great room and very helpful staff. Brought us a fan to the room because the AC was turned off for the winter. The view from the room was breathtaking. Really comfy feeling at the property and cool things to see just a short hike or funicular away. The breakfasts were nice, rooms clean and comfy bedding. Would definitely go back to visit and stay. Just a chill place... especially in the off-season.

IT WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF OURTRIP IN TERMS OF HOTEL the location is unique, with fab. views. the staff very polished, we had cookies, grapes and a small bottle of tawny port waiting when we arrived at 5 pm and sipped peacefully on our terrace with 2 chairs and small table, overlooking Vieana..\\ dinner was very good... not excellent.. but chef came around and talked to us.... a must at least for a nite..

We had a very disappointing dinner experience. When asked how the pork was cooked the waiter did not recommend the pork ' because customers did not like it". He proceeded to recommend the hake. When it arrived it was very unpleasant smothered with hollandaise sause. It appeased that the waiter was instructed to sell the hake because a number of other guests were being served the same. Not nice to eat either. When my partner cammented on the prawns as being unpalatable they took them away and offered another portion which she said no to. Then they refused to serve us with the exeption of a young waiter whe was directed to deal with us. When the bill came the prawns were still on the bill! They subsequently took them off. Very limited meal options and terrible experience.

Beautiful property in lovely setting.
