Ottima posizione panoramica con vista sulla citta e sul Sado. Anche se ristrutturata conserva un grande fascino. Bellissimo giardino con piscina non sfruttato purtroppo per il periodo. Belli tutti gli ambienti e il patio. Ottima colazione. Possibilita' di visitare il Museo Archeologico nella cripta.

This hotel was a historic property dating back to the 14th century. Walking the cloisters and hallways was magical. Don’t miss the museum in the crypt below the hotel. So much history, dating back to the Bronze Age. I have never stayed in such an amazing property. Magnificent!

3rd visit to this lovely location, with the Hotel perched on the top of a hill overlooking spectacular views of rice fields. This is a very old building with a lovely history which is so evident everywhere on its grounds, in and outside of the building. The rooms are of a good size and the beds are very comfortable. Cleanliness is a priority as is staff friendliness. Overall, the experience is so positive and is a great get away or a stop on your journey through Portugal, at a very fair price.

The employees were all so friendly, the pool area was fantastic and well kept, the room and views were unreal.
