Alter do Chao Hotels

"We had a wonderful three nights in the mountain facing rooms. Added bonus of being able to watch the sun rise from the room. Friendly staff provided an excellent meal on the first evening. Breakfast choices were many and varied; we certainly set off each day well filled. The village itself was great for wandering around and the castle of course was the highlight. Slightly scared at first at the narrow entrance into the village in our hire car, but it's actually OK. Plenty of room. Parking easy outside. We found plenty to do in the area - could have stayed for longer. Thank you!"

"Very nice and thoughtful staff, good breakfast, quiet area, clean room. "

"This hotel is a gem if you want a slow weekend in the country. This area is stunning. The hotel is so charming, the hotel is situated right in the middle of the horse stud in beautiful historic buildings. There are birds everywhere so just lovely place to relax and listen to them. Rooms were lovely. I came with two young children and the indoor pool is the best we’ve been to. The pool was a perfect temperature and the room was heated so quite relaxing. I took riding lessons which was a highlight. Every staff member was so friendly and kind. We stayed on the property almost the entire trip but did go to marvao castle which is spectacular and a can’t miss. "

"Really unique accommodation in an old castle village! Driving in is something else, with all those narrow cobblestone laneways. Staff were super friendly. Our room was quite small, but had everything we needed. "

"Good hôtel but need a serious TLC.witch is Real shame. Great staff,this could be a fabulous placé if looked after."

"I highly recommend a stay at this historic property in Marvão. It has an old world charm and the amenities are excellent. The rooms are clean and comfortable, brightly lit, the breakfast superb and the view from the dining room is amazing. The staff were friendly and most helpful. "

"Everything was excellent. The rooms are large, clean and well furnished. The dining room is really gorgeous inside and out. The breakfast in the morning is a great. And the private parking and back was very helpful. All topped off with excellent customer service. We highly recommend. "

"Clean, friendly, room ok with lovely balcony and view. No lift Dinner ok for me.(Pork chops) not for my wife . Breakfast ok but coffee awful. I had fresh fruit, yogor, toast, juice and tea. Hot was scrambled egg (it ran out( and tiny sausages. No vale la pena. Super lady and young M an at reception and bar."
