Even though the hotel is old, it has what’s needed for a short stay. Every staff member is friendly and accommodating. We had an early bus and they opened the restaurant an hour earlier to ensure we ate before leaving.

Liked: Cleanliness
Unique picturesque setting at a fascinating historical pilgrimage site (World Heritage Site) on top of a mount with fantastic views away from bustling Braga. But very few options up there for coffee, tea or snacking and very expensive fine dining only. Staff sweet but largely unavailable. Quaint and charming for a very short stay. Caters mainly to large pilgrimage package tours, not to individual travellers.

The views are gourgeous as others had mentioned. Very convenient, next door to the Bom Jusus do Monte. The staff are very dedicated and caring. However the rooms are old, carpet are stained and air conditioner very noisy. It kept us awake at night. The room given to us was under the restaurant and the trash smelled very bad under the window. Our room was a odd number. Don't get any of these. Ask for even number rooms.

Unbeatable location, views, clean, spacious,cheap.

Happy with this place. The price was extremely reasonable considering you step out of the hotel on to the esplanade of the Bom Jesus complex and the views from the room and breakfast room are amazing. Some previous reviewers commented on the decor needing a facelift. Yeah, but then you’d have to pay a lot more. We had a huge triple room and it was clean and perfectly acceptable. Breakfast was plenty good enough. Didn’t use any other facilities so can’t comment.

Dit mag Max. 2 sterren hebben

Hotel is erg verouderd met veel achterstallig onderhoud. Kamer is anno 1960 met een gehaakt sprei uit oma’s tijd en versleten springveren matras. Badkamer, douchen in bad met gordijn. Restaurant is voldoende, als je dit hotel boekt ben je bijna verplicht hier te eten. Niets anders in de buurt in straal van 5km.

Retour au 20e siècle

J'ai réservé cet hôtel car il y avait une piscine (photos site @) sauf qu'il n'y a aucune piscine au sein de l'hôtel...publicité mensongère donc. Pas agréable de prendre son petit déjeuner sur des nappes tâchées et pleines de miettes, utilisées par les précédentes personnes. Le minimum serait qu'elles soient changées après chaque utilsation, c'est un 4 etoiles quand même ! Mais qui a eu son heure de gloire dans les années 80. Tout est vielliot...la classe à l'ancienne. Le frigo ne fonctionnait pas. La chambre accessible dès 16h30 n'était pas prête à notre arrivée à 18h30. Il a fallu que nous attendions dehors env 15min. En revanche, très bien placé mais places de parking rares devant l'hôtel car utilisées par les visiteurs du sanctuaire. Le parking de l'hôtel n'est pas privé...publicité mensongère également. Un hôtel Campanile 3* aujourd'hui fait mieux !
