Lovely and comfortable in Viana do Castelo
This was a lovely spot in Viana do Castelo. I was welcomed very warmly. My room was cozy and warm. There were a lot of great details. Wine and sparkling water in the room. Breakfast in the kitchen. An absolutely delightful stay.

This is a great place to stay in Viana do Castelo! The hosts were great Sophia and Rami were very helpful and considerate. I wish I would have stayed longer! Directly in the historic center and walkable to many shops, restaurants and the waterfront! Can’t wait to return!

One of the best
We have stayed in numerous types of accommodation from luxury hotels to hostels in Spain and Portugal in preceding weeks. Dona Emelia was our favorite on many levels. A small scale guest house that has been a labour of love, with great architectural value and highly thoughtful amenities. They have guest comfort and experience at top of mind. Clean, central and very stylish and unique. Do yourself a favour and stay here.

4/10 Fair

first the pros: After spending nearly 1 1/2 hours completely lost and trying to find the guesthouse ( Google and Apple maps fail miserably) The proprietor Nuno graciously brought his bicycle down to meet us and guided us to the house. he then spent at least 30 to 45 minutes orienting us to the apartment explaining in technical detail all its many quirks and idiosyncrasies. The apartment is large but is festooned with shabby, mismatched "mid century modern" furnishings and appliances (ie the passé retro 50's & 60's look). This may appeal to certain "hipsters", but most older guests I believe prefer modern tasteful furnishings To our chagrin, the highly touted "free breakfast" was completely do it yourself with a loaf of stale cake, three raw eggs for two people, a couple of bananas, two small juices in a box… You get the picture. Of course you had to cook it yourself and proprietor kindly asked us to clean up the kitchen after we finished. So the question we asked each other was why bother? Most people on holiday prefer to leave drudgery of kitchen chores behind. On the plus side, the bed was comfortable and the entire unit was very quiet. We specifically asked for a quiet room prior to our arrival. A small space heater kept the living room area warm but it was quite cold in the bedroom. Apart from small retro "Edison" lights above the bed, there were no night lights in the apartment. It was a treacherous journey in the middle of the night to the bathroom!

Nice and chic
Very stylish and the hosts are extremely nice and have wonderful suggestions to make the most out of your visit. The location could not be better, right at the center of town. My room had a very nice terrace.

Made our stay in Viana DC!
Dona Emília Guesthouse was absolutely perfect down to every last touch, and exceeded our expectations. The hosts were wonderful - so helpful and welcoming, and they gave us great tips of what to see and where to eat (including an authentic fisherman's pub which you should try if you like seafood). The guesthouse has both the option of shared bathroom or private bathroom. We had a suite with private bathroom, which included the added touch of all natural soaps and shower gel (which we wish we had bought some to take home with us!). The room had high ceilings, lots of natural light, a small balcony, and plenty of room to relax in the room on a couch. The communal areas are what really adds the homely and relaxed feel. We sat in the large sunny lounge area and listened to records on the record player and had drinks. The breakfast is do it yourself, which we preferred as we were able to make our own eggs/fruit/coffee and use only what we needed. There has been a lot of care and attention put into this guesthouse, so if you're looking for a relaxed and homely feel, then this is a true gem.

Guesthouse parfaitement située mais atypique
Guesthouse dotée d'une parfaite situation en centre ville. Belle maison et chambre spacieuse. Personnel aimable et serviable. Chambre meublée de bric et de broc avec des meubles chinés, originaux mais peu pratiques. Salle de bain propre mais curieusement équipée d'une douche à rideau désuet. Petit déjeuner correct, organisation et matériel nécessitant assistance. Tarif élevé pour ce niveau de prestation.

Quem vê a cara não vê o coração
Incrível, tive dificuldades em encontrar a Casa de Hóspedes por causa de obras nas ruas . A gestora Sofia foi muito acolhedora, mostrando todo o funcionamento. Ótimas instalações, muito conforto e silêncio. Tive o privilégio de ser convidado a ocupar uma suíte no lugar do quarto reservado em cortesia. Gostei muito da estadia.

Alojamiento perfecto. Un 10
El alojamiento es perfecto. Está impecablemente limpio y es precioso, tanto la habitación como las zonas comunes están decoradas con mucho gusto. Está en pleno centro pero puedes descargar el coche en la puerta y hay aparcamiento gratuito cerca. La habitación (Praza suite) es muy cómoda y bonita, con un pequeño balcón con una mesita ideal para sentarse y disfrutar de las vistas, tanto de día como de noche, de la plaza más bonita de Viana. Merece la pena pagar por la pequeña diferencia de precio que hay con las otras habitaciones. Buena señal wifi. Tiene un pequeño inconveniente y es la cortina en la ducha. El desayuno te lo preparas tú con productos que te dejan cada día en una amplia zona de cocina a disposición de los huéspedes y te lo puedes tomar en la habitación o en un salón muy agradable y de nuevo con vistas increíbles. En resumen un 10.
