Spectacular drive to the hotel and then from the hotel over the mountains to Coimbre. Views were absolutely amazing. The hotel is fantastic. Loved every minute of our experience there.

Worth it for the view

This is a beautiful spot and hotel for those exploring the Parque Natural da Serra da Estrela. I gave it less of a rating for a couple of reasons. The food at dinner was not up to what I would have expected of a place like this, just ok. Breakfast was great however. I had a room with a turret and the space and view were amazing, but the washrooms needed a bit of work to make it a 4 or 5 star place.
Sandrine, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is located in a magnificent location with stunning views. The place is quiet; the staff is friendly and welcoming.

Breathe the fresh air

Stunning private location and venue. We didn’t get much views of the valley from our Turrett room but it was nice to have our own balcony. The AC in the room isn’t that efficient at cooling but other than that, everything was perfect

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely, clean, peaceful. And the staff were incredible - we left before breakfast, and they packed us fresh pastries to take with us. They met us at the counter with them at the crack of dawn. What a wonderful experience.

Tired hotel rooms .

Well located hotel and beautiful lobby area. Great staff . Valet parking which is helpful. Our room was extremely small, the towels were old and needed replacing , the bed comfy but pillows were not. I would say the hotel needs a refurb.

Short break

We enjoyed taking my dad to the mountains for his 90th birthday. He'd flown over them so many times to the algarve he wanted to see them up close. The hotel and the scenery didn't disappoint.

Hotel or hospital?

There was a strange feeling that we were in a hospital and not a hotel.
Karni, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Be prepared to eat on site, but the restaurant menu does not offer a lot of choices. bar is located inside the restaurant so it’s a bit awkward. The grounds could be beautiful but look neglected which is a shame. Water in the indoor pool was freezing!!
