"The room was very clean, breakfast is delicious and the staff is very friendly"

"The good points about the hotel were the breakfast, the staff, who were helpful and the rooms which were for the most part well maintained. We had several very positive interactions with the front desk and on the whole they met our needs. The location is pretty good and there is access to a sandy beach at low tide. Do bear in mind that the hotel is close to the port, so noise can be an issue if you room on the mountain side of the property. The wireless was extremely weak. As this was (partly)...

"Verk nice"

"I travel a lot to the area around Guimaraes, but I found this new hotel nestled up in the hills and it is super. I'd certainly recommend. I've stayed twice and the indoor pool (and sauna/ steam room) are excellent, and the outdoor pool and view of the mountains in the distance is idyllic. Good food menu and room service (same menu, not a smaller one like in many hotels). Will certainly stay again."

"Pas de parking"

"Beautiful hotel in an excellent location. The only issue is the lack of parking"

"Great hotel in the centre, staff a very friendly and helpful. Rooms are well decorated. Hotel is very beautiful inside and out. Good facilities with a modest gym, good sauna and steam room. Piano player at breakfast is a nice touch, creates a lovely atmosphere."

"Lovely hotel with that historic feel. Great views. Staff were very friendly. Nice walk into the area."

"I booked well in advance and was able to get a twin room with balcony for single use at a very good price. The view from the balcony was NOT picturesque, however it faced a side street it was very quiet.  I understand that rooms without balconies face the main road and traffic noise can be a concern.   There was no balcony furniture, so I couldn’t really sit out there unless I pulled the sizeable desk chair out.  The room was a good size and didn’t feel claustrophobic at all.  The bathroom was...

"Beautiful hotel with a historical feel. The room and service were also lovely. Excellent breakfast spread although it may pose problems for gluten free types. I highly recommend it as an interesting alternative to other 4 and 5 star hotels."

"El hotel está en grandes condiciones. Las habitaciones están bien, promedio. La alberca es hermosa y grande pero no tiene caldera por lo cual nadie la usa. Una pena. Los alimentos bastante promedio y el personal muy poco amable. Creo que por el Precio que se pagan hay mejores opciones en el centro del pueblo"

"This hotel is a little gem. As the name would suggest chocolate plays a major role in both the design of the rooms and the offerings at breakfast time. The rooms are large and well appointed whilst the breakfast, with or without chocolate, will set you up for the day. There is a small museum about chocolate manufacturing on site as well. I’d be happy to stay here again."
