Beautiful hotel at the centre of Braga. Lovely room, excellent breakfast. BUT the hotel advertises a spa but has only a swimming pool and massage facilities. Not a spa.
We enjoyed our stay. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The staff was helpful and friendly. Breakfast had good variety of food. Highly recommend this property.
Beautiful hotel located in a historic renovated building in the heart of the historic center of Braga. Excellent service in all areas (front desk, bar, breakfast, housekeeping and spa). Highly recommend for couples or families.
We loved this hotel! It is so unique, being a 500 year old building, once a hospital and so many fascinating parts preserved, it's like walking around a museum! Breakfast was fantastic, staff were friendly and helpful and the pool was lovely.
Wonderful hotel! Very family friendly with a great pool and play area for families with kids. The breakfast buffet is lovely with lots of delicious options. The staff is outstanding. Very helpful and kind. Beautiful old building with lots of charm and history. I highly recommend.
Stayed here for 3 nights with my family of 5 kids age 10, 9, 7). We stayed in 2 rooms next to each other as there were no adjoining rooms available. The hotel was centrally located close to shopping and many restaurants all within walking distance. The rooms were very spacious and the exterior of the hotel was beautiful. The kids enjoyed the pool and the buffet breakfast was convenient. Braga was a beautiful city, would definitely stay here again.
Excellent front desk staff, very helpful land friendly. Big room, comfortable, breakfast was outstanding. Plenty of free parking.

Beautiful, historic hotel, tastefully modernized. Location is great for walking around the centro. Rooms are spacious, clean, and comfortable. The inclusive breakfast is very good.
This property is so amazing. The staff was fantastic. Thanks to Thais and Barbara for their service at the front desk. They were outstanding. Our housekeeper was also quite helpful and provided excellent service.
Our room in the new section was large and very comfortable. Big spacious shower with separate water closet. Loved it. The hotel should invest in changing the carpet on the second floor hallway. Just getting off the elevator, the carpet is badly soiled and dated.
The breakfast was fantastic.
Excellent service and beautiful hotel! The restaurant was incredible - the service outstanding. Every staff member went out of their way to make everything perfect.
This is one of the best hotels in Braga with a spirit. The spa/pool section makes this hotel even better. We appreciate how the modern hotel has been incorporated in the mid-centuries walls. We will definitely return to this hotel the next time we visit Portugal.
