Beautiful hotel in rural setting. Owner Miguel reserved our Acoura 516 bridge tickets as our international charge card was not accepted. The continental buffet breakfast was delicious and freshly served. We enjoyed the fireplace in the evening which Miguel started each evening. If we return to the area to hike we will definitely stay here again. It was impressively clean and staff (his family :) friendly.

We would have liked a more powerful shower head rather than a “wand” in the shower. Also, hotter water would be great after a long day of hiking.

Lovely green area around the hotel with swimming pool. Very quiet area. Wonderful breakfast with lots of fresh fruit. Very clean and welcoming. My only complaint would be that the mattress was very in comfortable (feeling the springs) it is definitely time for a new one.

Informação errada sobre Hotel, nomeadamente a existência de restaurante o que não se verificou. Ginásio com 3 máquinas, as 3 claramente inoperacionais ou danificadas. Quarto sem secador de cabelo, luz de entrada a não funcionar, televisão a falhar , foi possível verificar o cabo de TV partido. Pequeno almoço muito bom e delicioso, simpatia do staff muito bom, local bem calmo .

Destaco la tranquilidad y la belleza de las vistas. Un buffet del desayuno estupendo y una piscina que en los días de calor nos vino de maravilla. El detalle a la salida de una caja de dulces típicos fue el remate ideal de una estancia inolvidable. Desde ahí hicimos la ruta por los Pasadizos del Paiva y el Puente Colgante 516.
