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.

The room was large, but the carpet throughout the entire hotel was filthy. I don’t know if it was dirt or water damage, but it needs to be replaced. I didn’t dare walk barefoot in our room as it was very filthy. Restaurant at the hotel was good And so was the service at all aspects of the hotel.

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.

The building is amazing and in the center of the city. The only downside, parking is not available for all guests. It is dependent in whether or not there is a space available in the garage when you arrive /ask. Otherwise, you will have to pay for street parking or a nearby private garage (about 25 euros / day)
