Really nice, quiet and family friendly hotel. However, the restaurant service is very slow particularly when there are other events at the hotel. This is for me the only negative.

Very peaceful and stunning architecture old/ new
Beutiful setting, loved the lit up bridge over to the entrance. Room spacious boutique styling nod to Roma times. We had a wonderful breakfast which due to covid not buffet but pre ordered what you would like from list, in a lovly modern restaurant with views, The bar again modern styling but fitting in its original structure. Infoor Pool need a pool cap which are available at reception. Lovely pool due covid jacuzzi section and saunas were not available. But didbt mind nust happy to have the pool to myself. Would definitely stay again, there are go karts bikes and tandem bike can hire. And the resturant was closed but we walked to the penela centre for tea. Theres also a steak restaurant near there too.

Hotel muito bonito, mas espaços exteriores muito mal aproveitados, piscina exterior muito pequena num espaço muito grande com possibilidade de um piscina bem maior, num espaço cheio de relva á volta, mal tratada pois não é indicada para estender a toalha, desconfortável para andar descalço sujeito a magoar os pés. Staff extremamente simpático e profissional numa gestão que deixa a desejar. Marca-mos jantar para as 21h15 e só nos sentaram às 22h, desculpa da atualidade o COVID, serve para tudo agora. Mas acaba-mos por ser bem servidos pela excelente equipa que serve na restauração, parabéns a eles. Não tenciono voltar.

We were the last guests before the hotel closed due to the coronavirus situation. They looked after us right to the end and were very kind, attentive, and professional. I can't rate this hotel and the staff and management highly enough. I hope that once all this is over they will continue to operate as a first class, comfortable and friendly hotel. Thank you.

The staff are very helpful and friendly. The room is comfortable. The best thing is the breakfast buffet which is fantastic. The food in the restaurant is also very good, but the menu doesn't change so the choice becomes limited.
