The property is fully renovated and in great condition. Location is excellent since it is right downtown. Public parking is covered and right next to the hotel. Breakfast buffet was quite good, except the coffee (Nespresso), but I am quite picky about my coffee.

Excellent stay. Location was convenient, quiet, room was very clean and the included breakfast had a good variety of options. There was no problem leaving bags in a locked area both before and after checkout. I've recommended for friends if they visit.

This place is unbelievably beautiful and wonderful. The hotel uses nautical flags instead of room numbers as a nod to the town’s history. The rooms are large, comfortable and tastefully decorated. The breakfast was a very good European style breakfast. What really makes this place is the staff. Albert checked us in and then gave us a brief history of the hotel and explained different sites around town. After walking around a bit, we promptly booked a second night. This will be my go to when coming to Viana do Castelo

Great location. Building and rooms were nice. Possible to book a sauna and steam room. Staff was helpful, with recommendations for town and also organising an early breakfast. Would stay here again

This was a delightful discovery. The description of the hotel's location didn't do it justice and the facilities were very good. The main challenge was accessing it via car, as the streets are very narrow, but once located, the parking was straightforward. It is a good value place and well worth checking out in this lovely Portuguese costal town.

The people that were at the front desk were very nice! The beds were clean! They should replace the Shower and toilet doors with ones that are not see-through.It was in a good location.
