Tired hotel rooms .
Well located hotel and beautiful lobby area. Great staff . Valet parking which is helpful. Our room was extremely small, the towels were old and needed replacing , the bed comfy but pillows were not. I would say the hotel needs a refurb.

Short break
We enjoyed taking my dad to the mountains for his 90th birthday. He'd flown over them so many times to the algarve he wanted to see them up close. The hotel and the scenery didn't disappoint.

Hotel or hospital?
There was a strange feeling that we were in a hospital and not a hotel.
Karni, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Be prepared to eat on site, but the restaurant menu does not offer a lot of choices. bar is located inside the restaurant so it’s a bit awkward. The grounds could be beautiful but look neglected which is a shame. Water in the indoor pool was freezing!!

Beautiful old building in amazing locality. The staff not friendly enough. The breakfast the most disappointing. Hard croissants, fruit past it’s peak and coffee machines that need attention.

Um bom hotel, mas com algumas ressalvas.
É um bom hotel, mas pensando-se num Pestana, algumas coisas deixaram a desejar. Passamos uma noite, de terça para quarta-feira em pleno Carnaval. O hotel estava cheio, com muitas famílias com crianças porque o hotel estava oferecendo um pequeno baile. Acho que, por conta disso, o jantar foi em buffet e não a "la carte" e esse foi o maior problema da nossa estadia. A comida não estava boa, não estava apresentável e as várias sobremesas estavam ruins, sem gosto, feitas sem cuidado. O ponto alto do nosso jantar ficou por conta do garçom Tuma, um profissional muito simpático, sorridente e eficiente. Para compensar o péssimo jantar, o café da manhã foi maravilhoso, com muitas opções gostosas de bebidas, pães, frios e etc... Tudo o que um excelente café da manhã deve ter! Esse sim estava no nível de um Pestana! Outro problema que tivemos foi a falta de profissionais no bar após jantar. Só havia um funcionário para servir muitas mesas e pessoas e acabamos por ficar sem licor e café. Os quartos e banheiros são bons e espaçosos. Tudo estava muito limpo e arrumado. Os funcionários foram gentis e educados. O hotel é muito bonito, foi um sanatório no passado, se encontra numa região linda com paisagens bucólicas e muito próximo da torre da Serra da Estrela. A área do spa é muito boa, com uma piscina aquecida bem grande e com água bem quente. Não deixaria de recomendar este hotel, mas também não deixaria de fazer algumas ressalvas.

Checkin horrível
Checkin foi horrível. Porque o hotel não tinha a reserva e apesar do Hotéis.com enviar novamente, ficamos na recepção por mais de 1 hora e a recepcionista respondia só frases automáticas. Não fez nada para ajudar. Essa 1a impressão foi horrível. No restante as acomodações do hotel são excelentes e o café da manhã maravilhoso.
