loved the outdoor bar area in courtyard

a cosy outdoor bar on the territory and a lovely and friendly dog named goonga

some tea bags please especially if you don t have morning coffee/tea available in the snack bar area

there's a little wooden building in the car park that operates as a well-stocked bar in the evening, and offers excellent coffee in the morning

the private on site parking a plus

the hotel is located in a very calm place, next to the river, close to two restaurants and a bar to have a drink in the evening (there's only one bar in this place) (-) the other issue was the noise coming from the fridge or mini bar that didn't let me sleep (-) bar poor

staff of restaurant and bar sometime is slow but this classic of portugal

the architecture to the decor of all the spaces, especially the common areas - swimming pool and bar ; restaurante; terrace , all was a delight

kayaks, get a tour of the facility and do a wine tasting, shop at the store, have a drink at the bar and most important, just relax

a glass of your super tn vallado and a few almonds from the honor bar was the perfect solution before a sound sleep in our nicely appointed rooms

poor food selection on bar menu

the prices for a beer and other drinks at the bar were horrendous, bar service shocking

there are snacks available in the bar - superb and the breakfast buffet was second to none

the bar food was overpriced.

the only down side to the hotel is that the common areas are very small and the bar is not properly isolated which means on a cold december night it was not very comfortable to be

the bar area was also really good with lots of tasty pastry and food options wich were cheaper than
