Front desk service was excellent. Breakfast buffet was very good. Slightly hard to communicate with staff in restaurant, but all was clean and efficient. Restaurant was closed for dinner, which was a bit inconvenient, but the rest the front desk recommended had excellent food, and it was within a very short walking distance. So in the end we were extremely happy!

Quarto mais silencioso

Hotel muito agradável para relaxar com uma boa leitura num dos sofás aconchegantes das várias salas após um passeio pelo jardim com suas belas sombras. Limpeza dos quartos mas com muito barulho vindo da rua no uarto virado para tal. A cama do meu quarto era pouco confortável mas WC com ótima disposição. Nada como começar o dia na vila alentejana do que um PA variado com produtos regionais
