We had a very nice stay at this hotel in the mountains. There were some nice (though not easy) walks nearby me the hotel felt much like a wellness retreat. We opted for 1/2 board (breakfast dinner) since there were not a lot of spots nearby and the driving made me a bit nervous. The menu had good selection and I appreciated seeing wines on the menu from their Duoro vineyard location.

Lovely hotel. Fabulous location.
Gorgeous hotel in stunning surroundings in the Sera Estrela mountains. Lovely, really helpful staff, comfortable room with stunning view of the mountains and the pool. We only stayed one night en route to Porto so were unable use all the hotel's facilities but it was so nice we almost decided to rearrange our holiday to stay for extra nights.

Can’t beat the location
Beautiful hotel in amazing surroundings. Serra de Estrela is absolutely gorgeous! Would love to go back. Their jacuzzi was out of order and their spa pool has only one waterfall working, hence the 4 stars on the condition. Breakfast is quite good. One of our dinners was superb, the second dinner was so so. Service was nice. All in all I would consider staying there again. You can’t beat the location.

Our stay here was perfect. It felt like we were in a rain forest and close to nature. The hotel was new and very clean. The staff were very friendly. We had some rain during our stay so we were able to enjoy the spa, suna, and gym. The village has many dining options, but it would be helpful to have a rental car.

Beautiful property near Belmonte but unless you are going there on your way elsewhere this is not near anything else really. It's more of a destination resort. Lovely, dining was good, breakfast excellent but high in the hills. We stayed one night between Evora and Duoro. Would stay again, but maybe longer to enjoy the resort.

Très bel hôtel et personnel accueillant
L’hôtel est très beau dans son ensemble. Le monsieur qui nous a accueillis à la réception était chaleureux et accueillant. Nos 2 chambres étaient spacieuses, propres et fonctionnelles. La piscine extérieure est dans un très beau cadre, vue sur la montagne. Nous avons mangé un soir au buffet (beaucoup de choix). Le deuxième soir, nous avons mangé à Queijaria Manteigas où nous avons été très bien reçus. Le petit déjeuner de l’hôtel est sous forme de buffet. La vue depuis la terrasse du restaurant de l’hôtel est incroyable. Nous tenons à souligner la gentillesse de tout le personnel. Nous sommes très satisfaits de notre séjour. Merci à tous

un fin de semana largo de relax
Un excelente espacio para relajar y hacer senderismo. Ten en cuenta que en temporada vacacional hay muchas familias con niños y bebés (en la piscina). A nosotros no nos ha molestado para nada y ellos lo disfrutan a tope. El restaurante es bueno pero el servicio a la carta se mezcla con el bufet. Como el restaurante estaba bastante lleno, el servicio es algo más lento. El desayuno es espectacular.
