The staff is really friendly and they make you feel at home The contrast between old and new is amazing, the rooms are cozy and modern, and they preserved some old sections of the house, making it feel like a museum

Nothing

Being surprised

Stayed in August 2023

Genuinely trying to think of something. Nothing comes to mind.

Everything is amazing. The house itself, the rooms (beautifully designed), the terrace, the breakfast (those toasts with that delicious Casal de Palácios olive oil are something to die for)… Probably the best places I’ve stayed in years. Definitely going back when traveling to that region again.

The location was a little further than we expected, but it was a lovely place. The breakfast was amazing. Our host shared his restoration of the family property. He was able to make reservation for dinner near by where we had a fantastic meal. Would love to return.

The staff was very helping and gave me some advice about restaurants in the area, the breakfast was very nice and had plenty of choice, 15 minutes away from Bragança, very calm and quiet, during the night there may be some dogs barking but after shutting the windows it was okay. Very nice restored building. Nice play to take some rest away from the city center.

Liked everything

The property is a delightful converted farm in a tiny quiet village. Our host Rui was so friendly and helpful, providing travel tips and advice about visiting the region. The delicious breakfast was simple but with a large variety of home made jams and farm grown fruit such as plums, grapes, blackberries, amazing figs and even honeycomb which was a first for me and quite divine. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were very clean.

Bathroom: an additional shelf for toiletries would make the bathroom more comfortable.

Location: Palácios is a small, quiet village in the Montesinho Nature Park. A good base to visit the eastern part of the park or even all the park (if you don’t mind extra driving about 30km per day when visiting western part). There are two good restaurants nearby Lombada and O Rustico, both about 10-15 min on foot (but note that it will be dark when you come back after a dinner). Ask the host to make reservation as both restaurants are popular. And be careful when ordering. Half portion is more than enough for one person, and full portion is impossible to eat. Hotel: Former farmstead belonging to the family of the host for ages was converted into 4 star hotel while maintaining the charm and character of the old property. Great common area comprising a breakfast room with a panoramic window with nature view, siting area with a chimney, game room with a library. The hotel is decorated with artwork created by the family members, there is also a small exhibition room. Room: The functional arrangement typical for this region is maintained in the hotel with rooms located upstairs (ground level was traditionally used for the agricultural activity). The room was large, well designed, with a balcony over the garden. electric sockets: easily accessible including sockets near the bed lighting: good Bed: large and comfortable Bathroom: large, I liked the roof window. A portable heater is available that can be used to heat up the bathroom if necessary (important for winter) Breakfast: very good, both if you prefer German style (ham, cheese, local meat, homemade bread) and French style (homemade cakes, jams, orange juice) WiFi: fast, with strong signal. Important as there is no mobile network in the village. Staff: excellent service, we were also guided over the property including an exhibition of works by the father and brother of the host. Parking: at the street, front of the hotel, safe. Covid: covid passports are required and other measures are observed.

Very uncorrectly booking presents the place in Braganca. Instead it is a village 11 km far from downtown
