Breakfast..poor , only cold food

Location

Stayed in May 2024

No parking, the hotel needs to be remodeled/renewed, very hard to get shower water at a normal temperature, usually simply cold. Breakfast was quite "poor" with little variety. Only one person taking care of a full breakfast room, not manageable.

Location, location, location, staff was nice

The disadvantage of the location is that it is on the top of the hill, where not every taxi goes. I had to wait sometime until a taxi comes. The buses are also rare. The room was separated from another one by the door. Therefore, it was possible to hear people laughing and talking loudly in the neighbouring room. There is no laundry room where one can iron his/her closes. (Of course, it is not promised to be there. But sometimes people can expect it.)

Very friendly staff, good hotel breakfast, clean room. The advantage of the location is a great view, Bom Jesus is nearby.

location excellent

The rooms are in need of refurbishment, feels like it's from the 70's/80's. Almost no power outlets, there's no mini fridge, bed is very uncomfortable, so as the pillows.

Location is great, inside the Sanctuary. Room was clean and quiet.

We arrived late at night and struggled a bit to find the entrance. But it was OK in the end!

The location!!! Amazing gardens, and so close to everything we wanted to see.

All was fine. Maybe just the shower “head” didn’t hold. But nothing serious

Comfortable, silent and clean

Hotel do Lago was closed, so our booking was shifted to hotel Do Templo, in teh same area. The hotel had a good location but the hotel facilities did not fully meet 4 stars standard (room equippment).

Communication with the hotel, parking place available.

A bit run down place, old fashioned needs some renovation.

the location on the hill is fantastic. you can walk around forever.

Nothing

That it is located in BonJesus, which gave me access to wonderful places. But also it is far from the city, if I didn’t had a car, I would’ve find it really hard to go to the city

The hotel is very old and not very clean. Unfortunately, our room was not very pleasant - dirty walls and carpets, uncomfortable beds, drafts from the window, stains on carpet and furniture. We got breakfast in the hotel, it was very simple with very limited options. I would recommend to avoid it and get nicer meal somewhere outside.

Hotel is situated in a really nice place, you can walk straight to the Bom Jesus do Monte. Beautiful view from the room. Unfotunately, that is all I liked there.

Access to the parking (inside a protected area) is done through a gate where you need to pay 1€. As I did have no coins to pay, pressed the button to talk to receptionist and nobody answered. Waited for 15 minutes to enter and had to call the reception number and talk to the clerk 4 times!!! This is an unacceptable inconvenience that ruins an otherwise good experience

Great location

Difficult to review Hotel do Lago as we were moved to Hotel Do Parque which is nearby.

Hair dryer broken - but noted at reception for immediate fix

Braga's city center is not close and parking there is complicated. However, Bom Jesus is the crown jewel of the city. To get to the hotels by car, there are 1-euro tolls to be paid in cash, though when you get a receipt, the hotels refund you that amount every time you use them.

To start, Hotel do Lago is closed during the time we booked, we were not supposed to get a room there. Unaware to us, the 4 hotels in the area are from the same company, so we were transferred to Hotel do Parque, which is right next to Bom Jesus. The staff was very kind and helpful in solving the wrong booking issue and find our room, even more, as an apology, they gave gave us a nice bottle of wine. They were very helpful with information and tips, including providing free toothbrushes/toothpaste. The room we got was superb, with a nice view of Bom Jesus and excellent facilities. The breakfast is the best, buffet style with hot items and plenty of nice things to eat/drink

could be way better with small improvements such as : pillows were not on the bed but in the cupboard. it was a bit odd the place needs to be refreshed. new carpet, paint the walls etc… it looks pretty old school but with minor investment it would really improve dogs barking all night next door - bring earplugs or put something on YouTube to help you fall asleep

location is beautiful, staff is very nice, breakfast was good and it was very affordable price

Stayed in September 2022

No Kettle nor complementary coffee and tea was available at the rooms.

Great location and excellent staff. Very good value for money.

Shower : water pressure too slow and general state of the bathroom not satisfying for the range of this hotel. Cushions were to be found and were not available on the bed.
