    Lovely family owned hotel that has the feel of Braga. Very friendly and helful staff. Super clean.

    It was all very good, just a small thing of too much deodorant in room when I arrived. Too much street light enters the room at night even with curtains closed

    Great breakfast

    THE GREATEST RECEPTION TEAM AWAITS YOU AT HOTEL DOM VILAS, BRAGA
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Standard Single Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    No quibbles.

    STAFF The staff are Dom Vilas’s greatest strength by far. The four receptionists – João Paulo, Marcía, Marta and Juliano – are warm, friendly, knowledgeable about this ancient city, and EXCEPTIONALLY helpful. But for their expert advice and help: • I would not have managed to see as much of Braga as I did within a Very short space of time (too short) • I would not have made it to my coach on time, AND they mothered me with a paper cup full of the most scrumptious, sweet smoked almonds (which they had in a big bowl at reception, made by another member of staff) to take with me on my coach. So efficient are the housekeeping staff that I was able to check in Very early (7am), and check out late, without anybody grumbling. LOCATION The Dom Vilas is a short 5-min walk from the Avenida da Liberdade in Braga, which in turn leads up to the Centro Histórico. The Centro Histórico is about a 15/20-min walk from the hotel. TRAVEL The Dom Vilas is about a 10-min walk from the local bus stop from where one takes the bus to the Santuário do Bom Jesus do Monte. The Terminal Rodoviária (main coach station) is about 8-10 mins away by taxi (if you don’t have much luggage, you might choose to walk. It takes about 30 mins on foot). DINING OPTIONS The hotel is a 2-min walk from local neighbourhood restaurants, and about a 7-min walk from the main parade of shops and other restaurants on the Avenida da Liberdade. BREAKFAST I did not book this option because the breakfast photographs on their website were not very appealing. If they improve those pictures, I might book myself in for breakfast next time! SAFETY The road the hotel is situated on is largely residential, and felt fairly safe.

    Staircase doors should have a windowed part in order to see whats behind the door. Opening the door leads you straight into the stairs and not being careful could knock someone over from the other side

    Nothing to appoint. Maybe, it could be more electrical outpoints for the chargers.

    We did not take breakfast at the hotel since we knew that we will wake up late. We liked the hospitality and kindness of the staff. We felt as at home.

    It lacks swimming pool and the reception is rather too small.

    The location is great though a little far from the city centre. The hotel location is great for a traveller desiring a very quite stay. It has its restaurant and other restaurants/cafe surrounding it. There is a nearby convenient store (LIDL Plus) where you can buy groceries and personal items cheap and it is just about 10 minutes walk away from the hotel. For fun lovers, there is an adjoining fun park across the a well landscaped river.

    Following up on the issue with the a/c, guessing that it couldn't keep up with the heat that was experienced during the time I was there. I must be honest the hotel felt a bit old and not kept up well. Otherwise it met the needs.

    The staff was actually very helpful, the breakfast was normal and satisfying. The room had a/c but unfortunately was working all that well.

    During the april 2022 were no restaurants nearby open. We had to walk to the centre of Braga to find any open.

    Good location in Braga with free parking and a about 10-15 mnts walk into the city centre. Rooms had everything needed, clean, beds were comfy. Good breakfast, wi-fi was also good. The staff deserve a special mention, they were incredibly friendly and caring, and did everything to make sure we got the most out of Braga and surroundings.
