I loved the people working there. Everyone was so kind. On our last day, they saw us enjoying the sun before our check-out and told us that we could stay a little longer if we wanted to and not to worry about checkout. Awesome! We had zero problems while staying there.

What a wonderful gem of a hotel! We loved the modern renovation of an ancient building, the delightful indoor and outdoor public spaces and the marble sculptures thand art work on display. Added bonus of complementary tea and cake throughout the day! Breakfast was at least the standard of a good 4-star hotel.

The bed was too hard. I liked the modern design, but the room could have used a rug and more soft furnishings.

Very convenient location in a quaint town, close to sights and restaurants. Nice breakfast. Lovely artwork exposed.

Pillows and mattress were not very comfortable and walls between rooms are too thin. The man in the room next to ours was coughing hard the whole day and night, woke us up.

Kind staff, clean rooms

The hotel was in a great location. The front desk was great. If you need good internet this can be a problem. They gave me an extender which worked well. Highly recommend this property.

Only thing that I can think of is extra pillows. However, I didn't ask for them either.

The proprietor paid a lot of attention to details. There was so much to see and discover at this hotel. Every nook had an item of interest. Loved the vintage space, the kids space, the games/library room, the tea room.....so much. The pool area (though we didn't use) looked great and was used by other clients. There were restaurants available and Vila Viscosa was a surprising little town (enjoyed a free piano concert one evening at the palace!) The staff were attentive and helpful. The towels in the bathroom were large and ample.....wonderfully luxurious!!!!!! Inclusive breakfast, ample and lots to choose from with fruit available!!! Overall excellent!!!!

Beautiful, rooms are nice and a good functioning airconditioning, swimming pool perfect, very typical Portuguese style Alentejo, breakfast was very good and last but not least, all staff from reception to cleaners were very friendly. I definitely will go back.

Beautifully restored Manor House with tasteful additions in the heart of Vila Viçosa. Comfortable rooms well appointed, super friendly and helpful staff, a great breakfast with loads of local delicacies.

The rooms have balconies that oversee the internal courtyard which is quite pleasant. My room was huge. The hotel has little nooks and crannies which are delightful. They also leave a 24h self-service area where you can make your own tea from a varied selection of teas, it was very comforting. Breakfast also was a pleasant surprise it had a wide range of offerings.

Great little hotel with lovely staff and clean rooms. Comfy bed and quality bed linen. Good hot shower and a great breakfast. Plenty of communal space and small pool to cool down in. No problem street parking.

Sloping ramped corridor was inclined to be slippy. Texturing it would be an improvement. Interior was to a very high standard

Stunning interior

Unfortunately - as is usually the case in Portugal - the pool isn't heated, which meant it was a very short dip for me! Everything else was perfect.

The hotel is beautiful and just around the corner from the palace (where there is ample parking) and all other sights in Vila Vicosa. Our double room exceeded our expectations - we had a separate large lounge area and two terraces overlooking the pool and central area. Breakfasts are varied with hot and cold options. The scrambled egg, in particular, was very good. Somehow we managed to resist the two types of cake on offer (one carrot with a chocolate topping). There is a kettle with tea and coffee which guests can use throughout the day, which we particularly liked. There is also a fascinating little vintage clothes shop on site, which we only visited at night (when it was closed) but seemed very reasonably priced.

All was perfect

Wonderful pink marble town. Just one minute walk from the Ducal Palace. A must see at only 8 euros to view 35 rooms. Lov ed being able, at no cost, to pop down into restaurant anytime to help yourself to free coffee, tea and spring water.

Brilliant location, between the main square and the palace. Super and enthusiastic welcome.

It would be great to have tea and coffee making in the room.

The building has some lovely spaces for guests to enjoy. Our suite overlooking the pool was spacious with an adjoining comfortable seating area and nice balconies . The 4 poster bed was very comfortable. There was music available in all rooms . We found street parking near the hotel. Good restaurants, the palace and castle are a short stroll. The staff were very friendly, especially the lady running the breakfast room. The breakfast selection was good.

Parking near the hotel is an issue. The only place to park is at the Praco Ducal. Maintenance of this beautiful property could be improved.

It is a fantastic building in the heart of the old town, centrally located and not far from the Praco Ducal. It is a nice surprise to have a swimming pool in an historical building. There are a lot of cosy common spaces. The room is well sized, modern, bright and comfortable. Breakfast was good with a nice selection of local specialities.
