This hotel has a big swimming pool. It is placed in a beautiful location. Above the village of Piodao. The staff are very friendly and always ask if you need anything. Very comfortable seating. Alot of choice for breakfast and the dinner buffet has also got good choice in food.

so glad we decided to stay in this hotel! the staff were all so kind and welcoming. we were visiting during the quiet season i think, because there were hardly any other tourists at our hotel, which i personally enjoyed! the room was large with amazing views of the city. check in process was easy, breakfast was good, and the location overlooks the town on the top of the hill and is a 1-2 minute drive down the hill, so very convenient!

Location with stunning views on the village and its surroundings. Spacious room. Very friendly and helpful staff. Swimming pool is a plus. Breakfast was plentiful.

We stayed here for a couple nights, in mid-May, for the proximity to Piódão. Our hotel “superior double room with city views” had superb views of Piódão, a traditional village built entirely of dark slate, with bright blue windows and doors, and a white church. This was also a convenient base for a mountainous loop road-trip through Serra da Estrela Natural Park with lunch at Manteigas. I liked the hotel atmosphere – It’s a sturdy lodge building with nice old wood floors, and interesting local artwork scattered around the property. Staff were very friendly and helpful. In mid-May, the mountains were full of wildflowers; the drives to and from Piódão took us through mountains full of yellow broom, purple lavenders, and red poppies.

Hotel located on a slope among the hills overlooking the fasinating stone village Piódão. Breakfast was very abundant and tasty, staff was friendly and helpful. We very much liked the architecture of the facility, referring in style to the buildings of the stone village.
