Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was absolutely fabulous! The rooms were clean and comfortable with great views, but the carpets were a bit dirty. The service was kind and friendly, although they seemed a bit inexperienced in bar work. The location is marvelous, right in the center of Bairrada, with plenty of nearby wineries to explore. The dining experience, while good in quality and quantity, was not exceptional. Overall, a lovely experience with a few minor drawbacks.
