My husband and I spent the New Year's Eve at this amazing hotel, boutique style in a old buiding. The location is outstanding: in the heart of Viseu's historical center, few meters from The Se, Vasco da Gama Museum. You feel like walking through the past: narrow streets of blocks, restaurants with tiles, so wonderful! The breakfast was a sensation:... More

This was a charming hotel and fantastic location for strolling downtown historic Viseu. The parking was a little difficult but once we found it the hotel went out their way to secure free parking. The hotel itself is a marvel. You feel like you are living in a private home eith all the new amenities without losing the charm of... More

It´s a small boutique hotel in a renovated old building just in the heart of Viseu's "centro histórico" (old town), close to the Sé (main church) and Museu Grão-Vasco. Close by are several small bars and restaurant and it feels secure to wander by even late at night. This hotel offers several small living rooms, tastefully decorated and has a... More

The hotel is very cosy and clean. It has several small living rooms, ancient style decorated. The room and bathroom are spacious, clean and well decorated. Breakfast was nice, could have a bit more variety, but the food was fresh and tasty. Had a problem with the internet, which is free, by cable in the rooms, or wireless in the... More

Well located, confortable room with bad pilows. TV with a very, very, very limited number of channels. If you want a 5* don't choose this hotel. Everything would be fine if the rating was 4*. For a 5* the breakfast is poor.

Helpful staff but too young and inexperienced. Parking is awful though the hotel location is excellent and the hotel is beautiful from the outside. Good architecture. Inside...well...the room we stayed in was dreadful in terms of decoration and the dinning room was shockingly pseudo-modern for an ancient bulding like that, showing lack of taste. Regular breakfast.

We stayed overnight on a trip through Northern Portugal. The hotel is an interesting renovation of an old building. A nice mix of old and new. It is really well located in the historic center of Viseu... making it very easy to see the main churches, the Grau Vasco museum , and other sights. The staff is quite helpful. I... More
