Pros:

Oferta de uma garrafa rose, simpatia do staff.

Cons:

O hotel nao tem nada, não tem piscina, nao tem uma mesa de snooker nada.
O pior mesmo é o ar condicionado barulhento e as janelas que nao estao bem vendadas entao temos vento a assobiar a noite toda. Impossivel descansar convenientemente.
Esperava muito mais de um hotel da cadeia pestana.

Un lieu champêtre est magique, nous avons l’impression de voyager dans le temps.
Pros:

À paussada du château de Palmela c’est un endroit champêtre, magnifique, avec panorama à couper le souffle.
A lieu majestueux, plein d’histoires dans les murs et plein d’énergie.
Nous avons apprécié la tranquillité et le respect et la qualité du patrimoine.
Nous étions quatre plus notre minette qui a été très bien accueilli et accepté.
Petit déjeuner copieux et nous avons la restauration qui nous a tellement bien accueilli tout était délicieux.
Nos enfants ont découvert un lieu enchanté, et on appris un peu plus l’histoire de leur patrie.
Le personnel accueillant et tellement bienveillant. Merci à la direction pour notre accueil tous les cinq.
Ne reviendrons ♥️
