Hillside hotel with wonderful views of Braga and excellent restaurant.
Pros:

If you know this hotel, you already know its breathtaking views and excellent panoramic restaurant looking out over Braga. We have stayed here several times and would always come back. But if you do not know it, you need to be aware that it is in a popular park several km outside Braga up a steep hill, so if you do not have a car you need to work out how to get there (buses 2, 83 and 88, but a taxi is not too expensive, around 10 Euros from the centre). The staff are used to foreigners and give you a very good welcome. The little elevator is fun, but only useful as a way to get to the number 2 bus terminal.

Cons:

It rained the whole time we were there.
