Retiro perfeito para casal num fim de semana.
Pros:

Espaço muito bem conseguido. O hotel é lindíssimo. O silencio em toda a propriedade permite que consigamos descansar verdadeiramente, um verdadeiro retiro.
Recomendo vivamente experimentarem o restaurante, os preços não São facilmente acessíveis mas justificam pela tremenda qualidade de comida e serviço.

Recomendo este hotel para quem quer desfrutar de um retiro autentico, fora da vida rotineira da cidade, trabalho e vida pessoal.

Fantástico!

Wir hatten ein grosses Deluxe Doppelzimmer mit einer tollen Terrasse. Die historische Umgebung, die Ruhe, das feine Nachtessen; alles haben wir sehr genossen und uns wohlgefühlt. Wir können diese Unterkunft allen empfehlen!

Leider hatten wir trotz Nachfrage während unseres Aufenthaltes kein Internet zur Verfügung.

Tranquilidade e bem estar!!!
Pros:

Propriedade com viės histórico, onde funcionava um convento franciscano, localização especial, fora da área urbana, cercado de plantas, quarto e cama confortáveis, café da manhã excelente, jantar gourmet bom com boa carta de vinho, mas custo elevado. Staff excelente e proativo. Estacionamento em pátio externo descoberto.

Cons:

Duas observações: fechamento do box (banheira) com cortina de plástico é inadimissivel num hotel dessa categoria. Na área interna do hotel, praticamente todas as plantas são artificiais (decoração). O verde e as flores estāo do lado de fora. Uma pena!
