Muito agradável com a pessoa amada
Pros:

Quarto razoável, cama muito boa, paisagem excelente, jantar muito bom na varanda com vistas magníficas sobre o rio Cávado

Cons:

Pousada com bastantes deficiências a nível de manutenção e harmonia no que se refere ao mobiliário. Relativamente ao pequeno almoço falta de máquina com várias funcionalidades para tirar café expresso, capuccino, chocolate quente, na minha modéstia opinião uma pousada deste nível não poderia ter como chocolate a opção de “Pacotinhos Gresso” nem tão pouco sumo de laranja sem ser natural. Escrevo estas críticas para serem construtivas, de resto nada a acrescentar.

Pros:

L'emplacement et l'accueil sont très bien.
J'ai aussi aimé le style ancien, et la vue.

Cons:

Au restaurant, la viande était très difficile à découper et à mâcher, et leur sangria à 30 euros ressemblait à du vin dilué dans de l'eau, avec un goût amer de cloud de girofle.
Puis leur piscine n'aspirait pas assez les saletés, mouches et autres choses restaient en surface
J'ai connu beaucoup mieux pour le même prix

Pros:

The hotel offers beautiful views of the national park. The interiors are tastefully designed in a mountain lodge style, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere. The staff are friendly, professional, and always willing to accommodate guests' requests.

Cons:

The only downside is the limited selection of dishes available in the hotel's restaurant.

Die Pousada absolut empfehlenswert...das Restaurant jedoch nicht
Pros:

Lage: sensationell im Grünen mit tollem Blick auf den Stausee ! Auch diese Pousada mit tollen alten Gebäuden und yEinrichtungen sowie Gartenanlagen ! Kostenlose Parkplätze !

Cons:

Durchwannen sind immer ungünstig... zu eng !
Wirklich schlecht: von einem Restaurantbesuch würde ich abraten. Was wir selbst erlebt und auch beobachtet haben ! Mein Rindfleisch war absolut ungenießbar, das meiner Frau nur teilweise! Wie eine Küche so etwas anbieten kann, ist mir vollkommen unerklärlich!! Aber abschließend hat man meines wenigstens nicht berechnet.
