Recomiendo para visitar la sierra Malcata
Pros:

Las habitaciones son muy amplias y cómodas y todo está muy limpio. El desayuno espectacular y las cenas también

Cons:

El aire acondicionado no se puede regular. Es para todas las habitaciones iguales. No entendí muy bien este tema

Foi uma estada confortável e sossegada. O hotel estava lotado e no quarto não se ouvia uma mosca.
Pros:

O quarto era óptimo. Muito espaço, óptima televisão, muito conforto. O pequeno almoço muito variado,com tudo o que se procura num pequeno almoço. Bons acessos, tudo muito espaçoso e bem sinalizado. O funcionário do restaurante era amabilíssimo.

Cons:

A comida do restaurante é muito salgada e cara para as quantidades e variedade de elementos no prato. (Ou então, escolhemos mal o prato, ... a verdade é que jantámos lá no dia da chegada e não gostámos) A decoração das salas de refeição e espaços comuns é de muito mau gosto. (Mas isso também é subjectivo, claro...) .

Ficou muito aquém das espectativas.
Pros:

Pequeno almoço muito fraco e só até ás 09h30. Spa muito pouco cuidado e com poucas cadeiras, apenas 3 ...sem toalhas disponíveis. Apenas podemos utilizar o espaço por tempo limitado. Quarto com a cola dos espelhos a aparecer nas postas dos armários, inicialmente até pensei que fosse decoração.

Cons:

Um espaço gigante quase ao abandono, meia dúzia de funcionários, nenhum movimento.

Prima hotel met goede faciliteiten en vriendelijke en behulpzaam personeel.
Pros:

Mooie locatie. Ruime kamer met balkon. Netjes en schoon. Vriendelijk personeel. Lekker avondeten.

Cons:

Het ontbijt viel ons een beetje tegen. Veel kant-en-klaar producten en fabrieksproducten.

Pros:

Hotel localizado num local privado recomendado para se tirar uns dias em casal ou em família, uma pequena recomendação pessoal reservem sempre um local para jantar pois visto que está localizado numa região mais pequena os restaurantes fecham cedo e há muita procura para pouca oferta.. funcionários super simpáticos de destacar a bendita que do início ao fim sempre foi super prestável simpática e uma ótima profissional.

Mauvais rapport qualité / prix

Chambres spacieuses et petit déjeuner correct.

Piscine payante car nous avons réservé via booking. Salle de sport payante également...il n'y a évidemment pas un chat ni dans l'une ni dans l'autre !!
