Pousada Mosteiro de Amares

It was the first time we stayed at a heritage location and it was such a wonderful experience. The Pousada is easy to find but required a bit of a drive as we traveled from Lisbon. The Pousada was well-maintained and most things in the rooms were working except the blinds in one of the rooms and the key to the main door of the other room (it was nothing significant for us as the hotel team had taken care of quickly once we told the front desk). We love the walk within the building as well as around the compound. There were lots of common spaces (around the fireplace and the games area) for us to gather. The team was amazing - the Front Desk was efficient and professional plus the Bar & dining crew were attentive and friendly. Wish we had more time in this Pousada. Will be there when I next visit Portugal and will recommend it to all my friends.

Exceptional place! Good value for money, it is worth every penny! Staff extremely kind and always figuring out how to meet your needs. They made my partner bday exceptional! Beautiful location with so much to explore around the area, aesthetically pleasing, amazing outside area, incredible restaurant with amazing food and wine. Will definitely be back soon!

The property is a hidden gem, tucked away in what can only be described as a piece of history. Absolutely stunning interiors-unique but tasteful. The staff were fabulous and welcoming in all areas of the hotel and you can tell they are very passionate about the property. I would note that this is not the place to go for nightlife, it’s for those wishing to relax and unwind and appreciate nature and the beautiful surroundings. Get out in the car and explore the wonderful scenery on offer and you will not be disappointed. Well done to all.

fantastic project of reconstruction of the monastery of the 12 century made in 1992 by Pritzker Prize winner Eduardo Soutto de Moura. Looks fresh and stylish even now, it is smart, elegant, and impressive. Just come here for dinner in a hall of the monastery that looks like a blast furnace. The breakfast is picturesque and worth being a story or even Instagram post. The air conditioning in the rooms is like a piece of art -- tubes onto the wooden honey color box which is a bathroom and at the same moment the headboard of your bed! The room floor is wooden. and the floorboard width is exquisite. Different levels of stone floors in public areas are connected by three steps red marble staircase. Green doors. Chinese ink paintings. Stainless steel room doors. Wicked armchairs. Leather armchairs next to the stone fireplaces. Embroidered hotel logo. Art. Rotating transparent doors leading to the cloisters. Even coffee tables in rooms, even balcony door locks, even coat hangers -- all are absolutely unique and made for measure. Absolutely rare, precious project. Thank you Pestana com for keeping it untouched.

Absolutely beautiful location and hotel. It was breathtaking and had a wonderful atmosphere. The staff were friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. The food at the restaurant was delicious with lots of local culinary choices. Walking the grounds especially in the early morning and evening transported you to another time. Fabulous stay!
