Solar das Avencas

Pleasant, obliging hosts. Excellent breakfast. Loads to eat. Varied local produce, including 3 types of local pastries (for which Portalegre is justly famous). Very large room, with separate dressing room. Prettty central Parking right outside

There was no balcony (one was advertised) and two of the four windows would not open, thus the external blinds could not be raised. The view, anyway, was of the other side of a very narrow street. The bed was rather small - both narrow and short. The hot water took 5 minutes to arrive.

Special experience . Feel the Portuguese traditional culture.

Lovely house, with typical Portuguese furniture of yesteryears. José was a perfect host, and breakfast was incredible. The room was very big, nicely furnished again, and very comfortable. Have to return.

The location was Handy for the city centre but out of the way enough for A peaceful evening. The Room was the size of A small flat and If you've ever wondered what it was like to sleep in A museum, this is the Place. The Art and décor takes back in time yet still providing all modern amenities. even though surrounded in Antiques the whole House was spotlessly clean. The breakfast was fit for A king and I was lucky enough to be given some beautiful homemade, very yummy, cakes to enjoy on my Adventures for the day.

The only thing I didn't like was only being able to stay one night. If I'm ever in the region again i'll make sure to spend longer, just for the experience of staying in such A well presented Guest house.

Huge room, lots of antiquities, big bathroom, great staff, great breakfast

Wonderful interior, patient host, rich breakfast

The pool lasted

Amazing staff, friendly and shared history of location.

Needed a bigger work desk

Our host was very accommodating and willing to help with recommendations etc. We were moving on too early to have the breakfast but nonetheless coffee and cakes were left out. Enormous room, well furnished with period pieces, art etc Pretty roof top courtyard was available for guests to use

Not a lot really

Lovely hosts, best breakfast in a long time with regional and homemade products, huge room, beautiful atmosphere with historical interior design, free parking right next to the house
