Guest House Chaves

Very helpful host

Friendly hosts. Location, Ease to find. Ease of parking. Use of kitchen facilities

Shower room was a bit small

The description on Booking.com of this place is somewhat vague as it didn't talk about bedrooms but mentioned a sofa-bed in the kitchen, so I arrived in some trepidation as to what I would find! I needn't have worried - the place is absolutely delightful in every way. There are a couple of apartments in the main building which is in a camping park for campervans (hence parking for a car is a breeze). The whole area is surrounded by trees and grass and so is very quiet. The location is superb as it's a ten minute walk across a lovely park, by the side of the river, to the centre of Chaves. There are three bridges one can use to cross the river (the big road bridge, the modern (stylish) pedestrian bridge and the ancient Roman Ponte Trajano) as well as stepping stones for the adventurous - there are signs to be careful - if you misjudge them you may drown! There are, of course loads of restaurants and cafes across the river in old Chaves and for those who want fast food there is a McDonalds and Burger King a ten minute walk away. Chaves is, in all ways, a lovely place. The chap running the place could not be more friendly and welcoming and tried his best to communicate with me in English, always greeting me when passing. The internet worked well both inside and outside. My apartment was on two floors and I could sit on a bench and a table and chair outside, which was great as I hate being cooped up inside. The kitchen was a bit dated but perfectly functional, with a nice feature being the old stove which has been kept. The bed is comfortable, the linen is very acceptable and there is piping hot water. On top of all that is the price, which is extremely reasonable. When I'm next in northern Portugal, I know where I'm headed first!

Nothing at all.

Very friendly owners. Comfortable bedroom and bathroom. Separate kitchen area downstairs with wood fire and a basket of wood provided. Separate entrance.

Whats not to like. A modern 2 bed apartment with separate lounge and fully equipped kitchen with space for dining in either kitchen or lounge. We were only staying one night but a family or group could make use of it all. Apartment literally 20 paces from arch to walled city and conveniently one of the few steps to walk the wall. Must prebook parking as multistorey very expensive

Key collect from bakery a little strange.

No breakfast , we went to local bakery and enjoyed it there

We have used this place before and it suits us to park our motorcycles , lock up garage .

Fantastic place to stay when in Chaves…Centrally located, clean, safe and friendly!! absolutely no worries when staying here, perfect place to enjoy the scenic and amazing city that is Chaves
