- Lise (10/5): - Au milieu de nulle part, cet hôtel super confortable avec une chambre spacieuse. Nous avons soupé à l'hôtel, un petit buffet. Déjeuner et souper très bien.
- Sandra (10/5): Beautiful & comfortable hotel - The Inatel Vila Ruiva is a gem and possibly the nicest hotel we have ever stayed in. The room was so spacious as was the bathroom. We had a patio area overlooking the countryside. While it wasn't pool weather, the swimming pool and deck area is lovely. Although there are not a lot of staff around, the staff proved to be friendly and helpful doing their multitasking. I also didnt realise when booking that there is a gym in the hotel too. The breakfast buffet was impressive also. There is not once aspect of the Inatel that isn't perfectly designed for comfort and relaxation, it even has in indoor garden downstairs. Outside there is ample parking and a beautiful little village.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Le bain et les carreaux de céramique de la chambre de bain étaient sales (les joints de coulis avec du moisis).
- Rui (10/5): Sossego - Local muito agradável e sossegado, ideal para descansar... quartos amplos e confortáveis. Gostei.

- PAULO C R (10/5): Hotel perfeito! - Hotel incrível, jantar muito elegante, funcionários atenciosos.... vila muito querida, medieval...
- Petra (8/5): Sehr ruhiges Hotel . Zufahrt schlecht ausgeschilde - Nur eine Übernachtung , da Weiterfahrt nach Miranda do Corvo.
- jose (8/5): Bom Hotel - Descanso de viagem
Quarto aquecido à chegada, Casa de banho com má distribuição das louças, pequeno almoço agradável.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Beautiful location! - An absolute gem hidden away! A stunning location, friendly staff and great sized rooms.
- Danny (10/5): Wonderful surprise - We arrived at the small medieval village of Vila Ruiva and expected to find, hopefully, a reasonable hotel in the Inatel Hotel. Entering the gates of the hotel area we were struck by the magnificent view and the architecturally clean-cut hotel building.
From then on everything was pleasingly good to excellent - the staff were all pleasing, polite and helpful, the room and all hotel facilities spotlessly clean and well maintained.
The hotel is obviously used as a conference centre and has all the required facilities. The surrounding areas are picturesque and interesting but we hardly left the premises, they were so comfortable.
- m teresa (10/5): de turismo por el pais vecino - muy agradable y tranquila.Perfecto para el relax
mal señalizado y dificil de encontrar
personal muy amable
- Verified traveler (10/5): Fim de semana em Fornos de Algodres - Vila Ruiva - A estadia foi otima e o serviço excelente, incluíndo as refeições.
- Bill (10/5): A quiet place to get away - Rather surprising to find this modern luxury hotel in a very old, small village about 10 km from Fornos. There is really nowhere else to eat, but the buffet breakfast was excellent and the restaurant prices were quite low.
