Guest Reviews

• paula (10/5): - The room and bathroom were clean. The beds and linens were comfortable. The breakfast was excellent. The hotel sits in a perfect location. It is close to the parking area if you have a car. Remember to stop at the hotel first to collect the parking card for 5 euro. The historic area is walkable because this hotel is in the center. The art work throughout the hotel adds a special touch. Our room had floor to ceiling windows and a balcony view of the street in front of the hotel. We loved it! The young lady at the desk was very nice and helpful.
• Evanderson (8/5): - Hotel bem localizado. Funcionários atenciosos. Faltou apenas um elevador.
• Marleny De (10/5): - Excellent hotel but it doesn't have an elevator, we had to climb 3 floors.
• Nancy (10/5): - Great place and location! They do have paid parking for the hotel for 5 euro, but the staff told us there is a free parking lot, which typically has open spots. Both lots are a bit of a distance, but we parked in the free lot and walked for our whole time there.
• jean-nyl (10/5): - Hôtel bien situé pour visites à pied
• Patricia (10/5): - Beautiful old building with up to date facilities. Close to all main sights
• Rafael C (10/5): Boa opção próximo ao centro histórico. - Grata surpresa, bem melhor do que as fotos sugerem. Localização ótima, fizemos todo centro histórico a pé. Não tem estacionamento no prédio, porém não foi um problema, pois tem possibilidade de parar o carro descarregar bagagem na porta no hotel e eles tem parceria com estacionamento coberto bem próximo, por 5 euros a noite. Café da manhã gostoso, com as opções básicas e café estilo nespresso. Elevador chega apenas no primeiro piso, para nós não foi problema. Para mim só faltou um frigobar no quarto.
• LUCIANE S (10/5): - Foi uma estadia muito agradável, funcionários muito atenciosos.
• Sueli C (10/5): - Hotel muito bom, café da manhã simples, mas tem tudo. Pessoal do hotel muito prestativo.
• Gioconda (6/5): - The smell of cigarettes perforated through the stairwells and into the guest rooms, particularly on the first floor. There is no elevator, which can be an issue if you have a lot of luggage. Staff are not willing to help out with luggage because they claim to be a 2-star hotel. Will not return to this hotel.
• Joe (8/5): - Nice place.
• Mary (10/5): - Beautiful town to visit.
• Diane (10/5): - Super emplacement, personnel à l'écoute de nos besoins. N'hésitez pas à réserver cet endroit.
• Cathy (10/5): - Very clean and comfortable hotel! Everything went smoothly from check in (we were able to store our luggage in the breakfast room) to check out. Our room was spacious and we were able to adjust the heat pump for heating the room. The continental breakfast had a nice variety of pastries, yogurts, cheese and meats. I enjoyed being able to have a large freshly brewed coffee. I would happily stay here again. The hotel is in a good location for walking to the old city.
• Alexandre (8/5): - Nice hotel with helpful staff. Very well located.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Excelente opção no centro histórico de Guimarães - Bom hotel, bem no centro histórico de Guimarães. Equipe atenciosa e prestativa, hotel muito limpo e bem conservado. Apenas um detalhe a ser levado em conta: o prédio tem 3 andares e não possui elevador, então, se você tem problemas de locomoção ou para subir com suas malas pela escada, pode não ser uma boa opção.
• Rob (10/5): - Fabulous place to stay in a fabulous city!
• Verified traveler (6/5): Meh! - Property is dated and old. Typical Portuguese rudeness during front desk interactions, but not bad. Property states it has laundry facilities, not true. It also states it is wheelchair accessible, which is not true. There is no elevator and there are stairs to go anywhere in the property.
• Virginia (8/5): - This a nice, clean hotel in a central but quiet area. Staff were fantastic. I only give it 4 stars, however, as there is no elevator above the first floor. The property clearly states this on its website but it's still a pain to drag luggage up the stairs. There's also no coffee in the room.
• Georgia (8/5): - Able to park outside the hotel to unload our luggage, two options available for parking, both were approx 300 m, from hotel. Option 1 was free, totally safe, second option was 5€ p/day secured parking
• Michele (8/5): - Un buon albergo in una ottima posizione; camere pulite e personale gentile e professionale. Camere nella norma e considerando il prezzo buona scelta.
• Ronald (10/5): A convenient, well-kept hotel - This was a charming, well kept, small hotel in a very convenient location. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The included buffet breakfast was delicious and plentiful.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautifully appointed room, comfort bed, spacious bathroom. Very clean, quiet location.
• Silvano (8/5): - Muito bom e bem localizado, porém uma grande desvantagem é não ter elevador…. Meu pai com 70 anos teve que subir escada com a mala
• HEATHER (8/5): - Historic building. Loved my room on top floor with small balcon. Easy to walk everywhere
• nadia (10/5): - La struttura è antica (non è dota quindi di ascensore) bella e molto curata con particolare attenzione all’ecologia. Situata nel centro storico su una via silenziosa. Il personale professionale e gentile. Stupendo soggiorno!
• MORGANA (10/5): - The beauty of the place
• Hector (6/5): - No me gusto la atención del personal. La reunión ubicación del hotel es buena y el balcon muy bueno
• Alexis (8/5): - Très bon séjour dans cet hôtel en plein centre ville. Emplacement idéal, très bel hôtel, confortable. Je recommande
• André (10/5): A quiet, cozy, tasteful choice - Ideal location and quietness. Mestre de Avis is a modest hotel but feels more than a two-star hotel. The bedroom was spacious as well as the bathroom, both impeccably clean. The decoration of the bedroom is minimalist, smart, tasteful. The hotel is placed at the city center, but not by the bar square (5 minutes walk) which makes it a very quiet. I had breakfast at Clarinha (highly recommend Amores) or Camir ("Napoleão" for the afternoon tea) and have no opinion on their breakfast.
• Yuki (6/5): - Good price and great location. The quality is what you would expect at the price. The walls seem to be thin as I could hear people in the next room using the bathroom.
• Giovana (6/5): Razoável para uma noite. - Quarto pequeno e sem frigobar. O hotel não possui estacionamento. Localização boa.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Rustig gelegen, vriendelijk personeel, schoon, dus prima ervaring
• Gladis (10/5): - Hotel bem localizado, super confortável, fo.os bem recepcionados. As meninas q nos atenderam foram atenciosas. Recomendo o hotel, bem limpo e confortavel.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - So clean and cheap!
• MICHEL (8/5): - Dommage qu il faut attendre 15h30 pliés pour rentrer dans la chambre A 15h il faut attendre à l accueil et les chambres sont prêtes !
• PEDRO LUIZ (8/5): bom - hotel muito bem localizado, ao lado da praça central de Guimarães, com vários restaurantes e café disponíveis. Recepcionistas atenciosas, mas algumas sem experiência . Faltou pães no café da manhã no dia 1 de janeiro pois esqueceram que o fornecedor não trabalhava neste dia. Banheiro pequeno e toalhas de banho TERRÍVEIS. Pequenas e velhas. café da manhã simples . Cama boa e tavesseiros ruins.
• Henning (10/5): - Great stay. Comfortably, good standard. Very nice receptionist.
• Xacobe (8/5): Recomendable - Hotel bien situado, a un paso andando del centro histórico, habitaciones amplias, colchones cómodos, y personal amable, poco más se puede pedir
• Rosangela (8/5): local agradável - tudo muito bom
• Gene (8/5): Nice be prepared for walk upstairs - Place was nice, only issue for us was we were on third floor elevator only went to first fllor
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Due to recent one way street changes in the area, GPS does not give accurate information. Hotel has asked for changes to GPS. Best found in the daylong got hours or ask for directions one you get close. GREAT LOCATION
• Thomas (10/5): Great Place to Stay - Wonderfully located, have special pricing arranged with a nearby parking garage, lovely common area available for use.
• William (8/5): Great Choice! - Great place to stay in town especially for the price! Easy walking distance to central district of town and all local sites. Staff extremely friendly and helpful! Morning breakfast which was included in price, nice, fresh, and filling. Rooms, clean, comfortable. Only two comments for improvement. Bolt down in room safes and provide directions in town to locate hotel. ALL GPS devices that we used did not help proper streets to use in getting to the hotel.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location. Room was small but nice. Bathroom (with bidet!) was giant by comparison.
• Roland (10/5): - Très bon hotel dans une ville magnifique
• Phillip (10/5): Great value, well located. - The hotel is very well located near the old town. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The room was well laid out, comfortable and quiet. A good deal for the money. Travelers should note that the rooms are on 3 floors and there is no elevator. There are two parking spots right in front - you can park in one overnight for 3 Euros, but I would advise to book your parking spot with the hotel ahead of time.
• Maria do Céu (10/5): Hospedar-se onde nasceu Portugal - A localização é excelente. O Apartamento é confortável e a equipe é muito simpática e prestativa.
• Carlos (10/5): A repetir - Hotel muito bom, quarto amplo e cômodo e imensa simpatia dos funcionários.
• Ana Luzia (10/5): Satisfeitos - Ficamos muito satisfeitos com a hospedagem!

• tom (10/5): great place to drink 65 year old tawny port - Lovely designer boutique hotel ,very close to all places in old town,very nice atttention to detail great common space on first floor was ideal place to sit and drink 65 year old tawny port with friends.Price very reasonable,staff very friendly and helpful.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Ok hotel with small room. - Room was really small and only thing what you could see from the window was other building. Also breakfast was disappointing as there were not many choices. Stuff was friendly and location excellent.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Good value - Close to the centre of town near historical area. A modern concept, very pleasing to the eye. Boutique type. Pleasant staff, nice bar, cold buffet breakfast, quality décor. Would recommend.
