Ανακαλύψτε τη διαμονή σας σε Guimaraes

The Hotel Fundador was closed, we were hosted at the hotel next door, Hotel de Guimarães, which still belonged to the management. Both hotels are located next to the train station. Pleasant and welcoming atmosphere.

En plein cœur de Guimaraes, un immeuble de caractère entièrement rénové; la chambre est de belle taille, ainsi que la salle de bains, la literie est très confortable, et le lieu est parfaitement calme. Plein de restaurants à moins de 200 m à pied, et l'on peut très facilement se garer pour la nuit , gratuitement, au pied de l'hôtel. Le petit déjeuner est copieux, varié, avec des produits de qualité. Deux petits bémols: Ce n'est pas vraiment un hôtel; la plage de réception est courte, mais le système de récupération et de dépose des clés est parfaitement rodé, et l'on est bien suivi à distance,.... à condition de disposer d'un smartphone !!! Les vitraux au-dessus de la porte de la chambre donnent un beau cachet à l'ensemble, ... mais laissent largement passer la lumière du couloir qui reste allumé tout au long de la nuit !!! Masque obligatoire si l'on est sensible à la lumière.

We were there around end of December, 2022. The owners started this business 6 months before our stay. They are so nice to accommodate all our requests, like gave us a microwave oven while our stay, so we could have take out food. The breakfast had eggs, cheese, yogurt, cold cuts and great coffee. Good food, service, and clean. 3 things to notice: —It’s not 24 hours hotel, so be sure your get code from order website to get in, and remember the owner phone number. The owner showed up in several minutes. —It’s 7 -10 walking minutes from train station with slopes . Not difficult for us, but if your physical ability do not allow, call Uber around 4-6 euros. —There is no elevator , only stairs to 2nd floor. Ask for downstairs if you can’t handle luggage. There is only one room downstairs, with a small yard. It’s an extension attachment, so we heard the rain dancing on top, or imagine it was a symphony, it didn’t bother us. The owners knew it, we suggested build a V roof , instead of the current flat one. The environment is so convenient, 2 grocery stores almost next door, bus stops in front , many restaurants. 15 minutes walk to castle/palace, a must go. We like the place very much, a good offer for the money.

This s a long overdue but heartfelt review of a place of character and grace. The staff could not have been more accommodating: We had difficulty finding our way because the GPS on our rented motorcycle failed us. I can't be sure if it was Yolanda and Rita (and a gentleman whose name I don't remember) who met us in town and accompanied us to the hotel, but we were grateful and touched by how everyone extended themselves. Our downstairs living quarters overlooked a sweet square, breakfast was delicious, and right next door is an adorable cafe with a charming proprietress. Guimaraes is a worthy stop and Casa do Juncal is very special!

The hotel’s sports facilities are first-rate, but the mattresses are relatively hard and need to be improved. The staff is friendly, the SPA is quite good, the 25-meter swimming pool is great, the GYM is very powerful, and the Gym staff is very nice and friendly. The breakfast can be improved, it can be said to be right, but not very good. One night the air conditioner broke down and they changed the room at noon. It was not very pleasant, but the staff tried to solve all the problems in the most friendly way, which left me with a bittersweet taste because I woke up very tired, but Can't be disrupted because people want to solve it in a very friendly way, generally I recommend the hotel and will repeat it again regardless of defects.
