Pousada Mosteiro de Amares

A nice hotel

普立茲克建築獎得主Souto de morua再利用設計的旅館，空間非常棒，推薦！

Whilst my wife and I stayed only 1 night at the end of a walking holiday in the Peneda-Geres national park, we felt like we'd reached a peaceful haven in which to relax and enjoy first class service. The hotel itself is interesting to explore to see how it has been sympathetically converted from a monastery into a top class place to stay. The seating around the cloisters, the large outdoor patio area with stunning views of the surrounding hills, the outdoor swimming pool, and flower beds makes it a great place to relax. In the huge original monastery kitchen which now serves as the restaurant, we had an evening meal. Whilst not as extensive a choice as the a la carte menu, the two meals we had on a half board basis were excellent and the service was very friendly and very attentive but not too fussy. Self-serve breakfast was in the same place and was equally good.

Such an honor to visit this hotel and its history. Beautiful renovation and very high standard. Wonderful staff and great cousine. What more can you ask for? Put this Pousada on your list when visiting the area - that would be our recomendation.

I was greeted and treated well in English was super happy and helpful staff , brought my dog with me and they had a welcome dog package! Would highly recommend And looking forward to another visit to enjoy the peaceful nature and tranquility!

The property was quiet and in a walkable area. The dining room staff was excellent -- as was the food. Rooms were nice and the view was even nicer! Thank you!

This hotel is truly wonderful. It is the most beautiful and serene place we have ever stayed in. The room was divine. Very polite and friendly staff. A memorable and unique experience with excellent food

Lovely old monastery renovated sympatheticly with original features. Fabulous stonework. Lots of features like prayer seats and old doors. Lovely terraces and views across the valley. Staff were very attentive. Loved the bell on tables in the bar to call for staff.

This Pousada is located in an old Monastery. The owners have done a super job of creating a modern up to date hotel out of what was a former Monastery. The conversion from Monastery to Hotel had been tastefully and sympathetically done. This Pousada is a bit remote to get to and in a small town that has two cafe bars. We arrived here on a Sunday when the two local cafe bars were closed leaving us with no alternative but to dine an the Pousada restaurant. The meal was acceptable but a bit expensive for what it was. On arrival it is necessary to check in at Reception which is on the first floor. Ordinarily this would not be a problem but it is a problem when 30 or so guests are trying to check in at the same time with one small lift only available for the guests and their luggage. It took us half an hour to reach our room. Our bedroom was far too small to accommodate two adult guests. There was nowhere to leave a suitcase open which most touring guests living out of a suitcase need to do. Lighting In the bedroom was a waste of space. Impossible to read a book in bed. Our bedroom was badly designed. The bathroom door opens out on to the wardrobe door and bumps into the person using the wardrobe. The rail in the wardrobe is too high to be used with ease. You need to be a Giant to reach the coat hanger hooks. There were no instructions as to how to work the air conditioning. There were no instructions as to how to work the television. In the bathroom there is a notice from the hotel asking guests to save water. The hotel could lead by example and provide a plug for the wash hand basin. The wash hand basin plug was noticeably missing. This is because the wash hand basin did not have an over flow pipe. Within a few seconds the basin would fill with water and cause a flood. Whoever thought of installing a hotel wash hand basin that you could not use properly ought to be reprimanded. This hotel need to take out all the existing plug less wash hand basins and replace them with new wash hand basins with plugs and overflows. The cost should be recovered from the person who designed such stupid plug less wash hand basins. The one good thing about this hotel is the fact that the Toaster at Breakfast did work.
