Marvelous stay in isolated Marvao

What an exceptional spot! Marvao is incredible. The pousada is in a perfect location, and overlooking the plains below, it has a fabulous view. Our room, although small, was quite commodious and had historic traditional Portuguese furniture. Our dinner and breakfast were most enjoyable, although the dinner was not “gourmet”. Would we stay there again? Absolutely.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Stunning location and staff couldn't have been more helpful. Had some problems finding it as signs to Pousada were poor, and no directions available. Parking is limited at hotel, although there is sufficient within walking distance. Steep slopes and steps to hotel itself, with no vehicle access, so you will need to carry your luggage some distance, although staff were happy to help. Once in the hotel however, the rooms, restaurant and support were excellent. Well worth a visit for the view alone.

Great location in the heart of the town with super friendly & helpful staff. Margarida was very welcoming and gave us great insight about sightseeing around the town. Only con is the property needs renovation; furnishings & decor is dated, but the town is small & 1500 years old.

Mountain top oasis

Hotel is situated in a small town hugging the top of a mountain with spectacular views. Small room but hotel has several public areas with views. We couldn’t get into hotel restaurant but the management directed us to nearby alternatives Beware driving into the village through a narrow passage in the town walls and very narrow “roads”The hotel is not well marked so I walked around the village to find it

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Gorgeous property, clean and spacious room, easy walk to the castle with panoramic views, impeccable service. The only issue is the nerve-wracking drive to the hotel on extremely narrow, cobblestone streets and lack of parking. We lucked into one of 2 spaces in front but the other alternative would have been to drop off and park way down the mountain. There should be advance warning and maybe even a better solution! Reception clerk very helpful with suitcases and accommodating!

I highly recommend a stay at this historic property in Marvão. It has an old world charm and the amenities are excellent. The rooms are clean and comfortable, brightly lit, the breakfast superb and the view from the dining room is amazing. The staff were friendly and most helpful.

Aussergewöhnlich

Die Pousada liegt auf einem Berg mit phantastischer Aussicht auf die Umgebung. Die Anfahrt ist sehr abenteuerlich durch sehr enge Gassen, notfalls hilft aber das Hotel. Unser Zimmer war gut eingerichtet, bequeme Betten. Vom Restaurant und der Bar laesst sich der Ausblick sehr gut geniessen. Essen ist gut. Sehr gut ist der Service im Hotel, alle sind sehr freundlich und Hilfsbereit

Traumlage im Herzen von must-see-Marvão. Sehr freundlicher und hilfsbereiter Service. Wunderbare Aussicht im Speisezimmer und auf der Terrasse. Nicht alle Zimmer habe Aussicht und die engen Gassen sind für ungeübte Autofahrer mit grossen Autos eine Herausforderung. Fazit: Unbedingt einen Besuch wert!
