Hotels with Views in Schist Villages

"Check in was great, the room was outstanding, and the gardens made for a nice stroll with a glass of wine. Extraordinary history surrounding this property."

"We were upgraded to a corner room with an oversized balcony looking out over the pool to the river. Spacious room, quiet, plenty of shelf and drawer space. The staff were amazing, Portuguese-friendly. Breakfast was very nice, with lots of hot and cold options including an omelet station. Location was very walkable to the Old Town, and also to the opposite side of the river and the Santa Clara monastery, plus walkways on both sides of the river."

"Incredible view of the convent and castle as well as the river. Reading area in the room. Extensive breakfast options. "

"Overall very good, helpful and friendly staff"

"Location was excellent although a bit noisy beside the buses. Rooms were large and comfortable. Breakfast was okay but food stations ran out from time to time."

"The staff are welcoming and helpful. The double room, whilst a little small had good AC, a comfortable bed and a good shower. Breakfast was very good and great value. Recommended. "

"Most comfortable stay we had in Portugal thus far. I had been digital nomading all over Portugal for a couple weeks now. I had been in many hostels and motel. But this is the first time I had stayed in a hotel as comfortable as this. This has all American amenities one would expect in a hotel like shampoo, towels, air condition, good comfortable bedding, and spacious room. I cleaned well, I slept undisturbed for 10 hours for the first time in Portugal. Best place in Lisbon and Coimbra "
