Staying in Geres

This was a great time of year to go to this hotel. There was almost no one at the hotel. The room needs better ventilation. The front desk person was ill and not able to speak English too well so there wasn't too much in the way of orientation. The breakfast could be strengthened with better coffee.

Just brilliant!

The staff was friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible time at the hotel. We had a small terrace with a view up on the mountain which was really nice and relaxing. The village the hotel is located in is a very nice a beautiful place. Breakfast and WiFi was free, though the WiFi didn't work in our room, the hotel has a nice lounge we used while needing the internet. Some of the staff could speak English which is always a good thing (and not often the case in Portugal it seems). Over all a brilliant hotel, very much recommended for anyone who wish to spend some time in Geres!
