This modern hotel is in a very old stone building. The rooms are beautiful and big. Parking is convenient, right across the street. Our GPS took us under the arch; don't do that. Stay to the left or go around again in the very narrow streets. Breakfast is wonderful and includes both hot and cold choices. This is a central location, so you can walk to all historic sights.

Unique in Viseu

Right in the centre of old town the hotel is actually built into the fortress/city wall. Room was spacious, clean and beds comfy. Areas of the hotel felt almost like a living museum. Certain areas are in need of a refresh (i.e. hallway carpets) but this would not stop me from staying again in such a unique property.

We liked everything about the property - location, staff, restaurant options, parking, etc. However, the air conditioner was not working properly and even though the staff tried to get it going, it was never resolved. Our room was so hot, no matter what anybody tried to do. We finally shut it off completely and opened a window until a cat appeared in the window in the middle of the night. :/
