Overall Ratings & Reviews Estalagem de Monsaraz

Peaceful

Who wouldn't want to stay in a cottage at the foot of a castle? This was an AMAZINGLY beautiful hotel on the side of a steep hilltop, right beside a medieval castle. IT was so peaceful and serene! the view out over the valley was breathtaking. It felt like we were at a retreat, in all the best ways. Our room was simple but well equiped, clean and full of character. The electrical connections and wifi met the needs without being intrusive to the character of the room. Breakfast was simple but completely adequate - and it fit in with the character of the property. There was nothing at all that needed to be changed for this property. We would LOVE to go back again and highly recommend it.

This hotel was gorgeous and comfortable. Very clean and nice location that you can drive right up to with great parking. The free breakfast was decent. Issue with the fire alarm going off in the middle of the night while we were there, but pretty sure that was a one-off issue.

Magical property in a magical town! Highly recommend it! Beware travelers with large luggage- steep stairs, so consider packing light.

This was a very beautiful place to stay, the gardens and view around the place was wonderful more oof bed and breakfast feel than a hotel feel Loved it !!

A tremendous find on our short driving tour of Portugal. The location was stunning and the staff could not have been nicer. Highly recommend this gem.

Such an amazing place with lovely staff. It’s like stepping back in time. If you’re looking for pure luxury then maybe it’s not ideal but if you want a lovely genuinely beautiful place with a slow pace of life and the most amazing scenery, this is it. We missed the restaurant sadly but there are plenty to choose from, even though the place is really quite small. The shops are superb with local goods. Just amazing. Thank you!

We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The receptionist (Anna) was very helpful and knowledgeable giving us some great tips and benefit of her local knowledge. Our room was very comfortable and clean, the swimming pool area was lovely with fantastic views. Free on street parking is available outside the hotel. From the hotel you can walk into town, but be aware if you are walking impaired or need a wheelchair then there are some rough cobbled streets and some steep inclines into the town of Monsaraz which could be challenging. The breakfast at the hotel was also very nice. We will be returning to this hotel.

We stayed for three nights at the Estalagem. It is nicely located in the center of Monsaraz. The receptionists were very friendly and helpful.

Amazing views and lovely swimming pool to relax. Friendly staff comfortable bed nice stay

Staff welcoming, Room comfortable and clean, Beautiful site with awesome view, breakfast included. We've appreciated our stay.

Wonderful stay, beautiful location. Very friendly and helpful staff. The room was nice and spacious. The only thing that was missing was a kettle and complementary coffee or tea. Overall we had an amazing experience and we recommend the Estalajem de Monsaraz .

Nice quiet location

I hate to downrate businesses, but am afraid that I need to with this hotel. Monsaraz is a pretty little town and a very pleasant place to spend a relaxing day or two. Estalagem de Monsaraz nearly works, but the details made it the least pleasant hotel of our two weeks in Portugal. Upon arrive it was clear that the reception person was ill. She was doing her best, but clearly she didn't feel well. We got our key and went to the room. It was a (slightly) higher price room as it had a view. Nothing really wrong with the room other than it was in a very old building and was physically a bit difficult with a tiny bathroom that had stairs both down and up to it. The real problem was that it STUNK.....clearly a bad sewer problem that had been addressed in the past by putting a fan in the bathroom that was always on. It didn't work. No matter how nice a place is....the stench of sewage takes the pleasure out of it. It was okay as far as cleanliness, the public rooms are small but pretty. The breakfast was okay.

An amazing hotel nestled in the gorgeous area of Monsaraz. Best beds in all of Portugal! Rooms are thoughtfully outfitted, great bathroom, a fridge, and lovely views!

Beautiful location. Difficult to navigate due to the stones and steepness.

Amazing ancient property (stone walls 30 cm thick) built into the hillside rock and retrofitted into a hotel with an awesome garden and view over the valley below.

Nice property with excellent staff. Great views from some of the rooms. Good breakfast. The property could need some maintenance ( stains on the ceiling from leakage, not closing doors). Overall very nice because of location and staff quality.

Uma grande surpresa todo o espaço da Estalagem. quarto, vista ..recomendo vivamente! Voltarei.!

A localização do hotel é excelente. O café da manhã é bom. O quarto e banheiro têm bom tamanho. Alguns banheiros tem banheira e outros tem box. A piscina é excelente com uma vista maravilhosa para o pôr do Sol. Minha única ressalva é sobre a acessibilidade. Há muitas escadas para acessar os quartos. Para pessoas idosas como foi o nosso caso houve muita dificuldade para transportar as malas. Não possui restaurante para almoço e jantar. Há um mini bar que funciona até as 20h e serve apenas lanches.
