Best Barcelos Hotels

Bem localizado no centro da cidade. O Staff muito atencioso. Tudo Limpo e com bastante higiene. Só tenho um reparo a fazer que são os duches dos WC muito pequeno e com cortina que se torna muito incomodativo ao tomar banho, têm de fazer alterações, o chão também fica cheio de água.

What a wonderful week we had, returning again to the charming and friendly Bagoeira Hotel. We’ve been visiting for nearly 20 years, having found it by chance on a road trip through the north of Spain and Portugal. Now, we tend to take the easy flight to Porto and the hire a car for the 40 minute drive. Together with its excellent restaurant this modern and comfortable hotel, with its friendly and professional staff, offers an oasis of calm. It’s at the heart of Barcelos, by the large market area, which hosts one of the largest European markets every Thursday. The restaurant offers excellent traditional Minho food. As for most of Portugal, half portions are usually large enough. A large wine list, with a very good range of ports accompanies the a la carte and special daily dishes menus. Now Covid has gone, we shall be back more often to meet our Bagoeira friends again! David and Joan

Let me make it clear from the beginning that we did not sleep here. The impressions I am conveying relate exclusively to the place, the facilities we saw as visitors and the feeling we got from our visit. To begin with, this is a traditional 18th century farmhouse and is located approximately 5 kilometers from the town of Barcelos. The residence is surrounded by large private lands, which are home to vineyards, animals, poultry, water cisterns for watering the crops, horse stables, duck ponds, product warehouses, dairy and wine factories, vegetable gardens... This is a living traditional farmhouse. , which can and does work with great self-sufficiency. The large granite pillars at the entrance balcony of the residence are typically rustic, the residence is surrounded by lush gardens with flowers and manicured shrubs, fountains, running water fountains, a swimming pool, and it also has a lovely chapel. The rooms we saw were very spacious, equipped with all the necessities, but without luxury as we are used to in modern hotels. These are simply rooms in the house which are now used as tourist accommodation. Breakfast is served in a large dining room and is enriched with local products, many of which are produced by the owners. Their hospitality was excellent, full of kindness and an unmistakable attitude of genuine service. We should note that their own produced wine is wonderful and has a unique characteristic green color! I think staying here offers an excellent option for anyone wanting something more quiet and traditional, while also being ideal as a base for your visits throughout northern Portugal.

Our stay here has been fabulous. The environment is wonderful, the facilities are top class, the food is great, the rooms are spacious and comfortable but most importantly the staff are seriously good. One of the best hotels we have stayed at in Portugal.

Only 5 kilometers away from Braga, so how can there be so much peace! ???? The quality of service is outstanding! The service is very attentive, professional and discreet. We had dinner in the restaurant... Very happy! Meals, desserts, wine, quiet, peaceful music, the right tone... We like it. I highly recommend it to people who like and need silence, nature... and who have dated a 29-year marriage and helped raise 3 good children. Hot, but still so!

This hotel was part of the earlier state-owned ”Estalagem” (hostel, Inn) and potentially firstly opened in the 1970 still during Salazar or shortly later? At least this place is from times Portugal was trying to pioneer turism business (by state). Yes the location with the views is great - but that's unfortunately all (free views you'll have from the Sao Felix church as well). Many of such historic Estalagems have been closed down in recent years mainly because the new owners (after state has left the tourism business and e.g. Pousadas to Pestana) didn't want to invest and the places showed their age. So the left over Estalagems were available for last 2 centuries around 40-50€/night! Tradionally in Portugal breakfast is included and al of the Estalagems has special views and perks (like a pool). However after the pandemic the management of this place thinks rates around 100-150€ are reasonable for the same old rooms. Yes, some parts of the bathroom and maybe the AC seem to be renewed (not the hairdryer e.g.!!), but the first mistake is done at the reception (behind the desk visible to all guest as welcome). The remaining decor in the rooms is worne (not from 1975 but maybe 1995), the carpets are completely worn, though are minibar, cupboards etc. Building is in poor shape, Pools are historice Breakfast was below average and remember that -since 2023 - the comunal city want a direct contribution from all guests per day 1,5€, which is a joke: most of the streets are still noisy cobblestones - this money does direclty to wrong channels! I'd recommend not even to think any second to stay in this place except you want to invest your valued money in a truely historic experience which will at the end be a disappointment!

Más cerca de 3 que de 4. Lo más aconsejable es utilizar la caja fuerte porque desaparecen cosas que luego, cuando se reclama, aparecen milagrosamente pero en distinto lugar del que estaban y donde se había buscado insistentemente vaciando totalmente el mueble. En cuanto al resto, buena cocina servida en mesa, desayuno con buena bollería y buen café, pero solamente jamón de York y queso. También buena macedonia de frutas. Destacable también la pastelería anexa, que también es del hotel. Pastelería excelente en calidad y precio. Muy amable el personal. La ubicación no es muy buena pero solo está a unos 300 metros de la playa. El problema es que está en una calle con mucho tráfico pero las habitaciones son muy tranquilas.
