This is my go to hotel every year. The best hotel around this area in Portugal. The ladies are amazing. From front desk to the cleaning staff. They will amaze you with their kidness. They go above and beyond to meet our needs. My daughter doesn't drink regular milk and they provided almond milk as soon as they found out that that is the type of milk she drinks. Breakfast is amazing and fresh. The Coffee machines are incredible. You can get a fresh beverage 24/7. The place is the cleanest you will ever find. It is deserving if a 5 * review.

This stay in Curia Hotel, was actually in the ir of 2005 i believe. But still in my memories, I remember the grandiosity of the building, the very high floor and the space mixed with stories and te years give you peace just siting, and enjoy the surrenders. Nice services, nice staff, don’t lose de massages options and the restaurant if remember a good experience

The cleaning ladies are very friendly. Carina, who is at the reception, is very friendly and very helpful, in contrast, I only have to point out the staff who were serving breakfast. I asked if I could have a table next to the window, since the tables that were prepared were all on the opposite side, they said yes, that I could take the dishes and take them to the other table. I did so, and sat down at a large table (I had only noticed these tables next to the window). When I went to get food, the two employees, who were always in the middle of the room, told me to use smaller tables. The room was quite empty, and from the number of tables prepared it was obvious that few customers were waiting, who would not use all the tables, as happened. The attitude of these two employees did not sit well with me. They could have taken the trouble to at least indicate the tables they wanted the customer to sit at (at the time I didn't notice the tables because they were on the side). They waited for the customer to change, and, in a law of least effort, they indicated that they had to change tables again. This difference in attitude from the reception to the restaurant makes all the difference in service. Very clean and heated room with regulation. Very silent.

A very modern hotel with many facilities. A little out of the way from town centre but set in a more rural/residential area. Exactly what we needed after the hustle and bustle of downtown Coimbra. Excellent breakfast and superb dinner. Very reasonable price for the type of hotel it turned out to be.

reception sympathy availability of gym access to the pool by the hall of the hotel and through the bar small lunch - only 1 variety of cheese and fiber, yogurts with inadequate conditioning

We had heard great things about hiking in the Bussaco forest so added an evening in Luso to our Portugal trip. We spent the evening at the Alegre Hotel. As others have written, it is an old world family run hotel 18 room hotel. It very much reminded me of places I have stayed in rural France. Everything about the hotel needs to be viewed in the context of what it is. The keys are old style heavy brass, the parlor spaces are rather dark with period furniture, the breakfast room walls are populated by a plethora of ticking clocks that only vaguely keep time, the rooms are high ceilinged, there is no air conditioning and heat in our room on a chilly evening was provided by an electric “wood stove” in the fireplace. All that being said, the bed was warm and comfortable, the bathroom pretty modern and clean, the view over the town from our balcony fantastic, the breakfast very good and the breakfast server very friendly. We left in the morning feeling that we had spent a pleasant evening in another era.

Very quiet hotel. Despite the magnificent building, all the staff are very close to the guests and care about their happiness. This time I stayed in a superior room with large windows. The area and direct light of the toilet are all you like. The restaurant offers a balanced buffet, exquisite breakfast and everything you want. Restaurant service and decent breakfast. The reception staff have excellent professionalism and a very friendly attitude. I recommend

Hotel familiar, num edifício de arquitetura do início dos anos 20 do século passado, a dois passos das famosas termas do Luso. Quartos espaços e camas super cómoda, com vista deslumbrante para a serra do Bussaco. Tudo super limpo e arrumado, aliás, como todos os espaços. O generoso buffet, com receitas assentes na cozinha do baixo Vouga, oferece variedade entre peixe da costa de Aveiro, e as carnes da Mealhada. O pátio emoldurado por nogueiras centenárias, dá acesso à piscina, para uns belos banhos de sol, com o cheiro puro do campo e da serra ali ao lado. Claro que não podia falta a experiência do spa termal, a visita ao parque da vila, e claro ao parque ecológico do Bussaco e à Quinta da Lágrimas. Ótimo lugar para umas repousantes férias em família!

Hotel located in a quiet area of living surrounded by pinearies, 5 minutes' drive from the beach of Mira, a good location for the rest of the people. The staff was friendly and sympathetic, and they are trying to help, however, it is visible that the hotel does not have enough staff for the number of rooms, at breakfast they cannot rest with the necessary speed, and one day they did not clean the rooms (we reserved 3 rooms). Other days the cleaning consisted of making beds and waste was not discarded. In most time the reception has nobody, because they have to support breakfast or rooms. Several maintenance problems and damage in rooms, moisture infiltration in the building (one of the rooms smells the humidity), and especially the quite dismayed pool area. The sun burned herbs, old sprayers, the pool was not cleaned, and the TV was not ready in one of the rooms. I couldn't rest because during the night there is a constant noise of ventilation, or perhaps washing machines, defeating all the goal of this hotel that is to go to a quiet area. The rooms are modern and the wi-fi works well, but need more investment, staff and maintenance to justify the 4-star category and the price requested.

A gift for the senses. We thought the hotel concept was fabulous and I don't really agree with renovating the facilities too much, only what is essential, since it would lose charm and increase the price. We consider the current quality/price ratio to be very good. Great choice for the joy of the eyes, for rest and for a walk through the forest, which, together with the climate and the moderate tourist attraction at this time of year (December long weekend), make it a very special place. Shared rooms are an enjoyment for the senses, as we said before, and the rooms, despite any damage they may present, do not leave you indifferent either. And the easy and free parking next to the hotel is another incentive. The staff's attention to any questions or concerns, together with their explanations about the hotel and its history, makes you feel welcome and well treated. Returning is essential.
