As the name implies the hotel is right by the castle and within easy walking distance of the sights and the Roman bridge. Parking is available immediately under the hotel with a lift. Our bedroom 105 was large, comfortable and well equipped. Breakfast was good. All the staff were welcoming and helpful. Very good value at €85 b&b.

We only stayed one night as part of a longer N2/Portugal tour road trip but if I could give a mark more than excellent I would. We were so very impressed with this hotel - one of the best surprises of our trip. That ibis can take an old building, bring it back to life and turn it into a hotel without charging people a load of money to stay there is fantastic. Well done Ibis :=) We won't be returning to Chaves since it was part of our longer trip but we will definitely be looking out for Ibis Style in the future. Our room wasn't enourmous, but everything we needed was in there with storage for clothes and a very comfy bed - we both had a good sleep. Bathroom was good with a big walk in shower and plenty of hot water.

Immaculate and well soundproofed rooms, the exterior is in need of renovations that seem to be in progress. Modern and very comfortable toilet and shower. Large halls with beautiful views of the spa. Very sunny small pool. Good breakfast with some problems in the service in these times of Covid19. Friendly staff

We booked a one night stay the Forte de Sao Francisco en route between Santander and the Algarve, The public rooms and bedroom are in a tastefully restored old fort. Excellent dinner and breakfast. Plenty of parking close to reception and the rooms. The staff are amazing and could not be more friendly and helpful. Where this hotel went the extra mile for us was my wife left her favorite coat in the room when we checked out The receptionist arranged for the coat t be couriered to our holiday home in southern Portugal, and then would not allow us to reimburse them with the cost, How's that for service ? We will certainly be using the Forte de Sao Francisco when we next visit Chaves, and would unreservedly recommend this lovely hotel to other travelers looking for accommodation in northern Portugal.

Currently staying for 2 nights for my birthday weekend. Hotel is super modern. Some signs and wear and tear. Very clean and staff nice. House staff really friendly. Had dinner last evening in-house resturant. Wasn't blown away, quality let it down. Waitress didn't take the order correctly. But that was a good thing. For quality of food it was expensive at €76 for 2 people, and the steak was so tough. Very bad. Chaves itself is super pretty. Would stay at hotel again but not use in-house resturant for more than breakfast.

I was stunned by this hotel. Set in rural Portugal, near the Spanish border, this spa resort is beautiful. Very modern, clean, well equipped throughout, incredibly welcoming staff and superb food in the restaurant. The hotel is the perfect mix of old and new as it is set on an old vineyard, with modern extensions which complement the original 1700's building. Outside the back side is a huge stone terrace which extends the whole width of the 1700's original building with views of the mountains and spa pool and beautiful gardens. The old part of the hotel is magnificent, but we also enjoyed the comfort of our modern room which had a huge terrace overlooking the valley. Everyone working there was friendly and efficient, and the owner spoke English perfectly. I would really recommend this place to anyone visiting northern Portugal. It made for a great relaxing break for my older parents in there 80’s to relax and enjoy the slower pace from Lisbon and before moving on to Porto on a 12 day vacation. The attention to detail and 'nothing's a problem' attitude from everyone we come into contact with is just exceptional. The breakfast is plentiful and has a great selection. We were very happy with the breakfast which offered a large variety of fruit and breads, cheese, ham, several types of jam, as well as cereal and yogurt. The evening meals are so good that you can't stop eating! The manager/owner, Fernando, is the most gracious host that will attend to your every need, while assuring your quality experience is filled with lasting memories and a strong desire to return again. In the evenings we dined in the hotel restaurant. Fernando was truly a phenomenal host, who made us feel welcome. On one of the evenings, he started us off with local sausages and cheese along with some local port from the local vineyard. He made excellent recommendations for our wines and did not disappoint with his selections. The food was delicious. We ate there every night for 4 nights, and everything kept meeting and exceeding our expectations. The beef is something that the region is known for, and it was delicious. Fernando also took us on a tour of the impressive 17th century wine making that uses filtration and gravity. The preservation of the original wine making is located in the lower area that is used for wedding receptions and large parties. The way it is incorporated into the new modern areas was impressive. I will be visiting Portugal in the future and will be re-visiting Fernando's Hotel Rural Casas Novas. We truly enjoyed our stayed here while we visited local vineyards, Chaves and Peneda-Geres National Park.

Great place to stay in the thermal NorthEast region of Portugal. Well located, has an amazing staff, always clean with a slight flower aroma in the air. Didn't have the opportunity to try the pools (indoor or outdoor) but had a great relaxing massage. And it's just a 2-minute walk to the thermal spa. I'll be back for sure.

I don't know where to start really. The whole experience at Vidago Palace was truly perfect. From every member of staff, food in all the restaurants/bar, bedrooms where I had the best 4 nights sleep that I had in ages, the grounds and the excursions. If you want a special holiday or short escape, visit here. You won't be disappointed.
