Pousada in Braganca
Pousada in Braganca – Hotel Sao Bartolomeu
Braganca, too often forgotten due to its distance from the decision-making centres, will be impossible to forget, once visited.
From the Pousada de Braganca, Sao Bartolomeu, on top of a hill of the Nogueira montain range, you have a superb view over the castle.
The Pousada de S. Bartolomeu enjoys a sensational view which stretches across the plateau lying beyond the mountains. After a visit to the city sites and monuments, a magnificent evening can be enjoyed by the pool.
Located in one of the most interesting medieval cities of Portugal, this charming hotel in Braganca combines perfectly its architecture, decoration and gastronomy with the regional culture.
We have just completed a 5 night tour of northern pousadas. I have to say overall the standard was very high. And the exceptionaly friendly helpful staff we experienced in all the pousadas helped to make our stay. We had breakfast and dinner at all the locations and i must say the food and the portuguese wine was delightful. It sounds a little picky to say the desert buffet in Braganca was dissapointing and the restaurant is ready for a little refurbishment but i suppose late october is a little out of season. overall Bravo!!
pleasant room with nice outlook.restaurant food and wine good and well priced with golden age deal.Staff very helpfull
Loved Braganca and its charm and location. The pousada is rather modern but the views and staff make all the difference in the world. We had a fun stay with the staff and enjoyed delicious regional food. We had a large and modern room but with a spectacular view of the castle and village. A great place to explore off the beaten path. Very quiet and a nice walk to the medieval section of town. We enjoyed our stay in Braganca and what scenery !!!!
Lovely views, great welcome, good accessable room…but as a wheelchair user it was a disappointment that the restaurant,bar and terrace are down steps…it would be so easy to put in alift, there is a really good space for one to the left of the stairs.
very friendly staff
nice location of the hotel
nice and spacious rooms
price/quality ratio acceptable
breakfast OK
[no other meals taken in the restaurant]
would go back to the same hotel on another visit in Braganca
This pousada has a superb view of the church and castle on the hill opposite. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the meals were excellent. The 50s/60s interior decor was interesting and there are several neighbouring villages to drive to, including Zamora over the border in Spain. There are worthwhile reductions in tarif for golden oldies like us and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
An excellent place to stay. Very calm and peaceful, but within reasonable walking distance of the town centre. We enjoyed an excellent dinner in the restaurant. I do not think the price was too high considering the location, the nice, large bedroom and the excellent restaurant.
