Wow! Just, wow! We are back from 3 nights at Belmonte and are already looking for a return trip. The pousada is a beautiful historical building set in a magical location outside the Serra da Estrella park. Views from the pousada are spectacular and the night skies are filled with stars. The quiet and peaceful atmosphere was perfect for total relaxation. The pousada offers spacious common areas (indoors and outdoors) and bedrooms and a small pool area. The dining is top-notch with a gourmet menu and attentive service. The front desk was courteous and helpful throughout our stay, suggesting hiking routes and local sites. Book your trip now!
Lovely location , we have stayed there 3 times now and it is still stunning. Convenient for the motorway and close to some beautiful country. Food is excellent if slightly pricey. Belmonte village worth a visit also.
Beautiful hotel, great rooms and view. Wonderful atmosphere, very romantic for couples.
Difícil encontrar um conjunto de serviços que agrade e mereça um melhor comentário. Como deixámos escrito no V/livro. Felizmente que a crise não chega a todo o lado, pois tudo o que nos é possível desfrutar transpira calma, generosidade, simpatia… profissionalismo activo. Bem hajam.
When I came home from Portugal I described Belmonte as the place to go the day before you lost your mind. It had that special serene quality which included many places that a person could curl up with a good book. I am still raving about the mushrooms we were served in the dining room. They needed little else but a glass of wine and their ever present astounding bread. If you don’t want an itinerary, book it.
