Braga Truthotel

“good small hotel”

Quiet city-centre hotel on a pedestrianised street. Rooms are fine, not luxury but perfectly okay. Breakfast is good. And the manager, Claudio, was extremely helpful fixing up an English-speaking taxi-driver for us.

“Charming city centre, traditional hotel.”

Excellent city centre location, close to all Braga highlights, restaurants , bars etc. The hotel appears to have 3 parking spaces on the nearby road just outside the pedestrianised area, but they were all taken, so we found alternative, free, on street parking.

Excellent city centre location, close to all Braga highlights, restaurants , bars etc. The hotel appears to have 3 parking spaces on the nearby road just outside the pedestrianised area, but they were all taken, so we found alternative, free, on street parking. This is a small, recently refurbished, traditional hotel. Potential guests with limited mobility should be aware that there is no disabled access to Reception; it is up a steep flight of stairs. There is a lift to other floors. The rooms are quirky, but spotlessly clean and comfortable. We had a quiet room at the rear. The breakfast was generous and delicious. Staff speak good English and are very welcoming and helpful. Excellent for Braga stay and very good value.

“Quaint Hotel”

One block from the main city center in the pedestrian walking area yet not far from a side road. Also a healthy walk from the train or bus garage. We came by train and left by bus and walked it.

One block from the main city center in the pedestrian walking area yet not far from a side road. Also a healthy walk from the train or bus garage. We came by train and left by bus and walked it. The hotel I believe has 13 rooms total. Some have twin some two person bed, I'm not certain their size as we had twin beds. Large closet with four drawers and 12 hangers. A desk, tv we were to busy and never used it. We were on the 3rd floor which has stairs or elevator access. First there are stairs from the street. So it is not wheel chair accessible. We had a balcony that overlooks the pedestrian walk and most of the other buildings. We could see all the way to the Bon Jesus church. Private bathroom with a bidet, I appreciate this since I have one at home. The bath is short on places to put things so we just used our travel kits. Large full length mirror opposite the slider to the balcony. The room was kept clean as we're the towels as provided. Breakfast was served each morning . Fresh seasonal fruit well the time we were there was harvest so we had much. Fresh squeezed orange juice I saw it being squeezed! Crusty rolls, sweet rolls and some muffins. A luncheon meat and a cheese was offered. A variation of yogurts. Coffee or tea is offered. Flake cereal and milk. Just outside the hotel is a dress shop, fresh fruit market, wine bar, drug/apothecary store, shoe stores, jewelry store and one of the oldest open restaurants. This is a jewel of a hotel and the price is very reasonable less than $60/night. If you are here for sight seeing or business you can't go wrong. Book early he has regular guests and contracts with the local universities. I asked for an iron which was loaned out for the night. Bring both adapters for round sockets and basic round prongs they don't fit each other. There were both in this room so I'm glad we had both.

The hotel was clean, staff friendly and the shower was new with great water pressure. Breakfast was basic but it did the job. Great location in terms of really central to Braga. Although there is a lift to the rooms there is no disabled access to reception so anyone with mobility issues would struggle. Lovely old building but the electrics were a bit dodgy and a really old air con unit in the room tripped the electric in the whole hotel when we tried to use it. Thankfully they had a fan they could lend us as otherwise the room would have been very uncomfortable for how hot it was there in my visit.
