The origin of the city of Guimarães is established around the 10th century, although its history dates back to the Copper Age. In this century, the Countess Mumadona Dias, widow of Hermenegildo Mendes, ordered to build a monastery; then, the first population core, which gives rise to this city, appeared. You can also visit other building of equal importance, such as the city walls, the castle of Guimarães or the Church of Nuestra Señora de la Oliveira. The ancient part of the city was classified as a World Heritage Site by Unesco.

On my last day, the hotel welcome in, what looked like two full football teams (average age 14), and which sounded like a stadium of fans. Nonetheless, my room was quiet and comfortable. The room was spacious with … more

“I recommend”
The hotel is really clean. Rooms are very big and it is also great location near the city centre and shopping mall. There is also grocery near. Only minus is very small breakfast. The hotel has modern rooms. Overall it is really worth the price. I recommend.

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
