Hotel do Parque

We arrived around midday but the room was not ready and they stuck to the 16:00hrs check in time. On arriving in the room we were struck by the slightly odd bathroom arrangement comprising of cubicles for the toilet and the shower, but the sink was outside and seperated from the bedroom by a slatted screen which offered little privacy so this may not suit all travellers. There is no in-room safe but you can deposit valuables in the reception safe which we did without any problems. The room was clean and a good size with excellent views of Bom Jesus and the surrounding gardens. A significant drawback to this hotel is the lack of restaurant for evening meals but the barman went out of his way to supply us with a plate of cold meats and cheeses despite being rushed off his feet serving a wedding party. (There is a restaurant across the grounds but we didn't try it). The breakfast was plentiful with the usual continental choice of cold meats, cheeses, etc. Scrambled egg and bacon was available also. The hotel is immediately adjacent to the Bom Jesus cathedral and the Elevador (a funicular railway) which takes you down to the bus stop. From here, a bus runs regularly into the town centre and only costs a couple of euros each way. I don't think we're likely to go back to Braga as its attraction is limited but if we were to return I would be willing to rebook this hotel.

The location was perfect, the room was small for 3 peoples. The 3rd bed for our daughter 16 was a folding bed, too small. The bathroom has no privacy.

Overall, this is a good hotel. It’s located in a big park, one of several hotels in a group. Rooms are not big, but are OK. Bathrooms are a little strange in that the toilet and shower our part of the room, separated by glass doors. At least they’re frosted glass. Breakfast is OK. There is a nice selection of cheeses, and of course the Portuguese bread is sensational. That’s true all over the country, however. If you’re staying for more than just a couple of days, the breakfast starts disappointing in that there is no variety whatsoever from day to day. A big issue is the coffee, which is terrible.Rather than real coffee, they have a machine that uses instant coffee and dried milk. I expect better from a four-star hotel. Parking Is ample and free,, and the views are quite good. Although it is outside of the city, it is still convenient assuming you have a car. Without a car, forget it. If you want a relaxing stay outside of the city, this is the place for you.

The Hotel location and grounds were spectacular and the staff was very helpful and friendly. The room however was well used and needed some work. The A/C & heater fan was noisy, the toilet set was broken at one of the hinges and the carpet was very dirty. We contacted the front dest regarding the toilet seat. The said the would contact maintenance. I wasn't fixed before we left....overall the it was a good stay.

We really enjoyed this hotel . Rooms a very spacious with a great view of the park .

Really great location near to Bom Jesus do Monte and the hotel seemed nice, but our room itself was worn down (marks on walls, stained carpet, wood in bathroom flaking off). We were only there for 1 night and didn't really mind any of these issues since they didn't affect our comfort. Overall, our stay was fine.

Excellent accommodations, perfect stay
