It was great staying up by Bom Jesus, as it gave us time to enjoy it at quieter, less crowded times and in different lights...dawn, full sun, and sunset. Though Braga city was well worth visiting it felt good to be 'away from it all'. We had two good dinners from the a la carte menu, and breakfast was more than adequate, if not very hot. Staff were all helpful and friendly, parking was easy and safe and we felt the stay was excellent value. Bed was a bit on the firm side, but that's also a matter of taste. No hesitation in recommending, but do make ax dinner reservation as groups can fill the restaurant up. The pool on the nearby hotel site was an added bonus.
