Don”t bother

It would have been great if we were elderly Portuguese people, the staff were rude we were not welcome there as an english couple. Its a place for older Portuguese people to have an affordable holiday. Don't sell to the english

INATEL Hotel was a fantastic stay! The staff was warm and welcoming, making check-in effortless. My room was spotless, comfortable, and well-equipped, offering a peaceful retreat. The location was perfect, with stunning views and easy access to local attractions. Breakfast was delicious, with plenty of fresh options to choose from. The amenities, including common areas, were clean and well-maintained, adding to the relaxing experience. Overall, I had a wonderful time and highly recommend INATEL Hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. I’ll definitely be returning on my next trip!
Ashley, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Staying at this hotel had versions of "The good, the bad & the ugly"! The good being the location snd breakfast. The bad was that it took over an hour to be checked in by 1 receptionist- it was check in time so should of had more staff on. The ugly being there was an major issues with flies (coming from outside , have no problem with nature) but the issue was it took 2 days for them to sweep up the piles of dead flies that were all over reception.

Karen, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Absolutely great place to stay. Location ideal. Close to the action in the Old Town but far enough away to not be affected by the noise. Easy walking distance to everything. Great historic location. Updating Balcony views were great. Breakfast was more than acceptable. Great variety. Only complaint we had was no internet for 2 of the 4 days we were there? Not good. But I would come back.
