"The location of Pousada de Marvão is hard to beat. You can drive your rental car to a small parking lot just down the street from the Pousada. The staff were lovely—friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very generous. The restaurant has windows all along the back wall, giving a view of the valley below and into Spain! The beds were firm. The shower water got quite hot, as we like it. The pousada has lovely sitting areas, near a fire place and near a large window, but we didn’t have time to enjoy them. We ate at the hotel restaurant for dinner and it was excellent."

"Once in a while you come upon a property you are hesitant to share because it will get "discovered" and in the process change what you enjoyed so much. However, hospitality is a business and if you don't share a great experience they may not be there for everyone. In this case, this property is so special it deserves to be discovered by all. Do not hesitate and just book it! The pool, views, service, food, and overall property are fantastic. It is also a value for the quality in the price range. We may come back to Portugal just to visit our new favorite hotel!"

"This hotel was located right in the centre of a little town and the front desk staff was so helpful. Her English was excellent and she gave us many suggestions of places to eat and even phoned over to a car repair shop for us to fix a tire. The hotel is located along a beautiful channel that you walk along to get to the local restaurants. The room was rather small but suited our needs and was very clean. Breakfast was provided and it had a variety of cold options. The hotel was only 10 km from Marvao and I would highly recommend it if staying in the area."
