Great place and location! They do have paid parking for the hotel for 5 euro, but the staff told us there is a free parking lot, which typically has open spots. Both lots are a bit of a distance, but we parked in the free lot and walked for our whole time there.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Very clean and comfortable hotel! Everything went smoothly from check in (we were able to store our luggage in the breakfast room) to check out. Our room was spacious and we were able to adjust the heat pump for heating the room. The continental breakfast had a nice variety of pastries, yogurts, cheese and meats. I enjoyed being able to have a large freshly brewed coffee. I would happily stay here again. The hotel is in a good location for walking to the old city.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
This a nice, clean hotel in a central but quiet area. Staff were fantastic. I only give it 4 stars, however, as there is no elevator above the first floor. The property clearly states this on its website but it's still a pain to drag luggage up the stairs. There's also no coffee in the room.

Gioconda

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
The smell of cigarettes perforated through the stairwells and into the guest rooms, particularly on the first floor. There is no elevator, which can be an issue if you have a lot of luggage. Staff are not willing to help out with luggage because they claim to be a 2-star hotel. Will not return to this hotel.

Disliked: Staff & service

Meh!

Property is dated and old. Typical Portuguese rudeness during front desk interactions, but not bad. Property states it has laundry facilities, not true. It also states it is wheelchair accessible, which is not true. There is no elevator and there are stairs to go anywhere in the property.

Boa opção próximo ao centro histórico.

Grata surpresa, bem melhor do que as fotos sugerem. Localização ótima, fizemos todo centro histórico a pé. Não tem estacionamento no prédio, porém não foi um problema, pois tem possibilidade de parar o carro descarregar bagagem na porta no hotel e eles tem parceria com estacionamento coberto bem próximo, por 5 euros a noite. Café da manhã gostoso, com as opções básicas e café estilo nespresso. Elevador chega apenas no primeiro piso, para nós não foi problema. Para mim só faltou um frigobar no quarto.

Excelente opção no centro histórico de Guimarães

Bom hotel, bem no centro histórico de Guimarães. Equipe atenciosa e prestativa, hotel muito limpo e bem conservado. Apenas um detalhe a ser levado em conta: o prédio tem 3 andares e não possui elevador, então, se você tem problemas de locomoção ou para subir com suas malas pela escada, pode não ser uma boa opção.
