Melia in Serra da Estrela from AU$229

"Very close to the heart of downtown. Clean hotel and friendly staff"

"Very friendly staff. If you tend to feel claustrophobic, might not be the best option of accommodation since there is no windows by design."

"Amazing experience at this hotel. We stayed for two nights. Breakfast was great and had GF options for our celiac daughter. "

"Views"

"Great staff. Lovely pool. Great views over river "

"All the hotel staff, and especially Helena, were friendly and helpful. The rooms are uniquely decorated in a cool and unique ‘marble library’ motif. The shower works great and the bed is comfortable. The location is convenient to the university and the rail station. One critique: the water closet is in a separate room (good) but the door and wall are clear glass, floor to ceiling (not good unless you’re an exhibitionist). "

"Very helpful staff! Thanks a lot for umbrella and taxi in this raining morning! :)"

"Stunning private location and venue. We didn’t get much views of the valley from our Turrett room but it was nice to have our own balcony. The AC in the room isn’t that efficient at cooling but other than that, everything was perfect"

"Great quiet getaway for my husband and I without the kids. The spa was majestic and the staff was amazing. A great place for quiet and serenity. "
