Pousada de Bragança - Sao Bartolomeu

This is a fantastic hotel. The rooms are large, comfortable and ell appointed with balconies overlooking the town and castle. The staff are friendly and helpful. The restaurant has one Michelin Star and, in my view, is worth two, while the restaurant service is the best I have ever had, anywhere. The breakfast, served in a light and airy restaurant with good views, is fully up to the best Parador standards..

In our 3 week visit, stayed at 5* hotels except this 3* and it was The Best. Room = huge; bathroom = huge with walk-in shower, good pressure; good AC; clean and comfortable; private balcony overlooking pool and the Castle. Good typical buffet breakfast with tables set with linens and has a tree growing right out of it. We enjoyed our very expensive dinner at G.

We stayed 3 nights at the Pousada for our wedding anniversary. If you like to be in a quiet, cosy place with an amazing view, this is the spot for you. Quite large room, very comfortable bed, good a/c (and we needed it, as it was cold during our stay). The breakfast room has the same amazing view over Bragança's castle, self-service with plenty of choices, very efficient service. The Michelin-star G Pousada restaurant is amazing. They offered us a smaal surprise for our wedding anniversary, which was quite nice. The only thing preventing me from rating the overall stay as "Excellent" is the bathroom, it surely news renewing, feels old and lacks some amenities you would expect in such a wonderful place.

Lovely hotel in a lovely city. My wife was travelling on business and we decided to do an overnight trip as we had a 6 hour drive each way. The check-in process was quick and simple and they offered us an upgrade on our room without us asking. The room was exactly like the pictures and had an amazing view of the castle. We have an electric car and they have free charging which fortunately was available all the time we needed as the hotel was not particularly busy. The breakfast buffet was good and the breakfast room itself is very interesting with a tree growing from the stone floor and then to the outside through a window that has been glazed around it! We didn't get to use the pool as it was out of season and far too cold, but it looked like it would be worth a visit in the summer with the kids.

It was cold weather when we arrived in the afternoon, and so was our room! Fortunately we wanted to go out for a walk to see the sights so we heated up the room while outside. Pool was closed, no other spa or other activities. Breakfast good. The restaurant is supposed to be Michelin, but quite expensive and we chose to go elsewhere. Beautiful views from the hotel. Quiet.

We stayed here for two nights in a nice modern room that overlooked the castle! The hotel also has a Michelin restaurant that we took advantage of for both nights :) great food - although the portions were a bit on the small size there were quite a few dishes! Thoroughly recommend!
