The rate was so pricey, but I'd like the location. It's quiet and very closed to the sanctuary. The room is very spacious which was well fit to 4 people. The room was generally clean. However, the carpet, which look dated and stained, needs to be upgraded. Breakfast was included. It was simple, and not having many choice.
The best of the hotel is the location!!! Across the street you have the Virgin! Love it!!! The personal is very nice and loves to help you! The food at the restaurant is not sooo good, but is ok. I hate the pillow, it was hard and uncomfortable.

When we arrived at the Hotel the gentleman at the reception desk was very pleasant and helpful. There is an elevator in the hotel. We didn't have to climb stairs which for me with my arthritic knees is very important. Our room was clean, well furnished and warm. The hotel location couldn't have been any better. It is across the street from the Sanctuary and within walking distance to the bus station, about 6 blocks. The included breakfast was very good with a hot beverage machine that offered about 6 different choices.
We had a wonderful time in Fatima and like the very close proximity of the hotel to everything. We went to do the rosaries and procession for 2 nights and even though it finished late, it helps that the hotel is just walking distance and just across the Basilica. We also like the buffet breakfast they serve and the cleanliness of the place. We are grateful to George for being so accomodating and helpful and even allowed us to exchange some US dollars to Euros since banks were closed when we arrived. He's such a nice guy and always courteous and helpful. If ever we go back to Fatima, we will definitely stay in this hotel again.
Also, bus station is walking distance from the hotel.
Stayed here with family. It's about 15 minutes walk, with luggage in tow, from Rede bus station to hotel. No complicated twist and turns to get to hotel. Will not hesitate to stay here if we go on pilgrimage again.
Rooms were clean. Wifi in the rooms were iffy. Hotel amenities were basic. Service from staff was uneven. Some were very unfriendly and unhelpful. One was particularly helpful and courteus
Very friendly and courteous staff. Helpful with answers to our enquiries. Even re-booked flight through receptionist. Good breakfast provided. Will comeback.
It is a very nice, well-kept hotel and as close as one can be to the actual Fatima churches and other facilities. The room price was very good, too. We were very pleased with it as a whole.
We had a great time at this hotel. We had our elderly mother that needed a wheelchair and Jorge went out of his way to help us get a wheelchair for our mother to use. A special thanks to Jorge he helped us tremendously during our stay he always greeted us going in and out of the hotel. Thanks again Jorge for your help.
Enjoyed our stay at the Cruz Alta Hotel. The hotel is clean and well kept. The location of the hotel is perfect if you plan to visit the Fatima Shrine as it's located directly across the street from the entrance to the shrine.
