Book Semide Bed & Breakfast

"Everything was excellent apart from the cheap and nasty toilet paper. What a shame to provide such a poor quality bathroom paper when everything else is eo well done."

"Staff friendliness was the highlight of the stay. Great find for the budget!!"

"The food at the palace was excellent. The grounds around the buildings are beautiful and extensive. There are Kms of lovely trails through the trees."

"Beautiful property with terrific food."

"The hotel was great and a bit different with the book themed bathrooms. The breakfast was good and the ability to get drinks and cakes at other times was a nice and useful touch. The location was very central, albeit there were roadworks outside at the time of our visit. "

"Check in was great, the room was outstanding, and the gardens made for a nice stroll with a glass of wine. Extraordinary history surrounding this property."

"The staff were super friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a great location. The walk-in shower was lovely. The bed was comfortable. The air-conditioning worked well. The room was a good size. It would be good to have more hangers in the wardrobe. There wasn't a safe in the room. The breakfast was nice. The rooftop bar was great and a really nice place for us all to meet for drinks before we went out for dinner. I would definitely stay here again for the price we paid. "

"We were upgraded to a corner room with an oversized balcony looking out over the pool to the river. Spacious room, quiet, plenty of shelf and drawer space. The staff were amazing, Portuguese-friendly. Breakfast was very nice, with lots of hot and cold options including an omelet station. Location was very walkable to the Old Town, and also to the opposite side of the river and the Santa Clara monastery, plus walkways on both sides of the river."

"Overall very good, helpful and friendly staff"
