Wow modern very nice designed new hotel. Especially the bar and breakfast room they are very cozy furnished. We didn't want to move from there:-). We stayed 1 night in standard rooms but the hotel has also more room categories and even villas. In the courtyard is outdoor swimming pool with sun beds and also SPA with indoor pool and small fitness center. We were pleasantly suprised with this hotel especially therefore the city Covilha is not very nice and we didn't find it attractive for tourist. On the other hand it is good starting or end point after visiting mountain area, which is very nice. In the evening we have got aperitif in the beautiful hotel bar and Gourmet 4 Seasons dinner which was delicious and we had a chance to travel the region through pairing wine & food in this exceptional hotel. The hotel staff in each department is extremely polite and one of the reception even is Portugal speaks Czech, it was nice moment for us also.
Located on the outskirts of the historical city of Covilhã, the Hotel Covilhã Dona Maria Affiliated by Meliá, offers stunning views over the Cova da Beira valley and surrounding mountains.

The location and the views are absolutely incredible. The staff were very friendly and fun to deal with. The room was clean with the best view I have ever had from a hotel room!
Beautiful scenery, full of life! The people are extremely friendly and welcoming. The food is delicious, the souvenir shop at the top of the mountain has a lot of good things, and the prices are a little higher than in the city center. In the shop at the top of the mountain you can buy sheepskin products, leather and wool slippers, furs, and reasonable prices; you can also taste meat products, various sweet wines, cheeses, which is why these products are a little more expensive, but the price is only 1-2 euros more expensive. Of course, there are wines and cheeses in the small grocery stores in the city center, but it is not possible to try them. Unless you are very familiar with the taste of these products, it is better to taste them first. There is actually a Michelin restaurant here Laranjinha, which has been awarded Michelin since 2018, and the price is not expensive at all. It is very difficult to make a reservation online, but if you go to the site and arrive at 12:30 noon or 7:30 pm when it opens, you will always have a seat. Covilhã puff pastry dumplings, lamb shank stewed rice, cod scrambled eggs, and steak are all worth trying

An amazing small city located on a mountain.
An amazing small city located on a mountain. The city is separated into an older part and a more modern part which is located at the lowest part of the mountain. The city has a plethora of murals and street art and you can download a dedicated application where you can find where all the murals are located and have a self-tour. The old part of town has amazing buildings and you can get lost by walking in the small traditional streets. The restaurants are of high quality and all the food we tasted was simply amazing. I will definitely be coming back :)

Unfortunately when we were there for a 3 night stay the weather was poor on two of the days so I might say the stay was too long. Didn't visit the city at the base of the mountain. The village where the chalets are situated was very quiet with not much going on, we spent most of the spare time in the hotel which was nice.

The Pousada is perfect for a relaxing break. The views are incredible. The service is very good, made to feel welcome. You need to drive back down the mountain for restaurants etc but the Pousada has everything you want. The air is fresh and all you can hear are the birds, superb.

A great city to use as a base to visit nearby mountains and go hiking. Also, if it's the right season for cherries, head to the market and get some. This area is home to the famous Cerejas da Gardunha you see in every supermarket in Portugal :)

O’Serrano de Repleto de Magia was fantastic for dinner!!!
O’Serrano de Repleto de Magia was fantastic for dinner!!! Covilha otherwise is a lovely, slightly sleep city in the off season filled with very friendly talkative locals. Free parking at the city square until December 2020 so that was great!
The guest house is attached to the Pena D'Água Boutique hotel, and we used the hotel's reception facilities and the excellent bar. The staff we very friendly and helpful. Special mention for Nuno in reception and Luis in the Bar. Our room was very spacious and attractively decorated and had a had a great view of the town and the surrounding countryside. We'd like to come back again in better weather, stay longer and try the hotel.
The inside pool was amazing and the kids love it. The gym was great. The rooms where large and clean. The parking was good, both in the garage or the outside. The location is really good, away form the tight center of Covilhã but a small drive form everything, including going to the Serra da Estrela to look for snow :).
It’s a pity we were only there for one night because the hotel was beautiful, everything was perfect especially the staff . We had secure parking for our motorcycle and a lovely breakfast, the decor was a nice change from the usual sterile looking hotels in Spain and Portugal .
