Very well located very comfortable and spotless clean
We came on the bus from Braga. Actually, there was a one-day strike and we took a taxi. We took the bus back. The bus runs infrequently and you have to buy the ticket on the bus. Once in Geres, if you don't have a car, you can find out about the trails from the tourist info center so you can get into the park. We also opted for a 4 hr tour with Carlos at Lobos Tours and it was worth the $40 to see all the parts of the park and some of the small villages and the waterfalls. He was born and raised there and has alot of knowledge of the area. One bummer of the visit was the Parque de Termas is only open intermittently and was closed when we were there. Apparently this is a problem. If you want a hot spring dip, you need to go to the Spanish border. Not far away, but need transport. It is a nice village overall.

Geres is a unique place where you can see nature in its best, there are so many attractions even on low-session, and plenty of native restaurants along all routes, i have been there for 5/6 years in a row and I am still impressed with the place as you can see my own photographs attached.

Rio Caldo on the lower edge of the park is stunning.
Rio Caldo on the lower edge of the park is stunning. Views are amazing. There are plenty of bars and cafes, and a small well stocked supermarket. It has a good public transport network. We hired a kayak twice during our stay with AML.

Don't try to go to Geres for a long weekend, it's not enough...
Don't try to go to Geres for a long weekend, it's not enough time but if that's all you have, then don't miss it! Amazing hiking and quaint villages all around. We chased waterfalls for 3 days and loved it.
The Sao Bento da Porta Aberta Sanctuary was so unique and loved the juxtaposition of the old and new churches. Stunning tiles in the new museum.
We also had a quick stop at the Vilarinho das Furnas dam. We love dams but still cool to see. A short easy walk from the dam is a cute waterfall and a perfect spot for a picnic.
Keep your eyes peeled for wild horses and shepherds with their cows and goats.
The town of Geres itself is small but I really enjoyed a quick stroll around town and found some great artisan shops to get souvenirs.

We had a fantastic time in Geres.
We had a fantastic time in Geres. The staff at Baltazar Hotel were extremely helpful and kind- especially Orlando. We had a challenging and beautiful hike and spent one afternoon with a guide who showed us so much of the park. The food and generosity of the Baltazar staff was wonderful. We would come back for a longer stay next time and recommend to anyone.

Very nice picturesque location, beautiful lake at the bottom...
Very nice picturesque location, beautiful lake at the bottom of the surrounding mountains near the hotel. Hotel was very clean, and big. I was pleasantly surprised. Polite man at the reception when we got there, very attentive and prompt when requests were made. My only advise to anyone checking out in the early hours, e.g. around 03.30am is to allow extra time because there may not be anyone readily available as they will be carrying out other tasks (as the polite lady mentioned when the bell at reception wasnt attended to with the usual promptness). Other than that, extremely wonderful stay

The place is super comfy, very nice bed and the pillows are not hard and massive like most hotel rooms. I stayed in room 12 and the views are absolutely stunning, I couldn't believe how lucky I was! I had the whole view of the church and city, best bedroom in the place! There's a cute picnic area with view as well, nice kitchen with kettle and microwave and paid coffee machine... I would have loved to stay more, but if I go back, I'm definitely staying there again!
Breakfast was delicious and there were many options as fresh fruit, different types of bread, muesli, yogurth, crossaints, cake, etc.
The hotel is located in the middle of Geres and you can reach it by bus which was great for us, because we didn´t have a car.
The staff was very friendly and the hotel was clean.
I felt at home with the people who welcomed you warmly at the hotel. All staff are nice and don't hesitate to help you if you have a question. The restaurant has the best chef in Portugal. There is much to do. You can eat, swim a lot and take the bus. You can take the bus to the north and easily walk to the south.
We loved our stay. Very close to some of the most beautiful walks in Gerês. Our host was super friendly and helpful. The room was comfy and spacious, and the living area had a really nice fire. Very good breakfast, loved waking up to the smell of freshly baked pastries.
