Location is fantastic for visiting the castle, and the views from the top room with private balcony were amazing!?The staff are very friendly, and helpful. The breakfast is fresh and delicious! This was our second visit, and would return if we were in the area.

Everything went very well. This is one of the most comfortable hotels in Marvão. The location and staff are both excellent. I recommend booking a room with a view of the valley — you will never forget that view!

Marvao Castle is in one sense quite primitive - do not forget that it was built approx 875-900 AD as a defence against the emirs of Cordoba. In another sense, it is one of the greatest castles I have ever seen...

Absolutely perfect!
The house is so beautiful and comfortable!
The front of the house is all in glass, with a breathtaking panoramic view!
I's so cosy and all the details made us felt so welcomed. Every bedroom had its own bath, the beds were super comfortable. You have stunning views from every room. There was a lot of space.
Outside, the house has an amazing private terrace, so comfortable to relax and enjoy the view!
The sense of peace we feel there is unique.
Irene is an excellent hostess and made us feel so welcome!
We loved everything and we want to come back!

João and the staff couldn't be nicer. João naves us several tips about the region. The "picnic" breakfast was a nice experience. if you're looking for a quiet environment, surrounded with lots of art, Quinta do Barrieiro is a great choice.

We stayed at Dom Dinis, overlooking the valley below, in December 2023. Hardly any tourists, wonderfully friendly area. Be sure to visit the church (Igreja de Santiago) of which Saramago wrote on his journey around Portugal! We ate at the excellent Varanda do Alentejo, the lamb stew was fantastic.

The castle is a must see.
The castle is a must see. The views from all directions were unobstructed and gave one the feeling of what it must have been like centuries before when the castle was used as a defensive weapon. Well worth the trip and one had access to almost the entire outer wall.

We stayed in Marvão for 3 days, 2 nights and spent the days touring around. I HIGHLY recommend taking the biking tour with Rail Bike Marvão, it's 16km through the heart of Marvão's nature.
I also HIGHLY recommend you visit the small town or Castelo de Vide.

Amazing old town and stunning castle and scenery. So quiet and relaxing. Even though we have been in the castle and museum, we intend to come back and do it all again because it was such an enjoyable experience.

Just being here gives a lift to the soul!
Just being here gives a lift to the soul! It is beautiful, everyone is so friendly, every winding street you walk down brought a smile to my face, and THAT VIEW!! You turn a corner and it takes your breath away. I walked here from Castelo de Vide and the path was well marked and gorgeous, with birds of prey hovering and I even saw what I think is an Egyptian mongoose.... Lots of beautiful arts and crafts and good restaurants. I stayed at the Estalagem de Marvao which couldnt be faulted, really beautiful and friendly. Totally recommended (tho some parts of the town walls are not for the faint hearted - but there are plenty of steps down if it gets too much for the vertiginous!).
excellent breakfast, creamy fluffy eggs! delicious watermelon yoghurt! great pastries!

This hotel is in a stunning location at the top of a mountain, approached by steep narrow cobbled streets, so be confident in your car driving ability. We were on big motorbikes and it was a challenge. Well worth it when you arrive!
Very friendly receptionist, beautiful old building, lovely breakfast.
