Breakfast was very good: hot meal, coffee, juices and fresh bread. I’m not a big eater though, so can’t vouch for those fans of continental style. Location couldn’t be better, complete immersive experience in the medieval times. Room was spacious and quiet, with cabinets full of warm blankets and pillows. Bathroom is clean, all essentials were there. Sr. Manuel is courteous and accommodating. We felt welcomed in the hotel.
This 3-star hotel is located in Portagem, on the banks of the Sever River, where guests can enjoy a public pool. It has free WiFi and views of the historic village of Marvão.

A small six-room hotel in a very interesting location. In Marvao district, the hill top town is not far to visit (great place to visit but after a couple of hours you have 'done' it). Beside railway lines and almost opposite a wonderful old station, but no problem with noise as the train line from here to Caceras in Spain closed down more than 12 years ago. Close to great Roman excavations in Portugal and over the border in Spain and a number of small towns. The hotel was spotless. The host provided splendid breakfasts and was keen to find something extra every day. Good sized swimming pool. Good place to stay
Situated in the slopes of Serra de São Mamede Natural Park, 11km from Portalegre, Vigias -Eternal Landscapes offers an outdoor pool and panoramic views over the Alentejo landscape.

Beautifully scenic, tranquil location. We stayed in the Loft, which included a hot tub on the balcony overlooking lovely rolling hills. The Loft was spacious, clean and comfortable. Our host, João, was very friendly, accommodating and helpful in recommendating restaurants and local destinations. He delivered a continental breakfast to our room the next morning at a prearranged time. We enjoyed walking around the extensive grounds and seeing the sculptures throughout the property.
Located on the slope of Marvão, Quinta d’Abegoa is just a 5-minute drive from Marvão Castle. It offers spacious villas with well-stocked kitchens and barbecue facilities. Free Wi-Fi is available.

Breakfast was brought to us every day, and was lovely and plentiful. The pool area was beautiful. The gardens were so well kept and a delight to sit in. Our stay was very peaceful.
It was really quiet, which we like. There are festivals that might appeal to some people. We enjoyed the museum of archeology in the village. The village may be difficult for people with mobility challenges.

Marvao has a wonderful walled village and castle worth visiting. Not as commercial as Obidos, with fewer restaurants, shops and tourists but spectacular views from a more preserved castle with well manicured gardens.

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.

It was adventurous to drive the narrow, very narrow streets of historical Marvão. Lol. Still have PTSD. However, I wouldn't trade the stay for something more conventional.
The host was amazing, no English, but google was helpful. She was extremely friendly and warm despite waiting for us for a couple of hours... Greeted us with a local liquor. :)) after the drive it was needed. Beds were comfy, the house was very clean and cozy. Perfect locao, right in the midst of everything.
Location: Prime spot right in the heart of the Marvão.
Breakfast: Very good, with a delicious variety of fresh and hot options.
Staff: Exceptionally friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome from the moment I arrived.
Overall, a fantastic experience with a great location, delicious breakfast, and outstanding staff. Highly recommend!
