Hotels Near Retiro das Convertidas in Braga

The hotel does not have a lobby, the space is cramped, the interior and furniture are slightly cheaper, and the price is not the same as the four stars. Fortunately, the location of the hotel is very good, only five minutes walk from the old city. In addition, the booking information says that the hotel can provide parking spaces for guests, which is just needed for self-driving guests. When we arrived near the hotel, we found that the entire street, including the hotel's private parking lot, was blocked. It turned out to be a parade of Easter. It was impossible to stop and drag the baggage to a hotel 100 meters away. We had to park temporarily, very hard to push the luggage to sign in, ready to find the far away parking lot immediately after the formalities, sorry that the traffic police aunt has been placarding. The front desk of the hotel was not willing to help explain to the police, nor was it willing to pay for the entire parking lot, showing a way of not accepting responsibility. Knowing that the guest's parking space will be cancelled during the festival, without prior notice to the customer, it is convenient for us to make other arrangements. When things happen, they have a ”nothing to do with me” posture, despise it! In addition, the breakfast at this hotel is also very general.

Super-centric hotel, small, I imagine newly renovated since the facilities were very good, very sympathetic and pleasant all staff, the rooms (the 102 ) very well perhaps a little small, for my taste you would miss a little bigger to be more out of the ground, those that give to the pedestrian street listen some noise when people pass crying, the right breakfast has almost everything to make a good breakfast but the room is small and The hotel is very comfortable and the hotel is very comfortable.

Just back from a wonderful 10 days. Highly recommend this hotel. Very welcoming, clean and helpful staff. Every staff member we dealt with was polite. Breakfast, was bountiful and fresh. Room was large, comfortable and cleaned everyday. Pool area was very busy, but we expected that. Staff did the best to accommodate. Shame, building work was going on next door! It was VERY loud. We never ate evening meal in the restaurant. Amazing location. Lots of restaurants, shops, bars on the doorstep.

The location is perfect with Avenue de la Libertade leading to the center, restaurants, activities, etc. The room was spacious, very comfortable, nice bathroom with an exceptional shower cubicle. The service was normal, nothing more. We didn't eat there so no comments, except for the very average room service sandwich, not even a few crisps to go with it, untoasted bread. Really insufficient, does not correspond to the hotel. Otherwise, everything is perfect. We recommend and we will surely come back if we pass Braga again.

Beautiful historic building. Parking was super easy and convenient, considering the issues we’ve had finding parking in other cities in Portugal and Spain. A short walk to the old town and the location was very quiet at night. The bed was super comfortable. We like a firm bed. Best breakfast on this trip. Great variety and the sweetest fruit we’ve tasted for a long time.

We stayed 3 nights in this delightful hotel as our base for exploring the region. The top floor suites look bigger in the online photos than they actually are, yet the room was comfy and we loved hearing the bells chime. Please be aware that the elevator is narrow. The breakfast is the usual fare of yogurt, cheeses, breads, and fruits. Our western-facing windows permitted us to see the sunset over the Arco da Porta Nova. Located at one end of the main shopping street, we had lots of options of cafes and restaurants as we strolled towards the central square area. It is also directly across from a small bakery cafe. Being a university town, we arrived just as new students were being initiated into their academic units and marching around in colorful groups singing songs until 4am, Since we had a rental car, going to Peneda Geres naitonal park was an easy drive and we enjoyed hiking and then returning to the hotel. The hotel recommends the Park Center (R. Cardoso Avelino 25, 4700-219) which is a short (10 minute) easy walk slightly uphill to the hotel. In October, the Park Center was mostly empty and quick to get in and out.
