Located in a large old house just outside the town centre, it is almost a museum with numerous display cabinets containing a fascinating collection of old clocks and other mechanical and musical artifacts, a hobby of the owner. We had a clean comfortable room (complete with its own old tapestry) with large terrace giving an excellent view of the town and countryside. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Good buffet style breakfast.

Car park is a little limited and cramped with tricky access on to the main road but there is adequate free on street parking nearby.

If you would like to step back into La Belle Epoque, then look no further. This wonderful accommodation, rich in ambience and steeped in 19th century charm will satisfy. The building itself is magnificent and the room was spacious, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. We appreciated the complimentary Luso water and fell in love with the view from our balcony. The staff were friendly, professional and did everything to ensure we had a comfortable stay. We stayed for one night only and I wish we could have stayed longer! I highly recommend this hotel, especially if you appreciate antiques and history.

There is nothing I can think of to enter into this section.

The hotel is quite historic but very clean and simple. The room was spacious and the bed comfortable. The location is excellent in city centre of Luso village. There's a nice swimming pool as well to be used on sunny days.

The Hotel has no lift so that's a detail to think about if you have mobility restrictions. The internet even with several WiFi ID the signal was quite weak. In the room with a couple only a bottle of water was provided instead of 2x. In general was really good and recommended but some details could be improved.

Lovely family running the hotel. Spacious room. Very nice that the (charming) pool was open ahead of published schedule. Good breakfast every day. Like an antique shop (which we loved) with over seventy clocks in total! Bathroom facilities entirely new, though and everything spotlessly clean.

No operating bar in the hotel though one will be open in high season. No full curtains to keep out light which made for early wakes ups. No real complaints- it was a lovely stay .

The hotel has a very interesting atmosphere, it looks almost like a museum. The room was quite large and very clean, cool even though it was very warm outside. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was of good size, modern and with a nice shower. The breakfast buffet was quite varied for portuguese standards and very tasty as well. The breakfast lady was specially friendly and helpful. The pool was very clean and refreshing for the hot days. The bar at the pool had good prices and the staff was very friendly. The location in Luso was great, 2 minutes walking to the St. João Fountain, very near restaurants and the Buçaco Palace.

The toilette door in our room didn't close, luckily there was another intermediate door to the bedroom and it was not so uncomfortable. It would be great if there were more hooks to hang the wet towels, because they never dried and had to be changed too often as we didn't want to hang them on the nice old furniture.

A beautifully decorated hotel that made me feel like I was transported back in time. Very clean. Ample room and a balcony. Swimming pool. Walkable into town if you are interested in a restaurant, bar, or the thermal spa. Breakfast was bountiful, diverse, and delicious. Pleasant staff. Hotel ambiance was noteworthy, especially all the clocks in the breakfast room. View.

Absolutely Nothing, a super hotel that should be rated 4 stars in my opinion.

We spend in hotel four nights as my nephew participated in compition. The hotel is one of the oldest in Portugal (how we understood) so don't expect any new things, but for us it was perfect. The breakfast sattisfated us, swimming pool was great and even can enjoy with coctails (very kind girle who works in bar). The parking is safe, but hotel not guarentee that you will have space. However we spend good time and the staff was very friendly.

As the hotel is with antique furniture, it little bit smell.

The room was terrific--excellent antique furnishings, modern bath, good bed with the good memory-foam pillows. And our own spacious balcony overlooking the town! A glass of wine on the balcony, with a sunset and a good book made this a highlight of our trip. The hotel is located close to the wonderful Busaco forest. Just minutes to the park on foot or by cr. The swimming pool is protected from the breeze, surrounded by lovely trees and bushes. Even in mid-April we enjoyed a couple of refreshing dips. Last, but not least, the Alegre has an excellent breakfast at a very reasonable. The host was gracious and helpful.

Nothing.

The hotel is centrally located in Luso, walking distance to cafes etc. It is a historic property and is decorated as such—lots of charm.

The “parking lot” is tiny and very difficult to maneuver a car in; it’s on a fairly steep incline, and there is no way to turn around without great difficulty; you will have to back out unless there are some empty parking spaces. I recommend parking on the street. There us no AC, and it was an unseasonably hot day, but a kind staff person brought us a fan.

Very comfortable bed. Very clean hotel. Excellent breakfast. Friendly staff. Stunning location.

No aircon. Limited on premises parking. Smoke from the smoking on next door balcony came into our room.
