Old world charm is everywhere in this beautifully restored mansion (and we are picky custom home builders!) The staff was so friendly and accommodating with a large and varied breakfast. Peaceful and quiet with a modern flair in the heated floor (wife's favorite part) bathroom and large shower area. We would definitely stay there again. Easy parking on the grounds and easy 15 minute drive to Lamego, which was one of our favorite cities to explore in our 3 week trip to Portugal! Good access to wine tours and a peaceful setting. Go, relax, unwind....

We never found the billiards room and bar area, but we didn't ask, so that's on us. You will need a car to go to dinner and to see the areas outside the small village.

The staff were wonderful! Always obliging and very accommodating. The use of the main house for dining and support from the kitchen staff. The breakfast terrace was lovely .The pool and gardens are excellent.

No house keeping in the rooms. The poolside WC facilities were filthy. The breakfast was quite mediocre apart from the lovely croissant, bread, jam and melon. The orange juice was diluted and heavily sweetened (which is a real pity for Portugal that produces great oranges). The Italian coffee machine was playing up and wasn't particularly any good... and again some proper Portuguese coffee would have been miles better and most welcome!!

We loved the beautiful restored house!! Staff welcomed us warmly with a glass of port!! Lalim was as bit off the beaten track but we enjoyed the rustic old town. We got a list of recommendation of what to do in the area and where to eat. We had supper in a lovely restaurant in the town next door. Breakfast was excellent with a variety of breads, cheeses, ham and fresh baked pastries. Lovely fruits. Good wi-fi. Super clean.

Would have been nice if there had been a kettle and a fridge.

Loved the breakfast and the fresh fruit that was in a basket on our room. Linen was quality.

There was nothing yo dislike

the dining room was set up with everything you could imagine for breakfast . The selection was so vast we didnt need to eat until dinner.

The only suggestion i have is to have a kettle in the room for a late night cup of tea or coffee. i might have been able to ask for one as they did provide ice when asked but I didn't try

The rooms, the grounds and the staff were all amazing. The breakfast was exceptional. Raquel in particular was incredibly helpful and wonderful. Lalim was a great base to experience the Entrudo de Lazarim.

Our room was beautiful and spacious. The amenities were very nice and the breakfast was very good. We loved the old world feel and decor. This was a very beautiful venue.

Everything was great. I would have enjoyed access to coffee prior to breakfast. 😎

Lovely old house beautifully restored on a large property. It felt like we were staying in a small castle. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. We read earlier reviews about the lack of restaurants near Lalim so we advance booked a dinner at the hotel. It was terrific, including the wine and the dessert. Staff were very friendly. Lalim is a bit off the beaten path and not on the Duoro, so this location may not be for everyone. We found the small town charming.

Beautiful old manor house, lovely room with a modern bathroom. Great breakfast

The signage outside was covered by ivy, so we missed the entrance and took some time to find the property again. There is a portable sign which could have been placed outside

The highlight of our vacation. I wish I could have spent more time here. We were made to feel truly welcome. This is a very special place. The rooms , the grounds and oh my what a delicious decadent breakfast. Also of note- the fresh cherries were the best I’ve ever had.. Thank you!

Don’t change anything!
