Accommodation
Pousada Viana do Castelo
JG4 rating
Our first pousada boasts one of Portugal’s best views, looking out over the waterfront city of Viana do Castelo, the Lima River, the Atlantic Ocean and the surrounding mountainous landscape, with the nearby basilica dominating the skyline. Located atop the Monte de Santa Luzia and designed by architect Miguel Ventura Terra, its retained stately features beautifully combine with modern facilities. The panoramas from the outdoor swimming pool are stunning, and there is also a billiards room, welcoming bar and restaurant, luxurious spa (treatments are available at an extra cost), lovely verandas and spacious bedrooms with free Wi-Fi.
Conímbriga Hotel do Paco, Condeixa a Nova
JG4 rating
Nestled near the ruins of Conímbriga, the foundation of this historic hotel dates back to the 14th century and has provided a place of rest to past kings and members of European nobility. While the main building was largely destroyed during the French Revolution, it was built back up in the early 1900s and boasts a classical décor. You can expect a garden, outdoor swimming pool, calming spa with an indoor pool, sauna, Turkish bath and Jacuzzi (treatments are available at an extra cost) and relaxing bedrooms with a flat-screen TV, minibar and complimentary toiletries. Although this property is no longer officially part of the pousada group, it is still a must-stay and in keeping with the theme of the tour.
Pousada Castelo de Alcácer do Sal
JG4 rating
Housed in a medieval castle that once was nearly impenetrable with over 30 25-metre towers, our last pousada is situated in the pretty town of Alcácer do Sal, with peaceful views of the Sado River. After busy days of sightseeing, the elegant bedrooms offer a wonderful space to unwind, complete with a TV and free Wi-Fi, while other facilities include a restaurant, bar, cloister terrace and outdoor swimming pool with plenty of sun loungers and surrounded by gardens. The pousada is also home to the Archaeological Crypt, a fascinating underground museum which documents 27 centuries of local history.
