Day 6 - The national park Peneda Geres should not be missed even at a glance. Pousada do Geres is strategically located, gave us the feeling, that it has its special character perfectly blending with the countryside scenery. When we were at the reception, i can feel this special character of the hotel. It could be a former historical building... More

Pousada Sao Bento has been built in a rustic style of a hunter’s lodge within the National Park Peneda Geres. We visited in May. This hotel will please people who appreciate quietness and calm, astonishing nature, like to walk or just stare into the beauty of the surrounding countryside; from the hotel you have excellent vistas. We stayed 3 nights... More

A married couple in our early fities, we are keen on experiencing nature (walking and touring), food, wine and people. We spent 4 nights in the Pousada Sao Bento, from July 26 to July 30 this year, and we couldn't be happier with our stay there. We were booked in on a discount reservation, but all the same we recieved... More

I stayed one night at this pousada and it is very different from the others, that mostly are historical. This is a "nature" pousada: the building is nice and comfortable but not "special", instead of the view you can enjoy from the hotel: really unforgottable. You will never be tired to look at such wondaful scenary. As regard as the... More

The view over the river Cávado and the Caniçada dam is truly indescribable. We inform that there are 4 different segments of Pousadas: Charm, Historic, Historic Design and Nature. Pousada do... More

The pousada de Geres is a "Naturalistic" pausada as opposed to the "Historical" pausadas. The hotel structure in itself is nothing particular (don't get me wrong it is well above standard) but the location and the view are simply breathtaking. The room was confortable and the breakfast more than adequate, the swimming pool was not as large as the ones... More

A lovely hotel set upon a hillside overlooking the nearby dam. Well placed for visiting the Parque Nacional da Penede-Geres. An expensive Restaurant, but try the "Bull Tenderloin" - delicious. More
