The location is so convenient to all that the Peneda-Geres National park has to offer….excellent hiking and panoramas, and beautiful scenic drives. The view from the hotel is gorgeous as it looks into the Cavado River. The staff was professional, efficient, super kind and helpful from the moment we checked in. Joao, the desk, provide so much helpful information about the park upon check-in. Diana in the dining room was a delight! Even with a packed house for dinner she kept her happy attitude and performed her job well. The spa facility at the hotel offered Turkish bath, sauna, cold shower, and jacuzzi, we enjoyed all and found them them to be clean and functioning properly. Delightful! My wife and I also took advantage of the massage services and were pleased with the massages we received from Mariana. We could not have been more pleased and satisfied with the property, the staff, the room, and the spa. Will DEFINITELY return to Hotel Sao Bento..Thank you to the staff for a job well done!

The spa area was amazing with beautiful views. In summertime there’s also a great outside pool.
The views all in all from every location in the property were amazing.
The restaurant was superb in both breakfast and dinner. Don’t miss the little sign in the breakfast that allows you to order special meals.
The rooms are huge and you’re able to cook easily if you wish.
There are many good hiking trails around and it’s not so far from the national park.

The wonderful views and privacy …. Whilst it lasted,
The property is set up for honey moon couples - much of it is over the top and kitsch but it has a certain charm
When the neighbouring property is unoccupied it is simply brilliant … but when, as in our experience, a family with young children arrive everything changes. Having noisy kids jumping into the pool only a metre away destroyed any notion of tranquillity. If the property was not shared it would be simply blissful
The access is terrifying … you will wish you had paid for your car hire company insurance excess!
What better way to unwind after a day of sightseeing than at a health and wellness spa? Spa hotels focus on maximum relaxation for their guests, providing luxury features like hot tubs, thermal pools, and professional massage services. Some spa hotels use mineral-rich water pumped straight out of the ground, helping to maintain and restore good health.
Comfortable room layout for a group of 3 (1 shared bed, 1 single bed with a door). Lovely little view of their garden. Essentials like soap / shampoo samples, hairdryer, AC, mini fridge, TV, parking space are provided. No kitchenette but a generous free breakfast every morning.
What a charming place and charming people! A little (steep) way out of town, but bright and cheerful with a good view, and the possibility of an arrangement to use a nearby swimming pool. The included breakfast was relaxed, plentiful and quite adequate preparation for a day out walking.
The location is ideal, you get stunning mountain views from all terraces and the breakfast room.
Staff is friendly and accomodating.
Relaxed hostel atmosphere. Will definately come back!
Room was nice, it was spacious and renovated.
Breakfast was good even though it had some weird restrictions about some things not being available to everyone god knows why.
Beautifully located in the middle of nowhere -
You breathe in the fresh air and are only surrounded by nature. :) Perfect for a relaxing and quiet time.
The receptionists were friendly, breakfast was more than OK but is only served starting from 8:30, if you are planning a long hike I'd probably leave earlier than that.
Rooms were clean and had enough space for storage, beds were comfy. Shower areas also clean, towel included. It is a traditional youth hotel and in that way basic.
The location could not be more central to Vila do Gerês.
The hotel is beautiful, the room was huge and the bed was really spacious and comfortable. I slept like a baby and I'm quite fussy about beds and mattresses.
The shower/bath was big, the water hot and with good pressure, lovely bathroom.
Everything was spotlessly clean!
The staff was friendly and the breakfast was nice too, European style with some eggs, pastries, fruits, cured meats etc.
Would definitely come back again ☺️
The room was comfortable and spacious with a lovely little patio. Beautiful breakfast room with views (but no cooked breakfast). Staff were helpful with questions etc. Not a luxury hotel but great for a walking holiday, very peaceful and excellent value for money.
The staff were extremely helpful. Breakfast was exceptional and dinner(optional) was always delicious. I received an amazing deep tissue massage from Manuela at their Wellness Centre. Though their norm was a relaxation massage, Manuela delivered on her promise for my request.
Comfortable and spacious, sparkling clean rooms with amazing view. Located a bit away from the village, so peaceful surroundings are guaranteed. The hosting family was friendly, the breakfast exceptionally good. Calm and relaxed atmosphere.
spacious and clean room, perfect size for the balcony, very kind and helpful staff members. Got a very nice and relaxing massage procedure for a great price
