This was our second visit in one year to magic and magnetic Marvão and we stayed again at Albergaria el Rei Dom Manuel. The place has kept the level in every aspect. We had a good reception by the owners(that we hadn't met last year), and actually one employee -Maria- recognized me instantely. This small hotel is very clean, well... More

The hotel is a small well run hotel with a friendly staff. The rooms are somewhat small, but adequate in size. Our room 202 had a small balcony with a great view of the castle and the cross ventilation helped make a warm September more pleasant. The breakfasts are great, real scrambled eggs and great breads as well as the... More

We stayed here as part of a 10 day tour of Portugal. The hotel was arranged by our travel agent and we were delighted with her choice. it is such a quaint hotel with lots of character. Our room was spacious enough, but the view!! It was simply stunning. We had a 180 deg view of the world which just... More

We were absolutely enchanted with Marvao and the view from our hotel room. The room was a superior valley view room. If you are over 55 and book directly, the hotel offers a discount. We found the place more than adequate. Our bed was fine - firm mattress and seemed very solid to us. The breakfast was very good as... More

The decor in the rooms seemed more "Adirondack Hunting Lodge" than historic Portugal, but the Dom Emanuel is very comfortable and clean, has a spacious parking area, and is wonderfully situated for exploring Marvao, an historic walled town way up on a mountain-top, with gardens and a beautiful castle. The restaurant seemed attractive (generic continental decor), although we ate elsewhere.... More

The rooms are nice and classic, with wood walls and rustic. The view is very pleasant. The beds are a bit small and not very solid, I'm 1,7 and my boyfriend 1,9. We had to turn around at the same time and carefully, otherwise I have his knee on my stomach and all the bed struture shook. The walls were... More

This is our kind of place -- a small picturesque walled hill town with vistas clear to Spain. The Albergaria el Rei Dom Manuel was perfect -- in the center of the town, easy parking, comfortable rooms and restaurant on site. We had initially booked at the Pousada, but my husband just had knee surgery and, after reading the other... More

We stayed here one night on our way to Lisbon. Loved the location of the hotel, right at the beginning of the walled town. The dinner was good - pork and veggies and fish and veggies. Very fresh food. I also liked the nice spread for breakfast. I also asked for some fried eggs. Good eggs. We also had a... More

We stayed at the el Rei Dom Manuel for two nights and it was part of a wonderful and charming visit to Marvao and the valleys below. The hotel is spotless and quiet and the rooms are lovely -- it costs a little more for a view of the valley -- and have all the amenities you'd want. The staff... More
