“Good location, great value”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2011

We spent a night here for our visit to Braga. We were most interested in the Bom Jesus Monte complex so looked for accommodation on the hill and not in downtown Braga and this was a great fit.
A simple, no-frills hotel at a GREAT price (less than 50Eu/room) in the park of Bom Jesus.
Rooms were very clean and spacious. Decor was simple. WiFi was available for free in the public areas with an option for paid WiFi in the rooms as well.
We went out for a night tour of downtown Braga (with the car) but spent most of our daytime on the mountain - a walking distance from the hotel.
Note that all other hotels on the mountain belong to the same chain.

“Great Stay in Hotel do Lago”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 May 2011

people found this review helpful

We stayed for a weekend at this hotel in Bom Jesus, Braga and we had a great experience. Fantastic location, great value for money, good bedrooms and an excellent indoor pool(in a nearby hotel of the same group). Only down side was a little poor breakfast and no restaurant at the hotel. (There's a restaurant in other hotel but very expensive) Overall if you want to visit braga, this is an excellent option.

“beautiful location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 March 2010

The only thing I have to point out is the temperature of the room... it was extremely hot, for me... for my partner, he loved it :)
The room had AC, and I turned it off, but even so the room kept hot (I would say 25ºC or more) .. I was too lazy to complain about this lol

“Peaceful location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 September 2008
1
person found this review helpful

This hotel is situated only a few minutes walk from the Bom Jesus sanctuary which sits on a hill outside Braga. The whole area is very peaceful although when we arrived at 6pm on a sunny Sunday chaos reigned with cars parked everywhere. However, as soon as the locals had gone home calm was restored for the rest of the week.
The hotel itself is modern with good facilities for guests although it does lack a restaurant (except for a good continental breakfast). For dinner, guests will be directed to a sister hotel, the Elevador (situated close-by) which has a well appointed restaurant with panoramic views over Braga. There they serve a 3 course dinner for 19 Euros. However, apart from a wonderful dessert table the food was nothing special. Just a short walk in the opposite direction from the Lago are several local restaurants which serve good food. The second one up the narrow road was particularly good and had English translations.
The rooms are basic but comfortable, clean and modern. The bath was very narrow so if you have a wide girth you might find it uncomfortable. One side of the hotel faces the mountain road which is not busy but is cobbled so if you want the window open at night (there is air conditioning) ask for a room on the entrance side. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Above all, for the price it was very good value.

  • Liked — Location. Easy access to Braga and Geres mountains without the noise
  • Disliked — Bath
