Hotel Dona Sofia

Another review of this hotel said if you want 5 star then pay for it. This hotel is incredibly good value. It's basic, but clean, good size rooms, the beds are very comfy with a choice of cushion. But the best thing about the hotel is the location. It's right by the Cathedral and a very short walk from all the main sights, restaurants and areas you would want to visit. There is free parking available which is rare in this small city and we were lucky enough to get one of the 5 spots. But there is lots of parking available around nearby which is not too expensive and this hotel has deal with the cat park in the liberty shopping centre for 10E for 24 hours, where you can go in and out s much as you want (go to the car park desk when you arrive to get it set up). The breakfast is good, shame there is no kettle on the room. The staff are so friendly and helpful and despite this not being a luxurious hotel and it is a bit dated, I couldn't recommend it highly enough for a short stay.

A small boutique hotel. Centrally located, yet without street noise. A front desk staff spoke excellent English, and was very helpful with sights and transportation info. The included breakfast was served at 07:00, great for an early riser. Excellent with plenty of choices, including scrambled eggs. My room was rather small, and the bathroom was tiny. The rooms need an renovation to bring them up to date.

Well so many people criticising this place! To start with my arrival. I had mistakenly booked my room for the next night. Not an issue. Problem fixed in a jiffy. Great service. The hotel is a bit old but if you are only staying a night or 2 what is the issue? Room was tidy and clean. Bed was reasonable. Might have been a bit softer. I had no noise issues. I was on second floor. Someone else mentioned a lack of drinking glasses. That i agree with! This place is very centrally located. Breakfast was fine, eggs but no bacon. I would stay here again

O hotel diz que tem estacionamento mas não tem. O endereço informado está errado. Tivemos que deixar o carro em uma rua, ir a pé até o hotel para ver onde ficava. Levamos mais de uma hora para achar o local e é numa praça que nao entra carro. Os proprietários não sao nada simpáticos. O quarto é okay e cafe da manha tb.
