Beautiful Hotel

Everything perfect. The hotel main floor is marvelous, a great pleasure to enjoy it. The room is comfortable. The Hotel location couldn’t be better, at the center of the old center. The only thing to regret is that the Parking Lot is a bit far away from the hotel and you have to carry your baggage to the hotel.

Fantastic stay!

Lovely hotel located in the heart of the old city. The short walk from the car park is no real inconvenience and the setting within the car free cobbled streets more than compensates. Beds were huge and really comfy and the breakfast was also superb!

This hotel is truly authentic, with rooms that are both very clean and uniquely designed. It’s centrally located, making it easy to explore, and the surrounding area is absolutely gorgeous. The stay was extremely comfortable, with everything you could possibly need thoughtfully provided. The toiletries were excellent, and even fresh water was left for a nightcap. A wonderful experience overall!

We like the location of the property in the old town. It was centrally located and within easy walking distance to many restaurants and sights. It is a nice walk to the old castle. It is also conveniently located so you can walk into the newer parts of town to shop and eat as well. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The buffet breakfast was well appointed and nicely laid out with excellent service. Eggs are freshly cooked to your preference. The wooden shutters on the room balcony and window were very nice. Hotel parking is at site located a short walk from the hotel and google maps directions to the hotel direct you up a one-way street. The only negative is that there was an issue with the shower pan separating form the wall in one corner which caused some moisture damage to show on the shower wall.

This was my favorite hotel during my trip to Portugal! My room at the hotel was very nice. The breakfast was excellent. And the staff were excellent as well. The location is within walking distance of the castle, shopping and also very good restaurants. The hotel has a Michelin restaurant. We ate there and it is excellent.

This was our second stay at the Hotel da Oliveira. All being well, we shall be returning again. It is a most elegant space in the historical quarter, with themed guest rooms (ours was named after the inscription of the city on the UNESCO World Heritage List). LOCATION: Situated at the very heart of the Centro Historico, the hotel is a short taxi ride from the train station and the bus station (even walkable with light luggage). HISTORY: The elegant breakfast verandah of the hotel opens out onto the historical Largo da Oliveira, while the main entrance to the hotel opens onto the Rua de Santa Maria, said to be the first road built in Portugal (Guimarães being where Portugal's history begins). At its upper end, the Rua de Santa Maria culminates in the Paço dos Duques de Bragança and the Castelo de Guimarães, while at its lower end it becomes a part of the Largo da Oliveira, with the Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Oliveira. While the latter is still a living church, a part of it has been converted into the Museu de Alberto Sampaio (at the height of the summer holidays, the museum stays open late into the night). Guests of the hotel are within walking distance of all key sights, and a walk away from the Teleférico de Guimarães, the cable car that transports one to Monte da Penha.
