Hotel Rural Alves - Casa Alves Torneiros

Pleasant country location. Very warm welcome. The sisters who own the property were very professional and extremely helpful. Rooms were very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was continental but good and plentiful. Very nice pool.

Air-con didn't work. A large fan was provided so not too uncomfortable. It would have been useful if the restaurant was open for evening meals.

Emilia Alves was exceptional, the nicest of smiles, concern and attention. It is owners like this that make a stay. The breakfast served was buffet and plentiful with fresh fruit and croissants etc and nothing was too much trouble. The pool just what I needed . I did google for a restaurant in the vicinity but found nothing so we took snacks however there is one nearby Arminda advised so perhaps this could be mentioned.

Our GPS had a little problem finding however that was our concern not the properties.

Beautiful location, nice pool, and above all the kindest staffs! Our family, 2 adults and 2 kids really enjoyed the stay.

Air conditioner is out of order. We should stay in the pool all the day.

The staff at the Rural Alves could not be more helpful or friendly. My car battery died in their garage and while I waited for a mechanic to arrive they cooked me a fine meal of soup, chicken, and rice. I could not be more satisfied with this wonderful inn or the people who operate it. The room even had a jacuzzi in the bathroom!

Da simpatia das manas , do local , do maravilhoso pequeno almoço e da calma e relaxe do local.

Very peaceful place, calming vibe ! The stuff was very kind and attentive ! The pool is also a plus !

Good location, helpful dtaff

Rooms bathroom had a damp smell / pipe work smelled

The location is perfect: 15 min from Braga and Guimaraes and 45 min from Penedes-Gerês and really quiet relaxing environment. Not one single noise during the night. Great beds. Rooms are big. The two sisters who run the hotel extremely pleasant and nice. Perfect parking possibility. Free cold bottled water in the room.

It looked like it deteriorated a bit. Walls are cracked, there was a a hole in the bathroom just stuffed with paper. Pool had sand and missing tiles. Breakfast is ok but no fresh products (besides the fruit). A bit expensive and definitely not 4 stars (anymore). The room we booked was awful even though it was a double superior: only 2 small upper windows, the bathroom smelled like tubes and small steps in the room which are dangerous if you have to go out of the bed at night. They solved it nicely with a new room next day and gave us breakfast for free which was a nice detail. Overall it could use an upgrade as the location and place itself is pleasant and relaxing and hospita is perfect.
