Perfect service. 24-hour reception. Located a little outside Guimaraes, but within walking distance of the historic center. Free parking opposite the entrance. Huge room. All the amenities. The only thing missing is a bit of soundproofing, because you can hear the cars on the first floor. Otherwise, everything was fine.
Magnificent experience and location. Located next to Bom Jesus. View of the sanctuary from the room. Very comfortable. The buffet breakfast was very basic, not up to par with the overall experience. I would still stay here again.
Well setup rooms, I stayed twice over 2 weeks as I need to be back in Braga for my mum’s follow up check cos of a fall in our initial Air B&B accommodation in Braga which had a lousy lift ended up my mum fell off the stairs which has poor visibility and marking.
Bruges is close to old town, easy walk to cafes, shops, Minho Uni, cathedral and all.
Will love to stay if I ever come back to Braga.
The room is relatively small and the decoration is relatively new
There is also a balcony for single people, which is good.
Parking needs to be parked on the side of the road, no dedicated parking lot
The location is beach front, so walking with toddlers to the beach and back- awesome. Food was quite good, some rooms are definitely older than the others, but all was clean. For kids- playground, and a pool. Pool though was a little cold, yet it's probably just a thing in Portugal.
A gem found by Jimalangs was originally an old house bought by a famous tennis player. The decoration was very elegant, the front desk service was especially good, and the bar brother was also very considerate. The breakfast was great, exquisite, and some were optional. It was not a long row, but I couldn't pick out the delicious one. There are also freshly cut mangoes, which is great.
But the only downside is that there is a bar downstairs, which is very noisy on Saturday night and can only sleep at 3 am.
Location near a noisy route, the doors of all the neighboring rooms are very noisy, constantly waking up from noise. The room is clean, but not comfortable. No fan. A comfortable bed, but it was impossible to sleep because the windows were coming out of the road.
The hotel is very close to the city center and can be reached on foot. There is also a large supermarket nearby, which is very convenient. There is an underground parking lot for 10 euros per day. The breakfast is very rich and the orange juice is freshly squeezed.
Very Good

Great
The hotel is in an ancient monastery and it makes all the charm and attraction of the place if you like ”old stones and historical places”. The renovation has kept the original building and improved it to todays comfort. The rooms ( cells) are small but well fitted with a comfortable bed and functional bathroom. You can feel History when you enter the building and anywhere you walk . They have a big outdoor park for pleasant walks . The church adjacent to the Hotel is worth visiting. I was staying on a weekend and I attended the Sunday mass. My only negative note is on the breakfast which is very disappointing in terms of product variety and quality. The set up of the breakfast buffet is very poor and not attractive at all. The breakfast team is not as welcoming and friendly as the front desk or lady at the bar, which is not meeting one's expectations in such a place.
Hotel Rural Maria da Fonte offers a charming stay in an old building full of character, beautifully maintained and consistently clean. While the menu and room service still need attention, the property remains an excellent base for exploring this beautiful region of northern Portugal. In terms of pricing, it feels like affordable luxury for those who spend carefully, making it a balanced choice for thoughtful travellers. We stayed for three nights to celebrate a friend’s significant birthday, and the experience highlighted the hotel’s potential as an event venue. The hall, catering, staff, and the surrounding landscape create a compelling setting for anyone seeking a location for a wedding or a similar celebration. Overall, it’s a place with authenticity, warmth, and strong regional character.
My stay at was fantastic. The location is excellent, situated close to key attractions and public transport. The room was spacious, clean, and well-appointed, with comfortable bedding and modern amenities. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with a smile. The breakfast buffet offered a great variety of delicious options. I also enjoyed the hotel's fitness center and pool, which were both well-maintained. Overall, my experience was wonderful, and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay.
What a beautiful place -- more of a resort than a hotel. Lovely pool area with brilliant blooming plants, and just across the street from the beach. We enjoyed (and over-ate) the breakfast buffet. Our room was comfortable with a spacious bathroom, plenty of closet space, and a private balcony overlooking the pool. We wish our plans allowed a longer stay.
Sensible room sizes. I had the queen suite. Had a bath and separate shower and toilet. Air con in the room and a comfortable (what felt like a) king size bed. I didn’t use much of the facilities apart from the breakfast which was a continental style buffet and a station where they make omelettes of your choosing along with bacon and mini sausages.
The hotel is located next to the Cathedral of Braga, and the view of Braga city and the evening skyline from the room was perfect. Breakfast was also delicious in a beautiful venue.
