"Just as you come onto the property, just outside the reception is a cobble stone path, where sets of chairs and tables are set up to watch the sunset and drink the wines produced at the nearby vineyard. That was my absolute favorite place to sit as we were celebrating my partner's birthday. Our friends from New York were vegetarians and found loads of options on the farm to table menu on offer for breakfast and dinner. It rained the last 3 days of our trip, cancelling our hot air balloon ride, but the concierge toggled quickly and offered us an array of options including an olive oil tasting. Our guide was a fount of knowledge. Thank you!"

"What a great experience! All that you can expect from a great resort on such a beautiful place. Suitable for all type of tourism but specially good for families."

"We stayed in this hotel for one night. It’s right in the heart of the wine region and we visited a vineyard before arriving for the night. Easy to park in the underground car park but there’s also plenty of parking on the street. Super easy check-in and offered drink as we arrived which was nice. The hotel has an indoor pool and some Thermo circuit spas which were great to relax in the afternoon and morning. Lovely breakfast with a good choice, including eggs Benedict. The bedroom was nicely decorated with a decent king-size bed that was very comfortable blackout blinds, large pretty windows. We didn’t have dinner in the hotel we opted to walk out to one of the local restaurants. There was plenty of choice."

"Who wouldn't want to stay in a cottage at the foot of a castle? This was an AMAZINGLY beautiful hotel on the side of a steep hilltop, right beside a medieval castle. IT was so peaceful and serene! the view out over the valley was breathtaking. It felt like we were at a retreat, in all the best ways. Our room was simple but well equiped, clean and full of character. The electrical connections and wifi met the needs without being intrusive to the character of the room. Breakfast was simple but completely adequate - and it fit in with the character of the property. There was nothing at all that needed to be changed for this property. We would LOVE to go back again and highly recommend it."

"If you are driving it’s a bit nerve wracking both so worth it ! What a beautiful inn nestled in one of the nicest medieval towns in Portugal ! Pinch me views from rooms and terrace !"

"This is a beautiful, peaceful hotel. The rooms are large, quiet, and comfortable, and the staff are wonderful. It would serve perfectly as a retreat and invites meditation. There are no TVs in the rooms, but there's a big TV in a common room. The building also houses artwork and small museums. It's a bit isolated. The restaurant wasn't open the night we were there, but we had a lovely dinner at a restaurant 700 meters away. You can also go to the castle for dinner. The hotel breakfast was wonderful. "

"I can't say enough about the location of Castle Window. The views from the back terrace are breathtaking and you walk out the front door to a cobblestone street with lovely restaurants and shops. Jose was accessible and helpful. The house had modern conveniences while maintaining the beautiful historic aesthetic of the location. We definitely recommend staying here!"

"Excellent hotel. "

"Great dining and room experience. Creative Portuguese menu. Indoor pool and extra bonus!"
