    historical landmark
    leaky shower
    sealing issues

    historical landmark, impressive pool, character and history

    Some windows didn't seal properly!!! A shower with subpar pressure due to a significant leak!!! Clearer attention needed to these issues before guests check in. A little frustrating to experience when staying at a unique property!!!

    dinner options
    limited choices

    My stay at Forte De Sao Francisco Hotel Chaves was remarkable, particularly the complementary breakfast, which featured a vast array of fresh fruits, pastries, and local cheeses. The peaceful ambiance of the hotel grounds made for a truly relaxing retreat.

    Some dinner options were limited.

    Every moment at this hotel was a treasure! The antique furniture added a unique flair, and my spacious room was spotless with both a bath and shower option. Breakfast was a delightful spread with fresh pastries, cheeses, and fruits, while the pool area provided a serene escape with its stunning views and comfortable loungers.

    strongly recommend ❤️❤️

    soothing atmosphere
    inviting breakfast
    sealing issues

    a unique stay but some areas lacked attention

    The calming ambience of the hotel made for a relaxing stay. I particularly enjoyed the spacious layout of the Standard Twin Room, which felt both cozy and elegant. The morning breakfast was a highlight, featuring a delightful selection of fresh, local products that left a lasting impression. Also, the pool area looked inviting, though I didn't have the chance to swim this time.

    Some windows didn’t seal properly, which is an issue that needs addressing.

    antique charm
    fresh breakfast
    window sealing issue
    upkeep areas
    snack bar service

    The antique charm of this hotel really stands out, with rooms that are spacious and impeccably clean, featuring both shower and bath options. Breakfast offers a delightful buffet made from fresh farm-to-table products, while the friendly staff are always available and willing to assist. However, some windows had sealing issues, and there were areas needing more upkeep. Additionally, the pool area, though great, could benefit from improved snack bar service to match the quality of the accommodations.

    fresh breakfast options
    great ambiance
    broken air conditioning

    i returned to forte de sao francisco hotel for another stay, and it exceeded my expectations again. the pool area was a fantastic spot after easy strolls around town. breakfast was a highlight with tons of fresh options that set the perfect mood for the day.

    the air conditioning wasn’t working well.

    unique location
    generous breakfast
    upkeep issue

    the fort's unique location and the expansive grounds were truly impressive, with modern rooms featuring a cozy sitting area. breakfast was generous and the staff went above and beyond to assist us, including making dining reservations.

    some areas could use a bit more upkeep.
