I stayed at Hotel Serra da Estrela for one night in April with my wife and 18-month daughter. The hotel is well located inside Serra da Estrela and is pretty easy to explore the region from there. The hotel is nice and can even be classified as pretty as the decoration is made with typical tradicional portuguese elements. Altough the... More

Let's be honest, it should be rated 3 star's instead of 4 star. There are better 4 star hotels in the area. But it ends to be a nice place. It's a beautiful hotel, old but with recent renovations. Rooms are big and confortable, but it's a shame to charge 5 euros for a pillow menu and 3 euros for... More

This hotel should not be considered a 4* hotel but a good 3*. The location is good to people who intend to go to vodafone sky resort (15 minutes away by car), otherwise it is far from the city centre and don't have many attractions around, also the road to the city is a bit dangerous at night. The helpdesk... More

It is a large hotel with several rooms, lots of services and a wide space to park the car. We booked online for a summer weekend, so, price was very good (45€ double/night). Normally, this is a winter kind of area searched by snow lovers, however, if you are a nature or a walk trail lover, this a good place,... More

I had originally planned to visit Portugal in November and had booked the pousada in Mantiegas. I was subsequently notified by the booking agent that the pousada would be closed for rennovations and ended up booking the Serra da Estrella, not realizing that it was 16k from Mantiegas. When my trip was postponed to June, I decided to stick with... More

Very nice hotel with fantastic views. Rooms are great and you'll find terrific places (inside the hotel) for fun: table-football, snooker, etc. Perfect for children and old travelers.
