Reviews and Ratings
Upon arrival, I was pleased to find that despite its central location, the hotel was surprisingly quiet. The rooms had a slight smell of cigarettes, but the double balcony with wall-sliding windows made up for it. The service was incredibly helpful and gentle, solving any issues efficiently. The location was excellent, close to the town center and with reduced-cost private parking nearby. The dining experience was not exceptional, lacking value for the price paid.

Dining options are varied, with a mix of basic and excellent choices. The service is friendly and helpful, though there could be better communication about parking rules. Overall, the hotel has great potential with some care and attention.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel with spacious rooms that came with a good size desk, a pointless built-in sofa, and a decent size bathroom. The balcony overlooking a main square was a big bonus. The staff were extremely helpful and made great suggestions for exploring Braga, although their lack of smiles was noticeable. The location was perfect, allowing quick access to the bus station and old town. The dining experience, although good, could have been better considering the price.
Despite some areas that could be improved, my stay at the hotel was overall positive. The location is convenient for exploring the city, but the room and service had some minor drawbacks. The dining options are decent considering the current situation.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms, in the usual Ibis style, were very nice, with good air conditioning, and the parking underneath was convenient. The town itself was incredibly beautiful, making it easy to explore on foot. The food was also delicious. However, the divided rooms with a locked door could be a bit inconvenient at times.
The hotel is located centrally, within walking distance to the old town area of Braga. The rooms are spacious and clear, ideal for accommodating multiple guests. The service was a mix of helpfulness and distance, varying in attentiveness. The dining options, though a bit pricey, offer a satisfactory experience.

The hotel offers a lovely view from the small but very clean rooms. While the amenities are basic with only two plastic cups and no kettle or fridge, the cleanliness is commendable. The staff are extra helpful and pleasant, but there were occasional disturbances like smoking under our window that affected the overall experience. The location is brilliant for exploring the north of Portugal, being right in the heart of the bustling Braga city center.
