Vila Vicosa Hotels with Swimming Pool

"An administrative nightmare. I booked rooms through Expedia and twice sent a rooming list direct to the hotel (which was acknowledged) with all guest details and room allocations, however the information was not entered into their system and when my colleagues arrived late (we were competing on Portugal Rally so technicians, engineers working into the night) they were told there were not enough rooms. Colleagues had to share 3 to a room when accommodation had been booked and paid for well in advance and my contact details had been shared several times. I tried to sort this out the following morning, in person at the hotel reception, which was a difficult process and still not successful. I would not recommend the hotel for a business group booking, they don't have the resource to cope with the booking process and it caused a lot of issues."

"It was lovely and memorable and we truly enjoyed our stay and visit. The property's location is amazingly breathtaking, the staff attentive and professional and the food was wonderful. The breakfast buffet provided a variety of delicious bites for a diverse palate. Strolling or driving around the town was fun with something amazing to discover at every corner. Although the heating system didn't work too well and the windows weren't able to close efficiently, it was expected and managed by drawing the curtains closed. The room had some dust and cobwebs along corners, window sills etc., but it's a historical place, so again, expected. The bed was very comfortable and there was ample space for storage. We wished we stayed a few more days because it was worth the experience. The views from the room were magnificent. A bottle of wine was provided and that made for a sweet souvenir. Thank you Pousada Castelo de Estremoz for an unforgettable accommodation. "
