Quinta do Barrieiro had been recommended to us by friends and it did not disappoint. Our room was lovely and spacious and the bed extra comfy. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the farm dog was so gorgeous! Even though we went during winter it was still a great spot for a lovely break.
The Estalagem de Marvão is located within the historic walled town center of Marvão.

Stunning, central location in a magnificent hilltop town. The hotel is full of character. Even though it is small they found space indoors for our bicycles.
Featuring a terrace with panoramic views of Marvão, this country house is located within the city walls.

The views are unimaginable. The bed was big and comfortable. The pillows were the best we have had in Portugal.
Our hosts could not have been more helpful.
This village must be explored

We stayed at Dom Dinis, overlooking the valley below, in December 2023. Hardly any tourists, wonderfully friendly area. Be sure to visit the church (Igreja de Santiago) of which Saramago wrote on his journey around Portugal! We ate at the excellent Varanda do Alentejo, the lamb stew was fantastic.

The castle is a must see.
The castle is a must see. The views from all directions were unobstructed and gave one the feeling of what it must have been like centuries before when the castle was used as a defensive weapon. Well worth the trip and one had access to almost the entire outer wall.

We stayed in Marvão for 3 days, 2 nights and spent the days touring around. I HIGHLY recommend taking the biking tour with Rail Bike Marvão, it's 16km through the heart of Marvão's nature.
I also HIGHLY recommend you visit the small town or Castelo de Vide.

Amazing old town and stunning castle and scenery. So quiet and relaxing. Even though we have been in the castle and museum, we intend to come back and do it all again because it was such an enjoyable experience.

Just being here gives a lift to the soul!
Just being here gives a lift to the soul! It is beautiful, everyone is so friendly, every winding street you walk down brought a smile to my face, and THAT VIEW!! You turn a corner and it takes your breath away. I walked here from Castelo de Vide and the path was well marked and gorgeous, with birds of prey hovering and I even saw what I think is an Egyptian mongoose.... Lots of beautiful arts and crafts and good restaurants. I stayed at the Estalagem de Marvao which couldnt be faulted, really beautiful and friendly. Totally recommended (tho some parts of the town walls are not for the faint hearted - but there are plenty of steps down if it gets too much for the vertiginous!).
The property exceeded the expectations. It is a house full of stories to tell. The owner José Andrade is very friendly and available to help with suggestions and knowledge about the region. The breakfast was good. The swimming pool was available, unfortunately the weather did not help in November. From our room we had line of sight to Marvão, marvelous to see the morning and the night of this city from our window. It is possible to visit the farm with the guidance of the owner. A place to return in the future.
We didn't realize just how exotic the town of Marvao was - a very pretty tiny hill-town perched on the top of a rocky outcropping. And this property is actually a small house that works very well if you end up booking both rooms like we did - one upstairs from the main room, which includes a nice livingroom and full kitchen. Highly recomend if you're a family or even a couple that likes to spread out with a bit of space.
The hotel is associated with a restaurant just across the street where the complimentary breakfast was served. The breakfast was a feast with cheeses, yogurt, meats, rolls and more. We had dinner at the restaurant as well and it was very good. The hotel manager was very friendly and helpful- showed us where to park (very close to the hotel) and how to get our car into the area.
Located in a beautiful country side, surrounded by nature is great location to hike or bike. It is close to Castelo de Marvao, Castelo da Vide, Menhir de Meade and other lovely medioeval towns, is a place to relax or work with creative projects. I could stay longer if I had have the time, this place is in my list for my next trip to Portugal.
First of all, the location is perfect, everything is close by. I stayed 2 nights. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious, furnished with period furniture and absolutely neat and clean. And, the main treasure is the owner of the hotel, friendly and competently solving any question of the guests. Breakfast and WI-FI are also good.
This Studio was spotless and beautifully decorated. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchenette was enough to get you going.
The staff was friendly, the grounds beautiful. A place to relax, put your feet up and Recharge.
Marvão is nearby with sites and restaurants. We will definitely be back.
The room was quiet and the bed was comfortable. We had an excellent breakfast that we had selected upon arrival, and the accommodation was very well located for walking around Marvao. There is parking immediately beside the B&B and our host was very pleasant and knowledgeable.
The staff is friendly and helpful. The location is just perfect for enjoying the calm, close to a lot of interesting historical places to visit, and very close to the city of Marvão which is a must to visit.
Pets allowed and private parking just perfect.
beautiful 1 night stay in Marvao, it was a quiet winter night so we were the only ones there! very friendly staff, super clean, cozy room, great breakfast, easy parking & great location. we had a lovely time.
There had been a problem with the a/c in the room and looked for another room in another hotel for us. Amazing customer service. I would definitely contact them again if I go back!!!
Amazing views and surrondings! The landscape is....impossible to describe! You need to see it!! Opening the door to the balcony and see the beautiful view of Marvao is breathtaking!
