Melia Castelo Branco

I chose the hotel because of the location and the fact it has electric car chargers on the parking. To my pleasant surprise I was upgraded to a city view room. There was only one AC charger on the parking but luckily there was not much charging going on so I could use it. The room was quite normal with a nice view over the city had it not been as misty as it was that day. The indoor pool is very large and comfortable. Unfortunately they require you to wear a swimming cap which can be bought at the reception for 3 Euros.

Come here for the spa,took a monthbership. Jacuzzi didnt work,first time but they got it working.Second time it was out of order,reception was not open which ment there were no cups for the waterachine as u have to get them from there.On top of all came for the awuagym class but the teacher didn't show up! 0n top they are constructing putside which makes a lot Of noise!Very disappointed,lets see what the 3rd time will bring. .

Very nice hotel by the Castelo Branco city. Great views, extremely comfortable rooms and good price. Very nice and varied breakfast. The hotel also provides swimming pool, gym, sauna and steam room facilities. Staff was friendly. Park facilities.

It was lovely as usual. Really when travel though this areq I try to book it because staff is very nice and I have everything I need specially it is clean that probably is one of the most important thing for me. I recommend it includong if you don't use SPA service

Excellent facilities, wonderful view and a mouthwatering breakfast. Hard to believe it is only 4stars, should be 5. I highly recommend this hotel if you are staying in Castelo Branco or somewhere nearby. Lovely town btw.

We have been a 2nd time in this superb hotel with modern rooms, good faciliites (public indoor pool, Gym and free Sauna) and excellent Melia breakfast with views from top of the hill to the valley. Lovely receptionist ladies! Downsides are a (central) AC which is too weak to cool down the rooms when outside temperatures are around 40°C and a management who thinks 51°C in a Sauna are „normal.... If you can accept both highly recommended in Castelo Branco for tour operator rates (70€). Official Melia Website rates (120€) are by far to high for this kind of forgotten city Sauna: would have been easy to be solved as due to Covid19 rules we anyway needed to book the Sauna (what of course 90% of users ignored), for our time frame it would have been possible to increase. After long discussion the manager accpeted to change the temperatur from 51 to 62C - I couldn't convince him that even 62 is too low....
