Solar Sampaio e Melo

This place is really well located in the centre of Trancoso and within the walls. I came for the medieval gathering that celebrates a royal wedding in the 13th century. The people are very proud of their legacy. This hotel is a mix of old and new throughout and the hotel boasts a charming games room, beautiful and cosy living room and a really serene breakfast area. The bedroom is modern and the bed is comfy and massive. The shutters means it is very dark. Rain forest style shower and the bath gel and shampoo are from local companies. The best bit is the pool and garden though which have all manner of comforts but if you think busy resort this is the exact opposite. All I can hear right now is the church bells, birds, some planes in the sky and the odd delivery van. It literally has everything you need to relax and take on the sun. Breakfast is perfect, good mixture of local produce and they cater for most countries. The cheeses are wide ranging, the yoghurt home made and one can hear the team work hard (but quietly) in the kitchen. Only reason for taking a star off is the A/C which I couldn't work for some reason. Also this hotel is next to the resteraunt that served me the best food I've ever tasted.

Has seen better days. My wife and I spent a few nights there back in 2018. 9 nights in oct 2023. Has declined d considerably. Bath is bad, towels are like sand paper. No fridge. Very complicated to spend more than one night. Hard to save clothes toiletries etc. furniture falling apart. Beds uncomfortable. Will not stay again.

Das Hotel liegt mitten in der Altstadt. Öffentliche Parkplätze gibt es in der Umgebung genügend. Der Verwalter war sehr freundliche. Sehr schön ausgestattete Zimmer. Frühstück hervorragend. Die vom Verwalter erhaltenen Tipps zu Restaurents waren hervorragend.

Hinter der eher schlichten Fassade erschließt sich ein stilvoll eingerichtetes Hotel. Es gibt großzügig und wohnlich gestaltete Räume, die zum Verweilen einladen. Gelungen ist die Kombination von modernen und alten Stilelementen. Die Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter sind sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und aufmerksam und schaffen eine angenehme Atmosphäre. Unsere Zimmer waren gepflegt, großzügig und gut ausgestattet. Das Frühstück war vielfältig und mit lokalen Spezialitäten abwechslungsreich. Das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis war sehr gut. Es gab ausreichend Parkplätze.

O rececionista é um péssimo anfitrião, não nós quis mostrar todas as áreas do hotel nomeadamente a piscina, tivemos de perguntar e sentimos que nem nós queria mostrar, sentimos que não éramos bem-vindos neste solar. No check out nem perguntou se a estadia foi boa, foi nada simpático e muito arrogante. Quarto agradável e o resto do staff muito simpático mas é um solar que não recomendo a ninguém por causa do recepcionista.

Tudo muito bom, os quartos, o pequeno almoço, a amabilidade do staff. O edifício está muito bem reabilitado, com espaços sofisticados e de bom gosto. O quarto extremamente confortável. Só posso dizer bem de um espaço que se integra facilmente na malha de Trancoso e que atrai visitantes para lá.
