Hotel terbaik di Messegães

This could be such a nice hotel: rooms are modern, spacious and clean, all face to the Minho valley and will have sunsets. Breakfast (still included for all guests) is above average and is served in bright open roof top restaurant. Indoor pool wiht Jacuzzi and Turkish Bath is a plus in this Portugal very Norte area.. Outdoor pool was great! What makes me to vote so bad? First of all you'll be welcomed with a recently (2023?) introduced parking fee of 6€/day which is ridicolous as outside the parking is ”free”. Actually the real free area is 700m to be walked back, so most folks who are shocked about those low-cost airline fees do park their car in front of the gate where actually it'y a yellow line both sides of the street. Risk of fine exists! 6€ isnot much and you might find it petty to complain? True but as 99% of the guest do come by car this kind of mandatory fee if you don't want to be risked of a fine - I'm sure the local authorities will sooner or later - of course only time by time - check and give fines. In my eyes this is done in ”cooperation” wiht hotel management. Hotel Management, oh yes: during our 2 nights (3 days) stay hotel manager wasn't available to talk to me? A management which isn't on site isnot a management - should be fired! The last minor thing I complain is the limited experience of most of the ladies working there. This could be improved with above management, if there was one at all? My message: insteady of introducing stupid parking fees, charge for the indoor pool or for the pool towels like other hotels do. I can't imagine why 6€ for each room can make a difference if the prices are very dynamlically changeing between 55€ (tour operators) and 200€ for the double depending on the date you are searching for. (BTW: even 100€ is a maximum limit for this remote area middle of nowhere close to Spanish border)

Acho que não tivemos sorte com a data... o Hotel tinha estado encerrado na época baixa... Além de não haver internet e TV cabo naquele dia (em toda a vila, situação alheia ao Hotel, diga-se) o ar condicionado funcionava mal e a TV não funcionava. Depois de reportado na receção trocaram a TV e deram um jeito na consola do AC, que estava partida. Os funcionários demonstraram simpatia e disponibilidade, mas as condições do Hotel podiam ser melhores.
