Hotel quite ok. Beds comfortable. Clean. Bathroom with tube for me. Shower  not blocked with lime what often I am getting over the world. Not so much space in the room what is typical for Ibis. Parking on the front limited but there is many quiet parking street or regular parking location around. Perfect location. Good restaurants 10 min walk. Close to the city center. Shopping center 3 min walk. Good breakfast. Cheese, fresh bread, croissants, ham, fresh juices, tomato, yoghurts, eggs etc. what you need for breakfast is there. Fast internet. Value for money unbeatable. Fully recommend.

Its a two star hotel, and yes, its only two stars. The brakfast is regular with fresh fruits. Not high class, but totally ok. The rooms are ok and clean. Sleeping with open windows wkae you up at 7am, a bus station is close to the hotel. Walk in the city is around 10-15 min, to the stadium 4-5 minutes. The bathroom need a update, the plastic curtain needs to change 100%. Also they have to clean the molds in the bathroom.

R. Conde Dom Henrique, 4800-412 Guimarães, Portugal

Given the weather, fog, and winter colours, the castle and palace looked absolutely eerie and beautiful! It cost 6 euros for the combined ticket and both can be done in an hour. The palace is original and underwent some renovations but the castle was completely rebuilt in the 1940s. There's not much to see actually and the outside is way better than the inside. We couldn't go to the very top of the tower as it was cordoned off. There is free parking around the area.

It's a historic site of great importance for Guimarães and the whole of Portugal and the mighty walls and towers, are very well preserved...the imposing original fortress was built in the 10th century to defend the Monastery of Santa Maria from the incursions of the Moors. It's located on a hill overlooking the city below...Inside of the castle, you can climb inside the tribute tower, while visiting a small exhibition that tells us the history of the castle and of Portugal. The tour is well organized and takes little time. Entrance to the visit is paid: The ticket is very cheap, only 2 euros, so it's worth visiting the interior.

The Guimarães has important place in history of Portugal and the castle has in history of Guimarães. About 1000 years old the castle has still been maintained well for the visitors. Platforms have been erected to make it easy for visitors. Some wonderful views of the city can be had from this castle. Please take a combo ticket with Duque’s palace.

Guimarães Castle

Largo da Oliveira, 4810-431 Guimarães, Portugal

It is in this square that you can find what remains of the old Convent of Nossa Senhora da Oliveira, the church of Oliveira and the beautiful cloister inserted in the Alberto Sampaio Museum. In front of the church, you can see the pattern that recalls the victory of D. Afonso IV over the Moors, in 1340, in the battle of Salado. Also noteworthy is the Domus Municipalis, an imposing monument that was the county palace at the end of the 14th century, highlighting the porch supported by five Gothic arches, the five bay windows and a statue on the facade of the building that represents Guimarães.

Popular and picturesque square with historical reminiscences and which maintains the same beauty that the whole of the city offers. Full of restaurants, it is an excellent alternative to share with tourists and locals. For dinner it is more crowded, especially in the hot months (cool at sunset). Portuguese local food. There are different profiles of restaurants and menus in which to find interest.

Very pretty place with beautiful buildings. Lots of little restaurants.
