Best Hotels in Vila Praia de Ancora, Portugal

It was a great stay. Hotel staff were always attentive. The cleanliness is outstanding for being excellent. Spacious rooms with everything you need to have a great stay. Breakfast is exceptional, nothing is missing and has everything. It is close to the center and also to the beaches. I will definitely come back.

We were walking the Portuguese Camino and this was our favourite hotel of the route. We were delighted to have a kettle in our room so we could make a herbal tea which we’d brought with us. It coincided with us finishing the day’s walk mid afternoon so got to enjoy a relax around the pool and a dip. Great breakfast too! Reception were really friendly and helpful.

This charming and extremely well priced hotel is a 10 minute walk from the train station and a 5 minute walk from the main street in Viana do Castelo. The staff was lovely, the hotel charming. The room was spotless, and impeccably comfortable. The bathroom was also sparkling and everything functioned perfectly. Breakfast was lovely. The breakfast staff was cheerful and helpful. We very much enjoyed our stay.

This was a nice little boutique hotel right near the historic center. We were always greeted with a smile and treated kindly. I shared a room with my son and the twin beds were more than adequate. Bathroom is on the small side but it was fine for our needs. The hotel is a little older but the elevator worked great and the entire property was well kept and clean. My only caveat was there there was no outdoor seating area, you have to wear a swim cap and water shoes for the pool and the pool was indoors in a very hot room. The continental style breakfast buffet was good and provided lots of variety. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again!

I went with my husband and a couple friends on Carnival weekend. We entered on the 19th and left on the 21st of February. I hadn't been to this hotel for a long time. Being a 4 star unit I was quite disappointed with the restoration. When it comes to breakfast, it's quite reasonable. The two dinners we had there were very bad. Even if you are a member, you pay a considerable amount per person. At one of the dinners they served some black pork secrets that they might have been embarrassed to present. Missing desserts. Salads only lettuce, tomato and corn. It was not this type of service that I was used to at Inatel, but at what is considered a 4-star service. I'm sorry but I can't accept it. Inatel management should scrutinize these situations.

This hotel is so beautifully restored and it’s in an ideal location, right next to the train station and the funicular to the hilltop Santa Luzia, in the heart of Viana do Castelo, yet quiet and peaceful. There are many lovely spaces to sit, chat, work, play games, in the common areas. There’s a pool and patio adjacent to the bar, which also serves as the breakfast room. Important for me, due to some mobility limitations: there’s an elevator. I stayed for five nights while my husband was walking the Portuguese Camino, and he took a rest day here and stayed two nights. Our room (202) was, I believe, a standard double room, but it was spacious and very comfortable. It was serviced daily and spotlessly clean, the bed was very comfortable, there was space to unpack and a desk to organize my things (one small drawback being the limited number of outlets, leading me to have to charge my phone next to the sink, risking it getting wet), there was a soaking tub!, and a seating area looked out the window with a view of Santa Luzia (as well as some construction and renovation or maintenance on the railroad station 😊). Some earlier reviewers disparaged the breakfast provided. Something must have changed if their reviews were accurate (maybe their feedback inspired improvement), because the amount and variety offered was considerable: a variety of breads and cereals, spreads, cheeses, deli meats, yogurt, fruit, hard boiled eggs, hot scrambled eggs, bacon, plus juice, coffee, and tea. Quite an appetizing colorful display! The best feature of this hotel though is the incredible staff! Everyone was gracious and always willing to help, with a smile. Daniela and Alberta were especially attentive and helpful to me, and Rui went way “above and beyond” in helping me get train tickets, arranging a massage for my pilgrim husband when he arrived, attending to special requests, giving excellent restaurant recommendations, etc. My heartfelt thanks for all the help so readily and graciously given. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.
