We were provided a home like atmosphere. The staff were laser focus on providing guests the very best experience. We often heard, “we’re here for you”. They certainly live up to that statement, specifically, Claudia, Barbara, and Patricia. The breakfast ingredients were fresh every day. They went out of their way to accommodate my lactose free needs.

I loved the hotel. It was beautiful in a very romantic setting. The facilities were first class and the breakfast was gorgeous. The staff were the friendliest and most helpful staff I have ever encountered, going out of the way to help with my car hire. I will definitely use and recommend this hotel again

We had a lovely stay in this historic home which the owners had remodeled to make it suitable for guests. While the rooms in the new wing were delightful,We liked the historic part of the house the best. The pool was lovely and the staff was most helpful, informative, kind and thoughtful. Breakfast was great, too!. We had a great meal at a tapas bar in the historic town center. We loved watching festival fireworks from our room windows.

Super hyggeligt hotel med sødt personale. Hotellet ligger smukt i en fantastisk indrettet ældre bygning. Utroligt charmerende og langt fra en standard være. Kan varmt anbefales

My wife and me stayed at the hotel for 3 nights. The staff mostly young women that help alot with everything: From providing detailed explanations of attractions and tours till an assistance on toll road. They create a very pleasant atmosphere. For example, on Saturday I asked where can I buy milk that we need for the early morning coffe, since than, every night they put a tray of coffee and warm milk in thermos next to our room. Everything is perfect clean and tasteful. A lovely breakfast with exotic fruit pouch and eggs that made according your request. The hotel is warmly recommended.

This is a gem B&B!! In the small suburb of Cete just outside of Porto, this place is fabulous! The inside is very modern and the rooms are quite spacious. Breakfast is a feast each morning. The train station in town afforded us free parking and an easy way into town each morning. We were spoiled at this location.

Beautifully appointed inn that is spotless with lots of character. Delicious breakfast, helpful and friendly staff. Nice way to stay in small town with quick access to Porto.

Staff were very helpful and welcoming. Room was well equipped with drinks and biscuits available in the corridor. Breakfast was excellent. We also had a dinner (needs prior arrangement) which was excellent but quite expensive. The swimming pool was quite small but good for children. The listed gateway to the property was very narrow. We took the train to central Porto - an easy 35 min journey. ATM and bakery 10mins walk away.

Our stay was fantastic. The staff warm and welcoming. The owners have done an excellent job maintaining the property. Their attention to detail is amazing. We have never seen anything like it. That is including 5 star hotels. They made our stay feel like home. Our children loved relaxing at the pool and interacting with the staff. This was our favorite place to stay in Portugal. Solar Egas Moniz is deserving of a 5 star rating. We shall return someday.

I traveled to Portugal in May, and I had a wonderful stay in Penafiel, at Solar Egas Moniz. The owner and staff were extraordinarily welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The hotel is a charming manor house with a beautiful stained glass window and offers a quiet and peaceful local experience. The hotel is located 1 km from the Cete train station, and approx. thirty minutes by car to Porto. I stayed in a bright and comfortable room in the main house. It contained a nice, firm bed, exposed brick wall, cable/satellite TV and free Wifi, and a beautiful view. There is a library, wine room with snacks, and a cute wood burning stove in the house. Breakfast and dinner were served in a delightful dining room; the food was really delicious and the service excellent. The surrounding property includes a garden, outdoor swimming pool, and a children's playground. It was quite lovely. The owner and her employees provided exceptional guest service, anticipating and full-filling all of my wishes and needs. They were so attentive and considerate. Everything possible was done to make my visit perfect. I can't recommend Solar Egas Moniz more highly! Thank you Iva and Joana for a delightful and memorable experience! Tips: If you need to do laundry (and who doesn't when traveling with a suitcase full of dirty clothes), there is an extremely good laundress in Penafiel. There is a really nice taxi driver that services the hotel (Fernando) There is a new, good, casual restaurant in Penafiel.

Hotel muito bonito e bem cuidado. Decoração temática nos quartos, de muito bom gosto. Funcionários educados, prestativos e atenciosos. Serviço impecável. Café da manhã servido em local tranquilo, aconchegante, bem decorado e com detalhes charmosos nas mesas. Ótima variedade de itens no café da manhã. O dono é muito gentil e atencioso. Foi uma ótima hospedagem, uma experiência muito agradável. Próximo ao Mosteiro do Salvador de Paço do Sousa, faz parte da Rota do Românico.

Hotel que nos faz sentir acolhidos como se estivéssemos numa casa de amigos queridos. Quartos muito limpos e delicadamente decorados, nós ficamos no quarto "namorados". Café da manhã delicioso e afetuoso com a atenção de Paula, Joana e Patrícia. Fomos recepcionados pela amável Iva. O hotel atende a todas as necessidades que se busca: limpeza, atendimento, beleza (muita beleza), tranquilidade local e da região. Estacionamento gratuito. Possui restaurantes e cafeterias na região ( os que fomos tinham preços beeem honestos). Fica a cerca de 30 minutos de carro de Porto.
