Desde o momento da chegada até ao derradeiro momento da partida, a experiência neste hotel revelou-se absolutamente irrepreensível. O quarto foi um autêntico refúgio de serenidade e elegância. O equilíbrio entre o design contemporâneo e o antigo proporcionam o máximo conforto e de bem-estar, criando uma atmosfera de requinte promovendo uma memória duradoura. Tudo respira harmonia. O SPA é um verdadeiro refúgio de tranquilidade… O jardim é um lugar que convida à pausa, à leitura ou simplesmente admirar a natureza envolvente. Por fim, é impossível não destacar a simpatia, a dedicação e o profissionalismo dos funcionários. Em suma, é um verdadeiro refúgio de charme no coração da aldeia de Chãos.

Modernidade e conforto na zona rural do Fundão.

Passamos alguns dias em uma das vilas e gostamos muito, a cama e o sofá cama eram muito confortáveis, havia muito espaço nos armários do quarto, boa ducha e como levamos nossa cadela, tinha caminha e potes para comida disponíveis. Especial elogio para a Sandra, super atenciosa e prestativa. O café da manhã, que chegava em cestos, era bastante farto. Destaco os pães, o sumo de laranja feito na hora e os deliciosos queijo curado da região e doces caseiros. Como crítica, pensamos que faltam lugares para pendurar os casacos na sala e um pouco mais de utensílios de cozinha. Na casa de banho também seria bom ter prateleiras ou um apoio maior. Como ficamos na vila adaptada para pessoas com mobilidade reduzida (não era nosso caso) e somos uma família de pessoas altas, a pia e a sanita acabam por ser muito baixos. Mas nada que tenha comprometido a nossa estadia. Aproveitamos bem a jacuzzi interior e não fizemos uso da sala de estar nem do bar mas são espaços aconchegantes e muito bem decorados. Não há opções de restauração próximas mas o Fundão fica a menos de 10 minutos de carro. Também há delivery de pizza e de algumas outras opções. A região tem muitos trilhos, aldeias históricas, praias fluviais no verão e a Serra da Estrela no inverno.
