SECRETPLACES OFFERS YOU A SPECIAL DISCOUNT FOR THIS HOTEL

Located in the historical centre of the Alentejo town of Portel, Refugio da Vila is somewhat different from the usual Alentejo accommodation in that it offers a totally refined ambience, rather then the simple farmhouse comforts usually associated with the area. Not only is this a stylish hotel decorated in extremely good taste, it is also a wonderful place for lovers of good food and wine. It even has a well known cooking school under the auspices of the Master Chef Victor Mates. Here the visitor can savour regional cuisines and Portugal’s finest wines as well as learn about the art and history of regional cooking. All in all a stay here is both a gastronomic and cultural experience. Burning away those calories, however, is not difficult. Visitors have a lot to see and explore, including excursions to medieval castles, artisan studios, wineries and pretty hilltop hamlets that all help make up the Alentejo experience.

Please feel free to send us your personal hotel review on this hotel. You may wonder why all the assessments we have on line are positive. Well, apart from the simple fact that we try to include only what we consider to be the best accommodations, there’s another important reason to bear in mind. Any hotel that receives 3 negative feedbacks is automatically taken out of our selection:

First of all what was most special is the welcome and help we received during our 4-days stay. The hotel is beautiful, the decoration simple but very refined. The cooking class was fun and delicious.Our room , located in the main building, was extremely comfortable, vast, same beautiful design , private terrace with view on the hilltop castle. Excellent food, good choice of inexpensive and delicious local wines.
The price is a bargain for such accomodation and service.
