Perched above the city of Braga, Castelo Bom Jesus is the real world Cinderella Castle. A balcony on the world. The owners coat of arms shows the arms of the Royal House of Portugal. You will likely meet the owners, a very kind, extremely polite gentleman - Mr. Manuel Castro Meirelles - and his family.
This Hotel has three different types of rooms: Double Standards, Junior Suites, Royal Suites. No two rooms are alike. We recommend the Junior Suites or the Royal Suites, with the Junior Suites featuring very large balconies overlooking the gardens. The Royal Suites boast unique views over the city as they are located in the towers of the Castle, directly overlooking the city. Each room has its own name, each tells a different story or memory in the life and culture of the owners. Children under 14 only per special request.
You will find outstanding local restaurants serving Portuguese cuisine and international delicacies. And the desserts… absolutely the very best you will ever have, ever. Very warm, friendly people, the Portuguese cherish their tourist guests. The welcome is genuine. Local museums will showcase precious art, antiques, the art of jewel making - Portugal’s goldsmiths fabricate most intricate, elaborate 24 k gold jewelry with unequaled skill. And the National Park of Gerês, 20 miles away is awesome. Natural pools dot high mountain streams, where you will swim that crystalline, pure mountain water. Waterfalls. Incredible scenery. And Roman ruins, from the times of Caesar 3 miles from the Hotel.
Please watch the Castelo bom Jesus flash slideshows - you will feel the same romance other guests have felt - and then read our guest testimonials. That will be all you will need!
