MERTOLA CASTELO PALACE (AU$57): 2019 Prices & Reviews (Portugal) - Photos of Lodge

Stayed here for the first three days of our holiday to just rest up enjoy the scenery and walks. Perfect. The owner sat with us at breakfast, sorted us out a superb bit of bird watching despite the rain and ensured we were well sorted out in understanding the confusing differences in Portugal, such as sizes of meals. All these things got us off to a very good start on a tour of the region. Take care we hope to see you again.…

Unpleasant reception

Cozy place, nice home design and clean, good location and view. BUT: First the location is confuse to get there bc GPS gives you a way by the historical streets and by car you cannot get there. You should turn back and get out from Mértola and at the bridge turn left when you see "Casa Visconde de Bouzões". In the internet appears with parking area but the truth is that you have to park outside in the declined streets. I have booked a room that included "2 singles beds, 1 double bed and a sofa", but the suite had only 1 single bed and not 2. We are 4 person, traveling and we payed for 4 bed so we wanted a solution.

The room had lots of ants and my friend woke up with them walking in the bed. They loose with this actitud.…

Charming B&B

This small B&B, 5 rooms only, is situated inside the walls of the old city. The interior is rustic and authentic. The atmosphere is friendly. Breakfast is not optional, but may be ordered.

Very friendly and quiet

On arrival we got lost in the tiny streets so they came out to find us and showed us where we could park - just outside!! As we were the only guests we were offered the choice of two rooms. Both lovely. The breakfast was fresh and a good choice. Very kind and nothing was too much trouble. Very quiet area with beautiful views over the Guadiana River.…

Quirky family run B&B in a unique location

Castelo Inn is a charming old house with a unique location inside the old city walls in Mertola. It is within walking distance of all the major attractions and the small bars and restaurants of the town. The rooms are spacious and cool with ensuite bathrooms. Parking can be an issue but we managed to find a spot just a minute away from the house. …
