Loved our overnight stay in an upgraded room with fantastic views of the church opposite and lake in the distance. Immaculately clean and tastefully furnished room with a nice balcony to take in the views. The restaurant offers good choices and we enjoyed lovely quality meals. The breakfast buffet was also very good. Parking was at the front of the hotel.
Located in the Peneda-Gerês National Park, Lagoa Azul do Geres offers apartments and rooms overlooking Albufeira da Caniçada and the outdoor pool.

The property was central, the staff were lovely, it was clean. It would have been brilliant in its heyday, but is now rather tired looking.
We loved that our room looked out over gushing water, great sound.

It was clean and felt bigger than on the pictures.
Even though a bit far from the accommodation, the pool was great.
The hotel parking is an extra but a good deal.
The bedrooms, a terrace and the breakfast room at Hotel Eco Salvador offer panoramic views of the surrounding Cávado River and hills. Offering an outdoor pool, it is 5 minutes’ walk from a small...

Great location, nice balcony with view. Comfy room. Good breakfast.
Located in the centre of Vila do Geres, just 20 metres away from the local thermal baths, Central Jardim offers traditionally decorated rooms.

Adelaide Hotel- Geres
A maze of buildings and staircases, hotel on a narrow road steep hill. Good amount of parking. Room and bathroom large with balcony and clean. Breakfast good, scrambled eggs available. Geres town is only a 5 minute walk but could be tricky as steep hill and stairs. Overall the town was slightly disappointing, although there are a number of restaurants some were closed on certain days. Very few shops and not too much going on, obviously this was out of season so maybe different at other times of year. Swimming pool is 15 minute walk but down the hill into town and uphill to reach it, can take car instead.

We came on the bus from Braga. Actually, there was a one-day strike and we took a taxi. We took the bus back. The bus runs infrequently and you have to buy the ticket on the bus. Once in Geres, if you don't have a car, you can find out about the trails from the tourist info center so you can get into the park. We also opted for a 4 hr tour with Carlos at Lobos Tours and it was worth the $40 to see all the parts of the park and some of the small villages and the waterfalls. He was born and raised there and has alot of knowledge of the area. One bummer of the visit was the Parque de Termas is only open intermittently and was closed when we were there. Apparently this is a problem. If you want a hot spring dip, you need to go to the Spanish border. Not far away, but need transport. It is a nice village overall.

Geres is a unique place where you can see nature in its best, there are so many attractions even on low-session, and plenty of native restaurants along all routes, i have been there for 5/6 years in a row and I am still impressed with the place as you can see my own photographs attached.

Rio Caldo on the lower edge of the park is stunning.
Rio Caldo on the lower edge of the park is stunning. Views are amazing. There are plenty of bars and cafes, and a small well stocked supermarket. It has a good public transport network. We hired a kayak twice during our stay with AML.

Don't try to go to Geres for a long weekend, it's not enough time but if that's all you have, then don't miss it! Amazing hiking and quaint villages all around. We chased waterfalls for 3 days and loved it.
The Sao Bento da Porta Aberta Sanctuary was so unique and loved the juxtaposition of the old and new churches. Stunning tiles in the new museum.
We also had a quick stop at the Vilarinho das Furnas dam. We love dams but still cool to see. A short easy walk from the dam is a cute waterfall and a perfect spot for a picnic.
Keep your eyes peeled for wild horses and shepherds with their cows and goats.
The town of Geres itself is small but I really enjoyed a quick stroll around town and found some great artisan shops to get souvenirs.

We had a fantastic time in Geres.
We had a fantastic time in Geres. The staff at Baltazar Hotel were extremely helpful and kind- especially Orlando. We had a challenging and beautiful hike and spent one afternoon with a guide who showed us so much of the park. The food and generosity of the Baltazar staff was wonderful. We would come back for a longer stay next time and recommend to anyone.

Very nice picturesque location, beautiful lake at the bottom...
Very nice picturesque location, beautiful lake at the bottom of the surrounding mountains near the hotel. Hotel was very clean, and big. I was pleasantly surprised. Polite man at the reception when we got there, very attentive and prompt when requests were made. My only advise to anyone checking out in the early hours, e.g. around 03.30am is to allow extra time because there may not be anyone readily available as they will be carrying out other tasks (as the polite lady mentioned when the bell at reception wasnt attended to with the usual promptness). Other than that, extremely wonderful stay
The property is beautiful and offers one of the best views we can have from the lake . The concept of the house is brilliant and provides all comfort and peace a big family needs. We loved and we will return next year. This kind of accommodation is truly adequate for large families that seek some quality time together bot far from the marvelous nature of Gerês. Several tracks not far away and the center a couple of minutes far .
All family is Missing it already ….,
This is a terrific property. Very clean and comfortable, great facilities and much bigger than it looks on the outside. Location is terrific, very close to views of the mountains and of the lake. It's also easy to access by car and has good local amenities - a little grocer 2 mins walk away and the restaurant at the Hotel Sau Bento offers good food at decent value a 5 minute walk away. It's an ideal spot for exploring the Geres-Peneda National Park.
Great location for travelling around the Peneda Geres national park. The staff were attentive and friendly and gave us good suggestions for places to visit in the area. Very comfortable room with large balcony overlooking the beautiful sanctuary. The in house restaurant was excellent with great food and service. The spa was a great bonus and I had an amazing massage.
We will definitely be back on our next visit to the area.
Spacious villa, everything was very well furnished
Lovely terrace overlooking the river
In a scenic part of Geres, right by the two bridges, but very quiet
Small cafe / supermarket on the other side of the bridge in walking distance
Awesome restaurant (O Sobreiro) within walking distance
Own jetty that you can use for a quick swim
Very friendly hosts
Location and staff were amazing. The hotel is comfortable with everything you need for a good price. Breakfast was delicious with Portuguese pastry. Parking was easy, there’s a bar right in front of the hotel with free parking that worked great when the hotel parking was full. Staff also were kind to help us in that.
Amazing location and staff - very helpful and friendly. Breakfast went above and beyond expectations. Room very nice and clean, small but definitely spacious enough. Bathroom bigger than expected. Overall, really great stay with all of Geres (incl some of the hiking trails around) at just a few steps away
The location in the middle of the compact Geres village was excellent, close to the bus stops, restaurants, etc. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable, all facilities worked with no problem, and my room even happened to have a nice view towards the hills.
Good location, with garage for parking.
Comfortable bed, full bathroom, spacious bedroom with nice view and small balcony.
Hotel has 2 very pleasant lounges/ common rooms downstairs. Good heating in the bathroom, good water quality and pressure in all taps.
Excellent accommodation, probably one of the best we have stayed in and we travel a lot in Spain and Portugal. The facilities were really good and outside areas were amazing with excellent views. Very comfortable , could not fault it at all
The view was amazing. The rooms are ok although a bit small. Clean and central if you want to stay in Geres. Good value for money. And the restaurant below the hotel was an extra plus as it is good and cheap!
First impression was that this was a really lovely apartment. Geres is a good center to see the lovely park. The manager did reply to our problems and complaints quickly but without resolve.
Very clean and comfortable 2 bedroom apartment in Gerês. Great service from the administrator Cecília. Quiet place and beautiful views. Fully equipped kitchen. Decent Wi Fi.
