A Muralha - Almeida

Very pleasant welcome, clean and tidy hotel, efficient restaurant and bar staff and value for money. If the restaurant is busy with lots of people, it is obvious that that is a good sign of quality. We were made to feel very welcome, complete with free complimentary drinks. Definitely the place to stay when visiting historical sites in and around Almeida.

Horrible service. We had to wait to eat (30min and in that time the smell in the lobby was very bad. Something like fried oil/ fried patatoes... We are portugueses and only stayed there because Almeida's offer is very limited in summer months. The food it was also very bad... There were a big group inside the restaurant and we leave, thinking that must be the cause of the mess.

It is near the Spanish border, prices are reasonable I would suggest bacalao a bras, it is a fish dish with potatoes and onion, the staff are friendly and helpful, and they speak Spanish also. Desserts are very good especially crema catalana.

The food is quite abundant so be careful when ordering. The Muralha cod fish was very good, and the clams were good altho quite a few hadn't opened.

Not good, not extremely bad. Very loudy. The staff do the barely minimum. The food was ok. Will not return.
