Very cosy hotel! Nice and pleasant staff. We had the whole hotel for us alone. Excellent dinner, worth the price!

I had the pleasure to meet Mr Luis Pinheiro manager of Hotel Belsol in Belmonte, Portugal. He's a top class professional with over 50 years of experience in the tourism and hospitality. He has tons of interesting stories to tell, so many that we spent over one hour chatting. The hotel has a nice pool, which has an amazing and hard to put in word view. The breakfast is the only remark that I can say that might need some improvement. The prices are in line with the experience I had. I summary, all you can expect for a 3 star hotel, with a 5 stars service. I strongly recommend.
