Conde D'Agueda — Hotel in Águeda

I was so pleased with my experience at Hotel Conde d’Agueda. I am walking the full Portuguese Camino central route and the fires made it impossible for me to continue for a few days. Staying at this hotel made all the difference. ||Because of the fires, the hotel was actually short-staffed, but you wouldn’t really know it. Florbela was just the sweetest. She had a lot to manage, but she never got frustrated with the guests. She made sure I was taken care of, as well as the other Camino walkers who also had to stop walking and stay there. ||I watched her pay close attention to everyone’s needs, learning their names, and making sure they were taken care of for dinner and breakfast. She chatted with us and made jokes and made sure we checked out the really cool features of adorable Agueda. I personally loved the church in the park that she recommended I go see. ||Luciana was aLeo amazing. She remembered my name and took care of me at dinner, which was delicious, by the way. She and Florbela helped organize my taxi to the next town and I will really miss their hospitality. ||The public lounge areas are great and my room was lovely. It was a nice sized room and bathroom, with a great view of the town.||The Portuguese are going through a very stressful time right now with these fires and a lot of their friends and families are directly affected by them. To extend such hospitality to foreigners goes above and beyond anything. I was truly touched by all of that.|| I highly...

A couple of us stayed over night after being at a wedding nearby. I called ahead of time to inform them that we wouldn’t be arriving at normal check in time because of the wedding and the receptionist told me it wasn’t a problem. Either way, he took down our names and told us they had staff at the front desk 24 hours. The check in was easy and quick. There was free parking and access to the lobby as well as the rooms. The rooms were clean, we had free breakfast included, and the staff was friendly. I was impressed by the great water pressure in the bathroom because it is rare to find a hotel with it. The rooms were comfortable and quiet. The hotel is extremely close to the street with umbrellas. I would...

We stayed here two nights and are glad we did as it’s perfectly situated and one of the nicer hotels in the region particularly at this price point. Our room was small but clean, well appointed and super comfortable with a nice view. Hotel staff were friendly, competent and super helpful with good English. Hotel breakfast met our needs fully. This hotel punches above its weight. Agueda is a lively, fun town and a good base for the area with plentiful restaurant and bar choices. We enjoyed watching a Benfica Champions League match at Sebastian’s Cafe one night and a quiet dinner at Telhas e Canecos another night. Walking to both was easy from the centrally located hotel. People could...
