Hotel Mira Sagres — Hotel in Vila do Bispo

We stayed two nights.||Pros: good size room comfortable twin beds. Adequate power points. Good cupboard space. Fridge. TV. Air Conditioning. Safe.||Bathroom is modern and functional with the shower over the bath.||Balcony outside with chairs and small table. Grass lawn with tables and chairs outside the rooms. spa. Indoor swimming pool. Gym.|Elevator |The staff are generally friendly but can be a bit curt at times at reception. They speak good English.||Breakfast buffet is quite reasonable with a hot option of eggs.||The hotel is situated at the top of a hill near a square and is opposite an interesting 15th century church which is also worth a visit. A Lidl supermarket is about 10 minutes walk away.||Cons: The water in the shower takes a while to heat up and does not appear to get hot although it is adequately warm.| |In summary this hotel is very comfortable and pleasant and certainly lives well up to its 3 star designation. I highly recommend this...

My advice: Look around for something cheaper that has more character and a flexible cancellation policy. If you do book, read...

This is a good place to stay for a night or two, well located, in room Wi-Fi, clean and reasonably spacious rooms. Ours had a terrace which was nice and we enjoyed the use of the indoor pool. No tea making facilities in room. My main feeling is that the place lacks ‘heart’ and feels a bit claustrophobic . Feels a bit jaded and like a hotel for people on business trips. The breakfast was ok , but not the best . Oh and watered down, concentrated orange juice just isn’t on in a country replete with fresh oranges. Everywhere else we stayed served wonderful freshly squeezed juice. The dining area was so small that people were seated blocking access to the...
