Location
The 3-star Casa Saramago Hotel Monsaraz is 6 minutes' walk from the Hermitage of São Bento and offers a summer terrace and a picnic area. Providing access to an outdoor swimming pool as well as canoeing, hiking, and fishing, this quaint hotel is located in close proximity to the Telheiro.
Such city attractions as the Urban and Traditional Center of Monsaraz, which is just 1.7 km from the guest house, and the Church of Our Lady of the Lagoon, which is a mere 1.8 km away, are well worth a visit. Historical sites in the area include the beaten Monsaraz Castle, situated 20 minutes' walk away. The Casa Saramago is 3.5 km from the Monsaraz River Beach.
Certain rooms have soundproof windows along with a writing desk for guests' convenience. Providing a bidet and a separate toilet, some bathrooms are also equipped with hair dryers and bath sheets.
The restaurant O Compadre lies fairly close to Casa Saramago Hotel.
Review by hotel critic
I recently had the pleasure of staying at a lovely farmhouse near Monsaraz for a family vacation. The traditional accommodations provided ample space for my family, and we appreciated the well-kept ambiance. Each morning, we enjoyed a simple yet satisfying breakfast featuring fresh bread, cheeses, and local hams - perfect fuel for our daily explorations. The highlight of our stay was the welcoming atmosphere created by the cheerful staff, who promptly addressed our requests. Our children particularly enjoyed the inviting swimming pool, an oasis during the Alentejo heat. The hotel's proximity to Monsaraz allowed us to experience the unique local culture. We attended the Monsaraz Museu Aberto, which captivated my kids with its engaging exhibits and rich history. Evenings were spent listening to local music, further enriching our family's experience. While the surrounding area requires a vehicle for exploration, the facilities offered were quite suitable for families. With one child under 16 and another under 2, we found the environment calm and accommodating. I look forward to returning once the pool is fully open for even more family fun.
