O Castelo de Guimarães começou por um mosteiro mandado construir por Mumadona Dias no século X, antes, portanto, da formação de Portugal. Como os ataques dos mouros eram frequentes decidiram construir uma muralha para proteger a comunidade e os monges que viviam no seu interior. Foi esta fortaleza que deu origem ao Castelo de Guimarães. Mais tarde, no século XII, foi neste castelo que nasceu Dom Afonso Henriques que viria a ser o primeiro rei de Portugal. Com a falta de uso o castelo foi-se degradando. Recentemente foi recuperado e classificado como Monumento Nacional. É também considerado Patrimônio Mundial pela UNESCO. Um lugar cheio de história e que foi berço de Portugal. Não é à toa que em um pedaço da muralha original tem os dizeres “Aqui nasceu Portugal”.

The Castle of Guimarães began with a monastery built by Mumadona Dias in the 10th century, before, therefore, the formation of Portugal. As the attacks of the Moors were frequent they decided to build a wall to protect the community and the monks that lived inside. It was this fort that gave origin to the Castle of Guimarães. Later, in the twelfth century, it was in this castle that Dom Afonso Henriques was born. Some years after he would become the first king of Portugal. With the lack of use the castle was degrading. Recently it was recovered and classified as National Monument. It is also considered World Heritage by UNESCO. A place full of history and that was cradle of Portugal. It is no wonder that in a piece of the original wall has the words "Here was born Portugal".

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were great, breakfast was great, incredible decor, everything was superb!"

Park Hotel Porto Aeroporto

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely friendly customer focused staff! Two minute walk to the airport terminal and two minute walk to the metro to downtown and parking right out front !!!! I stayed out at the airport rather than downtown so I wouldn't have to find a place to park my car. This hotel was absolutely perfect or stop in a long journey all around Portugal."

YOTEL Porto

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is pretty new. It’s very modern. The layout of the room is efficient and does not feel small. And it’s clean. We included breakfast with our stay and this is definitely a win. They have a good spread of food and we enjoyed it. Highly recommend including breakfast with your stay. Only comment I could say is the water in the shower is scalding hot even when the dial is on cold it’s still hot. I didn’t like that as I don’t take hot shower. I had to shower super fast. The hotel is about a 15 minutes walk to the center of Porto. "
