What a beautiful place! It was absolutely fantastic staying up in the walled village of Marvao. Very nice, clean, comfortable accommodation and we enjoyed the view from our room. There is parking very close. Breakfast was very good and included scrambled eggs as well as the continental. The owner is very hands on and always making sure that your needs are met. The restaurant where you have breakfast is across the street and has very good views as well. The streets are very narrow and quaint. It is so easy to walk around and up to the castle. This is a fantastic, intact castle with views going as far as Spain. I would definitely go back to Marvao. Give yourself at least 2 days so that you can explore and then just relax and enjoy the lovely gardens below the castle.
Located 2.8 km from Roman City of Ammaia, Casa O Arco Alojamento Local offers free WIFI in Marvão. The kitchen has an oven, a microwave and a toaster and there is a private bathroom.

We stayed at Quinta d'Abegoa's apartment, Casa do Souto, which is very cosy and ideal for two people. Everything is really well thought out so the apartment felt bigger than it actually was. The bed is very comfortable and the shower is excellent. The outside space is beautiful - we loved sitting out, listening to the birds and the bells from the sheep, while enjoying the views of the both the castle and over towards the mountains and Spain. We made the most of being able to walk to restaurants in Marvao (although it is uphill all the way!) but we also cooked at the property - the kitchen is tiny but is very well-equipped and has everything you need to self-cater. Our host, Rosa, looked after us extremely well, bringing us breakfast every day, and nothing was too much trouble. We love the area around Marvao and will definitely return for another stay at Casa do Souto.
Surrounded by the natural scenery of Serra de São Mamede Natural Park, Quinta do Barrieiro - Art Selection by Maria Leal da Costa offers typical architecture combined with original artwork.

Quinta do Barrieiro had been recommended to us by friends and it did not disappoint. Our room was lovely and spacious and the bed extra comfy. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the farm dog was so gorgeous! Even though we went during winter it was still a great spot for a lovely break.
The Estalagem de Marvão is located within the historic walled town center of Marvão.

What an amazing and very special place. So unique and beautiful. The room was very comfortable and full of special touches. Location was fantastic. The host was very welcoming and explained where to go and made suggestions for restaurants. A fantastic experience we will always remember. Thank you.

This was one of our favorite stops on our 10 day trip through Portugal. From the moment you turn a corner in the approaching road and first see Marvao high up on the hilltop, the experience was magical. The town is compact, clean, and efficient. The castle and gardens with panoramic views across the hills and valleys near the border with Spain was simply breathtaking. I wish we had booked another day at this lovely hotel in this gorgeous village.

We stayed at Dom Dinis, overlooking the valley below, in December 2023. Hardly any tourists, wonderfully friendly area. Be sure to visit the church (Igreja de Santiago) of which Saramago wrote on his journey around Portugal! We ate at the excellent Varanda do Alentejo, the lamb stew was fantastic.

The castle is a must see.
The castle is a must see. The views from all directions were unobstructed and gave one the feeling of what it must have been like centuries before when the castle was used as a defensive weapon. Well worth the trip and one had access to almost the entire outer wall.

We stayed in Marvão for 3 days, 2 nights and spent the days touring around. I HIGHLY recommend taking the biking tour with Rail Bike Marvão, it's 16km through the heart of Marvão's nature.
I also HIGHLY recommend you visit the small town or Castelo de Vide.

Amazing old town and stunning castle and scenery.
Amazing old town and stunning castle and scenery. So quiet and relaxing. Even though we have been in the castle and museum, we intend to come back and do it all again because it was such an enjoyable experience.
We loved our stay at Casinha de Marvao. The house was clean and comfortable and it was really cosy with the wood burner. The kitchen was well equipped. The location was great - beautiful views towards Spain and we enjoyed being able to leave the house to wander around the town and castle in the evening to see the sunset and during the day for more exploring of the castle. We enjoyed the well marked walking trails to Portagem and Castelo de Vide and so didn’t need to use a car during our stay.
We loved this hotel.
The owner Joaquim was very friendly. He welcomed us personally with some small talk .
He gave us all the information we needed about the hotel and the village of Marvão.
The room was very spacious and very clean.
The bathroom had a big window, and was well ventilated.
Wi-fi was very good all around the room.
Breakfast was good, and served based on the request of each one of the guests.
Free parking near the hotel.
Gorgeous little house, completely redone with attention to the minimal details. very peculiar division of the space, which makes it very cozy and architecturally amazing. Everything seems to be brand new, sparkling clean, and they thought of absolutely everything a guest May want or need. The hosts Alexandra and José were fantastic. A flawless, extremely comfortable and peaceful place firm which to enjoy the magic of Marvão!
Perfect location in the heart of the old city. Intimate hotel with basics covered. Lovely staff, very helpful. Make sure you're able to carry your luggage up stairs as this is a historic building.. Small deck overlooking the ramparts with great views for sunset. Free parking right beside the hotel but be warned of the very narrow streets to get there.
Calm, quiet, excellent pool and brilliant hosts. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Breakfast was to die for - Loads of different continental options with regional products.
The Quinta is situated close to Castelo de Vide e Marvão which are lovely places to visit, however is in a remote enough location for it to feel like a break from a busy life.
Located in a beautiful country side, surrounded by nature is great location to hike or bike. It is close to Castelo de Marvao, Castelo da Vide, Menhir de Meade and other lovely medioeval towns, is a place to relax or work with creative projects. I could stay longer if I had have the time, this place is in my list for my next trip to Portugal.
First of all, the location is perfect, everything is close by. I stayed 2 nights. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious, furnished with period furniture and absolutely neat and clean. And, the main treasure is the owner of the hotel, friendly and competently solving any question of the guests. Breakfast and WI-FI are also good.
A hidden gem in a beautiful mountain village. We booked this last minute as a stopover for one night and regretted not staying longer. A small, cozy, family run hotel. The staff were really helpful and pleasant. The food was delicious and the ambience was very relaxing. You cant go wrong with this lovely hotel.
This Studio was spotless and beautifully decorated. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchenette was enough to get you going.
The staff was friendly, the grounds beautiful. A place to relax, put your feet up and Recharge.
Marvão is nearby with sites and restaurants. We will definitely be back.
Estalagem do Marvâo is a real gem and worth the drive up winding roads to get there. The beds were comfy (the absolute quiet of the town was a plus), lots of hot water and a good shower, and a lovely breakfast. We would love to come back and stay here again.
The property is beautiful and we were very comfortable . The outdoor space is great for children and the castle of Marvão is worth visiting. We enjoyed driving through Portalegre and a dip in the sever river.
Perfect location to explore Marvao. The beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent,with a lot of variety. While we didn't have time to use the hot tub, it had a gorgeous view.
