The views were stunning. The bathroom was modern, and there was quite a bit of space in the studio apartment. It would be great for a couple or a solo traveler who needs to work remotely (there is a big desk). You could make do for a family of 3 as there is a comfy day bed in the living room. The restaurant is directly below the studio, so it’s convenient for dining. The breakfast was generous.

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. 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.

Just being here gives a lift to the soul!
Just being here gives a lift to the soul! It is beautiful, everyone is so friendly, every winding street you walk down brought a smile to my face, and THAT VIEW!! You turn a corner and it takes your breath away. I walked here from Castelo de Vide and the path was well marked and gorgeous, with birds of prey hovering and I even saw what I think is an Egyptian mongoose.... Lots of beautiful arts and crafts and good restaurants. I stayed at the Estalagem de Marvao which couldnt be faulted, really beautiful and friendly. Totally recommended (tho some parts of the town walls are not for the faint hearted - but there are plenty of steps down if it gets too much for the vertiginous!).
The property exceeded the expectations. It is a house full of stories to tell. The owner José Andrade is very friendly and available to help with suggestions and knowledge about the region. The breakfast was good. The swimming pool was available, unfortunately the weather did not help in November. From our room we had line of sight to Marvão, marvelous to see the morning and the night of this city from our window. It is possible to visit the farm with the guidance of the owner. A place to return in the future.
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.
The hotel is centrally located. Great view right with outdoor restaurant seating. We parked our car right in front. The room suite was big and clean. We even have our own private elevator! We ate dinner at their restaurant. Delicious local cuisine. Portions were big. We could have shared but loved the varieties. Amazing sunrise view from the room windows in the morning. Breakfast was ok. Owner is friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay.
Check-in/out with Sonia was easy and she was very welcoming. We really appreciated her kind gifts of bread, chorizo, jams and red wine - all of which were delicious.
It is a lovely house with everything you need to self-cater. It has a fabulous outdoor area with lots of seating, a swimming pool with loungers and a BBQ. The location is very scenic and ideal to visit Marväo and Castelo de Vide. We would have loved to have stayed longer.
A wonderful and enchanting place to stay in the small hilltop village of Marvao! We had the entire house and it was like living in a fairytale. We watched the sunset on one side of the castle and the moonrise from our terrace. Stunning! The full eclipse of the moon was in the early morning so I walked alone through the walled village but the moon had already set and it was just me, a white cat and two birds in the pre dawn stillness.
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!
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.
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.
Cute pousada at the top of Marvão. Footsteps from the castle walls. Employees were very polite and welcoming. We got an upgrade for our room which was pretty nice. Beautiful views.
Breakfast was good.
They had a jacuzzi which we didn't use.
Free public parking right next to the hotel.
I liked the location, the view from the window, the apartment is spacious with enough space fro family of five. The host is very friendly and welcoming, she shared some information about Marvao to make our stay even better.
To start with: the setting and view were mind blowing. What an amazing place Marvao is. The owners of the Varansa's true passion is to deliver true quality. The rooms were spotlessly clean. Breakfast amazing.
What a great view from the window! Hotel is in a nice area with a pretty river that goes to an old bridge and tower.
Bathroom is good, beds are comfy and there are many plugs. WiFi was good.
