Pousada de Valenca do Minho Sao Teotonio  

Perched on Valença do Minho's fortified walls on the Portugal–Spain frontier, this Pousada commands views over the Vale do Rio Minho and the cathedral of Tui. It sits atop the historic centre, a short walk from landmarks like the church of Santa Maria dos Anjos and the Church of Santo Estêvão.

Opened in 1962 and designed by Joao de Mello Breyner Andresen, the Pousada blends classic architecture with cozy, grand fireplaces in the drawing room. Guest rooms feature air conditioning, TV, telephone, minibar, hairdryer and private balconies or terraces. The feel is historic, welcoming and quietly scenic.

On-site restaurant and bar, parking and 24-hour reception keep stays fuss-free. Balconies and terraces bring the valley views right to your room.

Meeting room and wireless Internet access support small meetings and work stays. Telephone and round-the-clock reception add extra convenience.

The Pousada offers an on-site restaurant and bar for relaxed meals and drinks after exploring the fortress town.
