Pena D'Água Boutique Hotel & Villas features a fitness centre, a garden and a sun terrace with swimming pool and buffet breakfast in Covilhã. Offering a restaurant, the property also has a shared lounge, as well as a sauna and a hammam. Free WiFi is available and private parking can be arranged at an extra charge.

The area is popular for skiing, and bike hire is available at this 4-star hotel. After some weeks on the road and working for festivals, we arrived at Peña d'Água for what was supposed to be one night of wellness, good food and a nice bed. We got so much more! At the reception we were given a warm welcome and felt immediately at ease. We enjoyed some relaxing massages and had dinner in the hotel restaurant. Sommelier Rubén gave us interesting information about both the food and the wine. The food itself was made with love and great detail, the wine, an Azorean bestseller, was sublime! After our first night it was quite rainy so we enjoyed a late breakfast, watched some movies in our room and did a tour of the the new hand lab, a wool museum and art gallery. The people from the hotel told us about a sunset party happening in the hotel the day after.. so we booked another night! This day we first went hiking on rota das faias, as the receptionist suggested, and had lunch at Cafe Central in Manteigas, after which we walked around in the glacial river Praia. When we arrived back at the hotel, we noticed a problem with our brakes. The receptionists again were so helpful and got us an appointment with a garage the day after. We then enjoyed the party, tried the local gin, had very good food and mingled with the sweet people of the hotel team, their friends and other guests. We met the family who owns the hotel and had a lovely night! Since it took more time, we booked another night, went hiking up the mountain overlooking covilha and visited Praia fluvial as suggested, yet another amazing day with great breakfast, astonishing views of Covilha and everything we could ever ask for. If you are looking for a cosy family business place to be pampered, feel close to nature and taste amazing dishes and wines, you are at the right spot! We loved everything from the atmosphere to the hotel's interior design, developed by the owners' son. Peña d'água truly deserves the highest rating.

Some Madre de Água rooms feature a seating area and all come with a private bathroom equipped with slippers, bathrobe and free Portuguese toiletries. This is small family hotel with great pool and very good vine and food. If you need anything more for breakfast, they serve you. Staff is also great. On our trip over Portugal we have stayed in five 4 star hotels (mostly small like this) and this was the best.

Situated in Serra da Estrela Nature Park’s mountains, this design hotel offers mountain-view rooms with amenities including an LCD TV. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel.

Casa das Penhas Douradas’ wood-paneled rooms feature large picture windows and a furnished veranda with mountain views. Each is equipped with a satellite TV. Connected rooms for families are available upon request. Found this place somewhat randomly and spent 3 night in their basic rooms, with the deck. The architecture, interior design, food, and most importantly service were impeccable and very high value for the money we spent. Especially the staff.. they went above an beyond to make sure you felt welcome and pampered. Great location if you want to spend a bit of time away and up in the mountains (hills) of Portugal. Highly recommended. p.s. We did make a stop for dinner at the higher rated (5 star) hotel owned by the same group. This location compared to that felt nicer. Both the interior design and people felt a lot warmer here.
