Hotel do Elevador

Can't sleep. My room is 109 and under restaurant. It have sound of drag chair over my head since 7pm until after midnight. Already told reception, restaurant staff but they can't do anything. It still noisy and make irritated me too much. Don't recommend for anyone.

Muito solícitos.

Even though the hotel is old, it has what’s needed for a short stay. Every staff member is friendly and accommodating. We had an early bus and they opened the restaurant an hour earlier to ensure we ate before leaving.

I grew up in Braga and Hotel do Elevador, in the beautiful Bom Jesus do Monte, was a real iconic hotel, back in the 60's and early 70's, either to stay or for a dinner in the beautiful covered veranda. After I moved abroad I tried to stay there, during a visit to family, to no avail. When I arrived I was told that they had a wedding in the garden and it would therefore be too noisy (they never bothered to inform me about that fact, even if I booked short before arrival!). I was then told to stay one of their other hotels nearby, Hotel do Templo, but the room was very gloomy and my whole experience was ruined! When I decided to visit Braga once again I thought that giving it another try, for old times' sake, would be a good idea. Wrong........ The hotel is rather rundown nowadays and I ended up staying in four rooms, during my 3 day stay, two in Hotel do Elevador and two again in Hotel do Templo. The receptionists did they best to try to solve the problems, the management did very little. Dinner was not that good either! This is an experience I will never repeat ever again!

The Hotel is need of some modernisation in the rooms BUT it was clean and functional. The staff were all extremely friendly and the evening meal fabulous. The breakfast choice was limited but perfectly fine and all fresh. A great location and would certainly staff again in the future. In addition - one of the young men behind reception lent me his i-phone charger which saved the day for me!!!!

loved the view from the top and the surroundings. very pretty and quiet hotel

Very bad experience with the Rooms are under the restaurant, so many time noisy from people walk , run and drag the table on the wood floor at all the time. Can not sleep but expensive paid We are 3 of us drive far from algarve to Braga that we need to sleep. Since we check in till Midnight they still noisy Bang Bang Bang !! Crashhh!!! On the floor. No more next time Terrible Reception can not solve any problems Just say sorry 5 minutes, 10 Minutes Sorry !!!

Happy with this place. The price was extremely reasonable considering you step out of the hotel on to the esplanade of the Bom Jesus complex and the views from the room and breakfast room are amazing. Some previous reviewers commented on the decor needing a facelift. Yeah, but then you’d have to pay a lot more. We had a huge triple room and it was clean and perfectly acceptable. Breakfast was plenty good enough. Didn’t use any other facilities so can’t comment.

Para quem gosta da excelente gastronomia portuguesa tradicional com toque de modernidade e com um serviço clássico sem falhas não tem lugar melhor para jantar em Braga. Ainda com vistas fabulosas sobre Braga desde um sítio mágico que é Bom Jesus.
