On the prettiest square in the centre

The Hotel da Oliveira is on Largo da Oliveira, in the heart of the World Heritage historic centre. The church of Nossa Senhora da Oliveira is a minute's walk away, the Dukes' palace eight and the castle ten. Each room or suite is dedicated to a figure or tradition of Guimarães, with designer pieces that sit alongside the stone of the building.

Rooms and apartments

There are junior and luxury suites, such as the Suite Lux, of about 45 m², with two beds and a separate sitting room, looking onto the courtyards and lanes of the centre. About 50 m from the hotel it also has two HOOL apartments, of about 40 m², with a small kitchen, air conditioning and wifi; one of them has two floors, with a small terrace over the square. Guests in the apartments check in and have breakfast at the hotel.

Getting there without a car

It is the accommodation for walking to everything: from the railway station it is about 20 minutes on foot. The centre is pedestrianised; if you come by car, leave it in a public car park such as the one at Largo Condessa Mumadona and continue on foot. The HOOL restaurant is on the ground floor.
