Pousada do Marvao

About Pousada do Marvao

The new Pousada first opened its doors to the public in September 1967, with a small extension, increasing the number of rooms to 8 and glassing in the terrace for use as a restaurant. From 8 rooms it grew to 13 rooms in 1987, using the space provided by a small garden adjoining the dining room, and to 28 doubles and one suite in 1992, after a closure of 15 months for extension and conversion works. A panoramic terrace was also added and all rooms were re-equipped with a mini-bar, radio satellite television, and direct telephone, heating, air conditioning and hair dryers. Again, in 2003 some changes started to happen, due to the acquisition of an old house adjoining the Pousada. 5 bedrooms were improved by adding a small balcony in each one. 2 suites and a living room were built and the bar balcony was covered in order to be more comfortable, protected from the weather conditions

The small traditional houses of Marvi??o, a medieval town with walls dating from the thirteenth century, seem to squeeze the narrow little streets that wind between them. The two village houses that have been comfortably converted into a Pousada offer an exceptionally beautiful panorama from the reception rooms and certain bedrooms.
