Chaves There are many reasons that attract you to this city, however we want to share a selection of experiences that perfectly translate the authenticity of this destination, having our hotel as a starting point. This picturesque town invites you for pleasant walks. A few meters away and with privileged access, you will find the thermal water source and the Thermal Spa of Chaves , where you can take the opportunity to taste the thermal water that gushes at about 70ºC, or perform various relaxing and medicinal treatments .

Kilometer 0 Clear your mind as you walk along the verdant riverside area, or venture out on a risky walk on the fillies carved by the Romans, challenging the current of the Tâmega . Opt for a safer and more breathtaking passage, through one of the most emblematic and ancient monuments of Chaves, the Roman Bridge of Trajano , stopping further on to photograph the landmark that marks kilometer 0 of the only national road that connects Portugal from North to South.

Art & History Take a few more steps and find the Nadir Afonso Museum of Contemporary Art or a historic center with not only medieval vestiges, in the Igreja Matriz , but also Baroque ones, in the Igreja da Misericórdia . These pedestrian crossings link history to gastronomy, from the Castle and Keep , passing through narrow alleys covered by balconies and roofs, where brightly colored rustic houses sprout and traditional commerce thrives. Let yourself be convinced by the aromas that invade the nose and start tasting the traditional flavors, experiencing the best of Trás-os-Montes gastronomy: typical Pastéis de Chaves , Folar Trás-os-Montes and regional bread, garnished with smoked meat of excellence and comforting wines.
