Excellent hotel, vert nice stuff. They went above and beyond to make sure we are happy and all our needs are met.
Excellent location. We did not use the car so much, many places are in walking distance.
We really enjoyed the jacuzzi in the room
We paid extra for the room but ut was worth it!

Monção is veyr pretty, with some cool thermal spas, and outdoors hot spring pools on the other side of the river. Worth a walk around the walls, that curious Portuguese combination of fabulous ancient luxury and abandoned buildings, side by side with modernist architecture and comfy parks and squares. It's faded but still glamorous and had a certain old work style about it, i enjoyed walking the walls, the flowering spring trees, the river walk, the thermal spa, a municipal service which was relaxing and fun, and good value for the time you get there, time your visit to the spa with Sunset if you can, the huge glass building ti's in, gets flooded with light, sparkling off the bubbling hot waters, the water are treated so not sulphurous smell, but this makes it more clinical an experience. Relaxing nonetheless after a long days walking and exploring this ancient citadel town. Swimming in history and charm, but for some reason the restaurants charme more than anywhere else i've been in Portugal, ,other than Lisbon, not sure what's going on there as the quality of the food isn't any different. Portuguese food is superb wherever you may eat and Monceau is no different to that, lots of local produce to eat, friendly hosts and a low key bar scene. It's a unusual place to spend a few days and a good first stop if you're interested in the hot springs of this area, of which there are many, of different types. Town is walkable, we parked outside the walls and left the car, little flat space , but the hills are easy, the views out across the river and mountain and beautiful.
Excellent hosts! They made our family feel like home and really went the extra mile. They made us eggs upon request (we are American and love eggs in the morning!), as well as went and purchased a baby bath for our little one!
Additionally, they were very knowledgeable about Moncao, northern Portugal and close by Spain as well. They provided vegetarian restaraunt recommendations, local authors and poets, and top attractions to go visit!
Rooms were very clean and overall the house is beautiful with gorgeous views!
We had a lovely stay. The whole hotel was very clean, including the rooms and the beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was good with fruit, cereals, toasts and some sweets from the region. The staff working there were absolutely caring and helpful, providing everything we needed for a wonderful stay. Even the last day that we had to leave early, Paola went out of her way to leave some fresh pastries from the village ready for us to have as breakfast. Thank you for everything, we very much enjoyed our time there.
Clean, quite and attentive staff. Good choice of food and a healthy cheap menu everyday. Simple but good breakfast. Access to spa, that is 5 mins from hotel. I had a lovely view on the garden. They have upgraded the entry with nice green colours. Outside seating available as well. Nice hotel for solo and family travellers. Near Vigo airport or you can get a taxi to Oporto. A lot of sightseeing and the Alvarinho museum
Casa 42 is located in the historic centre of Monção. The concierge / owner is very friendly and attentive. Casa 42 provides clean and functional accommodation for a very fair price. Our room was very quiet, beds were cozy, shower with excellent water pressure. Highly recommended if you want to experience this vibrant and charming border town at the river Minho.
Very close to historical center, restaurants, banks, etc. Excellent price, clean, and comfortable. Parking on street but next to hotel.
The young woman receptionist was very helpful and friendly. (Don't expect great comprehension of English anywhere in Monção that I encountered. Fortunately I am reasonably conversant in Portuguese and people were kind.)
Lovely room with beautiful large, ornate windows and a balcony overlooking the square. We were given a really sweet little welcome bag on arrival containing the most delicious homemade cookies! The owner went out of her way to make our stay excellent. Its algo perfectly located right in the centre of historic Monção. We would definitely stay there again. 😊
the hotel is in a converted mansion right on the edge of the old town and has parking. the common spaces and there are several are interestingly decorated. the staff has limited to no English (Monaco is not a tourist town) but you can get by. the restaurant has good food and service if you don’t feel like going out.all in all a good choice for Monaco
The breakfast was fantastic. The Solar is beautiful, in the middle of a truly beautiful working vineyard. The staff were very welcoming and accommodating. They anticipated our needs in thoughtful ways. They gave us a delightful tour of the winery when we asked. It was a convenient base for us to visit Moncao, Valenca and Tui.
Location was excellent. Breakfast was good with an AMAZING assortment of fabulous cakes and pastries . Fresh fruit, yogurt, cheeses, ham, salami...no complaints. My only complain was the ancient hair dryer in the room that took almost an hour to dry my long hair. But, I would certainly recommend this hotel.

Charming guesthouse in an excellent location on a square close to the scenic boardwalk along the Minho River (Passadiços da Fortaleza de Monção) and steps away from the Alvarinho wine museum. Lovely views from my room. Cafes nearby.
All the staff were wonderfully accommodating, not because they had to be, but due to their gracious and kind characters. We stayed 5 nights, extending from a planned 3, because the hotel and Moncao were so charming.
we liked the environment of the winery - especially sampling the wine! the breakfast was good and delicious. we will certainly return to this very welcoming hotel.
