Completely unique and outstanding.

Completely unique and eclectic! Room was superb and extremely comfortable. Every little detail was well thought out. Staff and food were first class. Would love to come back for another stay. Worth going out of your way for.

Nothing at all. The place is wonderful.

The building and garden are OK, Evening catering was a disaster for us. A big disappointment.

The room was very clean, well equipped, nicely furnished and comfortable. The pool area was a nice place to sit an relax in the late summer sunshine. Lots of chairs, loungers and shaded areas too. Pool and gardens were well maintained. The modern rather brutalist-style building is architecturally interesting and the decor eclectic (but is now looking tired in places). Some people will like it, others not. Plenty of free parking is available.

The experience overall was not good enough to be listed in the Small Luxury Hotels directory. Others SLH's we have used have been exceptional. The major problem. The evening catering was very poor, and most certainly did not meet expectations, and blighted our stay. We wonder if Carmo's has a major kitchen/staffing problem, post-pandemic? The food is expensive, had to be chosen by 18.00 each day, and there is no atmosphere in the dining room. On day 1, Thursday, we were contacted to be told the "for logistical reasons" only sandwiches were available in the evening. There was a choice of about 5-6 and when served the quality was very poor (we told staff at time). On evening 2 (Friday) the "logistical problems" continued , with a limited menu of dishes offered. We chose from the light meals menu and had a very expensive, but nice, small dish. On evening 3 (Saturday), unsurprisingly, we ate out. As the hotel, and others, say the decor is eclectic, which is fun. However, some now looks old and shabby. It needs a refresh. As others have said, the hotel is next to a moderately busy country road. The front terrace can be noisy, but elsewhere is OK, but do not expect rural peace. No noise issue in our room (4).

Nice but overprized hotel in a beautiful albeit somewhat noisy location and in need of some upgrades

The location of the hotel and the view of the tent rooms was very nice. The room itself was comfortable and the spa treatments that we had booked were good. We only could enjoy a dinner on the first night since the cook was sick the second night, but it was good. Nothing spectacular but a solid meal, in particular considering the very reasonable price ( Euro 39/pp). The ladies that are helping at the restaurant are very nice and efficient and make a real effort to make you feel at home. This in stark contrast to the lady at the reception the day we arrived....

The lady at the reception put us off. She welcomed us in a very robotic and business-like manner without any warmth. Also, the tour around was brief and quick, ending with the usual "if you have any questions, please let us know " It almost felt if it was an honour to be allowed to stay at this small luxury hotel...! The hotel is located next to a relatively busy road and the noise of the cars is constantly present at the background, at the terrace of the room and on the terrace of the restaurant. Overall, the place begins to look rather stuffy and dusty, and some parts are in need of maintenance. If you pay Euro 400 /night you expect and should get more.

Lovely hotel in a lovely area.

This hotel is great. The decor is quirky and fun. The rooms are gorgeous and the meals are excellent. Service is exemplary.

Two minor criticisms. The surface on the entrance ramp (from the car park) is ripped in places. This creates an unfavourable first impression. Also, the garden and grounds could be better maintained in places.

Unpleasant experience in a wannabe hotel

The only good thing in the stay was the breakfast quality and the person that served breakfast in 3 of the 4 mornings.

Everything else was bad. When I have the time to do it, I shall write a complete report and send it to several entities, but here I shall mention only the items which were well below the standard of a 5 star hotel with the SLH seal of approval: phone answering, parking, reception staffing and schedule, quality of room and its maintenance, inexperienced person serving dinner, etc. And, most of all, a manager who is not ready to accept criticism. Indeed, that is the main problem of the hotel: management.
