Convento dos Capuchos, New ARTEH Hotel in Portugal
JUNE 9, 2009 - The boutique hotel Convento dos Capuchos, located in Monc~ao, Portugal, is now an ARTEH(R) Hotel
Overlooking the Minho River, in Monc~ao, the secular Convento dos Capuchos brings history back to the present and now opens its doors as a charming hotel after profound refurbishing and revalorization works.
Throughout its history it has had various uses and owners, undergone various adaptations and reconstructions that explain its peculiar architectural aspects and unusual paintings and inscriptions. In its interior we find typical convent spaces such as the chapter house, the chapel, the cellar, the magnificent cloister or the tower room.
The cells, an apt name for the rooms, are distributed amongst several wings and present an original and differentiated decoration. They are spacious and equipped at the level of the current demands of comfort.
Surrounding the cloister is the restaurant of regional and author cuisine, as well as the welcoming bar, with rest and game areas which are ideal for socializing. In the crypt area we find the event room prepared for conferences, exhibitions or banquets, as well as the gymnasium and Spa conceived with the guests' wellbeing in mind.
In the hotel's gardens, and in order to enjoy nature, you may play a game of tennis, try out the mini-golf, swim in the pool or simply walk in the panoramic esplanade or relax in the terrace.
