Nice hotel near city center and shopping
Hotel is one of the newer ones in the area. First time in any hotel that we had to use room key to keep air and lights on. We stayed one night and it seemed after awhile the a/c stopped cooling. We are not certain that’s normal. We woke up at 5am to cut thermostat down. The staff is very helpful and all seemed to know English. Room was pretty clean. The only notable dirty area was the floor. That is probably harder to keep clean during a busy season. Only noticed floor due to a towel being dropped on it... Overall pleased with our stay at this hotel.

True to its name, they have carried the Chocolate theme throughout, in surprising ways, including toiletries! And you get free entry to the Chocolate museum in the basement of the original factory.

Decent Hotel.....but
I really liked the hotel, area & cute rooms even though the bathroom fan & ceiling in our first room had issues. I had a do not disturb sign on my door as I was only at the hotel for 1.5 nights and did not feel the need for intrusions or cleaning as I prefer to save resources and peoples time. I returned to find staff in my room who acknowledged the presence of a do not disturb sign on my door but they walked in anyway. The manager tried to tell me this was normal "in Portugal and this hotel". I had just stayed 2 other nights in Portugal. Do not disturb signs have been universally respected in every other country & hotel I have been in but this one. The manager was quite rude to me about it. The female receptionist who was working at the time laughed in our faces. It left extremely sour notes on an otherwise nice hotel & experience. The gentlemen who worked nights & helped with our late check in / early check out was incredibly kind & professional.

Lovely hotel with friendly helpful staff
Great hotel in a town well worth visiting. The hotel is fairly new and the rooms are fitted to a high standard. Breakfast is excellent and the restaurant is also good for lunch and dinner. The staff were really helpful and always very friendly. Although there is no parking at the hotel there is an underground car park a hundred meters away

It is a very funky hotel - love the themed rooms. The cleaning staff allowed my kids and I to see the rooms they were setting up. Very cool. The museum in the basement is a great use of space and the breakfast was one of the best on our trip.
