Solar Egas Moniz is deserving of a 5 star rating. We shall return someday. ##### Jennifer Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zandra, New York, NY 22 Jun 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Unforgettable Solar Egas Moniz I traveled to Portugal in May, and I had a wonderful stay in Penafiel, at Solar Egas Moniz. The owner and staff were extraordinarily welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The hotel is a charming manor house with a beautiful stained glass window and offers a quiet and peaceful local experience. The hotel is located 1 km from the Cete train station, and approx. thirty minutes by car to Porto. I stayed in a bright and comfortable room in the main house. It contained a nice, firm bed, exposed brick wall, cable/satellite TV and free Wifi, and a beautiful view. There is a library, wine room with snacks, and a cute wood burning stove in the house. Breakfast and dinner were served in a delightful dining room; the food was really delicious and the service excellent. The surrounding property includes a garden, outdoor swimming pool, and a children's playground. It was quite lovely. The owner and her employees provided exceptional guest service, anticipating and full-filling all of my wishes and needs. They were so attentive and considerate. Everything possible was done to make my visit perfect. I can't recommend Solar Egas Moniz more highly! Thank you Iva and Joana for a delightful and memorable experience! Tips: If you need to do laundry (and who doesn't when traveling with a suitcase full of dirty clothes), there is an extremely good laundress in Penafiel. There is a really nice taxi driver that services the hotel (Fernando) There is a new, good, casual restaurant in Penafiel. ##### Zandra Stayed 4 nights in May 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Solverde Spa & Wellness Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Hotel-Solverde-Spa-Wellness-Center.h1188272.Hotel-Information) > > [Axis Vermar Conference & Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Povoa-De-Varzim-Hotels-Axis-Vermar-Conference-Beach-Hotel.h525195.Hotel-Information) > > [VillageHotels Hotels in Milton Keynes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Milton-Keynes-Hotels-Village-Hotels.0-0-d8370--bVillageHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Holiday Inn Express Stockport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stockport-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Stockport.h16216764.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Eyemouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Eyemouth-Hotels.s50-0-d6084561.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Chancery Lane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chancery-Lane-Hotels.0-l553248623142883474-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [York Street Studios](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liverpool-Hotels-York-Street-Studios.h39144469.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Parking in London City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-City-Centre-London-Hotels-Hotel-With-Parking.0-n6195474-0-thotelwithparking.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Buxton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Buxton-Hotels.d4592.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Wynnstay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Machynlleth-Hotels-Wynnstay-Hotel.h17745718.Hotel-Information) > > [St. Mellion Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Saltash-Hotels-St-Mellion-Estate.h2836321.Hotel-Information) > > [Winery Hotels in Crete](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Crete-Winery-Hotels.0-0-d180100-tWineryHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Moon Palace Cancun - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cancun-Hotels-Moon-Palace-Cancun-All-Inclusive.h428588.Hotel-Information) > > [Monverde - Wine Experience Hotel by Unlock Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amarante-Hotels-Monverde-Wine-Experience-Hotel-Member-Of-Unlock-Hotels.h11530830.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cliff Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Great-Yarmouth-Hotels-The-Cliff-Hotel.h20810.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Geysir](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blaskogabyggd-Hotels-Hotel-Geysir.h35127378.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Entertainment in Cumbria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Cumbria-Hotel-With-Entertainment.0-0-d6046194-thotelwithentertainment.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Danubius Hotel Astoria City Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Budapest-Hotels-Danubius-Hotel-Astoria-City-Center.h6139.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Mary](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vico-Equense-Hotels-Hotel-Mary.h4947835.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Nottingham by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nottingham-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Nottingham.h14586.Hotel-Information) > > [Lonicera Premium](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Antalya-Hotels-LONICERA-PREMIUM.h40915426.Hotel-Information) > > [New Westcliff Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bournemouth-Hotels-New-Westcliff-Hotel.h7946676.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Memphis (MEM) to Las Vegas (LAS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/mem/las/memphis-to-las-vegas) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Coimbra (CBP)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/cbp/london-to-coimbra) > > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Geneva (GVA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/gva/glasgow-to-geneva) ### Cars > [Car hire in Fort Lauderdale](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Fort-Lauderdale.d601750.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Fjord Norway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Fjord-Norway.d6056648.Travel-Guide-Activities)
