Hotel Forte de São Francisco
Chaves
$$$ (50 to 100 euros)
Built in the beginning of the XVI century, this convent was later converted into a fort for the military defence of the town. The fort was extensively and carefully renovated for over ten years after being left without any use for a long period, and it has been converted into a delightful hotel offering comfort and luxury in superb surroundings.
