Thomar Story - Guest House

Easily the best hotel I’ve stayed in Portugal. Super central in the historic center, the main street is just a few meters away. The hotel itself is so amazing! Very clean, super fast wifi, great rain shower with very good pressure, spacious toilet & shower area, comfortable beds. All incredibly good amenities. My visit to my most favorite small town in Portugal was complemented with my stay in my most favorite hotel in Portugal. Wish I had stayed longer!

Great place, would highly recommend

Overall the stay here was excellent. Just a couple of things travelers should know If you're staying on the top floor it can be a long way up, good cardio, as there is no lift. Also the blurb says that parking is available, its not. The hotel is extremely clean, bed changed daily etc

Love love loved this property. Perfectly outfitted , not too small. Really really clean. Great location! Staff are wonderful and breakfast perfect! Lots of coffee.

I had a lovely six- night stay at the Thomar Story - absolutely no complaints whatsoever. After 10 days driving solo from the UK across France and Spain, the hotel was a perfect oasis of peace and quiet. A lovely, well-appointed, clean room with masses of hot water and the staff are all friendly and helpful. From the hotel, it's an easy two-minute walk into the historic centre of Tomar with its many cafes, bars and restaurants. Thomar Story will certainly be my first choice hotel next time I am in the area.

I love staying here. It was close to many places i wanted to explore. The staff was very friendlu.

On the positives. The staff was so welcoming and friendly! It was a pleasure. The location is great, very close to the old town and several restaurants. The B&B had been renovated and was very clean. Breakfast was decent, not great, but convenient "in-house". Also parking is free, but in various parking lots a bit away from the hotel, so be ready to drag your luggage to the hotel as there is no way to park even shortly by the hotel (busy street). On the not-so-positives. The AC was a nightmare: it came on "softly", but quickly turned into a "diesel tractor", noisy and vibrating like mad, then soft again - and repeat. No way to sleep with this very loud AC. So, no AC, we both were completely drenched through the night from the heat and the humidity - did not sleep much. We reported the problem - first were told that "we are waiting for the technician", second that "oh, so loud!? We really need to call the technician..." So probably a known problem, yet not addressed. Disappointing and frustrating in light of the heat wave. Nicely they comped us for the breakfast, but that does not address an almost sleepless night.

Plusses: Big and clean room with a tiny kitchenette Cheap price although breakfast cost extra Easy to reach from train station Minuses Lift was missing and the staircase was narrow
