Discover the Vidago Palace Hotel – a hidden palace in the woods!
The Vidago Palace Hotel reopened in 2010 following major refurbishment work. The splendour and sophistication of the past have been preserved intact, along with bygone standards of service and hospitality. Deeply rooted in the collective memory of several generations, the hotel harks back to the way life was lived in the great aristocratic households of the Belle Époque. The best craftsmen in each speciality were taken on to restore to the hotel to the brilliance and aura it possessed from old times. A duo of Portuguese architects - José Pedro Lopes Vieira and Diogo Rosa Lã – masterminded decoration of the interior spaces, while the Thermal SPA and the Club House are the work of the highly regarded architect Álvaro Siza Vieira.

What do spas have
The spa was the favorite of the Portuguese court, so it is still considered the spa queen. Monarchies aside, the waters of Vidago, cold and gaseous, come from four springs of mineral waters. Within the thermal area, they are present in the immersion baths, whirlpools with jet, refreshing showers and even sources of ice. All this in a luxurious environment, worthy of royalty.
Therapeutic indications
Diseases of the nervous system and skin and problems in the digestive and respiratory systems.
