With just 18 guestrooms, the intimate Alegre hotel occupies a mid nineteenth century manor house and is set in extensive gardens on a hill overlooking the village of Luso and the Bussaco Forest, a Portuguese national park. Individually furnished with original antiques, the guestrooms all have come equipped with televisions and telephones and offer views of Luso village, the valley, the hotel gardens and the forest. Guests can lounge by the outdoor pool with a drink from the poolside bar, stroll through the hotel's extensive gardens and relax with a glass of port by the open fire in the evening. Furnished with period antiques, the hotel's restaurant appropriately occupies the building's original dining room where Portuguese specialties are served alongside international dishes accompanied by fine wines and light jazz music.
