Top 10 Hotels in Nazaré

The best and most recommended hotels, based on guest reviews, facilities and location.

There was a time when accommodation in Nazaré was mostly limited to rooms in private homes and guesthouses. Women wearing their traditional seven petticoats would wait for tourists by the bus station, holding a sign advertising “Quartos/Chambres/Rooms/Zimmer” for rent. In the internet era, no one arrives in town without booked accommodation, and there is now a wider variety of places to stay, from modern beachfront hotels to bed-and-breakfasts and apartments. Surprisingly (for such a popular destination), however, there are no grand luxury hotels, and most properties are small and fall within the midrange/budget category. If you’re planning to stay in Nazaré, you should book well in advance. These are your best options:

    Hotel Mar Bravo

  • 1. Hotel Mar Bravo
  • The location can’t be beat -- it faces the sea on one side and the town’s main square on the other. It features a contemporary interior, and most of the rooms have balconies, offering wonderful views of Praia da Nazaré.
