Hotel dos Templarios, Tomar

Advantages: Great location, great breakfast
Disadvantages: Needs a refurb in bedroom areas - urgently!

...— This is a Hotel that can cater for the coach party, or hen/stag party. In fact any generously sized party can be booked for. When I stayed there it was the weekend before Whitsun Bank Holiday so there were plenty of hen parties and stag do’s. In fact the Stag Do just turned up for Breakfast from a night of clubbing, then went back to the rooms to sleep! The floor we were staying on was not at all rowdy and was quiet, in the morning we discovered that we had a hen party of 25 in the rooms next to us, so from that you can say that they were well behaved as I didn’t hear a thing outside the room. ---Overall--- I will be honest, as the Hotel needs a general overhaul at the very least. It has a total of 140 rooms and conferencing rooms and facilities available for hire. The décor runs out when the staircase stops on the conferencing floors... Read review

Advantages: Location, price!
Disadvantages: Can get very crowded

...in this establishment has to be mentioned as it get top marks for both quality and quantity. You won't be disappointed. A good range is available on the menu, it is well presented and is reasonably priced. It is especially popular for Sunday lunches, so you have been warned, get there early! Within the bar there seems to almost be a small army of staff who are competent and friendly to both regulars and visitors alike. I cannot comment too much on the hotel rooms myself as I have not stayed there but there are 12 ensuite rooms available, which I am reliably informed are decorated to a high standard, in keeping with the rest of the building. My only concern for residents would be noise. There is a function room that can cater for up to 300 people for wedding parties, Christmas work dos etc. This is used on a Saturday night as a nightcub where I believe... Read review

Advantages: Attentive service
Disadvantages: None that I could name

...I was away on business to Perth in Scotland yet again so I decided to visit my favorite restaurant in the town Dos Amigos, this is as the name suggests a Mexican restaurant. --------------The Setting-------------- Dos Amigos is located on George Street , which is near the River Tay and the Royal George hotel which I have also reviewed. Also in the area is Perth's art gallery and just nearing completion, due to open in September 2005, is the new Perth Concert hall, so I would imagine you can expect the restaurant to be very busy on the weekends. I have never booked as I have always been eating there on a week night and so the restaurant is not that busy if you wish to make sure you have a table for the fine food then the number you need to call is 01738-444660. There is no bar in the main restaurant area... Read review
