Portuguese Hotel Joins Representation Company

The award-winning Vidago Palace Hotel has recently joined the UK-based Mason Rose Collection. In the north of Portugal, approximately one hour away from Porto and 15 minutes from the town of Chaves, the hotel was founded in 1910 during the reign of King Carlos I and the iconic Belle Époque era. 

In 2010 the hotel was completely redesigned and re-opened, and boasts 70 individually designed rooms and suites, as well as 6 acclaimed restaurants. The hotel offers meeting space in its Conference Centre, this historic building offers 7 meeting rooms, one multi-purpose room, one reception room, one bar lounge and an auditorium in an amphi-theatre, which can seat up to 264 people.

Superlative catering is a key focus of the hotel; the hotel’s multi award-winning consultant chef Rui Paula is recognised for his participation in Masterchef Portugal since 2014, his four outstanding restaurants in Portugal and two books compiling the best of his eye-catching recipes using tasty and fresh ingredients. In 2015 he won the ‘Best Portuguese Cookbook’ award from the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards and this year he was honoured by the Portuguese Gastronomy Academy as the ‘Best in the Art of Cooking’.
