J	Joe Quisgard on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a very nicely preserved/restored historic landmark. There is a lot of information on the palace and castle that can be learned here. It is set up more like a museum so taking good photos can be tough since a lot of area is roped off. It is very easy to get around in. If you want to see the castle as well, make sure you buy a combo ticket since you can't upgrade later.
J	Jade on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutely fantastic, a must-see ! It was a wonderful palace with full of stuff. Once you are here don't miss out any room, so get into every room you see is accessible. You can see the furniture from its time, the paintings on the walls are beautiful, the armory, the dining room , every room was full of history. Imagine the banquets there when that huge room was full of royalty or commanders of the time. It is very impressive. Loved it!
A	Andreano Lanusse on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing castle with so much history and unique stuff. The torture rooms and equipments are very impressive, you can miss that, cost extra but worth every dollar. If you visit Guimaraes Castle, Palace of the Dukes is next to it.

M	Margarida Pimenta on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great place to visit, very well preserved and beautiful. It’s where the dukes used to live and it’s still in such a great state. The most beautiful part is the chapel with outstanding stained glass. The entrance is actually very cheap, especially if you buy a ticket for the palace and for the castle together. The staff is really nice and welcoming.

A	Andrew Long on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Impressive granite Palace which you can buy a combined ticket to also see castle for €6. Rooms are well laid out and overall quality of building maintenance is good. Building has lifts so it's totally disabled friendly. Could do with a tea room.
Y	Yossi Gabay on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A very impressive castle, a variety of views of life in the castle, various objects: swords, pistols and other weapons. Pictures on the walls showing historical events. A very interesting tour. The castle has undergone impressive renovation and restoration.
