Staff were great, building was unique!! Beds were comfortable.Breakfast was great. We were never able to get hot water. The exterior needs a good painting and the water fountains definitely need cleaning. But I would stay there again.

Lovely old charm

The hotel is lovely but could do with an update. Bathroom is very old and the beds are a bit lumpy. The food in the restaurant could be better than frozen veggies. With a bit of work it could be a fabulous hotel.

Local muito bonito, mas mal mantido. Barato!

O Hotel precisa ser melhor cuidado. O local é muito bonito, mas as instalações precisam de reforma. Não demos sorte, talvez. Quando chegamos não havia água quente. Por outro lado, é muito barato. Está um pouco distante de Elvas, mas preferimos assim.

Bien, pero necesita de reformas

Es un alojamiento muy tranquilo pero que necesita de reformas. Éramos una pareja y nos dieron una habitación familiar de 4 camas con colchones algo incómodos. Las estancias comunes están muy bien y el servicio es bueno. El comedor está un poco caduco y en general necesita una reforma. Los jardines muy bonitos pero algo descuidados. Sin embargo el desayuno es excelente.

Heerlijk gelegen hotel, met een mooie tuin, zwembad en andere faciliteiten. Het ligt op 10 minuten rijden van het centrum van Elvas. Je komt hier voor de rust. Als de ezel je niet wakker roept, dan toch wel de vogels in de omgeving.

Incredible! Without a doubt this hotel was the most amazing place we stayed during our two months in Portugal and Spain. It is located 10-12 minutes from downtown Elvas and is located all alone out in the countryside. Very quiet if you don’t mind chickens, donkeys and sheep but absolutely zero city noise. Our price was one half to one third what we would have paid to stay in Elvas (€49/ night for two nights in the middle of the week including breakfast) and the room was quite large. It’s fun to wander through the grounds outside into the lemon grove, the orange trees, and multiple walkways. Hardly anyone else was here during our stay and the staff was quite helpful. The entire facility is quite large with a covered wedding area, swimming pool, tennis court, and multiple marble statues but much of this was not being used during our stay most likely because it was too early in the season. If you are going to be in the Elvas area and don’t need to stay right in the city, I would strongly recommend that you stay here. You won’t be disappointed and will be pleasantly surprised.
