This was a unique and beautiful hotel located just out of Évora. It was a peaceful oasis of gardens, spa, outdoor pool and covent interior to explore. The outdoor pool was fabulous for swimming laps. The restaurant was gourmet.

This hotel is the finest we have ever stayed at. The convent facility was historic and beyond description for quiet and relaxation. The spa was clean and full featured. My wife received a facial. Above all the staff was polite and professional. Five star dining and we joined wine tasting as well. Evora is a wonderful place to visit.

The exterior of the property in particular is very tired. The bar is like something from a museum cafe when there is a beautiful room next door that should be used as the bar. The indoor pool was good and the breakfast was good.

Evora- Stay at the Convent

A beautiful old convent where monks once stayed. Everything is beautifully appointed and the breakfast was a beautiful spread. The location is outside city center so call an uber to get around. Evora was a beautiful old city and our hotel balcony was a lovely view.

The common areas of the hotel are stunning! The wait staff in the bar and restaurant were wonderful! They must take comedy lessons and 2 are look alikes for Will Smith and Jack Black . They were so fun and enhanced our incredible dining experience. The bed was so comfortable and the linens were lovely . We had a balcony overlooking the grounds, which I imagine are gorgeous come spring and summer . It’s a quick ride into town, Park at the aqueduct parking lot for free and it’s an easy walk into the historic center . Stay here !!

A beautiful and very historical hotel in the fashion of a Relais et Chateau. A well maintained beautiful convent in the country. An 8 minute drive from the old city centre with lots of history, cobblestone streets and restaurants. Very reasonably priced!!!
