Liked: Staff & service
Very interesting place. We spent one morning just going around the building and reading about its history. The problem here is the expectations they create. This is not a luxury hotel with haute cuisine. It's a simple accommodation in a historic building, and if they had set my expectations accordingly I would probably leave a better review. It's worth visiting, the staff is nice and we enjoyed our time. Just don't expect a luxurious experience with exceptional food, because that's not what you'll get. Our bathroom had a leak, the shower head was tilted in a strange way, and there was a pistaccio shell on the floor of our suite's living room from the day we arrived until we left, despite daily cleaning.

Maria was lovely and very informative during check in. The area is beautiful and interesting. Truly a new experience for us staying in a former convent. Not something we can do at home.

The overall experience at the Hotel Convento de São Paulo was good but we were really disappointed and almost ready to cancel our entire stay from the first room they gave us. We booked the Suite, Annex Building (Fonte (outside the Main Building)) and what we got was nothing like the vaulted ceiling room we chose when booking. The room 314 we got should be condemned for having a serious mold problem and was extremely uncomfortable to breath in regardless of trying to air the space out with the windows open. The sheets literally felt damp to the touch as if they either hadn't been dried properly or the dampness of the space was affecting them. The bed was not the double/queen bed shown in the pictures either. We were shocked that this was what we were paying $150 usd a night for in the off season. If we hadn't gotten there so last the first night from our long drive to the hotel we would've gone to the front desk right away and had the room either changed to our great inconvenience after un-packing. The next morning we brought this to the attention to the staff member at the front desk who then switched us to the correct room that we booked and from there on out we were extremely happy. The claim made by staff is that there are many rooms (11 different options). There is only 1-2 pictures of the rooms yet nearly 100 of the property grounds... Very misleading and should be improved. Again, we were happy with our correct room but what a hassle it was at the start.

Estadia tranquila

A estadia foi boa ,os funcionários são muito atenciosos e educados, o restaurante é agradável , comida boa entretanto achamos muito caro para o que foi servido O quarto e wc são simples , poderia ter um frigobar. Os espaços do hotel são interessantes por se tratar de uma construção do século XI , a piscina tem uma localização muito boa e aconchegante com árvores ao redor .O café da manhã na varanda é muito agradável .

Local espetacular

Tanto o edificio como o enquadramento natural e as vistas são absolutamente fantásticos. A não perder explorar todos os azulejos do edificio e as histórias biblicas neles contadas. O preço é excessivo para a qualidade dos quartos, em especial nesta altura do ano em que estava quase vazio. Nos quartos é inexplicável n ter fichas para carregar os telefones junto à cama. Bom pequeno almoço. O jantar foi muito bom mas o risoto é muito mal servido, com muito pouca quantidade.

Estadia fantástica, pena ter sido só uma noite. A sensação de dormir num convento centenário e maravilhosa. Tenho de referir o atendimento da Sra da recepção, Marília, que era de uma simpatia extrema 😊. E a envolvente da serra D’ossa muito bonita. A voltar.

Séjour idyllique.

Séjour parfait, l’hotel, ancien couvent, est situé au pied de la serra do Ossa. On surplombe la plaine. Magnifiques azuléjos dans toutes les coursives et salles intérieures. Excellents repas, très bons vins issus de vignerons voisins. Petits déjeunés, bien. L’endroit est très calme et reposant. Mérité un entretien plus approfondi !

I was reminded that my quarters is not in the main building. Even though it wasn't in the main building, it should have been clean. The curtain over the bathroom window was see through and I hung the hand towels over it. The foot rugs by the bed were not clean. The staff equipment door was next to the room and 2:15am I heard loud talking for 10 minutes each of the two nights. The caulking in the bathroom made the place look shoddy and needed to be replaced. I was told that my quarters was not in the main building and I didn't think it met a poor quality room. The breakfast buffet was excellent.
