I loved the location of this property. Not even 10 minutes from Evora. The grounds were beautiful and the indoor pool with sauna and steam room were a nice retreat after a long day touring. The beds were super comfortable and the rooms were well insulated from noise. The staff was very professional and we enjoyed chatting with the bartender in the lounge area - he had very good restaurant recommendations. My massage at the spa was mediocre at best but I am spoiled with my masseuse in the states! If I ever visit Portugal again I would definitely stay here!

The old convent was lovely. We stayed in the old part of the hotel and it was very comfortable- the bed was huge! All the staff were friendly and we enjoyed a free wine tasting on arrival and a bottle of sparkling wine in our room. The indoor pool was ok, but the steam room and sauna were disappointingly cool. The outdoor pool was great and would be gorgeous in the summer. The hotel was really peaceful and it was easy to get in to Evora for dinner and shopping. Breakfast was excellent!

The breakfast quality was poor and food was cold in the buffet which was supposed to be hot. No hot made to order options. Laundry department tried to overcharge on items sent. Pool is absolutely loaded in chlorine beyond normal levels, the smell penetrates through corridors and is present on the entire building and rooms nearby. Jacuzzi gull of foam and oils from guests, not cleaned sufficiently. A shame as overall it is a nice location and it could really be a 5 stars hotel if it improved the breakfast.

This property is simply stunning. Perfect for a visit to Evora, but frankly a destination on its own. The staff recommended a restaurant in Evora for lunch that was fantastic. The gardens are glorious and we had the chapel to ourselves when we explored, its amazing rivals many we paid to visit. Live music in the cloisters and excellent breakfast all added bonuses! Will tell friends and family they must visit!
