Nice place, it’s huge with lots of common areas. Great staff; let me move rooms as mine was interior and too hot. Easy parking and walking to everything.

Whenever we needed new towels, the housekeeping staff would drop everything to accommodate us immediately. They would even shorten their lunch hour to meet our needs. The housekeeping employees work hard, they provide high quality care and services, they are dedicated to their job, and they go above and beyond 100 percent. Thank you to Dalila, Monica, Teresa, and Vera for their professionalism, warm greetings and big smiles everyday.

They did not provide us with the VIP treatment (welcome drinks) promised in my Hotels.com reservation. 3 euros for a beer at the hotel bar is crazy expensive for a small Portuguese town. On top of that, the two waiters were serving cocktails to themselves and drinking them in front of us. Surreal, I have never seen such thing in my life. I have been visiting hotels at least twice a month for business in more than 50 countries Hot water was not available in my room. Dinner was good at a decent price. The building is beautiful but should be taken care of better. Breakfast buffet is not a 4 star one. Far from it.

The rooms were very basic not a bit like the one on the website. No bedside tables and nowhere to put things down as there was only one small table. There was only luke warm water to the sink and bath. When we arrived at reception we asked if the restaurant was open that evening and was told that it would be at 7.30pm. We arrived just after 8pm but there were no staff and we were told the bartender would be back in five minutes. 10 minutes later we found him but he said that there were no hot meals that evening and the restaurant was closed but he could make us a sandwich. Definitely Not 4 star.

We really enjoyed our stay.The staff were kind and attentive. The room was comfortable and spacious. The breakfast had a good choice that suited us well seeing that my wife is vegan they provided a plant based milk, fresh fruit and fresh fruit juices. We will return.

The hotel was overall nice, althought we felt that it shouldn`t be considered a 4 star hotel (more like a 3).

Wonderful place - was an old convent then a military hospital. The building was constructed in the 1600's so it just radiates with character. We loved the worn marble stairs and the winding passage ways. It also has sitting areas throughout the hotel where you can sit and read or gather to talk or check emails. The staff is also extremely friendly and helpful. We highly recommend this place.

We enjoyed our stay a lot, had a great veiw and spacious room. Staff let us check in early and helped book a taxi into Spain. The breakfast was amazing. We were given 2 single beds instead of the requested double, and we unfortunately had very noisy guests opposite that kept us up late.

Amazing property, fantastic service, brilliant room. We had a room with a terrace in the second floor which was magical. Views of the fort from the balcony. Bed was super comfortable. Breakfast was top notch (except for the coffee machine although they made up for it with coffees delivered to the table) Hotel had secure parking behind a barrier. Can’t go wrong with a stay here.

We loved our stay at this hotel. We had a really nice room overlooking the pool, a comfortable bed and a terrace where we sat with a bottle of wine in the evening. We enjoyed sitting and reading by the pool in the afternoon and breakfast the next morning was delicious. We had the option of sitting in their beautiful courtyard with lime trees or inside in the dining area. The hotel was very atmospheric having been a convent, we could feel the history as we wandered around the corridors! The staff were very friendly and helpful, and it was useful being able to park our car in their spacious carpark. A happy stay for us!

What a gorgeous hotel!!! It is in a several hundred years old monastery and there are signs of old wood and marble from the days of old. Each room held a monk and the ceilings are vaulted and wooden. So beautiful. Request room 301, open the windows and look straight down for a nice surprise!!!! This property was a five minute walk from all kinds of restaurants and shopping. Eat at Restaurante Luís Cobra one block away. You wont regret it!!

We were updated to a superior room with balcony - view of garden, country and town. Also received a voucher for a free drink. Elvas is a very historic town inside a fortress. The hotel is very nice and has a garden area with a swimming pool. As it was very hot it was a delight to use. Air conditioning,WiFi and bathroom with bath were all fine. A nice bar and courtyard area. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast outside in the courtyard. Altogether a pleasant stay.

Property is old but well maintained. Room was large (historic) and open to street with nice view of city. Only complaint was that the air conditioning didn't work well and it was a humid day. Keeping the window open would have helped, but noise (not too loud) would allow. However, the hotel was in a great location which made walking the core of the city easy. The courtyard is nice. We were able to have breakfast outside. Overall a good choice.
