Our stay was pleasant. our room was clean and comfortable. Breakfasts were excellent as was the one group dinner we had. We enjoyed relaxing in the courtyard after a hard day of biking. The staff was friendly and helpful. It's hard to beat a medieval castle. More

This old castle has been converted into a very pleasant hotel. Rooms are spacious, although furnishings are a bit basic. Breakfast was good. More

We stayed at the Pousada de Castelo de Alvito for one night on our way through the region. The Pousada is located very nicely in the middle of this small village.

Quiet, clean, comfortable, with all the amenities we needed. We did stay (one night) in a superior room, which was huge! Nice view of the... More

Upon leaving the highway, one travelled deep into the alentejo plains and countryside. There were more horses, sheep, cows and goats than people. We were waved and pointed toward ALvito by a group of elderly gents in their... More

This Pousada is a small Castle with beautifull gardens with beautiful peacoks. The rooms was large and very clean. At the reception desk a nice and polite lady welcame and drive us to the room. The service and the food at the Restaurant was very good. Sure we will be back. More

The Pousada is a fantastic 15th century castle. After check-in we were shown to our room which was rustically furnished & very comfortable with a... More
