This was our second stay, this time with friends. It is a comfortable, well established hotel in an older but renovated building in a very convenient location for wandering around historic Evora. It is is a pedestrianized little street (but beware the odd vehicle!) and has 5 parking spaces nearby next to the cathedral (Se’) and for which a small... More

Riviera is very well located downtown Evora, between the Sé Cathedral and the Giraldo Plaza. It's an old building, nicely renovated and transformed into an hotel. We use it often in our terracottajourneys bike tours. The service is good and I recommended to all my friends.

Hotel has good staff that made us feel welcome. Situated in the old town on a quiet pedestrian street. We had difficulty locating Hotel as GPS takes you in via a number of closed (at the moment) streets which are now only for pedestrian. We worked it out. The Hotel has five marked parking spots quite close to the Hotel... More

We arrived at this hotel during low season, without a reservation. They welcomed us in and showed us to a room right away. It is a good, clean hotel, with a decent included breakfast and free wifi.

Very good place, excellent location, nice staff (all the hotel employees I have met have been extremely kind). Wi-fi connection works pretty well. Rooms are very charming. Breakfast is also good, but biscuits are really excellent. I have noticed only one (minor) problem: if you need an hair dryer, you need to ask the receptionnist. Highly recommended.

.This is a well run hotel situated on a quiet street in the heart of a medieval town. It is good value for money and the staff are helpful and welcoming. If you are driving, reserve one of the five hotel parking spaces. Parking otherwise is difficult. The one criticism I would make is the noise from feral drinkers who... More

Residencial Riviera is a very smart choice for your stay in Evora, a beautiful university town with lots of nightly action. The rooms at Riviera were nice, the bathroom clean, the breakfast tasty, and the location excellent. The service and reception was perhaps not as warm as I was accustomed to in Portugal, but overall we were satisfied.

Residencial Riviera is a nice place to stay in Evora. The location is excellent, just in the heart of the town. There are some reserved parking places 200m up the hill. The hotel is clean, though not modern. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious. Breakfast is good. Overall, just what you need with no specific highs or lows. If we... More

We had taken the bus to Evora and the local public transportation dropped us 50 metres from the front door of the hotel. The rooms were tasteful and very comfortable; we especially enjoyed the beautiful sitting room on our floor. We walked easily to all major attractions in Evora, which is a charming small city.

Historic hotel in the centre of historic Evora with 100 metre walk to Giraldo's Square with its outdoor restaurants, tourist office and shops. Hotel has character, particularly the unusual ceilings and spacious rooms. Be sure to request a quiet room as the quiet day time streets turn into loud party streets at night right through until 4.00 am in the... More
