I have stayed at many hotels in Europe, but this place is more than a hotel, it is an experience. The hotel is more like staying in a casa by the ocean, where you are treated like family from morning till night. The staff are very caring to your every needs from shopping, to dining reservations. The rooms are exteremly... More

We revelled in this oasis for 3 days but could have stayed much longer. A year since our stay has not diminished the special memories which our holiday at Albergaria do Calvario evokes. Ambience, accommodation, food services, travel assistance and location were outstanding. It is a perfect base from which to explore Evora and the surrounding countryside. A custom made... More

Stayed here in April on a cold windy day. On arrival we were greeted by Hugo.  As we checked in we were served perfectly made espresso right there in the reception. Every staff member who passed us at that point greeted us friendly and politely. The hotel has a cozy bar area where you sit in deep sofas and you... More

My review may echo the ones posted by others here, but this is really a special place. My husband and I arrived in the afternoon after flying into the Madrid airport and driving straight to Evora. Exhausted, we were warmly greeted, offered cool drinks, checked in quickly, more cool drinks brought to our room, and reservations were made for dinner... More

The Albergaria do Calvario is a really lovely hotel which is nicely situated in the beautiful, historic city of Evora. It has comfortable rooms, wonderful breakfasts and cosy lounges with books and boardgames. The staff are all friendly and helpful without being intrusive - the excellent customer service is what makes this hotel really exceptional. Little touches like a welcome... More

We would highly recommend this hotel to everyone. From the moment you arrive to the moment you leave you will receive excellent service. On arrival we received a welcome drink and friendly faces which was lovely after a long drive. We were then given a map, some advice on sights to see and some excellent restaurant recommendations. We took Michelle... More

The Albergaria do Calvario is one of the best hotels I have stayed in. Its location just inside the medieval walls of Evora make it at once atmospheric and easy to find. The staff were very helpful and attentive but not obtrusive, and they conveyed a feeling of intense pride in their building and a commitment to the needs of... More

This was the best hotel we stayed at during our recent two week trip to Europe. If you plan to visit Evora, which is lovely, stay here. The owners and staff make it a memorable experience and are extremely knowledgeable about the area and are willing to help with anything the guests need. The guest rooms are spacious and modern...

THE KINDNESS AND LEVEL OF SERVICE shown to my husband and me during our 2 nights at Albergaria is difficult to articulate adequately. We will never forget any of the staff or this lovely hotel. From the moment we arrived, we were humbled by the warmth and assistance extended to us by the staff and owners, Peter and Nina. Ice... More

This is a lovely hotel, and although Evora has a lot of narrow one-way streets, this is easy to find. On arrival, we were welcomed warmly and given lots of advice about local sights and eating places. The breakfasts are very good, indeed. The only negative is that the lighting is very low key, and it is not comfortable to... More
