4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

The old part of the hotel is amazingly beautiful and very well restored. But the furniture, the tables in the cloister, the billiard table and the big TV screen in the common room are terrible and cheap and more so the sad couches and armchairs scattered around the hotel. The annex is a terrible box of concrete, which totally lacks... More

We stayed here the second time in two years. We received a room which was ok, but not as great as the last time in the newer and upper class wing. Anyway, the gardens have developed, andmthingsnvery pretty now. Aside the historical setting and the great rustic location the property is still in good shape. However the room we had... More

This small hotel is a beautifully restored monastery that was unoccupied for 200 yrs.but the restoration was so well done that you'd think it was newly built. The rooms are quite spacious and well appointed and the staff is friendly and responsive to requests. The dining room is very picturesque and the food delicious, but the breakfast buffet is adequate... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in late April, we found the hotel fantastic & the staff extremely helpful. Outdoor pool wasn't open given the time of year but the indoor pool is (just) long enough for lap swimming. Contrary to other review we've read the hotel was really easy to find - follow signs for Espinheiro. I'd say its... More

We took our family to the hotel and had a wonderful stay. The pool and spa area is very nice and very well equipped with a sauna and hot tub. The grounds are amazing (though the hotel is situated in a slightly remote area a few miles from the historic center of Evora). Be sure to take a tour of... More

The experience started well our car was whisked away and luggage taken up by an extremely helpful bell boy whilst we were greeted with a local liqueur as we signed in and then taken to our room by a receptionist. We were happy with the location of the hotel, it’s historic setting and all the facilities which included indoor/outdoor pool... More

Amazing hotel with an absolutely amazing restaurant (and expensive but do go try it at least once!!) that also serves the breakfast that is just "eat and cry for more"! The staff are really kind and ready to help you out with anything. The rooms are perfectly clean. Both pools (indoor and outdoor) are superb. The bar could stay open... More

It is true as many other reviews say that this hotel is unique, because it´s a place where luxury features blends with the old ones of the convent. And that´s the beauty of it. Equally interesting are of course the surroundings of this hotel - a truly bucolic landscape of Alentejo. Neverending green pastures with olive trees, cows and sheeps.... More

What makes this hotel so wonderful is its very unique setting. Many elements of the old convent remain including an amazing chapel, the cavernous public rooms and the wine cellar which is now the dining room. Starwood has done a fabulous job mixing the old and new. Rooms are modern and very comfortable. The service is excellent and breakfast was... More
