The staff is very friendly and the space is very clean. The breakfast is awesome. There were not many people, so we got to chill a bit in the pool. Is also very central, so you can go anywhere walking

The grounds are beautiful. We had a lovely walk in the morning among flowers, fruit trees, and vegetable gardens. It's absolutely lovely and quiet and relaxing. The pool is also beautiful and a welcome relief after a hot day.

Off the beaten path, on the far East side of Portugal (nearly on the Spanish border). Friendly and interesting people, and interesting history to explore through castles, forts and a marvelous aqueduct.

Lots to see, so make sure you have comfortable clothing and shoes.
Like most Portugeus towns, it is very hilly with narrow streets and lots of steps.
Architecture is stunning and historic with plenty of stories of old.
More vegetarian/vegan restaurants would be a bonus.
The whole Alentejo region is a must-see when visiting this beautiful country.

Elvas is an historic old city with an amazing Roman aqueduct. The local restaurants were not catering for tourists and hardly anyone spoke English. We ate in the hotel which was good value in a lovely setting. We visited the British cemetery for the soldiers of the Peninsular War. The old town is is all cobblestone alleys and we kept getting lost but that was part of its charm.

This is a cool fort town on the Spanish border worth visiting. Great for practicing my Spanish and Portuguese. The old town is walkable and worth a day. Get a number of a local taxi service to explore the other two forts nearby, pick up groceries etc. Plan ahead of taking a comboio or autoexpresso as it's in a pretty remote location so you can't just catch a train out every 30 minutes like you can in Lisbon.
The region it is in, the Alentejo is also generally quite beautiful and it's worth taking a bus to Estremoz and the Evora if in the area.

A great small restaurant recommended by the Hotel was Mercato, is a perfect place to dine. Excellent service and food cooked to order with a lot of attention to quality and flavours.
Such an amazing place right in the heart of Elvas. This place is BIG and can accommodate many. Added plus, kitchen to cook meals. Highlight...the roof top balcony to view the city.
Oh, and, I loved the window seats!
The host was very friendly and we were gifted with a bolo cake and port wine 🍷
I would definitely suggest this place and if ever in Elvas again....I would rent here again.
Lovely location. Gorgeous house. Super staff. Nice breakfast. Beds sweet, but mattresses not good. Also, someone else’s air conditioner or other machine came on periodically throughout the night. The machine was on the terrace below our window. Periods of peace then periods of noise. A bit annoying. So not a good night. Otherwise, it was a super place to stay.
The hotel is gorgeous and we had a very pleasant stay, though it was short. It's in a renovated monastery with olive tree gardens, the view from our big room was fantastic, and the inner courtyard next to the breakfast room is fabulous (not to mention the breakdast itself). We would definitely come back for a longer stay because there are many nice places to visit.

It’s an historic hotel embedded in one of the star formations of this fortified town. Dry moats and military turrets on the perimeter punctuate a beautiful lawned terrace with swimming pools. You will remember this stay for its comfort, elegance and uniqueness.
Super friendly staff, beautiful place, good restaurant, nice location, the bed was comfortable, and overall I feel any of the wrong aspects I could have talked with the hotel but I was only staying for a night so it wasn't that much of a deal.
This hotel was good, the price great value, basic but clean. Breakfast acceptable. Hotel very well situation just on the road bringing you to Spain so very handy for those who are crossing the border to Spain in Elvas.
Old world charm hotel which was originally a pousada in Elvas. Very calm atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff! Very good breakfast served because of current situation. Strict hygiene procedures.
A very green hotel. Solar powered heating and much of the electricity, too.
Very friendly hotel owners, great breakfast, absolutely gorgeous jogging around the house and neighboring fields.
Beautiful place, located very conveniently not far from a motorway. Old villa turned into a hotel. There is even a chapel on the premises. Great breakfast which is included into the price.
The apartment is located in the centre of Elvas, in an old building. The apartment has been renovated and has a fully equipped kitchen and airconditioning.
