to get started.

My husband found every member of the staff more exceptional - friendly and helpful and hard-working - than any in his prior experience. The historic venue is ideally located and beautifully maintained. The meals surrounding a courtyard were delicious. The rooms are not large or ultra modern (they were monk ”cells” generations ago) but are very comfortable and spotless. The bed and linens are lovely.

Julie, United States of America

Everything: the room and the view; the quietness and cleanliness, the towels and the bed; the staff, including the bar staff (always helpful and friendly). Breakfast was excellent, except for the coffee - but expresso was provided upon request.

Emi, Luxembourg

Wonderful location. Great staff - went over and above to be helpful.

Laura, United States of America

Absolutely everything ! It was just amazing to be able to stay in an over 500yrs old building. The renovation was very well done so that the room was clean and comfortable. The staffs were very friendly and helpful as well.

Chiyo420, Japan

Staffs are very friendly and kind. The hotel is best situated to explore this small city. Parking is free.

Tonchan, Spain

We really liked the town and the convent was an interesting departure from hotels.

Chris, United States of America

Wonderful service, one-of-a-kind atmosphere, excellent location, great food (dinner in the restaurant and a delicious breakfast), the best place to be a "monk" and still enjoy the luxuries of life.

Peter, Germany

Location was right next to the ancient Roman ruins and within a few minutes to Church/walking district etc. Very unique property and well worth it.

Some of the dishes are a bit disappointing, for example the skin of pork belly is not crispy enough and meat too tough. Also dishes tend to be on the salty side.

“Evora is a wonderful place! And for the most unique experience, make sure to stay at Pousada!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Family Room (2 Adults + 1 children until 12 years old)
- • Stayed 3 nights
We had a lovely room with a view on the top floor (room 204) but the climb up two flights of stairs each night was almost too much. Paid for bags to be taken down on last day - didn't think I could manage to do it myself!
Excellent location - staff was exceptionally friendly and breakfast was amazing! Being so close to the Roman ruin meant we saw the columns at different times of the day including "magic hour." Stayed 3 days and could have added a 4th! Although the breakfast buffet has everything you could ask for the scrambled eggs that are on offer are not particularly warm. So, like a local, I asked for an omelette (mushroom & cheese) on the last day of my stay and it was the best I have every eaten! Ate one dinner at the hotel - pasta and duck - which was delicious but so very rich, I suffered after the meal. So be warned if you are not young or have a hardy constitution! For an exceptional dining experience with no indigestion (if you are prone to that) try Momentos just down the shopping street on the way to the main square of Evora. The chef creates "magic" with locally sourced meat and vegetables! No pasta, no potatoes, no rice ... but his creations are truly delicious and beautiful! Unless you google the location, you will miss this innocuous dining spot which looks like it only has one empty table in front but more seating (although still small) in dining area up a small flight of stairs. Make reservations! We were lucky getting a table in off season but this place is being discovered and will no doubt be lined up in full season!
