Hotels with Swim-up Rooms in Evora

We hired a villa for 4 nights in April for two adults and two young children (age 9 and 7). We just wanted to relax and explore the local area - the town of Évora and the surrounding countryside, including the cork oaks and ancient olive trees. Apparently it’s really hot in summer (35-40C)… even in April it was peaking in the mid 20s C. The villa was very spacious, with two good-sized bedrooms, and well-equipped, including a kitchen. The outside area was private, good for relaxing by the pool with views of the countryside. Our children loved the farm and the kids’ play area. There were lots of tame animals for petting - goats, sheep and a pony. The kids’ club was well organised and our children enjoyed some the activities - pottery and pizza making. We chose the hotel because it had an indoor pool (the outdoor pools are too cold in April!) Pool was a bit small but did the job - we went every day. Restaurant food (including the breakfast buffet) and service were generally quite good, especially the grill menu, but the bar and restaurant lacked a bit of ambience. Possibly the wine could’ve been more free flowing! The local old railway line is a great spot for cycling and running. Overall, we had an excellent stay and would recommend the hotel - fairly good value for money and something different from the Algarve!

We had the most amazing time at Octant Évora. Thank you!! We were travelling with our 1 year old daughter and this is the first truly family friendly hotel we have ever been to. There were toys and play areas everywhere. Small details like microwaves, bottle warmers etc. baby monitors. Everything was made so easy. The hotel itself is lovely and feels very luxurious. There is one pool for kids and three separate adult only pools which are beautiful. We left our daughter napping and enjoyed spending time in the adult pools which are small and intimate - we mostly had a pool to ourselves which was amazing. The hotel has great grounds, animals you can meet and a lovely lake walk. Staff were super friendly, helpful and generally brilliant. Would recommend this hotel to anyone with young families, but anyone could have a nice time here

Everything. From the moment we stepped in the hotel, to meeting the staff, the Christmas dining service, the general atmosphere of the hotel and even the guests, the services like the fitness room, pool, sauna and massage treatments - we LOVED. The rooms are so spacious and a great size to chill out in. Bathroom, all good. Outdoor mini plunge pools with the seating area, lovely way to relax with a book. The farm - adorable. Loved going to see the goats and pigs every day. We did an activity booked through the hotel of the horse ride which was also lovely too.

We loved the surprise element of it. The photos and description gave very positive expectations, and we must say that immediately it exceeded our expectations. The place is beautiful, the rooms are very spacious and comfortable, the food in the restaurant is excellent and the facilities offer all the relaxation you need. It was so fine to be there we didn't even leave the facilities to explore the surroundings outside, as it has its own hiking paths in nature, including contemplation pools to enjoy beautiful sunsets and the stars at night. Definitely recommendable!

Location - pure Alentejo! Peaceful, quiet, relaxing! Design throughout very well considered. unbelievably comfortable and beautiful spa, pool areas, & organic garden. So fresh, such clean linens, rooms, bath etc Fantastic bonus pillow choice service. Very thigh full bowl of fruit and little handwritten note of welcome ( nice touch) an even better touch was the ice cold scented hand-towel 👌🏻 Food is top notch in quality, quantity ( generous) and great variety … ( whether dinner or breakfast) Freshest! Bikes available - great for sunset rides.

We loved our stay here - a one night get away from our 2 year old who we left with the grandparents. Though once we arrived I had wished he was with us, as there was such an incredible kids program on offer. Even though the place is clearly very kid/family friendly, it still has a beautiful inviting grown up feel, definitely something for everyone. The food was good, the indoor pool lovely, the grounds are peaceful. We'd consider coming back for a proper family holiday in the future.

The grounds are beautiful and peaceful. The breakfast had tons of options and there was always space around the pools to relax. We visited between stops in Porto and Lisbon and enjoyed the slow pace and tranquility offered. The staff was also kind and rooms were clean.

Amazing hotel, with excellent service and food! You can easily spend 4 days over there and not get bored. The new area for an evening stroll close to the lake is something special! The heated pool facing the countryside was magical at nightfall!

Incredible service, grounds, food and ambiance. We loved basking in the sun overlooking the fields at the adult pools on the far side of the hotel.

This beautiful boutique hotel was in a great location, away from crowds but still an easy walk to the sights. The pool was a nice respite from the afternoon heat and we had a lovely room just off the pool courtyard. The reception, seating area and restaurant were very tastefully decorated and we enjoyed the excellent breakfast. Staff were extremely warm and helpful, and I would definitely stay here again.

This place is beautiful. The rooms were compact yet had everything one needs. A peaceful pool with a patio and pool to sit back and enjoy a few serene moments. Breakfast was above and beyond outstanding. We ate dinner there and it was amazing with very attentive yet not stuffy service.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Mourasuites, and I honestly cannot recommend this hotel enough. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, the service was nothing short of outstanding. Every member of the staff made us feel genuinely welcomed and well looked after. The rooms were beautifully appointed spotlessly clean, stylish, and thoughtfully equipped with all the modern conveniences you’d expect from a top-tier hotel. We had USB-A and USB-C charging points, a great coffee machine, a fantastic rain shower, and one of the most comfortable beds we’ve ever slept in. The setting of Mourasuites is equally impressive. Tucked into a picturesque town, the ambiance is peaceful and charming. Waking up to the gentle sound of church bells in the morning felt like something out of a storybook. The small, serene pool in the central courtyard added an extra layer of calm and relaxation to our stay. Breakfast each morning was a highlight elegantly presented, with real attention to detail and quality. It was clear that great care went into making it a special experience. Although this may be a small-town hotel, it rivals many of the best we’ve stayed in around the world. Mourasuites is a true gem, and we’ll absolutely be back.

Mourasuites is a delightful little hotel! It has a very cosy lobby and although the hotel is small they operate a restaurant within it! And likely because of that, the breakfast is simply AMAZING! A fantastic cold spread of hams, cheeses, pastries, and fruit. They even had chestnuts! And it doesn’t stop there! They also allow guests to order a hot freshly cooked breakfast item - omelette, eggs, bacon, pancakes or French toast! It was simply the best and most impressive breakfast we had on our 2 week trip in Portugal. We had a ground floor room one of a few that surround the small swimming pool. The room was extremely tiny, although it was spotlessly clean and had everything that is needed including bathrobes and slippers. If it was a tiny bit larger it would be perfect! Still it was very very good and we really enjoyed our 1 night stay. We should also give a shout out to the reception staff who are both friendly and helpful.

MouraSuites had a really relaxed, luxurious and friendly feel to it - really enjoyed our stay. It is located in the old town of Evora an east walk to all the attractions yet very quiet and peaceful. There’s reserved spaces to park while you drop off your bags and gated parking is 200 metres further down the road. Ana on reception was kind and efficient, our room overlooked the pool and was comfortable. Breakfast was excellent - Loarna was excellent and provided local information on Evora too. Finally Evora is a great place to visit and explore. An excellent hotel and would stay again.

Luckily, we were able to get a reservation at the Italian restaurant. We tried the pizza, excellent. Then, we tried the Italian dishes..excellent. Great wine too. I heard some complain because they could not get in. It was booked. Maybe better idea you let me know ahead of time to book at your dining restaurants. The pool was pretty but the water was so cold. Loved lunch by the pool. Easy to take taxi into cute little town. We bought a couple plates to take home and love them. On display in our new home. Loved the indoor pool. Great idea..

We enjoyed everything about our stay at the Convento. Situated on the outskirts of town (just a 10 minute uber ride to the old city), it offers a serene and tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Despite being fully booked during our stay, we felt as if we had the entire place to ourselves. The vast corridors, comfortably spacious rooms, and elegant decor exuded a sense of grandeur and history that made our stay truly special. We also enjoyed the amenities offered at Convento. The outdoor and indoor pools were a real treat, and my husband and I took full advantage of them. It was a particular pleasure to lounge by the outdoor pool and have drinks served to us, adding an extra layer of relaxation to our stay. The outdoor spaces and terraces allowed us to savor evening cocktails while overlooking the picturesque courtyard. We also enjoyed the daily complementary buffet breakfasts, consisting of a large and savour spread. We had dinner one night at the convento and were impressed by both the service and quality of food offered. If ever in the region again, we would not hesitate to return.

Historic hotel. Lots of history. The restaurant where breakfast was served was an old wine cellar which was beautiful. We had dinner in that restaurant and it was exceptional. We ordered broiled sea bass with lobster risotto. Absolutely delicious! Our room in the new section (built in 2005) was beautiful quite large and had a balcony overlooking the outdoor pool. The indoor heated pool was beautiful as well. Great hot tub, Turkish steam room and a sauna. It was very relaxing.

We loved our stay!! Even with a wedding going on during our stay, the hotel didn't seem too busy, other than a full parking.lot :-) The pool area was great, plenty of chairs, towels, and umbrellas. Drink service by the pool was top notch-- all of the staff was great. The breakfast each morning was high quality and a great assortment. We're already planning to come back !!

Wonderful compound - a historical monastery where the original spirit and details are nicely maintained and incorporated. Most impressive was the Church that was still there and active, incorporated in the domain. One of the most beautiful Churches we saw on our trip in Portugal. Nice outside pool area and a little spa and inside pool.

This apartment was an oasis for us at the end of a long and frantic trip. The neighborhood is tranquil and the apartment is really beautiful. Spending time on the patio watching the birds, waiting for sunset with a glass of wine was so peaceful at the end of the hot days. The bedrooms are large and beautifully decorated. All 3 bathrooms were squeaky clean. We really enjoyed our time here and would return in a heartbeat.

Beautiful apartment. The rooftop deck has a nice view over the city and made for a wonderful place to sit and relax with a glass of local wine. The interior was very modern, clean and comfortable. Had everything we needed for our family of 4 to have a nice stay in Evora. Location is great as it's close to the main sights but far enough out of the busyness.

We LOVED our stay here! The apartment was clean, the bed was comfortable, the bathroom is modern, and the fully equipped kitchen had everything we needed. One tip for those staying here who have a car: there's plenty of free parking within a 5 min walk from the apartment just down the hill to the south next to the elementary school. No time restrictions or charge.

The location was great for walking, and we were able to park the car in a free lot less than a 5 minute walk away. The apartment was big enough for 3 adults, and the terrace was great at night. Also, when we arrived I found that the hairdryer was missing and one was brought to us within the hour. Excellent service and communication.

Quaint and charming location with nice shops and café close by with wonderful owners and people. Our apartment was clean, functional and the hosts were very helpful and always responsive! They also provided good information about the apartment and the town with sights and restaurants! That was greatly appreciated - thank you! We enjoyed our stay in Évora

This apartment, located in one of the many historic streets of Evora, is thoroughly modern, spacious, and very comfortable. The two bedrooms are on opposite ends of the apartment and both have private access to full bathrooms with showers, great for two couples. The modern kitchen, dinette, and living room feature an open concept design. Thanks to Alice for being a helpful, responsive, and accommodating host. There was plenty of information in a binder on things to do, nearby shopping, as well as recommendations on restaurants. Alice ordered taxis for us on our departure day, which was greatly appreciated.

Everything was within walking distance. We were concerned about parking but you can park near the castle or the hospital. It's actually closer than it looks on the map. The sofa was quite cosy to lounge on. The toilet in the master bedroom was great. The team managing the property was always responsive.

We loved how close the apartment is to all the sites of Evora. It's clean and modern. It's nice to have a little living room and table and chairs, and the teeny kitchen was nice. The check in process was easy, and the manager communicated well. The area is quiet.

Good location in town, not far from coffee shops, but only 5 to 10 minute walk to restaurants and shops. Comfortable apartment with everything we needed. Good communication and help when needed. Good instruction book with restaurant and tour suggestions. Thanks, Alice, for a great stay!

The room is very clean and nice decoration. All kitchen equipment were prepared well. They open us the air conditioner before we came and it is very nice. The Nespresso is well prepared for capsule for all of guests. The staff is quick response.

Beautiful hotel in Évora. Quiet and peaceful. Easy walking to everywhere. It was not hot when we were there so the courtyard was perfect for sitting and enjoying a cocktail. I imagine in the heat of central Portugal in the summer, would be nice to have a pool.

We had a very nice stay and were sad to leave. The rooms are spacious and very well-maintained. Housekeeping was quite unobtrusive and did a good job. We enjoyed the included daily breakfast which offers a small selection of items plus made-to-order eggs and pancakes. In the late afternoon and evening, you can sit in the terrace or bar area and sip drinks and order food as well which we did our first night. The hotel is located just within the wall of the old city so is close to the various sites. It's an easy 7-10 minute walk to the furthest sites. Nearby are numerous restaurants, stores, etc. Parking can be a bit tricky as there are a couple of spaces on the road plus a 10 car underground garage accessed through the courtyard via a very steep driveway. If you were planning to drive in and out multiple times a day, I would suggest parking in the lot just outside the city wall as it saves you having to drive through half the old city just to get out of it. While the tour books recommend one full day in Evora to cover the sites, I'd suggest adding a day to give more time, do a wine tasting, check out the museum, and so forth. That along with a nice dinner somewhere plus another stay here can make for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation.

Loved this hotel before we even arrived! To begin with, their masterly "Before You Arrive" electronic brochure made me want to rearrange my trip so I could stay in Evora longer. A truly loving and affectionate introduction to their home city and region. Then I overloaded their customer service staff as I tried to arrange guides and restaurants in advance--prompted by their "Before You Arrive" recommendations. Timing and guides didn't work out because of timing constraints, but the staff kept trying. But we were delighted in the restaurant advice. The hotel staff even tried to help me book restaurants in other cities in Portugal when my local hotel was unhelpful. Loved the location, breakfasts, and rooms. Their on-site parking was tight, but convenient. [We should have rented smaller cars. Proved true here and elsewhere!]

Lovely place right inside of the city walls. Google maps took us right to it without a hitch. Easy parking in garage under the hotel. After parking, we just left our car as Evora is a very walkable city. It's a straight shot on foot along one of the main roads to the main square. Our suite was spacious and extremely comfortable. This is a true boutique hotel with many lovely touches. Breakfast was lavish and included eggs or omelettes to order. We also enjoyed coffee and tea in our room The staff was very kind and the fellow who checked us in spoke excellent English and was extremely helpful. Our only regret was not booking a longer stay. We will next time!

Hotel Albergaria do Calbvario - BEAUTIFUL! The hotel staff were absolutely amazing and so helpful with any questions or concerns. The property is lovely and a short walk to very nice restaurants and the town square. The room was spacious and comfortable. The breakfast was a small but plentiful buffet and you can order omelettes/cooked eggs. We were supposed to have a Walking through Evora for Private Half day tour -this did not happen because of miscommunication through the service company and tour guide. The Guest Service person at the hotel heard our conversation and got us a better tour (not walking in the heat) to see the same landmarks. That’s service! He saved the day!

We absolutely loved the breakfast, it was delivered in a wonderful basket to our door, it looked amazing and tasted wonderful as well. We love the beds they were so comfortable. The pool was gorgeous and the fruit trees in the courtyard added to the charm

I recommend this place for its special atmosphere and ethnic character. It is very comfortable place with all facilities in bathroom and kitchen. Owners are very friendly and hospital. Swimming pool area is very nice. They serve very good breakfast in basket.

good location when you plan to visit evora or menhirs swimming pool breakfast that we got everyday in the basket- fresh fruit, jams and juices really good and tasty modern equipment no problem with parking

Great place, in a really small and nice village. The house is great, the patio, the pool, the service, everything makes our life easy when you are staying here.

I love the concept of this place as it's a small village and the houses of the village are the ones we rent. There are different types of houses. Ours was an open space with a big bed, we had a kitchenette on the right when entering and then a big bathroom and a small table with 2 chairs, 1 sofa and an original clothes hanger. The swimming pool area is very nice and chilled. It's pet friendly!!!

Amazing location. Super friendly staff and beautiful clean and modern accommodation. Outdoor pool area is spacious and you can order drinks poolside. The staff are wonderful. Great parking if you are hiring a car. No need to use it again as the hotel is so well located you can wql everywhere. Loved this hotel.

Fabulous, new, modern hotel, great location within the old town, lovely outdoor terrace with pool; also, indoor pool, spa and gym, restaurant and café. Underground parking a real bonus. Attentive staff and a very good breakfast served until 11am. Highly recommended.

Pool was very welcome after a long day, room was nice and clean. Staff very helpful and friendly. Short walk to bars and restaurants. Pool towels available for a deposit.

We stayed here for 1 night in September. It exceeded my expectations. The hotel looks new, stylish, and modern. It is super clean and the staff is nice. 1. Indoor and outdoor swimming pool are available inside the property. They offer massage services in Azure Wellness, but no one was there when we visited. 2. The room is excellent. The bed and pillow are comfortable. We have complimentary water at the room. The bathroom is clean and stylish with marble. The hot water works perfectly. I do not have anything to complain about the room and amenities. 3. Breakfast is included on our booking. It is pleasant. 4. It is only walking distance to the city center.

Loved staying at this hotel for our one night in Evora. The beautiful modern architecture is a nice contrast to the rich history of the town. It was very hot when we arrived and so having the pool on site was wonderful. We didnt dine at the hotel but there were great options nearby. Perfect location for all the sights and i was able to find a lovely running path nearby in the morning too. Looking back, we could have stayed 2 nights and added a wine tour in the Alentejo!

A really good hotel clean and well located, within walking distance to everything. The rooms are spacious and clean. There’s an outdoor pool and an indoor pool, a fun spa area including a sauna, heated pool, and jacuzzi. The staff provided very friendly service. There’s a fun rooftop bar. We really enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was tasty, though there were no vegetables.

The high ceilings and wide hallways welcome you into a sense of grandeur as you walk to your room. While the rooms are spacious and comfortable, the pool area steals the show. The large outdoor pool is surrounded by plenty of chairs with umbrellas for shade if you choose. We opted for breakfast in the sunny and cheerful courtyard adjacent to the pool. The parking was easy in the garage connected to the hotel though it was an additional charge of 10 Euro, which was worth it to us for the convenience. It's about a 10 minute walk to the center of town through quiet streets. Evora surprised us with one of the best meals we've ever enjoyed at Tua Madre so we're very glad we opted for this stop between Lisbon and Lagos.

Location was perfect- within 15 minute walk to all the restaurants, shopping, & attractions in Evora. Outdoor pool, Indoor pool, sauna, and steam room were all great! Room was spacious. Breakfast was fantastic. Staff was very friendly and helpful! Would definitely stay here again!

Classy boutique hotel centrally located, competitively priced. One of the best full breakfast buffets experienced in two weeks of Portugal accommodations. Spacious rooms, pool, beautiful grounds, covered outdoor dining area and a staff that goes over the top to please. Special shout out to reception personnel — Marta and Miguel - for above and beyond service. Secure parking on site, staff to help with bags and assist guests. This facility is prepared. During the Portugal-Spain blackout on April 28-29, this hotel kept the lights on and drinks cold with their own back up generators.

We just stayed one day/Evening and this hotel was the best one of all. It is roomy, Modern and easy to find. However, the parking is very difficult so we had to pull up to the front door and the valet not only took our luggage but parked our car. Excellent service. They also have a great pool outside and inside.

This is an outstanding accommodation- clean, and friendly staff. Thank you Patricia for writing down the names of cheeses at the amazing breakfast buffet- that included Prosecco! Now, to address the negative reviews. This is Europe. Rooms are smaller. But, we had ample space for 2 people, 2 large suitcases and 2 carry on bags. The bathroom sink is a trough style found in many breweries, wineries and restaurants in the US- usually made of metal. It is ample size unless you want to do dishes! The pool is not small. Most of the 42 people on our tour spent the afternoon in that pool. Not sure if you were expecting Olympic size or what? I leave you with 2 thoughts- 1. Stop being so miserable and you will better enjoy life 2. I am grateful not to be traveling with you

The room for the two of us was nicely appointed and a good size. The stone motif throughout the hotel is very attractive and distinctive. The breakfast was something to look forward to and we got a surprise birthday cake & candle with champagne and happy conversation from our servers, sisters Patricia and Tatiana (If I didn't misspell her name) for my wife. The breakfast staff put out a nice, wholesome spread. The hotel location is spacious and only a short walk to the walled - in Old Town. The reception staff was available and helpful. the bathroom toiletries set was very nice, too. On the roof is a spa and swimming pool. After many big breakfasts on our trip, an invigorating swim with beautiful surrounding views was a necessary treat. The train station is nearby, 10-15 minute walk with light luggage or a 4 minute taxi ride. we would be happy to return, if we get the chance.

Great location. Staff very helpful - we arrived early hoping to store our luggage but room was ready so were able to check in right away. Room was spacious and had a small balcony which was a bonus. Pool area was clean with lots of seating / sun loungers. Had dinner in the restaurant and food was amazing. Breakfast was also delicious with lots of choice!

We stayed one night and immediately regretted planning only one night in this hotel. Facilities were great; high standard and clean. We particularly enjoyed the rooftop terrace and pool. Breakfast was also very satisfactory with a great variety of both savor and sweet food. We also benefited from free parking right outside the hotel. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Easy walking to city center. Outdoor pool and sitting area were beautiful but unfortunately when we were there in May it was to cold to use the facilities. Breakfast was delicious and fresh! We were able to park close in a free lot. Room had a small outside sitting space which was enjoyable.

We like the hotel , the room is good size and comfortable. It has a balcony with pool view. The pool is a lifesaver , as we had really hot days 38C. The breakfast is 10 euro and we think it is a good value. The parking is underground and free.

Very clean & modern hotel in great location Excellent breakfast , great spacious rooms with perfect quiet air con, easy & safe parking Sheltered sunny pool area. The stand out plus of this hotel is the friendly & professional staff. Great job and we would definitely recommend & stay here again !

Clean, comfy, rooms were modern and large, staff were helpful and friendly, pool area was lovely and not too busy, bar prices were reasonable, location was great to walk into centre, bed was amazing

Situated just 100m from the walls of the old city, with a very modern pool and sun lounging area which is totally insulated from any noise from the outside world.

Location very near centre Very comfortable Staff very helpful and very polite, particularly lady who booked us in Has pool but not in season yet Excellent breakfast

We arrived early and made sure to let the gentleman at reception know we were not there to check in, just enquiring about parking. We were given a very warm welcome and told not only that there was a park available for us, but, our room was also ready. There is very limited parking and it is given on a first in first served basis, fortunately, I had read the reviews and researched the town, so I was prepared. Our room was spacious, clean, comfortable and quiet. The bed linen and towels are good quality and there are many sitting rooms and courtyards dotted around the hotel so it feels extra spacious. The water pressure in the shower is powerful and shampoo, conditioner and shower gel are supplied. All the staff were kind and friendly and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. The location is right in the centre of everything. We had a family member who doesn't enjoy walking who got to see all the sights because we were so central. Breakfast was simple and fresh, eggs, bacon, fresh fruit and juices, cold meats, cheese and more. I believe The Noble House is great value for money, given you don't have to drive anywhere once you are there, the quality of the rooms and the standard of service provided by the friendly staff.

We must of had the best room in the hotel, maybe in all of Évora. It was built against the Roman wall, so one side was large rock and brick. It knocked on the rocks to make sure it wasn’t plaster covered styrofoam.the room was so cool. Ok, it isn’t as big as their suites, it is poorly lit, but so what. The shower was great, fantastic towels and robes. Bed was so so and pillows need upgrading. Limited parking and very tight. We had wine on their cute balcony and a nice breakfast.

This is a lovely boutique hotel in the old centre of Evora, in an old building with a modern makeover. The staff were really friendly and helpful with some good tips for local dining. Our room was large with a bàlcony overlooking the town. It was very clean, quiet with a comfortable bed and good wifi. Free parking was available on-site, rare for a hotel in old towns. A lovely complementary breakfast was provided. It was within easy walking distance of all the sites in the old town.

We arrived before 3, but Gonsalv did all the "paperwork", allowed us to park our car, and leave our bags until the room was ready. When we did get to our room after an outstanding day of sightseeing, it was a beautiful terrace room that was relaxing to sit after a long walk, and gave us a stunning sunrise the next morning. The location is very close to all of the major historic sites & fabulous restaurants. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel.

This place is pure magic. Best room ive ever stayed in (room 1). The staff is amazing. Parking is non existent and you have to pay for municipal parking but once thats done you can walk everywhere. The dinner was great and the breakfast was close to a bed and breakfast place; generous and delicious. Everyone MUST stay here. I cannot wait to come back. Its more than awesome its simply magic and unique. Amazing property with great staff. What a gem!!!

Loved the location within close and easy walking distance to the historic centre. The beautiful pool area was a wonderful retreat on a hot day with a super fresh pool and comfy loungers. It looks like the furnishings and decor are all new. Recently renovated and looking good. So many seating areas within the hotel to visit rather than being confined to a room. Open and airy. Our room was beautiful. Spacious with a huge deck looking out to the pool and wall of the city. The staff were all so helpful and friendly, we enjoyed meals in the restaurant and drinks from the bar. Service was great. So glad that we were able to store our bags after check out so that we could have a bit more time wandering the cobbled streets. Would stay again!

Very good hotel. Nice rooms and great facilities. Good swimming pool. Free pool table and popcorn! Exceptional choice and quality of breakfast

Great layout, amenities like pool and pool table which were very good. Great atmosphere.

Clean, comfortable rooms. Staff very nice. Has a nice bar and plenty of room where you can gather with friends. Great pool with lots of outdoor seating. Next to the breakfast room is wonderful area for lounging, playing games/cards, and a pool table. Breakfast is good with lots of options.

The hotel is in a central location, roughly a 5-minute walk to the main attractions. It also has private parking. The staff was very professional and really helpful when needed. The hotel has many places for relaxing, both outside and inside. Air conditioning is available in the rooms and in the common areas. Considering that the outside temperature was 38°C in the shade, this was definitely a plus. Outside, you can enjoy the swimming pool and plenty of shade. For kids, there is a small pool, less deep, with warmer water and some shade. The kids also appreciated a dedicated area for them, with many toys (including LEGO) and books. The room was clean and recently renovated, including all the amenities you usually expect (TV, Wifi, Safe, ..) Also, the hotel provides a bar in the lobby, and a private restaurant. The breakfast was very good, featuring a great variety of dishes, including fresh fruits, pastries. Note that the hotel was under heavy renovation, therefore some areas were a little bit noisy.

Very clean and beautiful hotel, spacious room, two big outdoor pools and a jacuzzi in a beautifully designed garden with plenty of sunbeds. (there is also an indoor pool and a gym, but we didn't use it). Beach resort vibe even if no sea nearby :) The breakfast was great, we especially enjoyed breakfast outside on the terrace with pool/garden views. Location is excellent, just at the border of the historical center, so you don't need to drive/walk with your luggage in the old town narrow streets while you can easily settle down and walk to all the places of interest in 5-10 min. There is also a free parking area a couple of minutes walk from the hotel. We've had a great time in Evora, I'd be happy to come back in a few years and stay there again :)

Really liked the place overall, and would definitely recommend and come back. There are just some nitpicks that would made my stay an overall 10/10. I understand the rationale behind the interior swimming pool booking hours, but that really takes away a bit of the freedom of sightseeing the city and just go to the pool on return; additionally, despite not making a huge difference, bathroom door didn’t fully close and the sink faucet is far from the centre and therefore inconvenient. The gym facilities could also be upgraded and improved.

First stop in Portugal was in Evora at the Vila Gale Evora Hotel. Our experience was wonderful. The hotel was very modern with restaurant, pool and bar. It was run very efficiently and the staff was very personable and helpful. The rooms were comfortable and bed was great. Give it 5 stars. Like to thank some staff ...Constanca, Joana, Bea and Miguel, the asst. mgr. for the restaurant reservation he got for us on our last night in Evora at"Lombardo's", it was a winner.

Great location and wonderful staff! The pools were perfect for a sunny day after exploring Évora!

Super family hotel, conveniently placed in Evora, which is a lovely place. The facilities are excellent, including a super pool. Cafeteria style eating may not suit everyone but the food was very good. Our second stay, hopefully not our last

Location was great, a little outside the city into the country but only a few minutes by car into the centre and a wonderful view of the city from our balcony. Rooms were comfortable with enough space for our needs. Breakfast was good and the hotel owner, her husband and their staff were welcoming and very helpful. The swimming pool, whilst a little chilly, was a great bonus. We had the pool area to ourselves on our recent visit.

The hotel was absolutely immaculate clean towels everyday, great touch having a fridge in the room. A very quiet location we got taxi's into town but we would rather stay here than in the centre. The pool area is immaculate with changing facilities a great hotel and so much parking. Breakfast is buffet and totally adequate

Great salt water pool, close to Évora which is a amazing city to visit, very nice staff and nice breakfast. The room and bathroom were large and comfortable, Late (12h) checkout.

We love the position as it wasn’t in the middle of town we love the fact it had the magnificent swimming pool.

Good breackfast, great pool and facilities

The ratio quality/price was good, the breakfast was very good, the bed was little hard but comfortable. The carpet of the room was not so clean (we believe it should be removed). Be aware the rooms with pool view: they can be a bit noisy because of the engines of the kitchen and the pool system. However, if you close the windows and use the AC you can avoid this inconvenience. The staff was very polite and helpful.

We were a group of 8 cycling through the Alentejo region and this was our first stop. The convent was selected by our bike tour company and we loved it. What a perfect location for exploring Evora. We could walk to shopping and each of our restaurants and there is lots of good sightseeing. The hotel was extremely comfortable after cycling long distances and so beautiful inside. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. They found a good outdoor patio for keeping our bicycles and we really enjoyed the delicious breakfasts each morning. We didn’t get a chance to use the outdoor pool but it looked nice. We just had 2 nights here and there was so much to see and do in the town of Evora after our cycling each day. It is a beautiful area of Portugal and this hotel is perfect place to stay.

We had a lovely welcome to the Pousada for our 4 night stay from Telma . We stayed in a superior room which was what we expected from the photos on the website . Pousadas are generally full of character and are a little quirky and this one was no exception. It’s right in the historic centre so restaurants etc are all nearby. We had dinner on a couple for nights which was nicely served . The breakfast was very good with lots of choice and we were welcomed with a smile from João every morning . We used the pool and also the bar by the lobby. We had a great stay here and would recommend it for a stay in Evora !

Beautifully appointed hotel in an historic building. Very comfortable and quiet. Dinner & Breakfast were delicious and the variety of choices was wonderful. The front desk was so helpful and very friendly. The pool area was lovely and quiet the night we arrived.

What a beautiful historic location! The staff was so helpful, the facilities & rooms were beautiful & the pool area was such a treat! The breakfast spread was outstanding! We were happy to park the car and walk everywhere!

Nothing but 5 stars for this fantastic hotel. Spotlessly clean, incredibly friendly, perfect location. Great beds and excellent showers. In short everything you could want for a city break hotel. The only negative is no swimming pool but the positives are so strong this really did not matter.

Moov Hotel Evora was a wonderful stay. The great breakfast was in a bright room, with a lot of choices and variety.The room was comfortable, temperature easily controlled, bathroom well stocked. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the location within the Evora walls was excellent, since a stay outside the walls would require driving. You'll be happy here.

Fantastic hotel. Basic but had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Easy to find, great underground car park and a bonus that there was EV charging. The location is fantastic. A short 2 minute walk to all the attractions, bars, restaurants etc. The staff were very polite and helpful and the breakfast was great value.

Moov hotel was lovely. Claudio checked us in and gave us some valuable information. Where to eat, drink and what to see. He also let us take our wine to the courtyard to enjoy and supplied us with glasses. The underground garage was a nice perk. However, getting in was a bit sporty.

Very nice hotel. Comfortable. Everything what you need is available. We didn't have breakfast at the hotel. We went to the café called Arcada on the main square and had a cheap perfect breakfast there. Hotel formally has two stars but we would give it three stars for sure.

The Hotel and the property is very beautiful, staff is nice, was a very nice experience. The only thing is that the pool area could handle a little maintainence. Fitness and overall Hotel is amazing

I love the fact that where little houses instead of an hotel you had more freedom to eat an meal inside of you wanted to! The inside swimming pool water was very warm, my daughter’s loved it

Wonderful location in the middle of Alentejo nature. Pure peace and silence ❤️ Good variety of breakfast. Spacious free parking. Big pool with great view. The room has banheira that personally for me is a big bonus :)))

Beautiful decor hotel in a peaceful setting. The individual pods/rooms are very large, with a seperate sitting room. The large bed was comfortable with good bedding and pillows. The breakfast was fantastic and we also dined in the restaurant and had a great dinner. The pool was lovely and warm and a super place to relax. The hotel is well located for Evora and the surrounding area.

We liked the inside pool, had a nice size and a good temperature. The room was spacious, with a small terrace, that unfortunately we couldn't use due to the rain. We booked this hotel for the spa, and we weren't disappointed, it offered a lot of options.

The pool, the general addition, the calmness and aesthetics of the place

swimming pool comfortable beds pleasant surroundings good value friendly helpful staff

Good hotel, electric charger, nice swimming pool.

Overall a good hotel. Friendly staff, spacious common areas, well landscaped pool, good breakfast and very good buffets. Rooms are clean but tea/ coffee making facilities would be welcome. AC did not work which made it uncomfortable on the very hot days (41° during our stay). Lots of families so could be a little noisy. However, for us it was perfect as we had our own child.

Breakfast was good, pool also fine. Nice sporting facilities.

Newly opened in 2023, this hotel is modern and comfortable. USB charging ports (even by the bed), Smeg kettles and fridges in the rooms, plus the rooftop pool and bar are details that I did not expect from a Hilton Garden Inn. Crabtree & Evelyn bath amenities were a nice touch, as were the thick white towels. Staff were all excellent and went the extra mile. The breakfast buffet had lots of choices, including a station for omelettes and fried eggs. Happy Hour at the pool bar featured a different thing every night, i.e. gin. This place is terrific. I would stay here again.

Superb hotel ! Looks brand new and the room had a very nice modern look to it and was spacious. Staff was friendly and helpful. Very nice top floor bar/pool/lounging area, too bad is was getting a little cool outside to really enjoy the nice pool (mid September). Nice restaurant attached to the Hotel and breakfast available for a reasonable fee was very nice. Parking outside was plentiful when we were there and included in the price. 5 minutes of walking and you enter the old Evora historic area with tons of dining and sight seeing options. 5* experience ! Loved it ! Thanks!

The Hilton Garden Inn Evora was conveniently located within walking distance to a number of Central Historical District attractions. Uber was also easily obtainable and extremely reasonable, so we left our car parked in the hotel's protected, underground space throughout our entire stay. We appreciated an early check-in after our drive from Estoril, the hotel staff was wonderful and the breakfasts were hearty. Their rooftop bar was a very pleasant space in which to enjoy some drinks, and even dinner one evening in the hotel's restaurant was surprisingly excellent. If the weather had been better, then a dip in the rooftop pool would have been delightful.

This is our go to hotel property in Evora. We like the layout of the rooms; the physical location of the hotel is great for easy walking access to the town. The staff is always friendly and helpful. We have found that breakfast is consistently delicious with made to order eggs and a wide variety of meats and cheeses. Would also recommend the pool and rooftop bar as great places to relax.

A really nice hotel very close to the old town entrance. Very modern and a great staff. Fabio the desk clerk was great and took really good care of us. Nice gym, pool, and other facilities. The room was also very good, overall the place to stay to explore the old town of Evora.

This is an old stately manor. As such they have to keep it as it was. So no elevators, swimming pool or phones in rooms. We felt like royalty and were treated with great consideration by the staff. There are all the art and furniture from the past. The beds are comfortable and the location is ideal . The breakfast is very adequate and they made modifications for us being vegan. So if you want atmosphere and service stay here. This will give you a true Portuguese experience. It is very clean. And the prices are very reasonable.

Historical property in the best location in Evora. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and shared the history of the property. It is amazing being able to stay in a 16th century house. You will not find such an interesting, full of character property like this in Evora, this is it!! Charming rooms, period pieces, scattered throughout the hotel. Stunning views. Exceptionally clean. Breakfast was offered in a huge room with antique furnishings. Kudos to the staff for being so attentive and helpful in every way possible. If you are looking for the Ikea bland hotel, this is not for you. The charming atmosphere would take you back to when the Noblemen's family was the owner. A very special Hotel. Highly recommend.

We loved our stay here! Upon check-in we asked for a dinner recommendation. The front desk clerk asked a few questions, then made a call and had a reservation for us. Dinner was amazing! 10/10. The hotel itself is ideally located, on a quiet hill near all the attractions in Evora. We were able to park the car close by and walk to everything. Our only wish was that we had planned to stay longer in the area. Breakfast was plentiful and varied. There was a machine that squeezed fresh orange juice. Wonderful! A lovely terrace two sitting rooms provided respite. The rooms were the perfect size and the bathroom was ample for the two of us.

I loved my stay here and in Evora. The staff were perfect and just couldn't have been more helpful. The accomodation is simple but fantastic, there's a sort of old fashioned elegance to the place and perhaps the best recomendation I can give is to say that I would have no hesitation at all in staying there again. It's also really well located for wandering around the wonderful town of Evora. I was travelling by motorcycle and I was able to leave my bike in a secure off road/gated area. I cant overstate just how helpful, friendly and respectful the staff were - this was areally good stop over - and the breakfast was good as well.

Fantastic experience! It’s a super old historical building (read as HUNDREDS of years old) that was ‘lightly’ renovated as a hotel. Also very close to everything in the city! The fanciest people should NOT stay here but those that enjoy history and don’t mind basic rooms will really enjoy it. Our night time staff (English name John) was awesome and we really enjoyed grabbing his attention from his work to chat in the lounge by the fireplace! Their owner now has a winery and my wife enjoyed the Rose. Thanks again John, we will stay again if we return!
