Guest Review: Interesting building - a 17th C nunnery that later was used as a military base and is now a really excellent hotel. Our bedroom was large, quiet and with comfy bed. The heated indoor pool - part of a gym and spa complex- was much enjoyed! The hotel is inside the old town, just a short walk from the castle and for us as Brits the English cemetery was a fascinating insight to the 1811/12 battles led by Wellington. We loved Elvas!
Guest Review: Loved everything about the place a little haven. Breakfast was exceptional! Staff were very friendly and helpful Roof top pool is amazing and the décor superb
Guest Review: Breakfast was delicious Guys were really nice and treated us with a very tasty dessert in honor of our anniversary There is a nice farm on the territory
