We had a lovely, large room with a patio door that opened overlooking a very nice street view. Lovely traditional tile headboard to the bed and grand curtains over the door. Breakfast was fantastic, the breakfast room was really beautiful, and the staff (Catarina?) talked with us briefly and we enjoyed chatting with her about life in Elvas. Lovely outside terrace with a great view of the surrounding area. Friendly staff. We felt at home here. Olive trees near the pool and a courtyard full of orange trees. We loved the spacious courtyard and beautiful trees.

Everything was great! In fact, we stayed an extra day.

This was a great place to stay during my motorcycle trip around Spain and Portugal. The hotel is perfectly located for access to the old historic centre. Motorcycle parking is perfect inside the courtyard and the staff could not have been more helpful at check in and during my stay. The accommodation itself was really nice and comfortable, my room was good as were the general facilities and I enjoyed my breakfast (which was additional to the room rate - but decent value). I suppose the best recommendation i can give is to say that I would stay there again without hesitation.

There was nothing at all that I didnt like, Next time I'm down this way I will stay in Elvas again and will use this hotel, although next time I will stay for more than one night.

If you want to visit the 17th Century defences of Elvas and the matching Star Fort, this is the hotel to stay at. Right on the walls at the entrance into the old town. Old fashioned hotel in the good sense. Excellent and helpful staff. Note that car parking can be difficult in old Elvas so take that into account. Once you park, do not move until necessary. Elvas also still has a garrison of Portuguese military. Do visit the Military Museum, it is very interesting and you might see the horses that are still keep there.

The restaurant in the hotel had a limited menu. Bar was fine for drinks and snacks. This is an old building, I would guess late 18th century so the room organisation is unusual. Lovely room, but only a view into what might once have been a internal open patio. Play extra and get a room with an outside view, preferably out over the 17th walls

Friendly and helpful staff Great size room clean and fresh impressive location Bath towels, great quality Good breakfast choice Parking for motorbike within gated courtyard

Lift out of service Menu not available in English or any other language If staying in room above the arches - there is constant noise from cars etc driving through and sounds like thunder Dinner portions seemed on the small size The rice was clumpy and suggest that it was reheated, or left in a rice cooker

Staff was amazing at handling a situation in our room and were quick to transfer us to a better room with no additional costs and offered free breakfast for both days (we had a water puddle in our room). We understood the situation and we were ok with it but the staff went beyond to give us an amazing stay and make up for the incident (which wasn’t their fault at all). The pool was great, the building is very calming and has a very good ambient. The breakfast is impeccable with an amazing patio to enjoy the morning sun. I was impressed with the mattresses and how fresh the sheets and towels were! Probably one of the best places I’ve stayed!

I wish they had more options for dinning as they only serve toasts and sandwiches and they’re a little bit pricey! The reception does offer to make reservations in local restaurants for you to make up for this!

Location was excellent as we travelled to/from Elvas by bus. Hotel was very clean. Staff were very pleasant. Building is full of character & really interesting. Breakfast was excellent: varied, plentiful and very good quality. Overall, our stay was excellent value.

Nothing except that the interior double room took a little getting used to; it seemed dark, air circulation was not good and there was a strong smell of old wood - it was OK for a short stay.

Breakfast in the courtyard was very nice, the pool and area was very well kept, the staff were lovely and the hotel was in a fairly good state.

We live in Portugal and know that wasps are an everyday part of life but we feel that they could have been better controlled in the courtyard. Our bathroom tiling was extremely poorly finished with tiles being uneven, grout falling out of them and watter leaking through the gaps onto the plasterboard wall behind them.

Amazing place. Beautiful garden. Very good breakfast. Good to relax.

The ladies at the reception were unfriendly. It wouldn't hurt them to smile more often. They even denied my request for staying at the pool on the last day. I had to leave in the warmest hour of the day because of that. No hotel staff ever denied me that kind of request! I was totally surprised and did not appreciate that lack of sympathy and kindness at all. All other staff was very friendly and attentive, namely the ladies at breakfast, the cleaning ladies, and the gentleman at the reception.

nice breakfast with several choices of breads, fruits, cheese, meats, yougurt, fresh juices, eggs. Located in a place within the city walls making it reasonably easy to walk everywhere around the churches, castle, mercado etc. A short drive to the forts and a minute drive to the aqueduct. Only an hour to Merida Spain with it's roman ruins to explore. great price, loved the old furniture, the patio for eating breakfast was awesome too. so beautiful.

I had minor dust allergies in the room. The room did look very clean but probably just time to do a good once over cleaning the draperies etc. Internet sign was moderate to great for my work. Would like more plug ins to charge up phones, work equipment.

On arrival on our motorbikes we were hot and tired it was a very hot day. The reception staff were super nice and friendly they supplied us with a cool refreshing fruit drink which was really nice. We were told where we could park our motorbikes and they guided us in to the courtyard where our bikes were safe. The courtyard/garden was stunning with orange trees and statues with tables and chairs to relax and have a drink.
