    Unique Settings & Great Staff make for a Special Stay

    rating11 Mar 2026

    We recently spent a couple of nights at the Convento seeking out a change of scene and some slightly warmer weather in Winter and had a really great time - the hotel's blend of its old and new parts really makes it a special place to stay.We turned up a little early to this hotel but the reception staff were super friendly, helped us find lunch in the bar which was good and then checked us into our "Design" room in the newer part of the building which we really liked - lots of space in the well appointed room, a balcony to look out over the garden and a decent bathroom.At check-in, we were also invited to a wine-tasting and a tour of the building and both were very good - the building's chapel, restaurant, wine-bar, etc. are amazing and would form a tourist attraction in their own right.We ate in the restaurant for both breakfast and dinner and enjoyed both - the food was good and the service both attentive and relaxed and friendly as it is across the whole hotel - every member of staff was super friendly here, keen to chat and help us to have a good stay.We used the hotel to visit Evora which is well worth a visit and would recommend both Evora and the Convento to anyone looking to make a similar trip. Agência BrandChoice, Proprietário at Convento do Espinheiro, Historic Hotel & Spa, responded to this review Thank you very much for your wonderful and detailed review.We are truly delighted to know that your stay at the Convento do Espinheiro provided the change of scenery and comfort you were seeking.

It is indeed our goal to ensure that every guest feels relaxed and well cared for throughout their stay.Thank you as well for highlighting Évora as a destination—it truly is a remarkable city, and we are glad you had the opportunity to explore it.We sincerely appreciate your recommendation and hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for another memorable stay.Kind regards,The Team at Convento do Espinheiro

    Awesome property, well maintained

    rating16 Dec 2025

    Beautiful hotel, expansive grounds. Atmospheric surroundings, an old convent/monastery converted into a modern hotel with full service. Two restaurants on the premises, besides a bar. Lovely to explore the premises; quiet little cathedral, a royal library, olive and orange trees in the garden. Our room had a balcony overlooking the peaceful gardens, with rows of olive trees. Breakfast was good; eggs made to order, cold cuts, fruit, juices, coffee. It’s situated about 10 minutes by car, from Evora city. Spend the day sightseeing and come back to a very comfortable room. Will definitely spend more days here, next time we visit. Agência BrandChoice, Proprietário at Convento do Espinheiro, Historic Hotel & Spa, responded to this review Dear Guest,Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review of your stay at Convento do Espinheiro.We are delighted to learn that you enjoyed the unique atmosphere of our former convent, the expansive grounds, and the balance between historic character and modern comfort. It is particularly gratifying to know that you took pleasure in exploring the property, from the quiet cathedral and royal library to the gardens with olive and orange trees, as well as the peaceful views from your balcony overlooking the gardens.We are also pleased that our breakfast selection, restaurants, and overall comfort met your expectations, and that our location allowed you to enjoy Évora during the day while returning to a calm and relaxing environment in the evening.Your wish to return and spend more time with us on your next visit is truly the highest compliment we could receive.

    Luxury, History and a Full sized Church

    rating24 Oct 2025

    Here you can experience long ago history, modern rooms and wonderful grounds. AND a full sized church from the original monastery (convento) is inside the hotel! Our room and bathroom were nicely sized with a comfortable bed and a nice view of the gardens. Getting around the different areas of the hotel can involve lengthy, circuitous walks but is probably due to having to build around parts of the old monastery. There is a very good restaurant and a full buffet breakfast. We were with a tour group and our coach took us to Evora. You will need a car/taxi otherwise because the town is too far away and the roads would be dangerous for walking. Agência BrandChoice, Proprietário at Convento do Espinheiro, Historic Hotel & Spa, responded to this review Thank you very much for your kind and detailed review.It is a pleasure to know that the historical atmosphere of the former convent, the church, the gardens and the comfort of the room contributed to a memorable stay. We are also pleased that you enjoyed our restaurant and breakfast.We appreciate the note regarding the layout of the property and access to Évora. As the hotel was built around a 15th-century monastery, some routes inside are indeed longer, and we understand that transport is helpful for visiting the city.We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again.The Team of Convento do Espinheiro
