Gem of a hotel in otherwise bleak town of Beja.

Business two day stop in Beja, previously stayed on edge of town but will opt for this hotel as right in centre. Great breakfast, lots of character( converted convent type building) friendly staff and acccomodating. Lovely pool area and gardens.

A wonderful place to stay in the heart of Beja

This converted convent is a wonderplace to stay, and right in the heart of Beja. The room was very quiet; the breakfast was wonderful. Our only complaints are that the bed is extremely hard, and the room smells like an old hospital room.

Good spot to slow down and relax

Interesting converted convent. Hotel was very quiet and so was the town of Beja. Not much to do the area. The bed was very hard but overall it was a lovely stay with a great breakfast included.

Historic location with luxury feel

Good news: Beautifully historic location with gorgeous architecture and provenance. Good location locally. Lovely spacious room, very comfortable and classic in design. Watchouts: No USB sockets, bring a plug. Issues with dinner service - 1 hour wait after ordering and only 8 guests in the restaurant, food good though Hotels Reward Tiers ignored (free wine for us not acknowledged by the hotel although later removed from our dinner bill). Gardens are very basic in maintenance that might bother some. Loungers limited in numbers around the unheated pool. Bathroom a little dated but not tired just old plumbing. Would revisit though.

Fabulous old historic building. The staff were very friendly. Restaurant had limited menu and food was ok nothing to rave about. As a Gold VIP member I was not given the bottle of wine as a perk and I had to ask for it. Also there was no mention of an upgrade. This part of the service was disappointing.
