Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The hotel is beautiful and historic. It has some lovely public spaces if you could enjoy them without crowds from tour buses. This was a minus from the check-in experience to mealtime to noise and crowds. We were upgraded to our room, and it was a VERY LONG walk. The room was a suite and there were attempts to make it nice but it missed in several ways. The whirlpool tub area was difficult to get into and use comfortably. The TV at the foot of the bed couldn't be used - there was 1 remote - and it controlled the TV in the sitting area. We had to sit uncomfortably in chairs to watch TV vs. laying in bed as desired. I asked for some ice for an injury and was charged 7 euros....crazy. Meal times were very busy and dinner at Divinus very disappointing. Unfriendly service which was slow and rude. Food was lukewarm and poorly presented (4 large piles of peas on pea puree looked like a child did it). This was not the top dining experience advertised. Additionally, the hotel changed our reservation without any notice - leaving us to scramble for dinner on a Sunday night when many places are closed. Evora is a cool city and the historic district very enjoyable. I'd advise staying somewhere else with more comforts, updates, better food - and NO TOUR BUSES.

Beautiful place, excellent staff, a truly memorable stay. Only downside was that one restaurant was closed and the other booked up very early. Food is available in the bar but it is very noisy there. Room service was available, so not a big issue.

Bad customer service

My flight was cancelled due to ongoing strikes at the Paris airport, which prevented me from checking in. Despite the situation being completely out of my control, they refused to issue a refund. If there's any chance your travel plans could be disrupted by unforeseen events, I wouldn’t recommend booking here.
