This hotel was a historic property dating back to the 14th century. Walking the cloisters and hallways was magical. Don’t miss the museum in the crypt below the hotel. So much history, dating back to the Bronze Age. I have never stayed in such an amazing property. Magnificent!

The Pousada was a very interesting and historical building. We visited the churches near by but one the highlights was the amazing Museum right on sight. The staff recommended some interesting side trips which let us explore the area. Room was very comfortable and buffet breakfast was excellent.

This property exceeded all expectations. Amongst most of Portugal's stays, this one stands out. It's quiet, clean, and just a step above in many many ways. The vibration, or the energy of the space is just peaceful.

Amazing stay - can’t wait to go back!

Amazing stay, we had called ahead to confirm they had a functioning pool and A/C that actually worked, and when we arrived, they had gone to our room ahead of time to turn the A/C on to have it cool when we arrived. The employees were all so friendly, the pool area was fantastic and well kept, the room and views were unreal.

Beautiful building around the old walls. Terrific museum on site which is well worth a visit. Breakfast was very average and staff not very friendly. Ordered a vodka and tonic from the bar to be told they had none. Receptionist was extremely nice which made up somewhat for the rest of the staff.

Beautiful location, fair pricing

3rd visit to this lovely location, with the Hotel perched on the top of a hill overlooking spectacular views of rice fields. This is a very old building with a lovely history which is so evident everywhere on its grounds, in and outside of the building. The rooms are of a good size and the beds are very comfortable. Cleanliness is a priority as is staff friendliness. Overall, the experience is so positive and is a great get away or a stop on your journey through Portugal, at a very fair price.
