Casa do Governador is a centennial house with around 28 hectares in a ecological reserve area just 3 Km from the centre of Evora. We stayed in the main house although there is a villa also available on the east side of the property. Our room was spacious, light and airy. The bathroom was excellent with a spacious shower. There are 2 lovely swimming pools set in a grassy area on one side of the vineyard with plenty of sun beds available. Breakfast is excellent with fresh fruit and fresh fruit juice served large communal table. Eggs are offered and cooked to order. We ate dinner on a first night which was beautifully cooked and served. Staff are friendly, professional and helpful.

Amazing old convent turned hotel. Beautiful architecture and interesting decor. Great boutique with handicrafts and porcelain. The hotel accepts pets - still rather unusual in Portugal. Unfortunately, a bit understaffed which affects level of service. Anyway good option to explore Évora.

This hotel is amazing. From the check in til we departed, this place is all about service. The staff is fantastic, they even parked our car for us. The rooms are huge, and are very well equipped. Our room had a shower and a bathtub , the air conditioning was super nice since it was quite warm during our stay. The breakfast was delicious with lots of choices , something for everyone. The hotel is a very short walk to all the sites and restaurants. I only wish we had stayed longer.

Full of charm and peacefulness, we loved this hotel! The ADC is located just inside the walls, making it easy to access by car and then easy to walk into the town. Our rooms were comfortable and well-appointed. We enjoyed a quiet drink in the courtyard, which was so chilled out and relaxing. ADC was helpful in advance of our arrival at getting us a dinner reservation and provided prompt and thoughtful service throughout. Breakfast was beautifully arranged and with a good number of options. We thoroughly enjoyed the fantastic town that is Evora, and the ADC was an ideal place to stay there.

Service: Front desk staff was extremely friendly and cheerful. Same goes to the food & beverage guest facing staff. We were treated well throughout the hotel with no gaps in service or attention. Breakfast selection was fresh and having the opportunity to try traditional “convent cakes” is a real treat. The lobby bar is very quiet but it’s a good place to come for an afternoon snack (sandwiches, toast with butter, potato chips/crisps). Facilities: Wanted to use the outdoor pool but the weather was too cold to go swimming. No fault of the hotel. - does not have an elevator, not good for elderly guests. - parking is limited, call in advance to get a spot or drive around the city to find an empty spot like we did. - driving to the hotel is tricky as the location is in the historic city center with very steel and narrow roads. - free WiFi and good connectivity throughout. Hygeine (overall): Although the convent is centuries old we find the common areas very clean and full of sunlight. Only area we find to be dark are the interior corridors towards to swimming pool and another set of hotel rooms. Antique furniture and the display of azuleju and tapestries were very well done and well preserved. Rooms: We stayed on the 2nd floor and had a nice view to the Cathedral. The rooms were clean and very basic. Loved the hotel using local Portuguese brand Castelbel for shampoo/soap and the body lotion. - does not have hot water kettle (some hotels you need to call to have it delivered to the room, we did not do that this time) - acoustics are quite powerful especially the noise from the corridor to the room. - need to confirm a breakfast time slot the evening before. All in all, our stay was pleasant and I had one of the best sleeps. It was so close to major landmarks and will certainly come back to stay.
