Hotel Convento D'Alter

This is such a beautiful building and the room was quite spacious. It even had a 4 poster bed which was very comfortable. We checked in on Valentines day and to our surprise one of the staff delivered champagne and strawberries to our room! There were already complimentary treats in the room, some cookies and chocolates. Nice breakfast selection.

The stuff is amazing a big thanks to Nuno in the reception and José Castelinho in the bar, amazing professional people.

The Convento is a beautiful old building in a lovely, quiet town which we very much liked. It is well positioned for exploring the Eastern area of Portugal. Our room was spacious, overlooked the pool - which we did not use but looked very good, the interior cloister was an attractive space. The hotel does not have its own restaurant but there are a couple within a short walk. We tried both but much preferred O'Acafrao where staff were much friendlier, the food first class, the house wine excellent and the price very reasonable. The hotel has a bar which does provide good, light snacks.

Absolutely lovely and very helpful staff, clean and well decorated rooms. I arrived by motorbike and they offered my a space for it in a locked garage at no extra fee. Good breakfast with some warm foods as well. Location just off the main street of the village with everything within (very short) walking distance. Would stay again! :)

Pool, breakfast, quiet. We would have given the review a 10 but we found the decor and maintenance needed a little attention here and there. Nice restaurants locally and pool table a nice touch.
