This is a lovely guest house in a perfect location to explore Evora. The staff was extremely friendly, and the on-site parking was a great bonus. Some reviewers note the shared bathrooms, but the en suite rooms, if available, are still a good deal. Highly recommended. More

The hotel is nicely located in the Evora historical center and has free private parking. The building is charming, being an ancient typical house of the alentejo which has been renovated. The welcome is warm and smiling. We had a double room with private bathroom. The room was quite big but I don't like bedrooms with "azulejos" (wich seem to... More

We loved the location of the historic and charming hotel. The location in the middle of the medieval town was within walking distance of all historic sites in the city and a short taxi ride from the bus station. We really enjoyed the experience of staying in the heart of an medieval town on a narrow cobblestone street in a... More

We used this charming hotel for an overnight stay whilst travelling through Portugal. It is in an excellent location close to the Cathedral and the Temple of Diana. It is a perfect base for seeing the highlights of Evora on foot. (Cobbled streets - flat shoes required) Lots of restaurants in the old town area. It is a very old... More

I liked our stay here very much. An old Duke's house from a long time ago that retains that charm. There is even a Roman column at reception that holds the ceiling up. We had a clean, comfortable, quiet room. Breakfast was simple but very enjoyable on the outdoor terrace with fresh rolls, ham, cheese etc. Family owned and they... More

A gorgeous place, and sensitively updated to be comfortable but still historically significant. Reasonable price, pretty room, good location, extremely helpful staff...what more could you want? The breakfasts, served buffet-style in one of the renovated former public rooms of the villa, were generous and tasty. It was too cold when we were there for the outside patio, but that looked...

I would like to have given this guest house a better review. It is a sixteenth century house in the old town in Evora, beautiful, clean, rich in character and close to all the sights of the city. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. We had a budget room, quite large, with a washbasin and a (basic) shower. The... More

For the price, the location, the friendliness/helpfulness of the (very well English-speaking) staff, and the spectacular lounge, you can't beat the Policarpo. They even have a parking lot, although sometimes it's a bit of a nail-biter getting in or out of it. Breakfasts were adequate (Portuguese coffee isn't good anywhere, although the bread is always excellent). The only caveat is... More
