Off the beaten path, on the far East side of Portugal (nearly on the Spanish border). Friendly and interesting people, and interesting history to explore through castles, forts and a marvelous aqueduct.

Lots to see, so make sure you have comfortable clothing and shoes.
Like most Portugeus towns, it is very hilly with narrow streets and lots of steps.
Architecture is stunning and historic with plenty of stories of old.
More vegetarian/vegan restaurants would be a bonus.
The whole Alentejo region is a must-see when visiting this beautiful country.

Elvas is an historic old city with an amazing Roman aqueduct. The local restaurants were not catering for tourists and hardly anyone spoke English. We ate in the hotel which was good value in a lovely setting. We visited the British cemetery for the soldiers of the Peninsular War. The old town is is all cobblestone alleys and we kept getting lost but that was part of its charm.

This is a cool fort town on the Spanish border worth visiting. Great for practicing my Spanish and Portuguese. The old town is walkable and worth a day. Get a number of a local taxi service to explore the other two forts nearby, pick up groceries etc. Plan ahead of taking a comboio or autoexpresso as it's in a pretty remote location so you can't just catch a train out every 30 minutes like you can in Lisbon.
The region it is in, the Alentejo is also generally quite beautiful and it's worth taking a bus to Estremoz and the Evora if in the area.

A great small restaurant recommended by the Hotel was Mercato, is a perfect place to dine. Excellent service and food cooked to order with a lot of attention to quality and flavours.
The property is immaculate and, on the whole, beautifully maintained. It is the home of Marco and Susanne and could easily feature in a home design magazine. The roof terrace is really comfortable and great to be able to dip in and out of the plunge pool while enjoying and beer or glass of wine and the panoramic view across Portugal and Spain.
Everything in the house is perfectly finished from the upcycled furniture to the beautifully painted walls and ceilings.
The house and its sorroundings are charming. An old house converted into a hotel, the façade is original, decorated inside in accordance with the location and origin. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. If traveling in the summer, the pool is big and surrounded by beautiful trees. The owners were lovely and paid attention to every detail, 100% personalised service. The breakfast was served with good local products. Would definitely stay again.
The public rooms were magnificent...exquisite furnishings and decor...the ambient music, the scent. The garden and pool area was very serene and hard to believe you are in the center area or Elvas...easy access to the outside roads...staff was incredibly helpful and gracious. Pedro the concierge helped us with all our needs and Candida made us the perfect breakfast every day. We cannot wait to return!!!
The owner was extremely helpful in recommending and making reservations at the finest restaurant in town. Their assistance significantly enhanced our overall experience during our stay in Elvas. The breakfast provided was truly exceptional. Additionally, the rooftop pool was a highlight - a perfect place to unwind, whether you're enjoying a book in the pool or taking in the breathtaking views of Elvas.
Lovely place, breakfast is amazing fresh orange juice, croissants, fruit.. all lovingly prepared. We sat on the terrace with a nice view to the countryside. Dog friendly - bring along your pet :-) If you are tired from your journey you can ask what is on for dinner and sample some fine local cooking right there... we had stewed beef one night and fish the next, highly recommended, thanks very much!
Hello. My friend and I were in Portugal at the Elvas The Queen Residence hotel. We stayed there for 8 days. There we met the hotel employee Ricardo, who took the stress out of us after Spain, where no one speaks English. Ricardo advised us all the best and we want to wish you all the best. +351961939465. We wish you success. We respectfully share our excitement about Elvas.
Lovely location. Gorgeous house. Super staff. Nice breakfast. Beds sweet, but mattresses not good. Also, someone else’s air conditioner or other machine came on periodically throughout the night. The machine was on the terrace below our window. Periods of peace then periods of noise. A bit annoying. So not a good night. Otherwise, it was a super place to stay.
We regularly stay at this hotel. It is well run, has good staff and is well placed for the centre of the city which is a 10 minutes walk across the Roman Bridge. Also private underground parking which many hotels in the city lack.
Good value.
Lovely place in the center of Elvas. Very welcoming and clean. Had a complementary small snack and coffee and additionally, there was a kitchenette guests could use. It seemed also quite recently renovated. All in all, a very comfortable stay.
Old world charm hotel which was originally a pousada in Elvas. Very calm atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff! Very good breakfast served because of current situation. Strict hygiene procedures.
A very green hotel. Solar powered heating and much of the electricity, too.
Very friendly hotel owners, great breakfast, absolutely gorgeous jogging around the house and neighboring fields.
I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. it is right in the centre of Elvas and is itself a historic building. The staff was very friendly. It was very relaxing to stay there. We loved it.
Great hotel to stay in, spacious clean and new rooms. Spa relaxing facilities that make you feel good. Good food (breakfast and dinner) and live music in the bar (twice a week)
We loved the location, with swimming pools and wildlife nearby (a pig, sheep, dogs and a pony) but the terrible experience we've had with the staff overshadowed everything
The location of the old (but recovered) building in the small town of Elvas is excellent.
The service and rhe staff were impecable - thanks for all the kind support.
Hotel location was very good. The pool area was nice and relaxing. Beds were comfortable. Bathroom good. The hotel was interesting having originally been a convent.
