Pauvre
Vieil hôtel désuet aux immenses couloirs déserts qui fait penser au Overlook Hotel du film The Shinning... Chambre peu confortable : aucune prise électrique autour du lit, il a fallu débrancher le téléviseur au milieu de la chambre pour recharger nos cellulaires. Pas de savon, de shampoing, de papiers mouchoirs. Éclairage médiocre. Pas de consigne pour les bagages, on vous propose de les laisser à côté de la porte d'entrée... Service nonchalant.

Wonderful place - was an old convent then a military hospital. The building was constructed in the 1600's so it just radiates with character. We loved the worn marble stairs and the winding passage ways. It also has sitting areas throughout the hotel where you can sit and read or gather to talk or check emails. The staff is also extremely friendly and helpful. We highly recommend this place.

What a gorgeous hotel!!! It is in a several hundred years old monastery and there are signs of old wood and marble from the days of old. Each room held a monk and the ceilings are vaulted and wooden. So beautiful. Request room 301, open the windows and look straight down for a nice surprise!!!! This property was a five minute walk from all kinds of restaurants and shopping. Eat at Restaurante Luís Cobra one block away. You wont regret it!!

Perfect location to the center of town and easy to get to. Interesting history of the building. We were upgraded to a huge room with lots of antique furniture but still a bit sparse. Staff was excellent particularly Daniela. Bar was closed but breakfast was good. The pool was a nice way to spend a hot afternoon after visiting the city.

We really enjoyed our stay.The staff were kind and attentive. The room was comfortable and spacious. The breakfast had a good choice that suited us well seeing that my wife is vegan they provided a plant based milk, fresh fruit and fresh fruit juices. We will return.
