Hotels With Swimming Pools in Portalegre District, Portugal

Hotel moderno e bem localizado no centro de Portalegre, sendo fácil o passeio pela cidade apenas a pé. Quarto moderno, com muita luz e muito espaço. O pequeno-almoço é variado, mas gostaria de ver um pouco mais de cuidado com alguns detalhes, por exemplo, os sumos estavam pouco frescos e alguns alimentos um pouco secos, julgo eu devido ao calor… o colchão é quente e as almofadas são muito baixas e muito quentes também.

The beauty at the front desk was very good at English and introduced the history of the hotel very warmly. The hotel is transformed from an ancient building in the 17th century. The room is very spacious, that is, there are too few sockets. You have to charge the plug and you can unplug the TV. The sound insulation is not very good, and the sound of passing cars outside can be heard.

Simply amazing. A lovely restauration of an old building that came out to be a beautiful hotel. The only problem that they were not allowed to add an elevator - but the staff is helping and bringing the luggage up and down. We had a gourmet dinner there and a lovely and informative service from Joao the owner and the rest of the staff. Highly recommended.

For a 5* hotel, it needs improvement. It is not enough to have the Name and the classification. Small details that make all the difference. I don't know if the time is bad, but covid and crisis can't be an excuse for everything. And considering the price should have better service! Besides that there were few guests, so the dedication could be different. Good rooms, although somewhat damaged, double bed with 2 single mattresses, which could be more secure and adherent, in addition to the mattress protection, not comfortable, we know that there are more comfortable protections. Great light insulation, sound not really. Great shower! Nespresso machine in the room. PA very good, but for a 5* it should be great, eg boiled eggs and cheeses, already dried out. Platters to be replaced, it was always necessary to notify the employees. Nice SPA area, but the water was cold, and you need to make a reservation, but it was still full. It is not clear then why schedule an appointment. Access to the gym and the indoor pool, the water was also cold outside the hotel. Which with the cold is not pleasant at all. Staff friendliness in general. It is a good hotel to relax, due to its surroundings and the geographical area, which is quiet, with good access.

«Monte da Esperanca» is een kleinschalig hotel aan de rand van het dorpje Esperança, vlakbij de Portugees-Spaanse grens. Wij verbleven hier 4 nachten in april tijdens een rondreis door centraal Portugal. Het hotel is super rustig gelegen. Wij hadden een smaakvolle twin kamer met comfortabele bedden, een bureau, een grote kledingkast, een kleine koelkast en een ruime badkamer met een ligbad en een buitendouche. Van het mooie zwembad hebben wij zo vroeg in het voorjaar geen gebruik gemaakt. Maar onze buurmannen hadden wel veel lol tijdens het zwemmen in het koude water. Het ontbijt was beperkt, aangezien dit ook een heel klein hotelletje is, maar de producten waren van een uitstekende kwaliteit. Een betere vers geperste jus d'orange heb ik misschien niet eerder in mijn leven gehad. Maar ook de ham en kaas waren uitstekend en de cake was volgens mij zelf gebakken. Verder kregen wij elke ochtend roerei en gebakken bacon, croissants en brood, yoghurt en vers fruit. De dames in de bediening waren uiterst vriendelijk en zorgzaam. Vanuit dit hotel hebben wij overdag mooie uitstapjes met de auto gemaakt: in het zuiden bezochten wij «Elvas» en «Vila Viçosa» en in het noorden het toeristische vestingplaatsje «Marvão» en het zeer gezellige stadje «Castelo de Vide», allebei gelegen in het uitgestrekte «Parque Natural da Serra de São Mamede» waar ook Esperança deel van uitmaakt. De laatste dag hebben wij een wandeling gemaakt vanuit het hotel. In het dorp Esperança vind je bij het postkantoor een grote kaart met de rondwandeling «PR1 ARR» van 15 km in 5:30 uur. Het is een schitterende wandeling die je door dit prachtige landschap leidt met talloze kurkeiken, olijfbomen, heuvels, in de lente langs bloemenweiden, schapenkudden en ook gieren die in de lucht hun rondjes draaien. De bewegwijzering is uitstekend. Alleen één keer, in het gehucht «Marco», ontbreekt een wegwijzer. Hier moet je vóór het allereerste huis rechts afslaan. Verder kom je tijdens de wandeling bij de Spaanse grens en ook bij bijzondere rotstekeningen, de «Pinturas Rupestres». Aan het einde van de wandeling kun je in het dorpje Esperança nog een drankje nemen op één van de terrassen van de café's. In het leuke stadje «Arronches», zo'n 10 km ten zuidwesten van Esperança, vind je verschillende goede en sympathieke en enkele uitstekende restaurants. Daarnaast vind je in Arronches ook café's, bars, kleine supermarkten, winkels, een apotheek en nog meer. Wij hebben genoten van ons verblijf in «Monte da Esperanca». Hopelijk komen wij nog een keer terug, ook vanwege de prachtige omgeving. En een hele lieve, grote hond hebben zij ook bij het hotel.

Starting with the reception team, which makes our arrival/check-in simple and pleasant, very comfortable facilities, super pleasant and clean room, the imperfect bathroom and view of the Elvas TOP aqueduct. The buffet breakfast, very diversified and with excellent products, the room team that makes everything to make us feel like at home and is always available to meet our requests is 5 stars. The swimming pool of the best ... The top location, 3 min. walk from the center of Elvas, 10 min from Badajoz and very close to other imperviable points to visit.

We had booked a two-day stay in “Alter do Chão” at the hotel “Vila Galé de Alter do Chão and stayed in the Solar of the hotel. Both the main building and the Solar have an outdoor swimming pool with plenty of sun loungers. The room was very clean and spacious, the beds were comfortable, and we were not bothered by noise from the people at the pool. The breakfast was buffet style and there was more than enough choice, something for everyone. We had booked half board and in the evening this was also in buffet form, for people who want it differently, they can also eat á la carte, which of course can take a little longer. The reception is a bit on the slow side, but all in all not too bad, the staff is super friendly, the only downside is the road from the reception to the Solar, which has no pavement and is very uneven. Result with the high temperature, a lot of dust is stirred up, which can be a problem if you have to walk to the restaurant, and certainly when it rains (5 minutes on foot), there is also more than enough parking space at the solar. This hotel is certainly worth recommending, it has horses and a allot of birds of prey with museum.

Hotel with modern lines, friendly and comfortable staff, spacious room with a beautiful view of the pool. A breakfast within the expected but the surprise was kept for the excellent quality of the Chaparro restaurant, which made us broadly happy with the decision made to book with half-pense. Only a reserve for the necessary maintenance, especially on the ceiling of the indoor pool and some details of the room, but that do not change our will to return.

This was our second visit to this hotel and it really is a lovely place. The building is a converted convent and the convention has been beautifully done. Breakfast is excellent with plenty of choice in a buffet style. The staff are friendly and attentive, especially the breakfast and Bar staff. We first visited not long after the hotel had opened and it was noticeably busier on this visit. Elvas is a lovely place to wander round. The fortifications, castle, small ally ways, churches, gardens & museums are a joy to explore. It also has some great quality restaurants. Would highly recommend Adega Regional, Recanto de São Paulo & especially Acontece. There is plenty of free parking around the hotel if you are traveling by car and it makes a great base for exploring the area, even nipping over the border into Spain. Look forward to returning again.

The rooms are very comfortable with good beds and spacious. There is a very quiet place to find rest. There is a very nice space but it's only a pity the pool is so dirty and degraded, they told us they were waiting for the high season(?). The sympathy of the girls of the reception was what we most enjoyed.
