Évora Olive Hotel, Évora

4.1 (22 reviews) · Comfort
Historic building turned modern hotel with olive oil-inspired amenities, indoor and outdoor pools, and spa treatments

Overview

Évora Olive Hotel is a modern oasis that occupies the iconic and historic Eborim Shopping Center within the city walls of Évora. The hotel's theme of olive oil is interwoven throughout, from the olive oil on demand to the invigorating massages with olive oil and lavender. Its prime location is within a short walk of the Jardim Publico, Igreja de Sao Francisco, and Praca do Giraldo. You'll also be just a short distance from the University of Évora, making it an ideal base.

The rooms at Évora Olive Hotel are all individually decorated and offer a few different layouts. While some previous kimkim travelers have noted that the rooms could be a bit more spacious, others have appreciated the modern design and attention to detail. Each room includes a sleek bathroom, comfortable bed, and work desk. Some upgraded units add additional amenities, like a private balcony.

Évora Olive Hotel also offers a few amenities that elevate your stay. You can enjoy a swim in the indoor or outdoor pools or keep up your workout routine in the fitness center. The hotel also offers massage and facial treatments for a little pampering during your stay. When it's time for a break, the Pátio das Oliveiras, or Olive Tree Patio, is a tranquil outdoor space perfect for relaxation. The hotel offers a well-regarded restaurant that serves dishes inspired by the Alentejo culture and landscape.

The hotel is in a good location and has a large underground parking garage. The staff were impersonal and distant. We arrived during a torrential downpour. No one helped us unload our luggage or told us that we can unload in the underground garage. They just watched us get soaked. We arrived at 2pm but were not given a room until the checkin time at 3pm even though we were soaked to the bone.

The hotel is in a good location and has a large underground parking garage. The staff were impersonal and distant. We arrived during a torrential downpour. No one helped us unload our luggage or told us that we can unload in the underground garage. They just watched us get soaked. We arrived at 2pm but were not given a room until the checkin time at 3pm even though we were soaked to the bone.

The rooms were bare of necessities - no conditioner or body lotion, lumpy mattress and flat-as-pancakes pillows. Plastic cups for drinking. Two old fraying towels. The floors are polished concrete, so we asked for slippers and were told that we'd have to buy them.

Not sure how this is a 4-star hotel....

Comfy and spacious rooms. Walking distance from must see attractions of Evora. There is a pool (ice cold so beware!) and free parking in the underground section which is very convenient. Staff was very nice and accommodating. Read more
