Hotel Solar de Monfalim is a charming hotel, full of character with lovely seating areas both inside and on the veranda. The staff were really friendly, always helpful and gave us some very good restaurant recommendations. I had asked for our three rooms to be close together, which was not an issue for the hotel. The double rooms were spacious and air conditioning available throughout. The location is perfect. Going uphill we found the Cathedral and Roman temple ruins, going downhill we came to the Chapel of Bones and the public gardens. It was so hot that this was enough for us to seek out.

We paid €5 for a fairly standard buffet breakfast per person, more of an observation rather than anything else. Coffee wasn't the best. Something completely different to be aware of when visiting Évora is that the roads are narrow!!! We got through it without scratching the car, but it can get very tight at places. Take out full insurance on your rental car.

Excellent location in centre of old Town Evora. We'll kept historic building. Helpful and friendly staff. Authentic austere guest room.

historic building and furnishings

it’s location

it needs a bit of work, especially the bathroom.

lovely old building and comfortable stay

Location is close to everything, the room was very big and light, the breakfast simple but good.

Location, staff

Hotel is located in an old, charming and elegant building fairly close to city centre.

The room was large but poorly furnished with no chair in room, limited facilities to hang up clothes and no stopper in wash hand basin. The hotel needs serious investment in its facilities.

The hotel was really lovely. It is a beautifully renovated 16th century house and has a real charm. The cosy lounge area with the fireplace was particularly nice each night and the staff were friendly and welcoming.

The hotel: It's a genuinely historical inn with an older-style construction that adds to the authenticity and charm. The veranda with tables is incredibly romantic and perfect for sunsets. Children will appreciate all the nooks and crannies at the hotel. Room: The rooms keep the historical style but with modern features that will make your experience a good one. Beds are comfy and warm. There are enough blinders to leave the room totally dark. Incredibly silent. The bathroom looks old but the plumbing is great, the water is warm and the pressure is just right. There's also a tv and good wifi. The highlight goes to the A/C which helps to set a good room temperature (especially during those scorching hot summer afternoons). It has everything you need but, of course, if you don't like a room with old-style furniture, then this isn't a good option. Noise: Very silent at night (weekend) Breakfast: Very simple continental with great coffee and there was a surprise option (Wine Poached Pears) on one day. Looks humble but it's perfect to kickstart the day with enough space in your belly to dine at a restaurant nearby any Alentejo-style dish. Cleanliness: Great, nothing to point out which means they are doing a good job. Location: Fantastic, right in the middle of Évora, close to everything especially the Roman temple. If your intention is sightseeing, this is a great option. There are a lot of restaurants nearby, just remember to check their open/closing hours. Getting there: 20/30 minute walking distance from the bus station. You can go there by car BUT BE AWARE there's no parking at the hotel so you'll have to park in the narrow streets which might be paid (at least during weekdays). Disabled people: People with mobility issues might experience difficulties to reach the inn due to Évora's cobblestone streets and the inn's old style with doorsteps.

perhaps only the breakfast could have been more varied

weather - surprisingly it rained one day :-)

Character of hotel, bed made every day. Simple furnishing, bidet very relaxing

Nothing

during the night a bar next store kept us awake for 2 hours

the property was nice and clean. although in the middle of the city, it way very quiet and secure. walking distance to all sites and restaurants. The breakfast was very complete.

The hotel has no parking. If traveling by auto, you must find a place on the narrow street and continue to purchase parking meter tickets. there are only a few spaces in front of the hotel and they require parking meter tickets as well.

Very clean, staff very nice and central location

Breakfast poor

Location is great. The bathroom is nicely updated. If you love history, you will love this hotel. Great for the price!

It was close to the old town

It is a no frills hotel. The only grill you get is that the towels like a lova

The breakfast was ok, not much of a selection. You can walk to restaurants, shops, churches, etc. since it is centrally located.

The rooms need updating, the shower leaked all over the floor and there is a disco next door so it is very noisy until six in the morning.

The room was very peaceful . Location was great AFTER I found I could us a back entrance as I could not manage the stairs. Balcony great. Main square very close.

No Handrails on the stairs.
