The hotel has done a wonderful job of respecting the old convent while updating it to modern comforts. It’s the perfect place to evoke the history of Evora while enabling you to relax in a beautiful and peaceful rural setting just minutes from the town. Our room in the convent was spacious, indeed majestic, with a luxurious bed and large bathroom. The grounds are extensive with gardens and a clean and well maintained pool that we enjoyed at the end of our days of sightseeing. But it was the service and friendliness of the staff that made the hotel so great. From the reception clerk who escorted us to our tucked away room to the accommodating pool towel assistant, everyone was so helpful and kind. We particularly enjoyed Daniel, in the ba, who indulged our enthusiasm for indigenous grapes by going over what was in the various wines available by the glass. Madelena on the breakfast buffet staff, was so gracious when we showed up early and then, unlike everyone else, asked to sit outside on the balcony in the cool morning air. Anibal kept us hydrated with the best orange juice I’ve drunk in my life and didn’t bat an eye when we went through two carafes of coffee. The breakfast buffet itself was stellar with offerings to please all ages and palates. The facility had a restaurant and fitness facility that we didn’t use, but they both looked well equipped and, if our snacks in the bar and the breakfast buffet were anything to go by, would be excellent. Truly this hotel is worth a splurge and you will leave with great memories.
Like every other hotel we’ve stayed at in Portugal, there wasn’t an easy way to charge our electronics. Between our phones, watches, and pads, it’s a bit of a circus trying to get everything charged overnight. A power strip or wall fixtures with multiple plugs would be very helpful.

Arquitetura, história, sofisticação e café da manhã
Restaurantes para jantar extremamente abusivos nos valores. E com exigência de reservas sem mesmo estar cheio. De última hora não aceitavam. A cidade não tem muitas opções e isso dificultou um jantar de última hora nosso.

De historische locatie is mooi. De inrichting van het hotel is prachtig. Mooi zwembad met ligweide.
Kamer vond ik erg donker. Restaurant ( Portugese) weinig sfeer. ik had liever het Italiaanse geboekt. Daar kun je lekker op het terras zitten.

Gorgeous property in a fabulous old convent a few miles from the medieval city of Evora. Treat yourself to a relaxing few days at this glorious property. Enjoy the excellent food and wine of the region. Visit the mysterious stone circle at Cromlech Almendras. And don’t forget the fascinating cork “factory” called Circarte about 6 miles from the convent.
9.0
The property, in particular the main building which goes back to the 15th century, is truly stunning. Staying in a convent room, having meals in the old wine cellar, and simply walking through the halls and rooms of this historic building was a splendid experience.
The new wing of the property felt a little sparse and sanitized, but I suppose largely because one can’t help but to compare it to the convent itself.
7.0
The property is beautiful and conveniently located a short drive from the centre of Evora.
This is a five-star property, but I think it is somewhat over-priced. I paid €299 for the room - a very comfortable room, but really no better than those at a number of four star properties I have stayed at for significantly less. Whilst the food in Divinus was very nice and beautifully served it too, I found a little over-priced. €70.00 a head for nice, but by no means exceptional food is a lot - and with only one glass of wine each.
Also, in a restaurant at a five-star property, I would expect a dress code for dinner and not to see a large number of men in shorts as though recently arrived from the swimming pool. I know everything is now far more casual, but a restaurant in a five-star property with no dress code??

The property itself is a sight to behold. I've never seen anything like it before. It's a true gem. Visually, it's awe inspiring. From the built in church, to the vine cellar, and the general property itself, it's spectacular.
The rooms are quite dated and need a refresh. Not terrible by any means but it's time.
9.0
Excellent facility, very big and spacious and luxurious.
Handicapped accessible room needs more grab bars for easier access. The shower room does not have any grab bars and not easily accessible. Additional grab bars in the toilet room would be very helpful.

What’s not to LOVE? …wine tasting (excellent) and tour upon arrival- My husband and I felt so welcome to this beautiful and historic gem. Dinner was elegant and yummy and thoroughly enjoyed the bar and bartender afterwards.
The spa was relaxing and our room was more than comfortable with a great view of the gorgeous grounds. (1,100 yr old olive tree)
Breakfast was expansive and awesome including honey right off the comb.
I could go on and on but will leave a few discoveries for your own stay. ❤️
