"The overall experience at the Hotel Convento de São Paulo was good but we were really disappointed and almost ready to cancel our entire stay from the first room they gave us. We booked the Suite, Annex Building (Fonte (outside the Main Building)) and what we got was nothing like the vaulted ceiling room we chose when booking. The room 314 we got should be condemned for having a serious mold problem and was extremely uncomfortable to breath in regardless of trying to air the space out with the windows open. The sheets literally felt damp to the touch as if they either hadn't been dried properly or the dampness of the space was affecting them. The bed was not the double/queen bed shown in the pictures either. We were shocked that this was what we were paying $150 usd a night for in the off season. If we hadn't gotten there so last the first night from our long drive to the hotel we would've gone to the front desk right away and had the room either changed to our great inconvenience after un-packing. The next morning we brought this to the attention to the staff member at the front desk who then switched us to the correct room that we booked and from there on out we were extremely happy. The claim made by staff is that there are many rooms (11 different options). There is only 1-2 pictures of the rooms yet nearly 100 of the property grounds... Very misleading and should be improved. Again, we were happy with our correct room but what a hassle it was at the start. "

"What a little gem. In the middle of Monsaraz. Easy checkin would definitely stay again."

"Peaceful "

"Just as you come onto the property, just outside the reception is a cobble stone path, where sets of chairs and tables are set up to watch the sunset and drink the wines produced at the nearby vineyard. That was my absolute favorite place to sit as we were celebrating my partner's birthday. Our friends from New York were vegetarians and found loads of options on the farm to table menu on offer for breakfast and dinner. It rained the last 3 days of our trip, cancelling our hot air balloon ride, but the concierge toggled quickly and offered us an array of options including an olive oil tasting. Our guide was a fount of knowledge. Thank you!"

"We stayed in this hotel for one night. It’s right in the heart of the wine region and we visited a vineyard before arriving for the night. Easy to park in the underground car park but there’s also plenty of parking on the street. Super easy check-in and offered drink as we arrived which was nice. The hotel has an indoor pool and some Thermo circuit spas which were great to relax in the afternoon and morning. Lovely breakfast with a good choice, including eggs Benedict. The bedroom was nicely decorated with a decent king-size bed that was very comfortable blackout blinds, large pretty windows. We didn’t have dinner in the hotel we opted to walk out to one of the local restaurants. There was plenty of choice."

"The building of the hotel is very special and unique, we really love it. Staff are very friendly, room is very clean, the breakfast is great!!"

"Overall this was an excellent stay for us. Great jumping off point to explore the Alentejo region. Is as listed, very homey and comfortable. The only issue we had was check in. Once this was resolved, Paola was wonderful."

"Excellent hotel. "

"Great dining and room experience. Creative Portuguese menu. Indoor pool and extra bonus!"
