Fodor's Expert Review Hotel São João de Deus

Largo S. João Deus 1, Elvas, Portalegre, 7350-000, Portugal Fodor's Choice

Housed in a gleaming white 17th-century convent just inside the city walls, this is Elvas's most luxurious hotel. Each room is unique, and some have medieval wood screens, converted fireplaces, and headboards made of blue-and-white azulejos. Two pools and a terrace are tucked behind the city ramparts.

PROS

  • historic building with a bell tower
  • flower-filled outdoor terrace
  • free Wi-Fi and other amenities

CONS

  • some rooms are a bit small
  • bar closes on the early side
  • some dated decor
