This hotel is stunning! Everything about it is pure luxury. Decked out in marble, the rooms and facilities are incredible. The owner owns a marble quarry, so the design of the hotel is fully fitted out in marble. It is rare and world class. The daily breakfast was impeccable and the servers were so kind and spoke in French, English and Portuguese. The staff went over and above and we booked in a wine tasting with the chef of the restaurant and it was amazing!!

We loved the rural location and our kind host. Located in the the Alentejo region, it is surrounded by green rolling hills and beautiful views of the countryside. We had a wonderful breakfast provided by our host.

The property was amazing, so clean and refreshing from the first step through the door. It feels more like a health retreat than a hotel. Our receptionist/cleaner/assistant went above and beyond in all aspects, she’s a true credit to the place and we couldn’t thank her enough.

Very interesting village, very important to get to know the history of Portugal. The Palace and the Santuário are a must and Taberna dos Conjurados is an excellent small restaurant ( reservationa are absolutely necessary)

Nice little Alentejo town.
Nice little Alentejo town.
Very beautiful to walk around with several historic locations for sight seeing. Paço Ducal and the Castle are the best
Plenty of quality offers to eat, like Craft BBS
Several other places of interest close by, all of which you can visit with the kids
This highly recommended property, is a family country home owned by a truly very lovely couple Maria Joao and Pedro. Surrounded by lovely countryside there are chickens, sheep, a beautiful Alentejo Rafeiro dog Oscar, a tiny dog CeCe. This peaceful property is just 3kms from the small, pretty town of Vila Viçosa. Guests have a large well appointed suite that opens up onto a terrace and a swimming pool. Maria Joao prepares a really superb breakfast. We spent four nights and wish we had stayed a little longer. Next time!
The host was very inviting and shared the history of the house. It is an outstanding property with a beautiful private garden and swimming pool. The room was large and comfortable. There is local marble used throughout in beautiful colors. The house is beautifully decorated with seating areas and lounges. Easy parking in front of property. Good breakfast included. I highly recommend staying here when visiting Vila Vícosa.
Charming hotel, great location, fantastic staff, excellent breakfast, spotless! Ideal location for visiting Vila Viçosa, Elvas, Evora and Badajoz. I recommend all future guests to take the time to meet and chat with Mrs. Manuela, co-owner of the hotel. A lady of enormous culture and personal knowledge of local and regional history. Friendly and pleasant, Dona Manuela is one more reason to stay at Hotel Colegio Velho!
Very big and beautifully decorated historic hotel. The staff is nice and helpful, breakfast has a lot of options and the hotel is right next to the royal palace and the castle. 3 restaurants around the corner. Hard mattresses, perfect for me. The hotel has many leisure rooms and a beautiful patio.
Great location (in the centre of Vila Viçosa, right next to Palácio Ducal), comfy bedroom, tasty and plentiful breakfast with lots of homemade and locally produced products, pet friendly, amazing space for relaxing and plenty of activities for families. Wish we could have spent more days there!
The breakfast was outstanding and vibe around the pool was very nice. Dinner was also excellent - we had planned to eat a different restaurant on our second night, but we decided to eat at the hotel again because it was so delicious. The staff were also very nice and helpful!
Comfortable and very large room with private terrace. Pet-friendly hotel, and our dog was made very welcome. The hotel kindly arranged for us to have breakfast outside so our dog could be with us. Great location in the center of Vila Vicosa. Easy walking to good restaurants.
The hotel building was fabulous, many interesting historical features, really good location, the town has lots to see. Breakfast was extremely good, with lots of choice, hot and cold buffet.
Bedroom was good, lots of space and storage.
This historical convent was turned into a hotel in the 1990's. The building, with its architecture, murals and courtyards, is charming. However the hotel needs to be updated... new mattresses and modernized bathrooms would be a plus.
Dona Manuela was very friendly. The hotel is magnificent. Very good quality/price. The surrounding of the hotel is also very nice. The inside garden with the swimming pool and all the flowers and fragrances was superb.
The hotel was in a great location.
The front desk was great.
If you need good internet this can be a problem.
They gave me an extender which worked well.
Highly recommend this property.
The hotel looks small but in fact is one of the bigger during our trip. Personel is friendly and helpful. The swimming pool inside the hotel is nice atraction. Very good brekafast.
The hotel is truly classic. Full marble bathroom and large size rooms. Walking distance to restaurants and grocery stores. Very good breakfast. First class staff.
Huge space, well taken care of, clean, comfortable. You sit by the window, and the castle of Vila Viçosa is right there across the street. Will return for sure.
