The hotel is completely new, modern. The breakfast is exceptional - I like the most that there is also cooked food available (boiled potatoes, sweet potatoes, zucchini, beans, mushrooms), several types of cereal, several types of fruit, several types eggs, fresh baguette, good coffee, tea, oat milk, cake, desserts, yogurts and much much more. Room is comfortable, tastefully furnished, the bathroom as well, the bed very comfortable, the room has space for luggage and a balcony. We got water in room when we came. There is a free parking place in front of the hotel. The hotel breakfast room is very beautiful and it has a sew view. The hotel has a very nice swimming pool and saunas (Turkish and Finnish) and jacuzzi. The hotel is located in a quiet area. My stay here was very pleasant and I would definitely come back if I had the chance. Everything about the hotel is superb and beyond reproach.

From the moment I arrived at Espinheiro, I knew I was in for something special. Check-in was smooth and welcoming - room was spacious with a nice garden view. The amenities were exceptional and breakfast buffet was another highlight, featuring everything from fresh tropical fruits and made-to-order omelets to locally baked pastries and fresh-pressed juices. What truly set this hotel apart, though, was the service. Every staff member, from the concierge to the housekeeping team, went above and beyond. It is a place I’ll return to without hesitation and recommend to anyone seeking a memorable stay.

We have just had the most wonderful, relaxing holiday at Hotel Horta da Moura. The hotel is lovely and welcoming, set in acres of ancient olive and citrus trees within a beautiful landscape. Flavia and all the staff were so helpful and friendly and went out of their way to make our holiday special. Our room was extremely spacious, clean and well equipped. The breakfast was excellent, I was especially grateful for having a gluten-free treat presented every morning! Swimming in the infinity pool bathed in the scents of citrus and cyprus will sustain me through the winter! There is much to see and do, with plenty of good restaurants a short drive away. We fell in love with the region of Alentejo and I am sure we will return soon to Horta da Moura. Thank you!

FAQs about hotels in Alentejo

Castles, Cliffs and Countryside

Sleepy Alentejo is an agricultural region of rolling hills and cork plantations, south of the Tagus River. Many of the Booking.com accommodation options are Alentejo guest houses featuring traditional wooden beds with painted headboards.

The main city is historic Évora with its medieval cathedral, partly intact walls and remains of a Roman temple. There are also Roman remnants in Beja, with its hilltop castle and whitewashed houses, and Serpa, whose aqueduct forms part of the city walls.

Mértola is nestled in the Guadiana Valley Natural Park, while Portalegre is the gateway to the Serra de São Mamede Natural Park. Also here are beautiful Marvão, set on a steep escarpment and guarded by a castle, and Castelo de Vide whose castle is on a less-pronounced hill.

The South-West Alentejo and Vicentine Natural Park is on Portugal’s west coast and many Alentejo beach hotels are found in Vila Nova de Milfontes and nearby  Zambujeira do Mar, on a clifftop reminiscent of the Algarve.

By the Spain border, hilltop Monsaraz is partly enclosed by walls of a castle overlooking Alqueva Lake, formed by the dam downstream. Across the lake is the castle of Mourão, while to the north is Estremoz, known for colourful marble. East is UNESCO World Heritage-listed Elvas, whose 6 km aqueduct and 2 star-shaped forts are quite a sight.

The attention and service you receive is second to none. The whole hotel and its facilities are beautiful and so well located in the Rota Vicentina. The restaurant was also amazing and Ricardo made sure we enjoyed our experience there. You simply cannot go wrong in choosing this beautiful place. Our only regret was that we wished we would have booked more days there on our Portuguese road trip. We will definitely return! Thankyou to the Herdade Do Touril team!

We had an early morning checkout, and they thoughtfully prepared a delicious packed breakfast for our departure. We also loved exploring the beautiful property, enjoying the local wildlife, and taking part in the complimentary wine tour offered to guests. It was a truly memorable experience, and we would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.

An interesting town, the centre enclosed within city walls.

An interesting town, the centre enclosed within city walls. Some very pleasant squares, small and large. The castle is worth a visit, with views of the surrounding countryside and de Graça fort to the north. Entry tickets cheaper for over 65s, which is often the case in Portugal. We loved the Igreja das Dominicas with its unusual shape, amazing tiles and wall paintings. We wanted to go to the Museum of Modern Art, but it was closed for renovations. Went to the Fort of St Luzia instead, which was very interesting, particularly with its links to the Duke of Wellington and the Peninsular War. Some very good value restaurants and cafés. We went to the restaurant at our hotel (São João de Deus) and thought the food was excellent quality, with amazingly low prices for some delicious starters in particular.

Sines was quiet when we visited, and I would guess it only gets small numbers of tourists. It has a lovely beach with fishing boats on one side of the bay/harbour and heading South, along the coast is industrial/oil refinery. You don't really see this from the town but I think this is why there are fewer visitors than would otherwise be expected of this town with the castle overlooking the crescent beach. A pleasant, quiet town. We ate at Merceara27 and it was great, with live music.
