The bed was a bit too soft for me

Unique building

Stayed in June 2025

We stayed here for one night. The property is beautiful, as it was a convent, now converted into a hotel, with a dinner restaurant, breakfast restaurant and there is a spa and a pool. Its a large property and there weren't many guests. There is free parking onsite and the property is away from the town, so no cafe or restaurant close by. The room was in the newer part of the building, so it was light filled and modern. You can choose to be in the new or older area. The bed was comfortable and so were the pillows. There is a fridge, aircon, wifi, tv. Lovely big bathroom. We had dinner in the hotel and I would highly recommend it. I had the Hunting menu and it was beautiful. We didn't have breakfast. The staff were all lovely, friendly and helpful. My husband swam in the pool, which he said needed a bit of a clean and the lawns around needed mowing. The rooms were spotless, but there are public areas that do need to be cleaned - the lift is one. I wondered if they are understaffed because its not peak times. I would stay again though as everything else ticked all the boxes.

The room was clean and comfortable with air conditioning. The restaurant was good and the food was delicious. We didn't have breakfast so we cannot comment. The pool was a lovely place to cool down

The restaurant produces delicious food but there isn’t a single item in the menu for a vegetarian. So many people do not eat meat or fish these days, me included, this seemed out of touch with modern times.

It’s a very interesting building with lots of history. Birds roost in the courtyard tree which is magical as they sing loudly.

Minor, but worth adding that the Tesla destination charger wasn’t working. Maintenance did appear instantly to help me try fix it but no such luck. Rooms a little outdated, but still comfortable and a welcome site after a long day.

Firstly, I’ll start by saying that, Alcantara is a hidden gem destination in Spain. Perhaps a little bias, as I’ve been visiting for 10 years. Nonetheless the place is a natural beauty! So location wise, if you want a relaxing Spanish countryside stay, here is the place. The hotel itself is cool and a unique stay, the fittings and the history behind the building is very cool. Staff, like most people in the village, are very friendly and helpful to someone with mediocre Spanish vocabulary. My favourite part of the stay was the walk back to the hotel at the end of my day, really was pretty at sunset/sunrise.

Spacious, quiet and friendly staff. The town’s history is very interesting. From the hotel it’s just a 10 minutes walk. Restaurant is good value for money, nice dishes.

Rooms lack cosiness, spacious rooms but bare and dark

Fantastic care for pets. Provided beds , wipes, water bowls and toys that you could bring with you when you left. Fairly good and priced restaurant. Welcoming and very helpful staff . Will be happy to be back

Directions signs to our room could have been better, we got semi lost a few times.

Historic building, great room, really good dinner, Marie the waitress - she was fab.

That there is a modern dam nearby, but not the fault of the hotel. That’s the only blot here. The place is utterly beautiful. The people are lovely also.

Alcantarra is breathtaking to drive up to when you come towards the Roman bridge. This hotel is a lovely complement to that. Staff are all friendly and rooms are nice, spacious and clean. The building has some lovely history also, but I would say the location is its strongest point.

We booked the hotel because it had a pool & travelled out of our way to get to it. Only to find the pool was closed, very disappointed 😔 & would have cancelled the booking. The room was very hot the air conditioning was not adequate for the size of the room, we had a very uncomfortable night & did not sleep very much. We had a booking for our return trip, this has been cancelled.

The staff especially Maria who looked after us.😊the evening dinner was great.

The lovely quiet and relaxed atmosphere. The way that the original convent buildings have been redesigned sympathetically to retain many original features. The capacious rooms. The efficient and polite staff.

Not being able to stay one or 2 more days.

Both the lady at reception and the lady in the restaurant were amazing, very friendly and welcoming. The swimming pool was very nice and located in a very quiet corner outside the building. The room was very spacious and the air conditioning was very efficient.

Air conditioning was poor

Location and history

When asked about the spa, we were just told it was closed. The Pool was a green mess and not suitable to get in

charming converted convent ( with historical milling equipment onsite from its former life) in a quiet, ancient town. the goats with bells outside our window were the perfect country ambiance. The menu de dia was a good value, a small bar on site and a king bed proved to be a restful overnight stay. The town is rich in Roman antiquity surroundings.

We were unable to adjust the controls to cool the room down and the weather was unseasonably hot. The only option was to sleep with the window open which we weren’t keen about.

A nice welcome from reception staff and a comfortable room and bathroom. There was a nice ambience in the hotel and the restaurant staff were very friendly. There was a lovely bar area to sit out in the warm weather but also space inside. The half board option was excellent value. On-site free parking. Hotel is slightly out of town and easy to get to.
