Storslagen byggnad i en vacker stad
Pousadan ligger i en storslagen, fantastisk byggnad i en vackert bedagad liten stad. Rummen ligger i de gamla munkcellerna. Fint inredda men kanske lite dystra, med sina små fönster. Sängarna var alldeles för hårda, en bäddmadrass skulle ha behövts för våra svenska ryggar.

Historic location with luxury feel
Good news:
Beautifully historic location with gorgeous architecture and provenance.
Good location locally.
Lovely spacious room, very comfortable and classic in design.
Watchouts:
No USB sockets, bring a plug.
Issues with dinner service - 1 hour wait after ordering and only 8 guests in the restaurant, food good though
Hotels Reward Tiers ignored (free wine for us not acknowledged by the hotel although later removed from our dinner bill).
Gardens are very basic in maintenance that might bother some.
Loungers limited in numbers around the unheated pool.
Bathroom a little dated but not tired just old plumbing.
Would revisit though.

Gem of a hotel in otherwise bleak town of Beja.
Business two day stop in Beja, previously stayed on edge of town but will opt for this hotel as right in centre. Great breakfast, lots of character( converted convent type building) friendly staff and acccomodating. Lovely pool area and gardens.

Beautiful hotel stunning building so many unusual seating areas. Restaurant was so lovely we ate in the hotel to enjoy it which we rarely do. Staff were helpful and friendly. Great location as a base to do the town and visit surrounding area.

Fabulous old historic building. The staff were very friendly. Restaurant had limited menu and food was ok nothing to rave about. As a Gold VIP member I was not given the bottle of wine as a perk and I had to ask for it. Also there was no mention of an upgrade. This part of the service was disappointing.

Good spot to slow down and relax
Interesting converted convent. Hotel was very quiet and so was the town of Beja. Not much to do the area. The bed was very hard but overall it was a lovely stay with a great breakfast included.

A wonderful place to stay in the heart of Beja
This converted convent is a wonderplace to stay, and right in the heart of Beja. The room was very quiet; the breakfast was wonderful. Our only complaints are that the bed is extremely hard, and the room smells like an old hospital room.

As it was an old monastery, the feeling of the 750 year old is still impressive. The rooms have been modernized with individual bathrooms etc. but it still has the feel of the old original feeling with its large curved ceilings and the reception is the entrance to the old original Church.
As it is an old monastery, note that it does not look like any of the modern hotels, it is by the police station.
Very quiet in the evenings, I could hear a pin drop, I only wished I had more time to explore the whole hotel.
I will have to visit there again.
