We arrived on the 28th of October a little late and the staff was wonderful getting us checked in . the room was very nice and comfortable. We enjoyed the area and the staff answered any questions we had.
My wife and I recently stayed at this very peaceful pousada, the first night of our five pousada passport nights. Service was excellent and the room, with two vaulted ceiling areas, was interesting and comfortable. The tiled chapel of the former convent is magnificent. Typical pousada breakfast but presented here with extra care (did not have dinner here). We would definitely recommend this pousada to other travelers who enjoy an impressive but tranquil environment.
We had the perfect night’s stay in Arraiolos. It was easy to find, even easier to park. A pleasure after Obidos. Our rooms were lovely and we enjoyed a late afternoon swim the pool. We ate in the restaurant and had a wonderful meal. Sitting on the lovely terrace for a glass of wine was very tranquil with only the odd sheep or goat to be hear. The beautiful tiles in the church at the entrance were breathtaking. The gentleman at reception was also particularly helpful. (21 September 2012)
