I enjoyed my stay at M'Ar De Ar Aqueduto, with the hotel offering a lovely blend of historic charm and modern amenities. The location was perfect for exploring Évora, but the air conditioning could have been more effective, especially during the warm August nights. The friendly staff and delicious breakfast truly enhanced my experience, although the inconsistent maintenance in some areas was noticeable.

Rooms

I stayed in a suite that was spacious with high ceilings, but the lighting was quite dim, and the air conditioning struggled to cool the room properly.

The hotel's location just inside the city walls was fantastic for sightseeing, with the aqueduct view being a highlight. It's a short walk to the main attractions, though it's worth noting that the hotel is at one end of town, so keep that in mind if mobility is a concern.
