Located just inside Évora’s historic walls, the M’AR de AR Muralhas offers an excellent base from which to explore the city. A contemporary hotel with large, tastefully furnished rooms, the property has a bright, modern feel tempered by the addition of traditional design elements such as the earthy tones of terracotta flooring. The rooms are classical in style but understated with rustic furniture and soft fabrics. To the rear you’ll find a generous garden that backs directly onto the medieval city ramparts and features a large outdoor swimming pool. On the ground floor, the BAR Muralhas provides a pleasant seating area as well as an outdoor terrace overlooking the pool. Should you wish to dine in, the hotel’s Sabores do Alentejo restaurant offers an innovative menu based around the traditional cuisine of the region.
Well-located and offering excellent value for money, we find the M’AR de AR Muralhas to be a particularly comfortable and convenient hotel.
