Pousada Arraiolos, Nossa Senhora da Assunção
In a sixteenth century convent
The Pousada de Arraiolos, Nossa Senhora da Assunção, is situated in a sixteenth century convent. It is an example in the art of restoring historical buildings, combining traditional features with the concepts of modern architecture. The union between tradition and modernism is celebrated in this Pousada with innovative luxury.
During the middle ages the convent served the local evangelical population. With the restoration and conversion to a Pousada, austerity gave way to joy, simplicity gave way to comfort, and penance gave way to life’s pleasures.
Staying at this Pousada is a fantastic pretext to getting to know the town of Arraiolos, whose cultural heritage is world renowned through its carpets which are truly beautiful works of art.
The Pousada has 35 spacious rooms, simply decorated and most have private balconies. White is the predominant colour which, together with the designer wooden beds and materials used, makes this décor unique. All rooms have cable TV and a mini bar.
At the exterior of the Pousada there is pool with wide sun terraces and a panoramic view of the natural Alentejo landscape where you can explore the surroundings on horseback, on a bicycle or simply on foot. The hotel also has a playground for the children.
The Pousada’s restaurant strongly represents the Alentejo cuisine. Alongside traditional Portuguese dishes it also offers international cuisine.
Guests of the Arraiolos hotel park for free on location.
