The Pousada de Arraiolos, Nossa Senhora da Assunção, is situated in a sixteenth century convent presenting itself as an example in the art of recovery of historical buildings which combine traditional features with the concepts of modern architecture.
The union between tradition and modernisms is celebrated in this Pousada with innovated luxury.
During the middle ages the convent served the local evangelistic population. With the restoration into Pousada, the austerity gave way to joy, the simplicity of comfort and to penance to life’s pleasures.
Staying at this Pousada is a fantastic pretext for getting to know the town of Arraiolos, whose cultural heritage is world renowned, through its carpets which are a true work of art of tapestry.
The Pousada has 35 spacious rooms, simply decorated and most of them with private balconies.
White is the predominant colour, which together with the designer wooden beds and materials used, make 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, by bicycle or simply on foot.
The hotel also has a playground for the children.
The Pousada’s restaurant strongly represents the Alentejo cuisine; besides the traditional Portuguese dishes it also offers international cuisine.
Guests of the Arraiolos hotel park for free on location.
