Urban and historic
The Pousada Convento Beja is located in the old Convent of São Francisco in the city of Beja, in Alentejo. Located in the city centre just 700 metres from the castle and 200 metres from the Queen D. Leonor museum, the Pousada is the result of a majestic, architectural project that is representative of Portugal's religious and gothic architecture.
During your stay you can relax in the fantastic gardens, take a dip in the outdoor swimming pool, and spend your free time playing on the tennis court. For your meals, the Pousada has a restaurant and a bar.
