After you have found the entrance, you enter a pretty courtyard with a gate to the peaceful garden. The room was nice and clean. Breakfast was really good, with lots of fresh rolls and fruit. Alcochete is a really good site for birdwatching.

It was a bit by accident we stayed here. But they offered pool, tennis court and games room which was good for kids. Copious breakfast and handy mini bar fridge in the room. I liked the way the room opened out onto a couryard so each room had its own front door. The lady who runs it only speaks German, which was fine for us.

The area looks out to the Tejo river with sweeping views and there are simple Portuguese restaurants to eat at, great prices and you can practice your language as one place we went to didn't have any spoken English and only one hand written menu. It was great, fresh fish & jug of wine for two under 20 euros. Alcochete is not a scenic place so I wouldn't recommend it for that.

The place is located just in front of the Tagus river in lovely old Alcochete, but I wouldn't recommended it since the rooms are very old fashion and poorly maintained. In our case the sink would quickly get full of water when having it running and the toilet wouldn't stop running water after flashing it! That's just bad. There is no main hall to seat around or bar or room service. The pool is old and without enough space for chairs to lay down there during the day. The front doors are tiny with old fashion keys and no real facilities to enjoy for the amount of money you pay! As for the service it looks like all the staff are permanent residents there and they never had any kind of hotel training, as we did found them useless and even rude. Bad experience when you have a proper hotel just 100 m away.
