Testimonials

We organized a prestigious two-week residential School for postgraduate students using the Évora Hotel’s conference facilities and full-board accommodation. The good conference facilities, comfortable accommodation, and leisure facilities of the hotel were much appreciated by the participants. The managers of the hotel were extremely helpful and responsive to our numerous requests, and we enjoyed working with them.
