    An amazing property. Wonderfully refurbished as a guest hotel, but retaining the historical features. More than just somewhere to stay, gives you an insight into the history of the area itself.

Property information

Located in Elvas, city classified as Unesco World Heritage Site, Travassos Palace lives within the walls that tell stories of the defense of the Kingdom of Portugal. Converted into a luxurious Bed & Breakfast, nominated Travassos 11, the famous Palace of the XVIII century wants to make a fascinating and unforgettable experience happen. This recently refurbished house maintains the memory of a manorial era. The tiles, the ceilings, the wood shutters and the interiors of the so-called historical floor recreate a house of other centuries. Afterwards, the staircase leads us to another universe, contemporaneous, deplenished, which intends to take us away from the so intense reality we live in. The warmth of the white walls, the linen, the cottons remit us to the respite, to the time we do not have. Here we find the space to repose, to recharge the energy absorbed by our day-to-day. The walled garden shelters in one of its corners a pool that invites us to a drink “on the rocks” and, of course, a dip… Here we can make time halt…
