My stay at Hotel Riviera in Évora had its highs and lows. The location was superb, set in the heart of the town, and allowed easy access to attractions. however, the noise from outside, especially on Friday night, made it hard to get restful sleep. While the breakfast was indeed satisfactory, I found the cleanliness and comfort of the room lacking due to maintenance issues. Overall, it was a mixed experience.

My stay at Hotel Riviera in Evora had its ups and downs. On the bright side, the breakfast was excellent, one of the best I've encountered in Portugal. The location is another highlight, being just steps away from the historic center, making it easy to explore. However, I faced some discomfort due to street noise late into the night, and I was not pleased with the flaky ceiling materials that fell onto my bed, which really detracted from my experience.

They offer on-site parking, which is a blessing given the tight parking constraints in Evora. However, the issues I encountered with the ceiling were a significant downside.
