Very homely feel. Super close to entry point of interest. So much so it’s actually inside the old castle wall

The location is great. It is in the heart of the historic centre, only a three minute walk to the castle and the casa Romana, in the town hall. Super quiet and I slept really well. Full of interesting items and information about the history of the building.

Mertola is a nice typical Alentejo mountain village with an incredible rich history predating the Roman Empire. We were visiting Mertola in April, thus there were not that many tourists, but this could be a different in high summer. We also really like the Dahesha landscape and might certainly consider revisiting the place.

Mértola is an ancient town, dating back to at least Roman times, full of interesting history, well worth reading up on by those interested. The castle and old church are open to the public and well worth a visit. It has its own charm, full of restaurants, many with traditional cuisine and really good value. The surrounding countryside is a mix of steppe grasslands, woodland and some fascinating rocky hills and gorges. I have a great interest in wildlife and in this area there are a number of rare birds, such as Great and Little Bustards, which can be seen in the steppe areas, especially early in the mornings. I was lucky to get some photos of the Great Bustard, see below. There are also Spanish Imperial Eagles breeding here, one of the rarest eagles in Europe and the rare Lesser Kestrel can be seen flying around the castle in the town.

Wonderful to stay for a few days, just park the car and walk the rest of the holiday, you can cycle, canoe, walk by the river, go and have a meal, seat in a cafe and have a drink, very pretty and lots of little traditional details, some beautiful architecture, plenty of shops to buy food and restaurants, go on a boat trip up and down the river, wake up hearing the sheeps bells rambling on the river margin and watch the sunset hearing the shrills of the swallows and relax.

Mértola was a great little town that serves as an excellent base to explore the southern Alentejo. They have a great castle also an archaeological dig. Alot of restaurantes to chose from and great views of the river from many points.
Casa dos Chocalhos is situated in a rural area about 15 minutes drive from Mertola, perfect for a relaxed few days away from everything but great for exploring Mertola itself, the Guadiana river and wine farms to the north and west. This region is hot in August, 40°C+ so the pool and outdoor shower are just perfect for that, a great outdoor area with 'churrasco', aircon in the bedrooms. Bernardo was in contact for any queries via WhatsApp and we were greeted on arrival by Helena with a warm welcome, thank you both.
What an adventure to stay in a medieval “palace” though with modern plumbing and lighting! Mertola has a number of small, very interesting museums with items collected from archeological digs and disused religious facilities — sacred art, Islamic art, a Roman house — along with a fairly intact castle and archeological sites. It is well worth visiting and Mertola Castelo Palace is just steps from all of this.
Casa da Tia is a very nice guesthouse with an incredible atmosphere. The rooms are nice, the beds perfect, the lightning, wifi, ... very good. Staff helps out where they can, there is a restaurant nearby from the same owner, the view on Mértola (15 min walk) incredible and I appreciate the fact that we can use the kitchen.
This hotel is situated very beautifully beside the river and we had a great view from our room and balcony at the river and the hills. The staff was so friendly and everything was very clean. For us this was the perfect hotel to explore Mertola and do some hiking trip in the national park Vale do Guadiana.
Charming hotel right across the river from Mértola castle. Perfect location for exploring the area. Easy parking. The room was cute, clean, and comfortable. Walked to a good restaurant. Our room had a view of the castle. We drove and hiked in the area and returned to the hotel each evening.
The family room and the terrace were spacious and the pool was very appreciated after a long hot day.
The restaurant bar from the pool was a nice surprise as they offered drinks but also very good pesticos.
The castle of Mertola is in a short walking distance up the hill.
The location of the house was nice, right in the heart of Mertola. The layout of the apartment was excellent, and we loved the terrace! Ana was available by text whenever we needed her. All in all, we loved staying in the house!
The pool and the view from it are definitely the highlights here. It's a perfect viewing spot of the castle and town of Mértola. The rooms were comfy and staff attentive. Good breakfast, the homemade cakes were incredible.
The location with views across river to Mértola. Comfortable private terrace area. Pleasant gardens, plenty of sun beds around pool area. Lovely restaurant approximately 5 minutes walk away but not open every day.
Absolutely wonderful host, very welcoming and helpful to ensure we had an enjoyable stay
Excellent view of the river and the city of Mertola
Comfortable room, included a small shared kitchenette
Excellent hosts and hospitality. This is a true hidden gem in Mértola. Located off the beaten bath it was absolutely wonderful for our family of four and we will certainly make a return visit.
Extremely friendly and welcoming staff.
Value for money is okay if you're only staying one or two nights. Rooms are clean. Good enough if you want to visit Mertola on a low budget
Location in downtown Mértola, river view, peaceful quiet morning, nice views out both windows, cute balcony. We loved jumping in the pool. Hot water in shower. Comfortable bed.
Comfortable bed, high quality linens, central, quiet, view, affordable, daily housekeeping. We truly enjoyed our stay here. Free museums. Roman roads to hike on. Thank you
