Small and beautifully decorated hotel. The pool area was pretty. The breakfast was lovely and the staff friendly. The housekeeper Paula was friendly and helpful. We would stay again.

Old World charm with all the modern amenities. I plan to return to Pias only to stay at the Bética Hotel Rural!

Tucked away place to rest.
Posted 20 Jan 2015 on HotelsTucked away in a very small town is a nice little place to rest. There is a cafe down the street to eat that I think almost everyone in town was at. The breakfast was meats, cheese, bread, cereal, and standard stuff. The coffee was excellent.

Small Town Charm
Posted 12 Jun 2014 on HotelsOur room was very clean and comfortable. Pedro was helpful in providing information about nearby sights and the restaurant down the street. The location is in a small Alentejo town, quaint and charming. The hotel is family run, and warm and inviting. The sitting areas are cosy and the decor is home style. Our breakfast was continental, with fresh fruits and cereals... ample to start the day. We enjoyed our experience here.

An oasis
Posted 4 Jul 2013 on HotelsThe hotel was in a small village and did not have a very impressive exterior but when you went through the front door, it.was amazing. The hotel was beautifully decorated with a very relaxing courtyard pool. The owners were most welcoming and friendly.

Personal service
Posted 15 Jun 2013 on HotelsThis was a charming place where the owner & her husband took very good care of us. They showed us the room we could choose from. Breakfast was acceptable and plentiful. If I were ever back in this area I would stay there again.

No reason to stay elsewhere in Sourthern Portugal!
Posted 5 Jun 2013 on HotelsWe had been all over Portugal and Spain by the time we found the Betica. Without any doubt, it was the most warm, inviting and special place we stayed during our two weeks. The family owners (Victor, Teresa and Pedro) and staff went out of their way to make us welcome without it seeming to be out of their way. The rooms were comfortable, private, quiet and attractive.
The breakfast is more than enough to get you on your way for the day whether you plan to day trip somewhere, plan to walk the streets and alleys of Pias or just simply intend to read a book by the pool with the cats.
We visited a couple of the wineries in the area and Teressa had kindly made the inquires and plans for us. Since they were going to celebrate a family birthday party in a nearby olive grove, they were again kind enough to invite us to join them for a lively afternoon that could not have felt more genuine and friendly.
I honestly can't say enough about my new friends in Portugal and look forward to retuning to the Betica Hotel Rural to see them again.

Very nice hotel and proprietors
Posted 16 May 2013 on HotelsThe hotel was very nice and close to good restaurants. The closest town with attractions (Serpa) is 13km from the hotel. Proprietors provided a very good map of Serpa. Good breakfast with local breads and jams. Rates were very reasonable. Pool was nice on a hot day.
