Hostel de Borba is located in the centre of Borba city. Borba is a Portuguese city in the district of Évora, in the region of Alentejo and in the sub-region of Central Alentejo, having as main economic activities the extraction and transformation of marble. This activity originates a unique landscape, contrasting the deep craters from where the so-called 'white gold' is extracted with the huge quarries where the surplus is deposited.
Another strong point are the cheeses produced in Santiago de Rio de Moinhos, the sausages and the traditional Borba bread, produced with long-standing teachings and knowledge that have been passed down from generation to generation.
However, several activities are still kept alive in this region, such as handicrafts, artistic stonework, furniture painting, restoration, antiques and the increasingly well known cork works.
In the course of these 'discoveries' we have the gastronomy, where still resides Borba's old ritual, the 'Fazer as 11'.
Half a dozen kilometres away, Serra d'Ossa, a pleasant place on the Alentejo plain, is also worth a visit.
Borba also stands out for its vast and rich historical heritage that invites you to discover and to rediscover history, calling for a longer and more attentive visit.
Hostel de Borba is located 55 km from the city of Évora and 51 km from the city of Badajoz (Spain), the Humberto Delgado Airport is 178 km away.
Our dorms aim to reflect the traditional and popular feeling of Alentejo with a modern, creative and uncompromising approach. The Superior Rooms is the most emblematic part of the house, where we offer 4 private rooms,
so we are geared towards travellers who are looking for the best comfort at the best price. In addition, we also offer common areas in which guests can relax and exchange past experiences and future plans.
