Stunning setting in a centuries old tower and palace, excellent attentive staff, superb breakfast. ALERT: the property is inside a walled medieval village and not accessible by car or taxi. The hotel will meet you and bring you back to parking outside the walls.

While parking outside the town and walking in with bags was a little inconvenient, it was understandable and well worth the trouble.

The rooms in the castle are small and quaint, but, hey, you’re staying in a castle! It’s magical! The staff is great both in the hotel and dining room. The food in the restaurant is terrific!

Top notch!

This was our top stay in Portugal. A bit expensive, but abolutely worth it. Very nice room, with very comfortable beds. Staff were very helpful, and gave us all the information we needed. Picked up our luggage (and us) with their golfcart. Service was excellent. Exclusive access to the castle, and the towers kept you away from the tourist crowds during daytime on the city walls. Also a very nice patio in front of the reception with a nice view over over the town. If we could afford it I would have liked to stay longer here.

This is most likely the nicest hotel in Obidos, located in the former medieval Moorish Castle and subsequent Bishops Palace, in the heart of the old city. Note that you must park outside the walls in the free lot behind a nearby bank. The hotel provides a golf cart shuttle for your luggage. The rooms are comfortable. Good included breakfast in the Bishops Palace.

Dining at the pousada leaves much to be desired. The staff was very attentive however it appears that the problem was in the kitchen. It took us about an hour and a half to get our order. I ordered a steak which was raw and was served with fried potato peels. My wife ordered risotto which was good. There were only two other tables with customers. There were also flies buzzing about the dining room.

Our stay in the castle was a great experince. The staff friendly. Breakfast great with some healthy choices Need to know walking here is on cobblestones. Cars are not allowed. If staying at the castle you are walking with suitcases from the bottom to the top. Wear good shoes Lots to do within the castle. Other places to visit are about an hour away

Dreadful, this place is not worth the money. If you HAVE to stay in Obidos, choose somewhere cheaper. This place has zero soundproofing in the rooms, you can hear absolutely everything your neighbours are up to, from using the bathroom, having a conversation to midnight fun & games. Staff are wonderful as is the breakfast, but unless you pay top $$$ for the most expensive Castle rooms, it’s not worth the money. For two nights, we had a total of 7hrs sleep - dreadful.
