The hotel was gorgeous and the staff was very friendly and helpful! I loved how walkable the town is and that there was a hiking trail around the walls.

The room was very small, barely had a window and had clear signs of mold. The price was amongst the most expensive and the quality was subpar. We spent two hours looking for our car when we left because the hotel personnel had moved it to a better space but didn’t communicate it to us. That’s unacceptable.

The experience of staying in an old castle was amazing. The lounge areas are very comfortable, I could even have a couple of business video calls there, while enjoying the complimentary tea and cookies
The restaurant were we had breakfast is amazing, it was the dinner hall of the castle and you can feel like in the Middle Ages. Views from there are beautiful, we had dinner one evening and it was very good too
You can start the walk over the ramparts right outside the hotel, it’s a must, you can circle around the whole town enjoying the amazing views
The only con: we asked for a room inside the castle ( we thought it would be more charming), but the rooms there are too small, no closets and the bathroom was so small that the water form the shower was flooding the whole bathroom
We asked to be moved to another room ( this was outside the castle, they have another wing next to the reception), and this was great: ample and comfortable
The ginginha ( sour cherry brandy) little bottle as a gift was a nice touch too
There is no better way to enjoy the Obidos medieval ambience than staying in this hotel

A great place to stay
Posted Oct. 13, 2023 on HotelsA nice place to stay, Very helpful staff and terrific views not far from our room. The included breakfast was the best we had on our total trip. I little on the expensive side but worth it.

Little parking and nobly brings in your luggage. You carry your own luggage over Corcle stones because you have to park outside the castle. The person inside who Cattie your luggage up 25 stairs was wonderful throughout our stay. We ate dinner in a beautiful hotel restaurant, and they had one lovely waitress for the entire dining room. Give me a break. The food was very good. I loved Óbidos and it shouldn’t be missed, but come for the day and don’t stay over.

Nice opportunity to stay physically inside the castle, albeit the back side and with no real views from the rooms themselves, but still a very nice room! Very comfortable bed, modern bathroom, lovely soaking tub from tired muscles spent climbing the millions of stairs in Obidos!
The only downsides to our stay were:
1. Really no actual parking on site or near the hotel despite "Parking" listed (we had to haul our suitcases quite a distance), so don't do this if you're handicapped or not up for a lot of walking and carrying!
2. Saturday, September 16th 2023 was probably a terrible night for the kitchen staff in the restaurant because the dinner was also pretty terrible. I could imagine Gorden Ramsey filming an episode of "Kitchen disasters" back there, yelling at the staff and saying things like "This is BURNT! This is OVERCOOKED! What is THIS?!" and so on. I can only imagine they had a bad night or something and maybe the food is better the rest of the time, but caveat emptor on the food! Location, nice!

It was very difficult to get to the hotel. Once the taxi drops you , you need to walk about 10 min with your heavy luggage all the way up to the hotel.
We got a very tiny room with 2 small windows, it felt like a basement.
The castle is beautiful but not sure if it’s worth the price to this hotel . Staff were friendly.
