Hotel Casa Das Senhoras Rainhas

All Staff were very warm, welcoming and helpful. The hotel was beautiful. The location was spectacular. Stay there at night to see the town after the day trip tourists leave. The locals will greet you warmly in the morning. Sunrise at the castle is inspiring.

Lovely small hotel within the old walled city. The private balcony was lovely.

It was perfect.

The Casa das Senhoras Rinhas is a very sweet hotel inside the walls of Obidos. In fact, we had a room that overlooked the wall, right next to the hotel! The staff at the front desk were warm and welcoming and even offered us a "welcome drink" of a cherry liquor that is representative of this region. The room was large and comfortable with all the amenities you would expect in a 5 Star property. The location is great because you are on a quiet side street away from the touristy crowds, yet close enough to indulge if you wanted to. What I loved about the hotel was that it was inside the city walls and an early morning walk with the sun rising before the tour buses arrived was surreal imagining what it must have been like 800 years ago. An interesting fact about the town was that early in Portugal's history, the King's of Portugal gave the governance of the city of Obidos to their Queens. There were a succession of queens that ruled Obidos and each of the rooms are named after one of them.

Just as a caution if you have hired a driver to take you to the hotel or if you are driving yourself. There is an entrance to the city in the rear wall of the castle. You just have to drive around to the back. Our driver didn't know about it so he dropped us off at another entrance through the wall and we had to walk with our luggage to the hotel which was about 600 feet. Not bad, but they do allow cars in the town and you just need to find the entrance.

Small hotel in a Historical building, renovated with taste, care and respect for original features. the room was small but comfortable, the quality of pillows, bedlinen and towels was excellent.

It was challenging to find it given the location but it's understandable given the topography of the historical town.
