Solar do Castelo

Wonderfully cute boutique hotel in the shadow of the castle. Beautifully fitted out and with a refreshingly relaxed attitude to breakfast and early evening drink/cakes, it felt more like staying with relatives than being on a hotel. Lovely breakfast courtyard, complete with screeching peacocks (who are really the ones in charge!) . Several nice restaurants within a ten minute walk, but be aware- you are staying at the top of a VERY steep hill, with limited vehicular access. I’d contend it a hotel for the physically active, there’s a fair bit of walking involved.

My dad and I stayed here while passing through Lisbon. We enjoyed it so much. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. They have excellent service. We loved the location on top of the hill in a charming area that was quiet and safe at night. We were able to walk everywhere. The rooms were clean. We loved it so much that we came back and stayed again on our way out of Portugal. I highly recommend staying here.

Great place next to the castle. Loved our cute boutique room and the view/small patio was lovely. You will find yourself surrounded by peacocks! Breakfast buffet was incredible. Loved all of the fruit, food options including mimosas. It is a bit difficult to get to so keep that in mind if renting a car or taking an Uber. You will need to walk up the hill. They do have a golf cart that can pick you up at certain to location. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because we had an ant problem in the room and they found their way up into the bed in the sheets without any sort of concession and would have been appreciated.

You literally can't get closer to the Castle - it used to be the old kitchens. Wonderful helpful staff. Access - only residents and taxis (not Uber) are allowed to the door. Not a problem if you can manage 150m or so. Rooms are cute but small, with a great view into the castle itself. Bonus point - the dozen or so peacocks and peahens, displaying in the morning. Great breakfast, remember 4€ tourist tax to be paid per person when leaving.

Overrated, expensive and not in the castle (Óbidos you can literally stay in the castle). It’s location is hard to find and everything is closed early. Parking is a nightmare, the nearest parking structure is a hike. As for the room super small with a narrow tub that drain barely does its job. On the day of checkout they had asked for another bs fee 8euros. Do not plan to sleep as peacocks were chanting all night. Save your money and stay elsewhere… we checked out and went to Cascais for the price
