  Interesting Historical pousada experience

  Rooms are adequate but not great. Clean but dated in furnishings and decor. Some with fab views over The Atlantic Ocean.Dining options very limited and in our case many items not available 😕 Service very slow with inexperienced staff that could benefit with hospitality training.Otherwise very historical with great atmosphere and settling. Definitely worth visit but eat out.Rooms are adequate but not great. Clean but dated in furnishings and decor.

  Perfect location and splendid view over the area - all the way to Lisbon

  A former convent is now the pousada here in Palmela. It lies next to the old castle. Free parking at the hotel. Friendly and informative reception. Rooms are quite big, and very big beds - but too hard for us (and most others I guess).A very quiet place and you wake up to a very nice buffet style breakfast. We missed youghurts...Prices were also OK. Hugo Murilhas, Guest Services / Front Office… Read moreA former convent is now the pousada here in Palmela. It lies next to the old castle.

  Highlight of Our Trip

  Beautiful hotel with historic ruins, incredible views, and modern amenities. Large rooms. Service was the highlight of our trip. From the moment we arrived late at night due to circumstances beyond our control, to the Bobo restaurant and the beautiful artisan jewelry and café, the people at this hotel ensured our experience was a highlight of trip to Spain and Portugal! We can't wait to return som… Read moreBeautiful hotel with historic ruins, incredible views, and modern amenities. Large rooms. Service was the highlight of our trip.
