This hotel is located within the historic walls and there’s not really a bad location within the historic walls… the whole little town was enormously charming. But, even still, our location was even better because we were above a restaurant where we ended up eating a delicious dinner and being waited on by the feral cat in love with our waitress. The interior was really lovely – white dabbed walls and dark wood trim. Our room felt clean and modern, reasonably spacy. This was probably the biggest bathroom and shower we encountered in Portugal – lovely. We liked that the lobby offered fruit, coffee, and tea. The manager let us keep our baggage in the lobby for a bit and was generally very nice. While she was communicative as we were traveling there, her communication was a bit confusing, first implying that she was picking us up at the train and then not – it may have been a language barrier. It was also complicated that she had to travel from her home north of Obidos to let us in, such that we had to closely coordinate arrival time – it seems they could arrange a lockbox or something. In related information, guests to this place should know that the train station is permanently closed so when you arrive, you’re not sure you’ve arrived to the right spot. You’re also a good few miles from the town walls and can only hope and pray a taxi is there waiting for potential train drop-offs, because the taxi numbers on the wall are not up to date. Lucky for us, Tony the taxi guy was hanging out and drove us in... and ended up driving us to Nazare the next day ($30 euros) … because, in another fact tourists should know, there are no buses or trains on Sundays from or to Obidos.
