When 13th-century Portuguese Queen Isabel passed through Obidos and marveled at its beauty, her husband King Denis I simply gave it to her. For centuries after, the kings of Portugal followed suit, presenting the picturesque little town to their queens as a wedding gift. With its white buildings shining as brightly now as then, the walled city of Obidos is very popular with tourists, its hillside location offering amazing views of the Estremadura area. The medieval castle is a main attraction.

Visited here for a pre-dinner drink. 2 x G&T’s €25 !! Will not be returning. Ridiculous!!! Make sure your credit card isn’t maxed out ? Such a shame as this establishment is actually outside the walls. There are cheaper places to have a drink inside the walled town.

We stayed only one night, but Miguel was the perfect host! It was a pleasure talking with him, he made an excellent breakfast and it felt just like staying in a relative's home. Miguel also went out of his way to help carry a heavy suitcase (which I would make sure my husband doesn't bring again!!) across the cobblestone streets. We had a private room with a shared bath. Interestingly quirky decor and spotlessly clean. We are looking forward to our next stay in Obidos and will definitely stay at Hostel Argonata again.

Casa de Campo Sao Rafael is a beautiful country house located 2 km from the town of Obidos. It offers guests a wonderful view of the Obidos village and its castle. Casa de Campo Sao Rafael offers 10 charming rooms fully equipped with all the amenities. Every room at Casa de Campo Sao Rafael has been carefully and tastefully decorated to create a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere, strongly influenced by the Portuguese tradition.
I stayed here for 2 nights with my family. We booked 2 rooms for a family of 4. The first room was lovely, nice and big and bright, the second room was almost unusable due to the smell of damp, we just used it to sleep in and after a nights sleep there our pyjamas had the same strong smell on them. We did ask to change rooms when we first booked in but they were fully booked. Apart from that we did think it was a nice place with a good pool and lovely gardens although the welcome could have been better compared to other places we stayed. If you stay here ask for a room away from the damp side of the house.

Loved our little room in this walled city. Our room had a very comfortable bed, pillows and linens. There was a very unique sink and bathtub/shower IN the room with a private toilet in the room as well. We had a window that opened onto a pedestrian street below that we enjoyed having open - not noisy - just quiet street chatter. Since there was no breakfast included with the room we enjoyed our morning meal just across the way at a lovely cafe with delicious choice of pastries. Highly recommend this guesthouse!

We stayed here for one night on our Portugal adventure and it was worth the extra mileage by far. Obidos is a small town situated inside a castle wall. Charming stores, friendly people and a castle wall walk not for the faint of heart. Our host was amazingly helpful and accommodating. A room and breakfast fit for a queen.

For the price, this was a great find and I can highly recommend this place! My room was clean, the owner was very pleasant and the guest house is in a lovely area. They also have a restaurant directly below, which wasn’t open at the time of my visit but by the reviews, serves great food. I came to Óbidos in October 2020.

WiFi ranged from horrible to non existent. Rooms were clean and basic with nice historical tidbits available (I was in the Maiden Room). Size was bigger than most European hotel rooms. Location is fabulous. Breakfast was heavy on bread products but fine by my standards. I looked the automatic lights.

"Casa do Fontanário", is for many reasons a very special place. It's excellent location allows a quick and easy access to the Medieval Town of Óbidos.
This is a family run business and the owner went out of his way to make sure that everything went well for me. I was impressed that this is a 500-year-old building that has been modified over the years in has been brought up to date by the family. The hospitality here is excellent. Although the rooms are small, they did not lack for anything... an excellent value.
