For setting and history this hotel scores very highly. The room was large and the bathroom excellent and there was a nespresso machine but don’t expect a lot of frills. The restaurant severs up hearty no nonsense fare. The traditional stew, described as a soup (Sopa Caramela) was a meal all by itself. The bream was unfussy and tasty and the noodles with prawns was also good. The crème brulee was home made and excellent where as the chocolate temptation which sounds exciting looked like a commercial chocolate fondant. The castle next door is great for an evening wander and sun set views before dinner.

Pousada de Pamela is set in a truly beautiful location, offering breathtaking 360-degree views, especially at sunset from the terrace. The pousada’s historical charm adds to the experience, making it a fantastic base for exploring the nearby castle. The rooms are warm and comfortable, with real eiderdown duvets providing extra cosiness in winter. Some of the staff were exceptionally helpful, going out of their way to assist, while others were less attentive than expected. Breakfast was excellent, with a generous selection of breads, spreads, fruits, yoghurts, eggs, bacon, cakes, and more - plenty to suit all tastes. Though we didn’t try the restaurant for supper, the morning meal was a highlight.

The Pousada Castelo de Palmela is an amazing place. The Pousada is part of a Castle from the time of the Knights Templar and its right next to the ancient chapel of the Castle. The views of the surrounding towns of Palmela, Setubal and the National Park Arrabida are fantastic. The rooms are large and comfortable but don’t expect luxury as this was the rectory of an order of Warrior Monks. From the history of the Castelo and with what the Pousada offers if you’re traveling in this part of Portugal I highly recommend booking a couple nights to stay and explore!

The location is great, right next to the castle. Parking was right out in front of the hotel. The staff was friendly, including the hardest working waiter in Portugal. We had a nice view of the valley from our room. It was a very quiet, relaxing stay there. We had dinner at the hotel restaurant and the dourada was fresh and grilled perfectly.

Good location set within a castle on top of a hill overlooking the town. Good rooms which are large and same old style as all pousada's, good breakfast and bar but can't coment on the evening meal as we didn't eat there of a night.

The Pousada is in an excellent location, very nice views to Setubal and to the castle. The breakfast was outstanding, a lot of choice and good quality. The rooms are very large and have good air-conditioning. The reception was extremely helpful and friendly.

Very quiet, comfortable, clean. We felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. The views are spectacular. Staff is wonderful. (Special shout out to Ana. She was the one we saw most of the time. Very friendly, very professional. I love how enthusiastic she was about the Castelo and the hotel property. She always made time to answer our questions and give recommendations.) Breakfast- in a word- FANTASTIC. Everything was fresh and delicious. The man who set up the buffet and tended the area was very nice and always made sure it was clean and stocked.

Hugo, the gentleman that checked us in is the same kind, interesting and helpful person who greeted us when we first looked at the hotel a few weeks prior to staying there this first time. His talking with us and historical knowledge is undoubtedly a major reason why we returned to stay there. Our thanks to Hugo, for great conversation and a wonderful stay at Pasado Castelo de Pamela.

Beautiful location in a stunning building which is nicely restored, offering a good level of comfort. Evening meal was excellent and the quality of food was certainly five star in the evening.
