★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I had a standard double room. I expected it to be in the castle keep, but in reality it was in one of the adjacent white buildings, which didn't look very special. In terms of atmosphere it didn't do much for me, other than being inconveniently small. Yes, I know that it can't be helped, but definitely consider leaving your luggage behind. The keep itself is pretty small, not sure how many rooms they have there. It contains the restaurant which does have some nice medieval atmosphere. Considering it was in a historical building, the room was well kempt.
The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, which helped justify some of the price for me, but bottom line I didn't feel it was worth it.
If that's what you are looking for, for this price I have stayed in much better castle hotels in eastern Europe (you might not find the same friendly service there however).

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The staff was so friendly and kind. Helpful with any questions and moving luggage. Inside the castle wall is a small village that is humble and feels like stepping back in time. I traveled from the top of Portugal to Lisboa and inside the walls was the very best authentic shopping! I can not wait to go back! The castle is maintained well, beautifully decorated, breathtaking views, amazing friendly people, delicious food, amazing souvenirs and possibly one of the best experiences of my life! Huge thank you to the staff.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very well-prepared food in a regal setting within the walls of the castle. Service is professional and gracious. Prices are on the high side, but so what, you're dining like royalty! One caveat: insist on being seated in the main dining room. The smaller room at the entrance looks fine, but that's where the WC is, plus the entrance for the cleaning crew, and where linens, etc. are stored. Stick with the main room and be prepared for menu prices that are somewhat higher than you would expect in Portugal.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An amazing place to stay the night.
Could not imagine a better way to experience Óbidos rather than staying a night T the castle.
The room are small, and old, but magnificent, the castle grounds are beautiful and the view from the walls and towers is breathtaking.
We also had dinner at the castle restaurant, it was nice, but the food can do better.
On top the staff was kind and helpful.
Getting there was not too easy, we climbed all the way with a 9 seats van, but be sure to take a small car.
In the end it was worth everything.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Stayed in the castle (and upgraded to the king/queen tower) after a day in Óbidos. Really a unique and once in a lifetime experience. All staff bent over backwards for you. Definitely not your typical hotel (obviously) but in a good way. Cannot day enough good about our stay and would highly recommend to anyone

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Charming location, but I missed some of the comforts such as extra blankets and tea making facilities in the room. Also, there is no bar or coffee area to get refreshments outside of mealtimes.
Pack light as you'll have to carry your luggage from the car park

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fun night in a castle, but with modern amenities. It is not a normal hotel, so prepare yourself, but the grounds and the town make up for loosing out on some of the creature comforts we are used to from similarly priced hotels that aren't castles. The breakfast spot had everything you could want and then some and couldn't have prettier views or nicer staff. The rooms in the castle are private and quaint and offer some exclusive views only to hotel guests. We woke up ate breakfast, walked as much of the wall as was possible - which is a lot, and then hit the road for the next leg of our trip.
