Hotel 3 Bintang di Palmela

Nella cittadina di Palmela si trova questa graziosa struttura che offre formule diverse di soggiorno. Noi abbiamo scelto una comoda suite all’ultimo piano con soppalco e balconcino arredato da cui si godeva una bellissima vista sul castello di Palmela. L’accoglienza è stata gentile e le proprietarie molto disponibili, risolvendo prontamente un piccolo problema che si era creato. Ottima anche la pulizia. Materasso comodissimo e camera confortevole con piccolo frigo e macchina nespresso rifornita giornalmente. Non c’è parcheggio privato, ma nelle piazzette del paese o lungo le strade si trova comunque posto. Strategico per visitare l’Alentejo, il Parquet Natural de Arrábida, Setúbal, Sesimbra ecc…

The apartments are nice and comfortable with pleasant quite surrounds and the restaurant is very pleasant, continental breakfast is included in the price, free Wi-Fi in the restaurant and bar area, a car really is an essential if you want to discover the surrounding area, 55 km from Lisbon and 10 km from Setubal, a taxi from Lisbon Airport around 60 Euros. Excellent base for explore the region, Palmela Castle, Setubal city for shopping and supermarket for all your needs, from Setubal you can get the ferry boat to Troia Peninsula complex and beach, a visit to Lisbon is a most, you can get a train from Lisbon to Sintra or Estoril, a visit to Belem to the famous ”Pastel de Nata” (custard tart) Overall a good place to spend a quit holiday, I recommend the Palmela Apartments. We drove from Newcastle to Plymouth and then Brittany Ferries to Santander(Spain) and from Santander to the Palmela Apartments is a 7 hour drive. I do recommend these apartments.

I visited Portugal on a group tour that included stays at three pousadas. A big takeaway from my experience is that pousadas are remarkably variable. Pousada Mosteiro de Guimaraes, was fantastic, while Conimbriga Hotel Do Paço was abysmal. This one, Pousada Castelo Palmela, was somewhere in-between. I recommend you choose your pousada carefully. The positives of Pousada Castelo Palmela are many and significant. It’s a magnificent building with fantastic views. I recommend you save some time to explore the fortress the hotel is part of, and, when weather permits, you go to the west side of the pousada’s grounds to enjoy a lovely sunset. However, the staff of this pousada could improve. I got the impression that the place was understaffed, and not all staff were fully trained. Dining was disappointing; the pousada’s restaurant has limited capacity and books up quickly, and there are few if any local restaurants to use as an alternative. To solve this, you could book half board, or reserve your dinner table well in advance. However, I don’t recommend that because, as well as being small relative to the number of guest rooms, the restaurant isn’t very good. My dinners here were frankly awful – uninspired and badly served, often cold. I recommend you go grocery shopping and bring food with you when you return to the hotel, or use Uber Eats to have your dinner delivered (as I did).

방에 취사 할 수 있도록 주방도구와 계수대 인덕션이 있습니다. 라면끓여먹기 좋습니다 ㅎㅎ 다만 렌트카 없으면 생활에 있어 불편하니 꼭 차량 렌트 하셔야 됩니다
