My stay at Pousada Palácio de Queluz was, without question, the best hotel experience I have ever had in Europe.
From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with genuine warmth and exceptional hospitality. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate my requests and helped me navigate the area from day one.
The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful. Located directly across from the stunning Palácio de Queluz, it feels like stepping back in time. The rooms are spacious, elegantly furnished, and full of historic charm, with high ceilings and incredibly comfortable beds. At the same time, the bathrooms are modern and thoughtfully designed.
A special thank you to João at reception, who warmly welcomed me and shared the fascinating history of the hotel and the palace. Every single person I encountered, from the breakfast staff to the housekeeping team , was kind, attentive, and genuinely caring.
As a lovely surprise, I was welcomed with a bottle of wine, which made my stay feel even more special.
I travel frequently, and by the end of most trips I’m usually eager to return home. This was the first time I found it difficult to leave a hotel. Portugal has many hidden gems, and Pousada Palácio de Queluz is truly one of them.
I recommend it wholeheartedly and cannot wait to return.

We like to stay in hotels settled in historic buildings like the ones of the Spanish Paradores. The Pousada reminded us of it.
The spacious rooms in a quiet ambiance with antic furniture a fire place, piano and oil paintings on the walls were appealing to us.
The room also had several English language TV channels to catch up on latest news.
The breakfast on the house was excellent and the best we had on our entire 4 week trip in Spain and Portugal.
However, on a Sunday night there were limited dining options in walking distance from the hotel.

A character property in a quiet location outside of Lisbon centre opposite the beautiful Palácio Nacional de Queluz.


Sightseeing in Lisbon or Sintra is possible by train but the station is a 14 minute uphill walk away from the hotel (or 4.05 euros by taxi). A car would be preferable and there is plenty of parking.

We had a good room with very comfortable beds, and a great breakfast with excellent service.

There is a very limited choice of restaurants nearby, especially on a Sunday. We ended up at MacDonalds.

The property was quite exceptional knowing some of the history, easy to imagine royalty living there so many years ago.

We found some understaffing but nothing disturbing. The receptionist made us drinks at the bar because there was not a bartender at the time. I imagine that it is only hotel guests who would use the bar so this is understandable. The breakfast room beyond the bar is more than adequate and pleasant and the breakfast itself fulfilled anyone's morning requests. There is no dining room but there are several local restaurants, one in particular, the Retiro de Mina, that serves \"excellent\" food with wonderful staff.

A real gem

Loved this tastefully restored Pousada in immaculate condition. Spacious room and bathroom with separate area for toilet. Quiet location. Castle and restaurant are located across the street. There is a beautiful castle garden you can stroll in. Admission required to visit castle and garden.
The restaurant has terrace overlooking the garden where we had a light lunch and drinks. We were pleasantly surprised to receive a delicious chef’s taster. However, dinner in the restaurant was a disappointment. My lamp chops consisted mainly of gristle and bone and a huge portion of bitter tasting spinach. Potatoes were flavourful though.

Overall enjoyable, though showing age in slightly frayed edges on fabrics and furnishings.

Check in was nice - we were accommodated although we arrived early. I am not a fan, however, of having to sleep in two single beds pushed together as opposed to a double bed, especially when I specified when making my reservation that we needed a double bed. Also, if you’re looking to dry/straighten your hair in this hotel, just forget about it. There was not one outlet in our bathroom. On the bright side, there was built in music in the bathroom?

Treat yourself royally

It's a CASTLE! Okay, it's really the servants quarters but, hey, it's the ROYAL servants quarters! HUGE room! Incredibly comfortable beds. The decor is very simple, but who stays in the room all day? The best part of the stay was sleeping with the double casement windows open and waking to the songs of birds singing. Beginning each morning with breakfast in the sunny yellow tiled dining room was a treat; again, nothing fancy but tasty and satisfying. Enjoyed visiting the built-in theatre, which now serves as a guest library.

Disappointing

We stayed in and/or toured several other pousadas while in Portugal and this was not up to the standards of the other places we stayed/saw. It needs to be updated and upgraded with new carpet and lighting in the guest rooms. The place also seemed under staffed and as such at breakfast the single person helping the guests was too frequently overwhelmed. The restaurant for the pousada, across the street at the palace was terrible. Poor food and while the service was OK it again was under staffed. Great space but with very few people there for dinner it seemed dead.
