The Pousada was built over 25 years ago in a part of the 16th century St Philips castle which was built on the orders of Philip II of Spain (later Philip I of Portugal) who employed the Italian military architect, Filipo Terzi. The fortress gives a commanding view across the sea and the surrounding countryside of the Serra da Arrabida, a mountain protecting the bay of Setubal and the mouth of the river Sado. Sao Felipe has a rambling layout on different levels.

“Extremely cool!”
This is a beautiful hotel in a stunning location. The bed was extremely comfortable and we appreciated the heavy blanket on an unusually windy night.

“stunning location and a fine converted building”
Set in a stunning location on a hill, next to a castle and church, the converted governor's residence offers comfortable rooms with impressive views around the region. it is also very convenient for the airport in Lisbon/Lisboa -we used it on the way back from the Algarve

Food and facilities up to the usual high pousada standard. We particularly appreciated the dog-friendly attitude of the very friendly and helpful staff.

Pousada Mosteiro de Guimaraes, was fantastic, while Conimbriga Hotel Do Paço was abysmal. This one, Pousada Castelo Palmela, was somewhere in-betwe... more
