Ribatejo hotel rooms a the Independent

"This is a large and luxurious hotel that's a great base for exploring the area. The rooms are comfortable and huge, the staff helpful and competent, the facilities (pool, pool table, etc.) really nice (the indoor pool is quite something, though we didn't need it in the summer). Breakfast delicious in the Portuguese manner---we never tried the restaurant for dinner but it looked fine. The Templar castle/monastery is well worth a visit in itself, and Tomar has some nice restaurants. And Coimbra, Nazare, and the monasteries at Batalha and Alcobaca are all within about an hour's drive."

"Wonderful hotel with an awesome pool, outdoor seating for cocktails with a spectacular view & great dinner & breakfast!!! Up on a hill overlooking the river & plains below!"

"Great place. Rooftop bar best view in town. Tons of dining options"

"This hotel was wonderful. Cozy, comfortable and quiet, centrally located with friendly and helpful staff. Recommend wholeheartedly!"

"a bit old in infraestructure and lack of plugs for work in the room"

"Elegant surroundings, great view. Top notch staff. Dinner was excellent."

"Clean, amazing breakfast, friendly staff"

"Other than extremely difficult and confusing arrangement of passage ways inside the hotel, our stay was very good. Fantastic bed, shower room, and view from our balcony. Excellent breakfast, easy registration and checkout added to our satisfaction. But that maze of hallways pulls our review down a notch."

"This is one of the very few hotels in the region. The bed was very hard. The staff was pleasant and attentive. "
