Search hotels in Caldas da Rainha

a town with character and he’s just the right size for me. It has a pretty centre with so much within walking distance and with the advantage of a bike I could explore the edges of the city that seemed to have most large stores as one would expect for a town of that size. On my bike this visit I spent hours getting lost and found on the many small backstreets where I always found people to talk to and redirect me when lost. A friendly place. Great connections by bus and train, only an hour from Lisbon. And then a fabulous coast to explore by public transport or bicycle. Lots of great places to sit on taking the scenery from town cafés to country restaurants I love it. For me. Caldas da Rainha really has the wow factor

There are lots of bars and great restaurants. The shopping mall was very nice and there are more shops in the town. I highly recommend the restaurant Real Balcao No 5. for dinner. I also had a simple, but great lunch at Casa Artero - try the Bife Alcatra with local red wine!!

Caldas is a treasure! It’s a small, unassuming town, with gorgeous cobbled streets, a very large segment of walking streets in old town, a very beautiful park to meander in, and a wonderful outdoor market open every morning of the year. I found it and its residents delightful and welcoming. I left my backpack in a store and of course it was right there waiting for me behind the checkout, protected by store employees. I so love Portugal and the warmth and charm of the Portuguese people, This town is a beautiful place to stay if you want to do a very easy one day trip to historic Obidos! I highly recommend staying here. Train station is a tiny walk to town.

A great town to visit. A good transition point for further travels to closeby towns: Obidos, Fox de Arelho, Peniche and other further towns: Lisbon, Porto, Aveiro. Caldas da Raina itself is also worth visit, beautiful buildings, great park with old building of hospital for evening and all day walks.

Staff are superb - always on hand and helpful Bar is nice Shower water pressure is great and has a bath Restaurant chef is simply excellent, must go for dinner there Breakfast buffet has a very wide selection and open 7.30-10.30am Parking is under the hotel via the LaVie/Hotel entrance Walking to Caldas Rainha shops and restaurants is easy and a few minutes walk Big shopping mall is right next door Different types of pillows are on the bed to suit everyone. Have to purchase the coffee pods after your first night, and get your own bottled water after the first night Excellent street market about 5 minutes walk away - a must see Tips: Get a plastic multi-use car park ticket to avoid having to get a stamp from reception every time you exit if you are staying more than one or two days, just more convenient.

Clean, quiet, and safe. Wonderful to walk in Dom Carlos I Parque. The trees, flowers, and plants are simply spectacular. The open air or farmer's market has a super selection of fresh produce and flowers. Definitely eat at Casa Antero, the best restaurant in town for over 50 years. Be sure to visit the ceramics museum, the Jose Malhou museum, and the Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro ceramics factory shop.
