Hotel Pousada de Ourem - Fatima is in the medieval walled town of Ourem in Portugal.

It is located only twelve kilometres from Fatima, one of most famous pilgrimage centres in the world.

In 1917, The Virgin Mary appeared to three peasant children over a period of five months on the 13th day of each month.

As news of this miracle spread, many people travelled to Fatima each month to witness the apparition. On the final appearance an estimated 70,000 people witnessed the skies clearing and the sun becoming a swirling intense ball of fire with multi-coloured beams of light falling to earth.

Thousands of people still come on foot to this sacred place on the 13th day of each month.

The huge Basilica contains the tombs of two of the children, who did not survive to become adults. The third child, Lucia who became a Nun, died a few years ago, she was 98 years old and she is also buried in Fatima.

A chapel has been built on the site of the Apparitions and a larger basilica is now nearby and used for worship.

The story of Fatima is related in the local wax museum.

To the east of Ourem is the Convento do Cristo at Tomar.

Founded in 1162, it was the headquarters of The Knights Templar, and contains a 16 sided chapel, based on the design of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.

Tomar has been classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.

The magnificent walled town of Ourem and its castle takes visitors back to medieval times and is ideal for exploring on foot.

The castle was destroyed by Napoleon's troops but much has recently been restored.

The Pousada of Ourem was built from a cluster of houses of a bygone age and has been renovated with all contemporary comforts and facilities. As usual, the decor and service is of the high quality that is the tradition of the Pousada Group.

The accommodation comprises 14 standard bedrooms and 16 superior bedrooms, all with ensuite bathroom, air conditioning, Cable television, hair dryer, locker, bathing gowns, telephone and mini-bar.

Facilities include air conditioning, restaurant, bar, terrace, swimming pool, free wireless internet access in the public areas, family games and parking.

Dining in Portugal is usually very good and the restaurants of the Pousada group hotels are no exception. They offer a variety of dishes including a selection of local and regional specialities.

The Pousada Ourem also has conference facilities.

It offers breathtaking views of the Seica River valley and the Shrine of Fatima, and is an ideal base for exploring an area steeped in history.

The international airport at Lisbon (Lisboa) is approximately 141 kilometers from this Pousada of Portugal.

We enjoyed our one night stay at Pousada Conde de Ourem. The restaurant food and service were very good. Our room was comfortable and well maintained. The hillside setting provides some very nice views of the surrounding areas.

Enjoyed our two night stay in this, the first of our pousada experiences. Restaurant very good although a little on the expensive side. Only one other dining option in an Uchaida a short walk away which we enjoyed also. Hilltop location fantastic although at the end of our first day's drive in Portugal the approach oveer the last few kilometres was a bit of a challenge, particularly the last few hundred metres, but well worth the effort. Staff helpful as we found in other pousadas.

no lift to the room (some problems for the luggage) but our our stay was pleasant. Great helpful staff. We expected the typical Portuguese food, hardly ever found in the pousads. Perhaps the quality / price of food was not to be still living good. Pousada strongly recommend, especially with the favorable price of the Golden Age Passport

Not up to expectations. No one at reception desk to welcome us. We had to go find them after 10 minutes or so..no bell or bellman. No assistance with luggage. No view from our room was adequate but nothing special...there appeared to be only three or four other guests, so we would have liked a nicer room. Restaurant was basic, nothing special and decor very ordinary...fortunately we were only there one night. Just not up to speed for what we experienced in other Portuguese towns, although the locaton (Ourem) itself was charming, welcoming and a pleasant respite.
