Elegant old world charm, friendly front reception staff and excellent breakfast with hot and cold choices. Cannot park in the area as restricted use in old town. Getting an Uber to drop you off and walk a short way to hotel, even for seniors is ok.

An absolute gem in Sintra. A beautiful hotel, our room was stunning with an enormous bathroom. The bed was divine and the room was quiet and spotless. There is parking available (see photo). Staff were very friendly and welcoming and are incredibly hospitable and proud of the hotel. Breakfast was fantastic and it is in a convenient location. I loved this hotel.

The room was okay. The good things were that there was a large bathroom. Things that could be improved are larger nightstands, and better linens for the bed. There was a smell of cigarettes in the room but was able to ventilate by opening the doors.

Small, boutique hotel that had numerous cosy seating areas and lounges. We were upgraded to a suite and had a separate lounge. Just beautiful in every way. Black out shutters, comfy bed, clean bathroom. Host was super friendly and helpful. Restaurant food out rounding and much better than local village.
Couldn’t get a more perfect location. Walk down the hill 5 minutes to the village of Sintra and up the hill 5 mins to the Iniation Well and Palace. Cannot fault this place.

What a beautiful little place. I had read about how difficult parking is in Sintra. We pulled up in front of the hotel where there were four spots sanctioned off. We were told it's OK to park there over night. The hotel was quaint, clean and the staff was beyond hospitable. This hotel is centrally located and you couldn't ask for a better place to stay.

Loved the history of the hotel, the history is maintained yet was still modern. The bar area was really enjoyable after a long drive to get there. 3 hotel parking spaces available, we got lucky and got one. Would stay there again.

Stay here when you visit Sintra
The is a beautiful hotel. Historic, but with all the modern amenities a guest would need. The guest rooms are well appointed, and our room had a fantastic view of the forest. The staff is friendly and helpful.
We had dinner here and it was delicious!
Parking is available, which is a real plus in Sintra.
