A nice splurge!

When you stay at a castle or palace in Europe, you want to feel the history. This palace gives you a great feel! Room is wonderfully comfortable, and after you arrive and clean up, you can stroll the well-apointed and preserved rooms and hallways. We did not try the restaurant for dinner as we wanted to try places in town, but the breakfast was stellar. When booking here and driving, you may want to get directions from the hotel if you're driving in at night as the local streets can be a bit challenging to navigate and are one-way, but no biggie.

For the cost of this hotel, I expected a bit more. I was traveling with my friend and had requested a room with 2 twin beds and got a confirmation from the hotel that the request was confirmed. But unfortunately, they did not have a room with twin beds for us and told me that I had requested a double bed - which I didn't. I had to show the email i received from the hotel staff member with the confirmation from the hotel o show that I had indeed asked for 2 beds. In itself, that wasn't a big deal, but I thought they might have showed they were sorry some other way - perhaps a bit off of the bill or - because we dined at the fancy restaurant in the hotel - a glass of champagne or something. But it was pretty much like we're sorry and that's it. We spent over 600 for one night with dinner at their restaurant. And while we were there, the power went out in Sintra - so crazy! Which I realize isn't there fault, but still added to the overall experience - thankfully their backup generator came on. Some guests didn't have hot water! This also isn't the best place to stay in terms of getting to the city center - it's a one way street and to go around to get back to the city center takes like 50 min via car. So be prepared to walk. Going down the big hill is easy - coming up the hill is not. Sintra is still an amazing place though. The hotel does seems like it could use a little refresh in the decor too. I think the property just changed owners - perhaps that's on their roadmap.

Palacio de Seteais is one of the loveliest hotels we have stayed at. The location is fantastic, the palace is beautiful and the service is top-notch. The front desk staff was very welcoming when we arrived and helped us to book a trip around Sintra. The spa is also wonderful -- Catia is so kind and creates a great atmosphere for relaxation. We truly loved our experience and hope to come back soon!

While the grounds were very nice and the staff quite friendly, we were very disappointed for the price we paid for the night. If you are looking to sweat off the Portuguese wine while sleeping, this is your place. I’ve never been so hot at a hotel and the AC was not operational. We managed to get a window open but had to use my shoe to prop it open. Finally to top it off we got very little sleep given our neighbour was testing the limits of apnea and snoring. If it’s not the peacocks crowing 24/7 then it’s staff having full conversations at 2AM just as you fall asleep. One more thing, don’t count on any shuttle service and plan on paying €15-20 for an Uber or the 20 minute hike up the steep hill. Disappointed given the high price!!
