Wonderful and welcoming host. Thank you, Douglas, for the hospitality and the information about the area and the Jeep tour. The breakfasts were delicious, as were the afternoon treat times. It was a very comfortable and unique place to stay. It seemed truly Portuguese.

Great stay in Sintra

Great location in Sintra with nice rooms, common areas and other amenities. The laundry appliances do need to be cleaned but other than that, our short stay was wonderful. Breakfast was delicious and the complimentary wine and beer was a nice touch.

Nightmare check in

Check in was a nightmare! There’s nobody to check you in at the property and they didn’t send us a code for the door. I had to jump the 6 foot fence to get in and speak to a maid who didn’t speak English. I would not return to this place.

Frustrating check-in

Arriving into Sintra we were extremely disappointed with the check in process. Prior to arriving we did not receive any instructions on check-in and had to borrow locals phone in order to contact the property group. Despite calling multiple times staff did not answer our calls and it was extremely frustrating to get into our room. Although the check in process was bad the hotel was nice. Rooms were clean and staff working in the kitchen were extremely friendly. I would recommend this hotel if not for the poor management.

The best Bed & Breakfast i’ve ever experienced. I have much appreciation to all the staff and Helena, who prepared fresh local food every morning and was very friendly and helpful with any questions we had. She even packed breakfast for me and my wife the night before we left since we were leaving for breakfast the next day. Thank you!

Lovely greeting upon arrival with lots of information about the area and how to get around. The room was really nice, and well stocked with things we may need. The breakfast was enjoyable. Only downsides were that it was slightly out of the way (which helped with noise, but added to already busy walking days), and the shower wasn’t in perfect condition. Overall, the brightness of the room and the willingness of the staff to go above and beyond expectations made this a great stay!
