My stay at the hotel was a mix of ups and downs. The rooms didn't quite match the pictures on the website, but they did offer a lovely calm view of Sintra. While I was expecting a touch of luxury, they turned out to be more on the basic side.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms, although not as depicted on the website, provided a wonderful calm view over Sintra. They were more basic than luxurious.

Service

6.0

The service maintained the old 19th-century style of the whole facilities, with small charming common rooms. However, there were communication issues as some staff hardly spoke English and struggled to provide directions to the parking spot.

Location

8.0

The location's best aspect is its enviable proximity to the center of Sintra, making it convenient for exploring the city. However, during busy times in Sintra, the traffic can be a hassle, and the shared parking situation with street visitors is not ideal.

Dining

5.0

The dining options left much to be desired, with poor quality and limited choices. While the rooms were charming, the food at the hotel's cafe didn't live up to expectations.

Facilities

7.0

The facilities offered were varied, including room service, car hire, and dry cleaning. However, the overall dining experience and the lack of clear room directions affected the quality of stay.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were beautifully decorated with a calming view over Sintra, although they are showing their age. The service was friendly but a bit slow at times. The location was fantastic, just a couple of minutes from the city center, and the dining experience was pleasant overall with room for improvement. The facilities were adequate.
