Reviews and Ratings
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the staff went out of their way to make our stay memorable. The location was lovely, surrounded by a paradise-like garden, although the food wasn't the best. I enjoyed the plentiful and quality breakfast options and the great service provided.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spotlessly clean and very comfortable, with a spacious layout that we thoroughly enjoyed. The service was top-notch, with super kind and helpful staff going out of their way to assist. The location, although a bit challenging to find initially, turned out to be very safe and close to the center of Cascais, making it convenient for exploration. The dining experience exceeded my expectations with a variety of excellent, top-quality food options. The facilities were well-appointed, and the overall value for money was great.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were lovely, with totally unobstructed views of the gorgeous property and a great balcony, spacious, well-furnished, and decorated to a very high standard. The host was friendly and helpful. The service was exceptional, with staff always on hand to assist and provide great local recommendations. The location was excellent, peaceful, and central, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The dining was great, with a coffee machine in the room and a free welcome drink. Overall, a wonderful experience!
I felt like I discovered a hidden gem with beautiful gardens, swimming pools, and well-organized, spacious rooms. The hotel is a total delight, offering an honesty bar for everyone to enjoy. However, the only downside was the high temperatures reaching over 30 degrees during my stay.
My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were a bit smaller than expected and located next to the kitchen prep area, leading to some morning noise. However, the proximity to the sea and downtown was convenient, even though the garden view was partially obstructed. The service was exceptional, especially from the manager John Paul, who was hospitable and gracious. The location was great, within walking distance to downtown Cascais, making it easy to explore. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of savory dishes and pastries to enjoy.
The hotel offers tasteful decor with a beautiful bathroom and a great view of the garden. However, there was an issue with checking into an unprepared room, even though it was clean and had everything we needed.
