Overall a very good Hotel close to Cascais Town Centre and beach , overlooking the beautiful Marina. Breakfast was very good and staff very friendly throughout. Room was very spacious and modern. Would book again.
We had a lovely stay in this unusual and historical hotel.
Though we didn't use the pool, the gym and the spa, the facilities are there if you want them.
Our room was spacious and well equipped, albeit a tad dark.
The location and surroundings were perfect; away from the hub bub of the busy bar and restaurant area.
Beautiful room but overlooking a parking lot :(
Room safe wasn't anchored so anyone could just pick it up and walk out with it.
Breakfast is excellent with service to match.
Lovely art throughout the hotel.
A very nice bar with a homey feeling.
Excellent location.
The hotel has the ancient charm that’s great but the room floor by the bathroom was peeling off and the bathroom door was old, otherwise all was clean and great,
A fabulous hotel with a team of staff who just can't do enough for you. The breakfast is amazing and the hotel is spotless. The pools are great too. Small gym but ok if you want to maintain your fitness regime.
Mostly still good. Our 3rd time, and though quality is dropping, it’s still good.
Good:
Location is incredible, the best feature
Staff is very nice
Breakfast is nice. The pastries aren't what they used to be, but still decent
Should improve:
The bathroom was awkward. Unless you’re a contortionist, expect to struggle to get in the shower
The pool at the spa is unusable. Filled with small children and rowdy teenagers all day. Not very zen.
Hard to get bottles of water. Each time we asked the cleaning crew, we were told to ask the front desk
Getting the “once a stay” discount is a challenge. I honestly gave up trying, and just paid the full price, as it felt like the restaurant staff was genuinely unaware if any discount deals
