Casa Holstein Quinta de São Sebastião is a beautiful survivor of the golden age of Sintra mansions. The grounds are stunning and the location is fantastic. The morning breakfast was a continental type of high quality ingredients, however after a few day it did get tedious. The hotel is in need of a major refreshment, most of the pretty antiques in our room were sagging and stained. We really enjoyed the ensuite bath and extra room that we had access too. The staff was friendly and English was not a problem, however they will sometimes disappear. I think like many small hotels the staff is stretched thin. Our initial plan was to spend the week in Sintra, but when the internet failed after our first night we decided to move to Lisbon and we left on Thursday. Although the internet failure was not necessarily the hotels fault we found it to be a deal breaker as everything in the Sintra area requires planning and timed tickets. The staff was very understanding and let us check out three days early with a refund. I would stay again, its a beautiful survivor of the grand mansions of Sintra with a great location and romantic grounds and views of the wonderful Sintra area.

A little confused upon arrival…. Difficult to determine how to access the property. However, provided you follow the instructions provided, someone will open the gate. Parking was secure (and plentiful). We were able to leave our bags early in the morning and went back later to check in…. They even took our bags to our room. Property is perfectly situated… short walk to restaurants, train station and attractions. Staff were amazing, and breakfast was phenomenal.

Ligger vackert i Sintra med en fantastisk trädgård. Historiens vingslag överallt och man finner ro på området. Dock skulle rummen behöva uppdaterat och renoveras, det känns som att det är lite eftersatt. Personalen hade lite svårt med engelskan, så man hade lite dålig kontakt med dem.

The hotel is very quiet and peaceful, yet located close enough to historic center. Lots of nature at your footsteps. The breakfast is perfect for light eaters. The room is what is expected from a historical inn. The only downside is the availability of on site staff. This was not a major problem but when arriving you need a gate code to access parking.

This is one of the most beautiful hotels we’ve ever stayed at. We were sick so we spent most of our time in the hotel room and it was so comfortable and quiet. The staff was so nice and even moved us to another room when there was a leaky roof. The breakfast was yummy. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Do be aware that it’s quite a walk uphill when you leave.

Overall a good location, spacious room and a property with lots of potential. Staff was efficient, though front desk was not consistently staffed. Continental breakfast was nice & well organized but not spectacular. Our shower had a broken door and the room could have used a good cleaning, as the floors were gritty. Be aware that if you have a room on the ground level, the building is not well insulated so you will hear every footstep should a guest be in the second floor room above you. A very good location and excellent choice for independent travellers.

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Holstein. It's a little tricky to get to, just keep going down the hill through the big green gates. There is lots of room for parking inside the gates. It's very old but very well maintained. The surrounding property must be lovely in spring and summer. The Royal Suite is very nice. There are very good restaurants nearby. Use the nearby bus service to get to the palaces. Driving to them is not helpful because the roads are closed to personal cars. The staff at Casa Holstein was excellent!

Great stay, great breakfast. However, breakfast not served until 9am - that’s too late for tourists planning to take in a full day of Sintra’s many historic sites. Plus, no coffee available in the room, just tea, so early risers like me have to leave the premises to seek out a cafe, or wait…. The room we stayed in (#7) felt very damp and humid, and running the A/C didn’t seem to help much. Finally, room #7 needs a new small fridge - current one gurgles and hums very loudly and pts locally non-stop. Overall though, a beautiful hotel and room as well as surrounding gardens, and attentive staff.
