Sintra Marmòris Palace

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel not far from the historic district, an easy walk to restaurants and the National Palace. Room was clean but a bit odd - we had a lovely terrace with nice seating and outdoor kitchen and shower. Shared the terrace with some peacocks. Breakfast was excellent and each evening there was wine and cheese on the hotel terrace. Area near the hotel was nicely maintained but the extensive gardens were in disrepair, presumably from the awful storms last January. Would be even better if the garden paths were open."

ibis Lisboa Sintra

6/10 Okay

"Parking is great, underground. Though does get crowded. Above ground is limited. Scarcity of waste baskets , throughout. A new water cooler is being installed in lobby, which is great. Bathrooms are so so. They implemented this one piece, PVC shower, toilet and sink combo unit so as to not have to deal with the plumbing - older building. Main issue is the stench from sewer, which appears from time to time. Otherwise, the rooms are very clean and functional. Still only one waste basket in bathroom. Location can't be beat if you're there for a surgery, or loved one staying at Hospital. CUF is directly across street."

Arribas Sintra Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a WONDERFUL stay at Arribas Sintra Hotel. The sound of waves on the beach was so soothing. The buffet breakfast was delicious, The staff were well-trained, polite and courteous and friendly. The place was clean and modern with an awesome veranda overlooking the ginormous pool. We loved the pool, lukewarm and clean and gorgeous. The beds were the best of this vacation. The food in the resraurant was great. Memorable stay in every way. We taxied into Sintra for a tuk-tuk tour, but the beach was its own reward. We'd love to come back. Most highly recommended. "
