Stairs to top floor rooms fine for us, but could be an issue for some people. Shower took forever to heat up.

Location was excellent for early booking for Peña Palace. Comfy bed. Great value for money. Good breakfast.

It was the off season, so the outdoor space was not available and there was no common space available inside, but that is a minor detail. Otherwise, we enjoyed the peace and quiet of the property.

The location was up the hill, so nice and quiet, surrounded by trees. Parking was available on-site, which was convenient. We were able to walk into town and also enjoyed hiking to Pena Palace and the Moorish Castle. If you don’t want to hike, there are plenty of taxi options to get you wherever you want to go.

I don't mind walking but the road up is windy with narrow shoulders and cars go quite quickly. After dinner I had to walk down to the train station to find a taxi (it was only 9:30) as the historic district was completely shut down.

Lots of character. Jerome was awesome. I had to catch an early train and he made sure I was straight on timing and directions. He also put together some fruit and pastries since I wouldn't be there for breakfast.

Well located on hill about 30 minutes to beautiful town Center. Very large room overlooking garden. Continental breakfast good with friendly staff. Must walk up stairs to room. Grand old home. Wayne Montreal, Canada🇨🇦

There was an odd smell in our room. I very much like to have coffee available in the room without getting dressed to go down to common areas. There was only one chair to sit It was difficult driving to and from this chalet so we used taxi instead. We were able to walk down to town to eat but it was too far and uphill to walk back.

Our room was clean. Breakfast was fantastic. Old feel of the chalet was very nice. Liked the decor. The host obtained a taxi for us when needed and it came quickly.

Older. 2 flights of stairs to climb with bags. Can’t really walk to anywhere. Concierge spoke no English.

Beautiful area in the mountains. Rustic old mansion in lovely setting. Road was only 1 way so a long mountain drive out that was fun.

Shower room very tiny. Plumbing noisy . Hot water slow

Location perfect for daytime activities Breakfast xcellent Very welcoming host I particularly liked having a little fridge so I could buy and store fruit and yoghurt and not have to go out again to eat at night

Great location, quiet, interesting house and easy to walk to the Center of town and take an Uber back!

this is not the fault of the property, but good to know - the hotel is on the road up to Peña Palace, which is very busy. We didn’t drive to Sintra and the walk up the road to the hotel from town can be quite scary at times with the tour buses going by. There’s no sidewalk.

Lovely old guesthouse with a very nice breakfast. Comfortable room and the staff were very friendly and accommodating.

A lovely old house full of atmosphere . It’s a bit out of the town centre , up a steep hill on way to the Moorish Fort and Pena Palace . Fabulous view of the floodlit fort at night . There is frequent buses until c 6.30 pm , then plenty of taxis .

Not about the property, but sintra restaurants close very early as it is a tourist town.

Super charming, chalet with ample parking, lots of charm, and a wonderful breakfast.

Nothing to complain. Its very nice.

Top Location - perfect for a tour/visit in the Sintra area. Very nice old building; better and more charming than a new hotel.

The breakfast is very simple, with a very restrictive schedule. Otherwise, everything was great.

I had a great stay overall. The accommodation is very well located within Sintra, has free parking and it's a gorgeous chalet with a beautiful view over the Castelo dos Mouros.

Because it's an old building, difficult to add electric outlets, but one in the bathroom would be nice.

Quaint inn partway up the mountain to the Moorish Castle and Pena Palace. Wonderful to come back to a warm room after a chilly rainy day at Pena. Continental breakfast was excellent, lots to choose from. Internet was good and lots of parking spots for guests.

Shower drained slowly. Slow hot water heat up in top floor. No safe in the room. Unfortunately, theft is a problem in the Sintra area. Keep your valuables near.

Good location. Free parking. Good breakfast. Walkable to sights if you’re fit.

More information about where in realtion to old city the Chalet was located would have been helpful. Staff person spoke little English which made things harder.. Written material would have solved that issue. List of resturants and locations would have been nice. Transportation options would have been helpful. Folks at the castle/estate next door were very helpful when asked. We were luck they were there...

Breakfast was great. Room was good.

No elevator, and have your cash ready at check-in. The room was laid out well, but was lacking in accessible outlets. The light switches were a little confusing, but nothing too bad!

Absolutely phenomenal location but slightly confusing to get to, as it is on a restricted road. Still, I was pleasantly surprised at the location of the chalet. It was beautiful on the outside, very picturesque and lovely on the inside, cozy and traditional with delightful touches everywhere. The breakfast was lovely and the view of the Moorish Castle from the patio was outstanding! The foliage and surrounding garden as gorgeous. Incredibly peaceful! The owner was kind, helpful and friendly.
