    nothing no complaints at all

    Breakfast was wonderful and cooked to order along with a huge buffet. The staff was fantastic and served us port by the fire in the afternoon. The Lawrences was perfectly located as well.

    Location is excellent. Sintra is a small village surrounded by streams and woods. You can walk to restaurants and shopping areas from this hotel, which is situated by the forest. Staff if fabulous.

    Food was ok, with some odd choices of accompaniments, but I think this was largely Portuguese cuisine rather than the hotel kitchen

    Old fashioned but discreet, and rather lovely

    Limited parking and now you cannot drive a private car in the old town or to Peña Palace. Parking is impossible in the main town area. Even if you can drive it’s incredibly hard and nerve racking. This is a Sintra problem, not the hotel. Streets are narrow, winding and busy with traffic.

    Location is good being very central, walk to main square and many sites. Comfortable, large room, great breakfast. Staff are excellent!!

    With the property being so old, it doesn’t feel as clean as some other hotels. However, I still thought the room was well taken care of while maintaining its rustic charm. At one point, the bathroom smelled a little funny.

    Great location, nice staff, good breakfast, lots of history in the building and beautiful views.

    Nothing comes to mind

    It’s a beautiful location, amazing views across the valley and not far from the centre but far enough so that it’s not too busy. The hotel is also the oldest in the Iberian peninsula so lots of history (Lord Byron stayed there)

    We were upgraded to the Lord Byron suite which had a spacious, charming sitting room with a balcony and great views. The location at one end of the main street in the old, upper village was a perfect place from which to walk to the Quinta da Regaleira and for the wooded trail hike up past the Castelo da Mours and on to Pena Palace. The breakfast buffet offerings the day of our stay were limited however we had options off an a la carte menu which were very well prepared and nicely served.

    Outstanding service of the staff. Clean and proper rooms, with a bath . Suites and some rooms have magnificent views . Friendly staff , all very helpful. Diner is a must! High quality and the Gents who did the service in the restaurant are truly stars in service and etiquette. High standard, formal and friendly. Leg of lamb super tender, and the desserts .... O.m.g.. never had a cake 🍰 and pie like that.. And breakfast.. do it! Youll feel like a time traveler with damast napkins, fruits, cakes, scrambled eggs , pie, toast.. and so on and on.. 10+ on all points.

    Things are old. and I understand it’s an old hotel and that is the style but I mean as in some things are old and and noisy and broken. Also I paid more for a room with a bath tub and it wasn’t working. they should have made me a discount…

    decoration and style. everything was clean
