There were some little things that didn't work properly: the button of toilet flush got stuck frequently and the hot water was inconsistent. The glasses in the room were dirty. Also it was very sad for us to see so many fish confined in such a small pond in the garden.

The room was very comfortable and pleasant and the bathroom was spacious. It felt very quiet and it had wonderful design with natural materials. The garden and the view were beautiful. We had a great sense of privacy. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful bonsai garden and comfortable apartment in Sintra.

My only suggestion would be to consider offering an earlier check in time. 4pm check in felt a little late in the day.

We had a wonderful stay here. The service was great, and the hotel had such a nice, peaceful vibe. The bonsai tree garden was absolutely beautiful and serene. The location was also perfect for exploring the area.

Nothing

The garden was fantastic all the way around the apartment. The apartment had a Japanese feel to it. Never stayed anywhere like that before. There was koi fish swimming around the ponds. Rooms were clean. Had a small terrace for ourself. Staff were very friendly. They had the Bonsai shop were you get discount for renting with them.

The interior has seen better days, especially bathroom furniture appeared in a very used condition. It was quite humid in there too.

Nice, unique outside area to sit, it has a fully equipped kitchen and is quite spacious. Toiletries are available. Good location, easy parking.

The apartment is spacious and even more beautiful than in the photos. The garden is truly Zen, beautifully arranged, with plenty of koi fish you can feed. Great location – bus stop right in front, and an Uber to the center is about €6. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful, and we could leave our luggage at reception before check-in and after check-out.

The bed is not confortable in the raiz room, the shower curtain smell like dump but apart from that, great place.

The room is spacious. The bonsai garden and the turtles is such a good thing to have the quiet although a road is nearby

Stayed in August 2025

The house is close to the road, at night there is no traffic.

Lovely garden studio, we liked the bonsai garden and atmosphere.

​This is a truly magical place. The moment you arrive, you're transported straight to Japan. The bonsai collection is exquisite, and the entire atmosphere is stunningly beautiful. ​If you stay overnight, you get full access to the museum's serene garden. And make sure you see the carp and turtles—they're a special highlight all on their own!

Great place with unique atmosphere

Lack of privacy. You have large windows that lead right to the outside path. I did stay just for one night, so it was not a big issue because I was mostly away.

The location is good (20 minutes walk to Sintra). Parking is accessible and very convenient. Street parking. The Wifi is good, with a stable/unstable connection.

The gardens. The room itself

Excellent location and staff very friendly. The room had everything we needed and it was very easy to arrive and park the car. The wifi connection was good and stable. Really liked the outdoor area.

The bed was low and short: (tall husband,)and the room a bit damp if air conditioning wasn't on. Bathroom a bit run down, but clean. Quite a long walk down hill on busy street to old town.

The Zen garden was a lovely reprieve. The ability to park our car (and be near town) was important.

Overall a pleasant stay — the location was great and the staff friendly. One downside was that the room was very humid, which unfortunately also affected our luggage. With better ventilation or a dehumidifier, it would have been much more comfortable.

Lovely accommodation, amazing staff, we loved staying here

Some minor things, but they are typical "first world problems". Need to wait a bit for hot water in the shower. Door needed to be locked to stay closed, however this may not be the case for all rooms. These things vanish from your mind quickly with smiling turtles and Bonsai trees outside your door.

Our stay was a marvelous ensemble of comfort and peace. The first step in the museum you are greeted by multiple different shapes and sizes of bonsai trees with fountains softly bubbling in the background. The staff was very kind and helpful in every way. The room was a cozy cabin with a decent bed, refrigerator, climate control and private bathroom. At night it is very quiet and restful. We would sip our coffee in the morning in the chairs outside, waking up to fresh air, birds singing and koi and turtles swimming in the fountain. It's what the doctor prescribed to relieve stress. The location is just outside the Sintra national park with very easy access to buses, Uber and CP train station. Sintra historic downtown is a good 15 minute walk and if you're ambitious you could hike to the Moorish castle / Pena park in about 45 mins to avoid some of the crowds. Sintra is about 40 mins to Lisboa and roughly 25 mins to Cascais via train. You can also purchase a 24 hr transport pass that covers CP rail / metro and buses in Sintra and Lisboa for a very reasonable price - just ask at the CP station booth. That all said, we were very impressed with the establishment and the location. We actually extended our stay by several days and have 0 regrets. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Nice garden, friendly people, nice secluded apartment with everything you need. Equipped with air-conditioning too, which can be useful for when it gets as hot as when we were there.

Another one of those unique places. The apartment is huge and decorated in style. Located inside a Japanese Garden gives it a special touch.
