“1970s special”
The air conditioning did not work in our room, and the lights were not functioning in the hall. Also, there was no parking available, and this was a big factor in choosing this hotel. A Mercedes was parked in 2 spaces, and we would have been able to put our small car into one of the spaces anyway. But, mysteriously, the space was taken as our car was on the way to the garage. The garage door can only be opened by the men at Reception. Best thing about this hotel is the location, but not sure it is worth it. Don't understand how the town of Sintra allowed such an ugly building right next to the Palace.
“Trivoli Sintra Hotel”
The Trivoli is located right in the heart of the historic center of Sintra. I was a pleasant 15 to 20 minute walk from the train station in Sintra. Don't be put off by the exterior of the hotel, old modern, the inside is beautifully maintained and comfortable with amazing views from the lobby area. Dont miss the sunsets from the lobby terraces! We would definitely choose this hotel again.
“Excellent Location in Sintra”
The Tivoli Sintra Hotel was in a great location in Sintra, right behind the Palace. The hotel staff were very nice and friendly. The hotel could use some refurbishing. It was faded elegance (which I like) but a bit too faded. The bed in our room was a double bed (a bit bigger than a twin). My husband and I asked for a room with 2 beds for the second night. The views from our room of the valley were gorgeous. The hotel was reasonably priced for this type of luxury. Dinner in the hotel was very good, excellent potato leek soup. The town of Sintra was closed down tight after 7:00 PM (in early June) so the hotel restaurant was only 1 of a few places open for dinner.
“Excellent Location to tour Sintra & area”
We wanted to tour Sintra and the surrounding area. The Tivoli Sintra is perfectly located, directly across the street from the Sintra Palace, and very easy to get to via train/bus/car. One can easily pick up the tour buses that will take you to the surrounding Moorish Castle and other palaces. The hotel has just a great view of the valley below Sintra from the restaurant or bar, including a balcony. I would not rate our room "4 star", but it was quite acceptable. The morning breakfast was very generous compared to most hotels.
“A really magical place”
Loved this hotel in the heart of romantic Sintra. They gave us a beautiful two room suite although we had only booked a double. I'd go back in a second.
“Helpful Staff”
I left jewelery at the hotel. It was found by staff & the hotel went out of their way to promptly send it back to me at no charge.
“EXTREMELY RUDE & UNTRAINED PERSONNEL”
GIVEN WORLD HOTEL STANDARDS: 1. Rivoli Sintra is NOT a 4 star hotel 2. The personnel is untrained. i.e. i walked into the hotel and stopped by the reception, which is together with a bar, to take pictures from the window-THE BAR HOST LITERALLY YELLED AT ME BECAUSE I HAD A BOTTLE OF WATER PURCHASED FROM OUTSIDE..!!! 2.THE ROOMS do not have pressing boards or iron, so I asked for it at the reception, BUT the hotel would not lend me one. Therefore,I had to ask THEM to press my dress within 5hrs of my event; the hotel CHARGED ME 22.50 EUROS (US$30) to do the service which they called "urgent". 3. The overall hotel is screaming for a serious renovation.
