Sintra hotels

A lovely place to stay very close to the fantastic fairy tale gardens of the palace next door

Exceptionally clean, with accommodating staff. Steps away from the National Palace, and tour bus stops. Minutes from the train station, but don't try to walk it with luggage. Restaurants, and shops just around the corner.

This is a very pleasant hotel set in the town centre. The views from the restaurant and our bedroom were absolutely stunning - in one direction we could look all along the valley, and in the other direction the Moorish Castle (lit at night) stood above us. Quite breathtaking. Reasonable breakfast, and very good room rate. One downside is that the hotel states there is parking, which there is, directly outside the hotel, but only for about 12 cars. We had to park in a car park, which although not too far away, was up a couple of VERY steep sets of stairs - we got a taxi to take us back to the car when we left! The Palace of Pena, Moorish Castle and the Palacio Nacional de Sintra are all 'must sees', and are easy to reach either on foot, or by a circular bus ride. Not too busy during our visit at the end of September, but I would imagine it is very crowded in Sintra at holiday times.

My friends and I (4 women) stayed at the hotel in late April. First impression is that it looks very old from the outside. Once we went in, it was very impressive. Beautiful lobby with comfortable sitting area and a lovely dining room where breakfast was served. Dinner is served in a beautiful dining room in the palace right across the street. The staff could not have been more accommodating and polite. They also all spoke English very well. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.

Lovely hotel only one complaint. The road noise on those rooms facing the road are in for a surprise. Earplugs supplied to help but buses feel like they going to crash right into the room. This unpleasantness aside the staff is great just ask for an inside room.

I visited pengha longa for a holiday of relaxation and exploration. From the outset, I was treated with the greatest hospitality from the reception staff to the housekeepers. This is a hotel that surpasses expectation. Clean, efficient and amazing. The choice of restaurants is fantastic with the tapas Arola - top of the list. There is a choice of three swimming pools, jacuzzi, sauna, gym as well as a spa and golf course. I was in easy reach of the local culture with Sintra a mere taxi ride and Lisbon - a short train journey along the beautiful Atlantic Coast. This was my first visit to Portugal and I have now been spoilt by Pengha Longa. I will be back.

I'm Portuguese and decided to visit Sintra for a weekend. It was low season, so the town was really quiet. But either in winter or summer, Sintra keeps its aura so a trip is always worthwhile.

Everybody was very friendly. Bus stops next to hotel.

Stayed for one week staff all very friendly & helpfull. Didn't eat there as there was a supermarket and Mc Donald's just a 2 min walk away. location is ok it is on a busy road but didn't hear it from inside the hotel. I would stay there agian it's good value at €33 a night that's what I paid. It's very modern & clean just no swimming pool but this is like a travel inn.

Great choice for location to important sites. Beautiful rooms with lovely (but a little creaky) wooden floors. Breakfast was scrumptious! Helpful pleasant staff.
