“Little Gem on Cascais”

Little gem on Cascais Coast. We loved the staff, breakfasts and cleaning! Very nice price for the area. Hope to return soon🙏❤️ Near the public transports , Casino, restaurants and to the beach. Cascais is only 3 minutes by train. Sintra and Lisbon are very easy to reach from there.

“Fantastic location, basic 2*”

Stayed here 4 nights end of sept for a wedding. It was ok priced for the time and I did just want a base and place for my bags.. thankfully Firstly cars can’t stop outside so I had to drag my case down the cobbly street to areive at reception, I arrived before check in, just, and my room was ready 101 on the first floor. Cons. The room is basic, and I mean basic, no fridge, the bed was like my dining table, not even a glass in the room for my drinks let alone a small kettle etc. Plugs near bed and mirrors but in really awkward positions so you have to move furniture. The walls, ceilings and floors are paper thin, I could hear people above me on the toilet let’s just say. And the doors.. you have to practically slam them when you leave so there’s no chance of being quiet. The thing that annoyed me the most was the lighting! Or the lack of it, in the room there were only side lights at the bed, no ceiling light or lamp on the desk so it was extremely dark sometimes and the bathroom, no lighting near the mirror. I didn’t go for breakfast after reading other reviews so can’t comment. Pros. Clean and decent sized rooms. Great location for Estoril and Cascais, the wedding was at the stunning Forte Da Cruz and that was practically behind the hotel. Also fantastic for the train as that’s behind too, 40 mins into Lisbon its self. Polite enough staff didn’t really have much interaction with them. And that’s all I’m afraid I would personally pay a little more next time and stay somewhere a little nicer. Or if I had too, definitely ask for a high floor so you get a better view, however rooms at the back with the view of the beach, also have the train so more noise! Catch 22! Overall not a horrific stay but wouldn’t return.
