"Christina was very helpful getting us oriented. We were a little disappointed that the breakfast part was not actually at the Chalet, it was up at the Saudade cafe, a short walk away. Also, there was no free coffee on premises, only tea. Why is this? Bed was comfortable and room was quiet at night, as long as guests above went to bed. Floors very creaky. This location is not very close to area attractions or old town, so there is a lot of walking on very steep hills. You need to be in shape! "

"I knew it was madness even to drive TO Sintra. But the hotel was very helpful in trying to help me manage the downsides of coming by car. They advised I park the car immediately and use Ubers, taxis, or TukTuk to get around locally. Check! They had awkward, but OK off-site parking in an enclosed lot a few minutes walk from the hotel. Not great! The keypad activated door closed with us inside the lot. One [70 ] person had to climb over the enclosure wall to let the others out! [No keypad...

"Staff is terrific. Room lacked nothing more than one skinny chair. Heat did not operate. Setting gorgeous. Management at desk were excellent. Bar people excellent. I will return & hope for two chairs in room & heat that actually works. "

"Amazing hotel. Extremely high standard and luxurious. Friendly staff. Great central location"

"Staff was amazing and very helpful and the guest room, lobby and breakfast room and food were excellent!"

"Great stay"

"Lena was an amazing hostess. Breakfast was really great (and GF!). Our room (#4) was huge and the patio was great. Facilities are a bit old but the amenities (kitchen access, patio, living room, free wifi, self service bar) we're all fantastic. Noise from a nearby road can be loud but it wasn't a huge bother for us."

Babymoon perfection

"The staff at Penha Longa were fantastic. Everyone was very accommodating and helpful. We spent 4 nights here for our Babymoon and were really pleased with our choice to stay here. My husband played 3 rounds of golf and I went to the spa for multiple treatments during the week. The food at the various restaurants was fantastic as well; we ate at Mercatto twice! We will definitely be back."
