Hotels in der Nähe von Pateo do Titao, São Martinho

Das Gästehaus liegt sehr zentral in der schönen Altstadt von Sintra, in der es tagsüber nur so wimmelt vor Touristen, abends aber sehr schön ruhig ist. Das Frühstück ist mehr als ausreichend und es gibt immer Kuchen, der auch tagsüber verfügbar ist. Sehr schwierig bis unmöglich ist das Parken in der Nähe. Das Auto muss recht weit weg abgestellt werden und der Fussweg mit Gepäck ist zu weit, so dass auf Taxi, Uber oder nicht ganz einfach zu durchschauende öffentliche Busse zurückgegriffen werden muss. Nicht gefallen hat uns das Bett in unserem Zimmer. Auf der Buchungsbestätigung war ein Doppelzimmer abgebildet mit einem normalen Doppelbett in der Mitte des Zimmers. Erhalten haben wir ein Zimmer, in dem lediglich eine dicke Matratze ohne Rost auf einem ca 5 cm hohen Holzbrett in einer Ecke des Zimmers lag. Dadurch war die Schlafstelle sehr niedrig, schmal, weich und nur von einer Seite zugänglich. Auf unsere Nachfrage erhielten wir die Antwort, dass es zwar Zimmer mit richtigen Betten gibt, diese aber zur Zeit nicht verfügbar sind. Anmerken möchten wir auch, dass nur vormittags bis in den frühen Nachmittag jemand vor Ort im Haus ist, davon war an einem unserer drei Übernachtungen eine Verständigung in englischer Sprache kaum möglich.

Wir wollten ursprünglich im Sintra Bliss Hotel übernachten, das aber z.Zt. (Nov. 2021) geschlossen ist. Die Hotelleitung bot uns eine Umbuchung in das Sintra Boutique Hotel an und wir haben es keine Sekunde bereut. Gerade bei zunehmender Dunkelheit und im Feierabendverkehr war die Anfahrt eine Herausforderung. Aber ab dem Moment, als das Auto (in zweiter Reihe) vor dem Hotel stand, brauchten wir uns um nichts mehr zu kümmern. Der umwerfend hilfsbereite und nette Mitarbeiter an der Rezeption hat alles weitere in die Wege geleitet - einen so warmherzigen und freundlichen Empfang haben wir selten in einem Hotel erlebt. Die Tipps von den beiden Mitarbeitern an der Rezeption für Ausflüge und Erkundungen (Montserrate, Q.d.Regaleira) waren Gold wert, die unermüdlichen Versuche, uns bei einem technischen Problem zu helfen, ebenfalls: ein toller Service, danke dafür. Unser Zimmer war sehr geräumig und gemütlich und dank der guten Verglasung auch erstaunlich ruhig, obwohl es zur Straße hin gelegen war. Einzig der Frühstücksraum passte m.E. nicht zum Stil des Hotels, der Raum wirkte eher wie ein Schnellimbiss, aber das mag auch persönliche Geschmackssache sein. Dafür war die Qualität des Frühstücks ausgeprochen gut. Uns hat es im Sintra Boutique Hotel sehr gut gefallen, wir würden jederzeit gern wiederkommen und können das Hotel wirklich empfehlen.

Excelente localização, quarto limpo e inesperadamente moderno com tomadas a perder de vista. Atendimento de primeira com a funcionária Helena, que tirou todas as dúvidas, fez algumas indicações e ainda nos presenteou com um mimo. Única ressalva fica para a chegada ao local de carro. Como o centro histórico é antigo obviamente não foi designado para trânsito se automóveis, com algumas ruas bem estreitas. Super recomendo!

My wife and I stayed for three nights at the start of March and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is great: easy to find and a 3-minute walk from the main square in the historic centre but nonetheless in a very quiet area. We booked the ‘suite with private terrace and balcony’ which was huge and exactly as pictured on the website, clean and bright with lovely large windows and patio doors. Because the house sits on a hill, the room was at ground level at the front but at first floor level at the rear and it was reassuring that, I assume for security reasons, the windows accessible from the street could not be opened. The room had a large TV with Netflix available. Water pressure in the bathroom was very good and lovely soap, shampoo and conditioner were provided. (The only watch out is the water pressure can easily blow out the shower curtain, so water ends up on the bathroom floor. Still, you only make that mistake once.) The breakfast was buffet style and taken in the kitchen or the room next to it and it does feel like you’re in a family house. The food was lovely, with hot scrambled eggs, beans and sausages, along with coffee, juice, toast and pastries, cereals etc. available. They also make snacks, wine and beer available in the kitchen overnight and operate this on an honesty-book basis. This is really convenient if you’re really tired after a day of sightseeing. The host Karen was really welcoming, friendly and helpful, as was her assistant Bianca (who we saw most of as she seemed to be receptionist, housekeeper, chef, waitress etc, all rolled into one!) This is a guest house rather than a hotel so bear that in mind for the level of services - there’s no 24 reception for example. However Karen is accessible by WhatsApp and she replied quickly when we had a question about car parking on Saturday evening. We arrived by train (less than an hour from central Lisbon and dirt cheap - about €3) and the walk from the station is easy along pleasant roads and takes about 15 minutes. We got a hire car part way through our stay and used the car parking token (payable) from the guest house for parking in the Old Town. Even though visiting in low season, we were very lucky to find a space so plan carefully if you are intending to drive to the historic centre of Sintra. It’s also worth noting that Sintra has its own microclimate with relatively high humidity which means it can feel quite damp and there is often a lot of cloud and mist, even in summer. (Anyone with a respiratory condition might want to do some research.) Given the time of year we visited, this meant our room felt quite cold whenever we arrived but the air con unit was effective and warmed it up very quickly. Also, even though there is modern double glazing, there can still be some condensation on the windows in the morning so don’t leave things on the windowsill overnight as they could get damp. All in all, we had a lovely stay in the town of Sintra and in Sintra 1012, a

We stayed for 3 nights in this hotel. It is well located in Sintra and presents very nicely (modern lobby decor, good views, large rooms), however we found the service at this hotel inadequate in the following respects: 1. Parking. We came to Sintra in a hire car. I chose this hotel because the booking.com website said that private parking was possible on site at a cost that we were willing to pay. I emailed the hotel before our arrival to arrange for parking but they never replied to my email. When we arrived there was no parking anywhere near the hotel so we parked a long distance away. When we reached the hotel I asked about on site parking and was told that none was available due to a private event being held at the hotel which was scheduled to finish by 8pm that evening. The woman at reception was very haughty and unhelpful, when I asked whether we could get a parking spot after 8pm she just dismissed my request. We ended up leaving our hire car parked a fair way away which was OK for us as we are used to hiking long distances uphill but if you have any mobility issues or are with young children this situation would be a nightmare. 2. On our third day our bath towels were not changed until I specifically asked at reception at about 5pm. Apparently they had had a problem in the laundry. When bath towels were finally delivered they were damp. 3. The toilet in our room took an unusually long time to refill after flushing. 4. The holders for the bath wash, shampoo and conditioner in the shower were very flimsy, one of them fell off as soon as I applied for some soap. If I were to revisit Sintra I would look for somewhere else to stay.

This is a perfect little spot for being a few blocks to the center of Sintra, yet a little off as to not get all the noise. The hostess here, Dulce, is a very kind, caring woman. My phone fell into the sink and stopped working. I travel alone and had no information to my next place. Dulce took the time to sit with me, let me use her personal phone and assured me that everything would be okay. She did absolutely everything she could for me. This is the place you want to stay if you are traveling alone and need assistance within daytime hours. Not sure about night but I am confident they would help within their capability. Please note, the houses are very old and you can hear the people above you. There was an elephant staying above me so, PLEASE be aware of the people below when you walk across the room. Or ask for a top floor ~ all stairs. I also wish there was a small fridge in the room. Overall, an excellent place to stay with caring people there to welcome you and bid you farewell. I would highly recommend staying here if not having a fridge isn't an issue.

Ich habe es besucht, weil es ein historisches Hotel war, aber es war klassisch und zufriedenstellend in allen Teilen. Es war eine wirklich gute Erfahrung, weil der Manager an der Rezeption professionell war und jeder elegant war, sowie das Frühstück, das Abendessen und empfohlenen Wein.
