We spent two nights here with friends and it was a total chill-out experience. We had rooms overlooking a terrace which in turn looked out over the pool set among grass, trees and flowering shrubs. Hot snacks and drinks are provided in situ (but not meals as such) and we didn't feel we wanted to stir from the place it... more

We stayed in the Residencial Sintra for 3 nights. My mother and daughter were put in a small room overlooking the parking lot and so got everybody coming and going. It's a small hotel but still no fun to be woken up. Avoid this room if you are a light sleeper. My wife and I were down the hall and... more

This hotel is really beautiful. It has a lovely pool area and beautiful grounds. The rooms were simple but clean and nice. The location is fine if you like walking, or if you have a car, but is about a 15 minute walk into Sintra Village and about the same to Sao Pedro. This area is quite hilly, so not... more

Stayed here for 4 nights in July. Great spot about 10min walk to historic centre of Sintra. Rooms very clean & spacious. Beautiful house & common areas. Landscaping and flowers are just lovely here. Staff exceptionally helpful & friendly, especially Susanna & her Mom. Will definitely stay here if I ever return to the area. more

The hotel is ideally situated for visiting Sintra. It is in a quiet location, away from the touristy center of town, but a pleasant, charming walk to any of the attractions, including the Moorish Castle, Pena Park and Palace, Palacio Nacional, and Quinta da Regaleira. (If you are unwilling or unable to walk the hilly terrain of Sintra, you can... more

My partner and I were backpacking around Portugal. Sintra and Lisbon were our last stops, after struggling for a decent hotel in Lisbon, we decided to travel to Sintra and try our luck. We found Pensao Residencial Sintra and didn't go back to Lisbon. Staff were very friendly, rooms impecable, bathroom clean and airy. Situated in a lovely sight sorrounded... more

My friend and I stayed here in late July 2008 and were both delighted and charmed by this inn. The hotel is located on a lush property with beautiful landscaping including hydrangeas and orange trees. The real delight here is an excellent outdoor swimming pool, perfect for summer tourists. While lounging in pool chairs the Moorish castle stares down from... more

We had a wonderful time at the Pensao Residencial which we found to be very clean and very comfortable with staff who could not have been more welcoming and helpful. It is very central for visiting many places,including the Moorish castle and the historical centre of Sintra and it is very easy and amazingly cheap to get to Lisbon for... more

The photos hardly do it justic. Our room had views to the ruins of the Moorish castle and the lush green hillside. The welcome was wonderfully warm. The building is a gently decaying manor house, and feels very much representative of the faded gentility of Sintra in general. The secured parking and easy in-and-out privileges made it convenient to sight... more
