Lovely location, grand reception area, booked sea view deluxe room. Great staff, very helpful and polite, good breakfast choices, daytime dining also good on terrace. Third floor room allocated, noisy aircon and vents on roof were above room. Rooms outdated, in need of refurb, too much furniture with bedside tables blocking sockets, tv blocked mirror and big char blocked tv! Layout needs a rethink as not practical. Spacious room. Also recommend soundproofing.

A fabulous hotel, wonderful staff. One of the most relaxing weekends I have had in a long time. A great location for exploring other areas of Portugal e.g. Sintra, Lisbon. Cascais clean & calm (although not been in high season).

Room with several stains in the floor, TV with no access to streaming, downgrades charged as upgrades. Charged access to inner swimming pool. This is not a 5 Stars Hotel. The staff is nice (except in the “SPA”, but clearly not prepared.

Dear Guest, Thank you for your review, which deserved our best attention. Regarding the upgrade you mentioned it was proposed by our colleague in the front-desk for you to pass to a sea view room which you accepted. It was not a downgrade since you passed from a garden view room to a sea view room. We re very sorry and disappointed you didn't mentioned you weren't happy with your room immediately, as we would have tried other solutions as we always do for all our guests. Our everyday goal is to have our guests happy and having the best experience while with us. As for the televisions we just installed newer and bigger TV's for our guests comfort but we are waiting just for the streaming service. Our spa does not have an "indoor pool" as you mention but a thalassotherapy circuit of heated sea water and hydro massage jets that provide a full body relaxation and therapy treatment. As so it has a cost per access of €20,00 per guest to ensure your comfort and relaxation environment. Also included in this access is the sauna and steam room. Either way we assure you that your comment will be shared with the team responsible. Kind Regards, Cristóvão Silva - Guest Experience Manager

We had a room with balcony and sea view which was fantastic. Breakfast was very good, but dinner options in the hotel a bit limited. Staff were excellent everywhere in the hotel. Restaurant Belvedere was very nice but the food quality was not meeting our expectations.

To be avoided if you have kids or if you don't want to be an accomplice to places who bluntly despise kids without assuming they don't accept them.Although location and rooms are good and in good condition, breakfast is poor quality and service is terrible, particularly if you are a family with children. There aren't any facilities suitable for children, staff make guests feel bad for bringing any children, although the hotel isn't labelled as an "adults only" facility, and in the description there are facilities that are described as being for children. PR services are terrible and they claim having no "solutions" for kids, having one member of the front desk even stating that the hotel should be only for people over 18.We had made a search and decided to stay in this hotel due to the facilities, including the ones falsely advertised as meant for kids, and we felt completely defrauded.
