Guest Reviews
Location
Proximity to the sea is a highlight with guests enjoying the serene walks along the coast and the sound of waves crashing against the rocks. The location is ideal for exploring Cascais and its surroundings, including nearby beaches such as Guincho. The slight distance from central Cascais means it's quiet yet conveniently close enough for a short drive or walk to town, perfect for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle.
Guests appreciate the hotel's excellent facilities, including a well-maintained garden, a large pool and a quality breakfast offering. The staff receives high marks for their friendliness and professionalism, adding to the overall positive experience. The hotel's spa with amenities like a sauna and Turkish bath, further enhances its reputation as a perfect spot for unwinding.
Though some mention the necessity of a short drive or taxi ride to reach the town center, this is often countered by the tranquil environment and breathtaking views. The oceanfront location provides a spectacular backdrop for a restful getaway with the peaceful ambiance and stylish, character-filled accommodations contributing to a memorable stay.
Breakfast
However, some guests pointed out areas for improvement, noting occasional issues with the diversity and quality of the breakfast options. These guests felt that the breakfast could be more extensive and varied with some suggesting additional items like fresh fruit juices and better-quality baked goods.
Despite these minor criticisms, the majority favorably regard the breakfast, especially the high standards of food quality and the overall experience enhanced by the hotel's scenic location. The fantastic team working at the hotel contributes significantly to the positive reviews, ensuring that guests enjoy a pleasant and satisfying start to their mornings.
Dinner
Rooms
However, there are consistent complaints about the room sizes being smaller than expected with some facilities feeling outdated and in need of renovation. Issues like stained carpets, musky smells and worn-out furniture detract from the overall experience. Noise can be a problem due to thin walls and loud air conditioning units. Some guests were disappointed to find their rooms different from those advertised, lacking features such as balconies or adequate space in the bathrooms.
Despite these downsides, the hotel staff is frequently praised for their friendliness and helpfulness. Cleanliness is generally maintained well and the location of the hotel, combined with its charming decor, adds to its appeal. Nonetheless, the discrepancies between room conditions and expectations, coupled with the high pricing, make the overall sentiment towards the rooms quite varied.
Beds
However, several reviews highlighted issues such as discomfort due to mattresses being old, spring-based or too soft. Some guests pointed out that the beds consisted of two single mattresses pushed together, which was inconvenient for couples. The need for mattress upgrades and replacement was a recurrent theme, along with mentions of worn sheets and sagging beds. Despite the luxurious and spacious rooms, the inconsistent bed comfort appears to be an area that could use attention to enhance guest satisfaction.
Cleanliness
However, some reviews mentioned issues with cleanliness in specific areas like stained carpets and occasional superficial cleaning. Concerns were raised about certain rooms having odors and signs of mold, as well as some neglected areas around the property. Despite these issues, the overall feedback emphasizes the hotel's cleanliness and the staff's remarkable service.
Staff
The reception team is often cited for its exceptional service with individual members speaking multiple languages, including French. The overall atmosphere created by the staff complements the hotel’s cozy and quiet environment, enhancing the experience with their availability and friendliness. While the majority of feedback is overwhelmingly positive, a few guests mentioned minor issues, such as a lack of concierge service and some occasional loud talking among staff members. Nonetheless, the positive experiences far outweighed these occasional critiques with most guests leaving with fond memories of the exceptional service and the welcoming, friendly nature of the hotel staff.
Wi-Fi
Spa
However, some note that the spa area is smaller than expected with the indoor pool being particularly small and occasionally lacking sufficient jacuzzi jets. Despite these minor drawbacks, the overall sentiment remains highly favorable with many highlighting the spa as a great and worthwhile amenity of the hotel.
Pool
However, there are a few concerns that detract from the overall experience. Some guests found the pool area to be outdated and in need of better maintenance with instances of the pool not being clean in the initial days of their stay. The pool's location near a busy road resulted in constant noise from passing cars, impacting the tranquility. Additionally, complaints about the pool water being too cold and the pool spa taking a long time to be ready were noted.
Despite these drawbacks, the hotel grounds are gorgeous and the general consensus is that the pool, while not perfect, offers a pleasant experience for most.
