The hotel has an amazing location WITH historic heritage. I also enjoyed the clean rooms. The service was great.
the breakfasts were fairly standard which seemed odd for a Michelin-starred restaurant, though they were still alright!

underwhelming experience
obstructed viewinfrequent cleaning
the room i selected had a partial view, but it was largely obstructed. housekeeping neglected some duties, such as cleaning the shower, only doing so once during my three-night stay. i found this oversight unacceptable given the hotel's reputation..

cliffside locationbeach viewsfresh pastries
I enjoyed the hotel's location directly on the cliffside. The views of the two beaches from the hotel rooms were a highlight for me. Breakfast was comprehensive, with a wide range of quality products (especially the fresh pastries).
The lack of a lift could be an issue with mobility concerns or heavy luggage.
Facilities
10/10
The hotel features a Michelin-starred restaurant. It also offers a casual dining option named 'The Spot' with a bar. Both dining venues provide distinctive culinary experiences.
Rooms
9/10
My room included an enclosed balcony. It overlooked the sea, providing unique views (I really enjoyed watching the kite surfers). The bathroom was recently updated.
Location

The hotel is set away from the main bustling area. This ensures a quiet and calm atmosphere. Sintra is easily accessible via Uber or Bolt from this location.
