Search hotels in Colares

I rarely submit a review of places I booked on Booking.com but I am making an exception in this case. Estalagem de Colares is a gem. The house is newly renovated and the room I stayed in was beautiful and spacious and well outfitted and even came with a variety of complimentary snacks. The front door is barely a meter from a busy road, but the rooms are well set back from the road along a small stream. You do not hear the traffic from the room, just the sound of the water from the creek and the frogs in it. The place also has a nice resting area next to the river. The place is run by a lovely couple from Toronto (among other places) and have made the guesthouse their life project. They were simply magnificent, welcoming, helpful and full of stories. Also, there was by (very) far the best and most wonderful breakfast I encountered on my bikepacking ride along the Portuguese coast. This was an a la carte breakfast with several choices. I had the country harvest omelet and it was excellent. Furthermore, the owners surprised me with birthday cake since it was the morning of my birthday. We shared stories and it made for a special day. If this is not a 5-star experience then I do not know what would be. I am confident you may have a similar experience.

Pleasant hotel. Family room for 4 was really large and comfortable for 3 adults and 1 kid, we even got 2 bathrooms in it which made things easier for us. Staff was always helpful and very nice. Our little one loved the piano and even had a cute surprise at the end. Breakfast was also great, there was a very good real bread.

The atmosphere created by the staff is warm & welcoming! They are awesome. The free breakfast was tasty!

Very nice deco with all facilities available. Staff at reception was exceptional and very helpful.

Excellent service and took care of our note to celebrate our anniversary

There are many things to love about this place. The ability to video-conference an employee (at the sister location) at any time was very much appreciated. The people who were on site during the day were so incredibly nice. The room was clean, well designed, and had great A/C. They offered fresh bread every morning and left a "care package" in our room that my father loved. My mom felt pampered by the experience (even comparing the space to the Ritz), and she is not easy to please when staying away from home.

I recently stayed here after the reopening and had a lovely experience. The place has unique atmosphere and style, you can feel like in a real palace. The location couldn't be better, right in the heart of Sintra's historic center, making it easy to explore the town on foot. My room was comfortable and very well maintained, and the staff were welcoming throughout my stay. I would happily stay here again on my next visit to Sintra :)

Such a wonderful little boutique hotel at a reasonable price! The two young ladies that manned the front desk were delightful & took great care in helping us get the most out of our short visit to Sintra. Comfortable bed, great shower & our room opened up onto a patio with with terrace below. 24 hour espresso machine, afternoon pastries & a nice breakfast buffet with good variety (from healthy cereal & (dairy & non-dairy) milk to pancakes & pastries). Very convenient to train station & just a pleasant, short & mostly flat walk into the historic center. We can't wait to return!

The front desktop, vitória and Anna are great ! Rooms are spacious and the pools are great.

This is an outstanding little inn with small intimate public spaces to sit and read a book. I go to Sintra to stay at Lawrence’s.

I liked everything. Kind staff . Cleaning staff are amazing. Service is great , Location is PERFECT.

Lovely hotel, staff were very friendly and helpful

The friendly staff, the facilities available, and the location too.

The hotel is beautiful, clean and well maintained. Lovely gardens, peace and tranquility. The staff are professional, kind and helpful. Breakfast was abundant and delicious, with quality products- I particularly enjoyed the coffee and the orange juice. Travelers with children should know that the indoor pool is adults only from 9-11 a.m and from 19-21 p.m. It is very clearly stated- at the front desk, in the elevators, at the entrance of the pool. But ,of course, at 20 p.m, there was a couple with two young children. Well, we complained to the front desk and they quickly shooed them away. So, please, don't be those entitled parents. You have all day to enjoy the pool- follow the rules and let other guests enjoy it for a couple of hours without screeching, screaming and splashing.

Tudo foi único e maravilhoso. Não podia ter escolhido um melhor lugar para passar o meu aniversário com a família.

Simply majestic. Beautiful hotel. Perfect location. Adds to the splendor of Sintra.
