Rosegarden Essence Sintra

An absolute gem of a hotel. Rooms and bathrooms are beautifully appointed and location is on a very quiet cobbled square walking distance from the historic center but having some lovely restaurants right in its neighborhood. We sat in the evening in their beautiful living room and had drinks from the honor bar and in the morning ate a lovely breakfast served by a charming hostess. We could have done with a friendlier welcome from the woman who checked us in but otherwise loved our stay. Notes to visitors: all walking is very steep in Sintra, not a gentle stroll; the hotel has no parking but there is a open lot in the square about 2 blocks away (maybe 2-300m), if you don’t fancy steep hikes up and down to town or train, Uber is very accessible and quite reasonable.

We loved this lovely hotel! Very clean, nicely decorated room, very friendly staff, breakfast was delicious - definitely recommended!

The worst hotel stay ever. The staff was very poorly trained from the moment we arrived without a friendly smile or help with luggage to zero knowledge of how to access the pena palace after much email contact beforehand. We waited 25 minutes in pouring rain for a bus that never came and finally got a taxi directly to the entrance which the staff failed to tell us existed. They also insisted there was no shuttle bus in the park to access the palace to avoid very wet slippery cobble stones BUT THERE IS! i can't imagine less helpful staff. The room was ok but AVOID THIS ACCOMMODATION AT COSTS.

Fantastiskt hotell, bland det mest romantiska vi besökt! Rekommenderas för par utan barn, då miljön var oerhört lugn pch avslappnad. Fick ett fantastiskt mottagande vid ankomsten, med visning av hotellet. Frukosten serverades vid bordet av oerhört vänlig personal, rejäl och vackert upplagd. Rekommenderar morgonpromenad i bergen bakom byn, vilken utsikt!
