The location of this hotel is super centric, less than a 10 min walk to the fort in Cascais (which is by the main central area with restaurants), it's a wonderful walk thru streets that feel you're in a different era. From the moment you check in, you are greeted with a smile and you feel welcomed, the Portuguese hospitality makes all the difference in the experience. We were offered a free museum card in the area, valid for 24 hours, which we took advantage of on Sunday, but as it happens, since our visit was on the first Sunday of the month, entrance was free. To really gain a true perspective of the history of Cascais, we recommend you visit the Museu Condes de Castro Guimaraes (which is next to the fort and it's the main large house you see when you drive by), as well as a visit to the Palacio da Cidadela de Cascais (fort), they're basically one in front of the other. A visit to both will enhance your overall experience. We were upgraded to a larger room with balcony (Diamond member) which looked towards the outdoors pool and the ocean far away. One afternoon we sat in the balcony, had some wine and enjoyed the outdoors, the outside noise wasn't bad at all. Everything in the room was great, bed was firm and comfortable, having the balcony was a big deal, try to get a room with a view. The hotel also has a spa that includes a sauna (very small, it fits only 3 people max at a time), and it has a separate pool in a warm enclosed area. This can be used preferably after trying the sauna, as the pool water was a bit cold. We didn't use the outdoor pool due to the cold weather. This hotel is only 9 months old as of this writing and everything feels new, the room, the carpets. We had buffet breakfast every day and it was abundant, lots of warm and cold items to choose from, as well as a la carte breakfast items that were included. The employees are willing to help and are friendly in their interactions. We brought a rental car, parking was 18 euros/day and we parked just below the lobby, the parking lot itself is not that large but is very modern and bright, we suggest using it as it has private security 24 hours a day. We recommend this hotel, and will definitely go back when we visit Cascais next time.
