Casa Miradouro

The beds were so cosy, we slept like happy babies for our four night stay. The staff were 3 women who welcomed us with smiles and made us feel at home. Casa Miradouro is a homely and ultra luxurious treat for a little getaway.

Very hard to write anything here, as the whole place is marvellous. But one observation is that given the price and all round luxuriousness I would have expected breakfast to be included, rather than as an extra payment.

Very peaceful and well-kept guesthouse with friendly helpful staff

We loved our room on the top floor but some folks might not care for the steep climb to get there.

Location - 10 minute walk to central plaza; outdoor terrace for picnic/cocktails. Beautiful building, classical music, breakfast, laundry service, on site bar, did I say breakfast (french press coffee, french toast, fresh scrambled eggs, fresh bacon not smoked, yogurt, local breads). Charlotte and her staff were so sweet, responsive and helpful with suggestions. We are definitely coming back. It was beautiful in early October. Also our room was spacious with a love seat and seating area. We could see Pena Castle from our room (6). At least I think it was Pena Castle. It was cool in the moonlight all lit up.

The first 2 days the uphill walk to the town square was tiring for this 69 year old, but we got used to it and hey its downhill going home. You can't help this as Sintra is built on a hill.

El lugar y la tranquilidad

A pesar de no hablar español el trato es muy bueno, siempre pendientes de todo. Nosotros nos alojamos en una habitación doble superior con balcón y estaba genial, la cama super cómoda, todo impecable y desde el balcón veíamos los principales monumentos de Sintra. El alojamiento queda muy cerca del centro, perfecto para ir a pié y no preocuparte por el coche.

No hablan español El aparcamiento nos pareció un timo ya que aparcas en la carretera, es decir en la cuneta y solo merece la pena pagar si vas al centro ya que te dan una tarjeta con la que no tienes que pagar pero aparcar en el centro es imposible.

Limpio, cómodo, bien amueblado y decorado. El desayuno es excelente. El personal era fantástico! La vista desde nuestra habitación era magnífica.
