Good central location, nice apartments

Advantages: Nice apartments near the centre

An element of noise can be heard from corridor as bedroom back onto it. especially in the ...

Up there

Advantages: Location, style, welcome, comfort, facilities, food, value
Disadvantages: None, except to those who might prefer swankiness and flunkeys

...in the case of the Casa do Visconde at Chanceleiros, I shall definitely want to go again. My stay there was among the most enjoyable I’ve had anywhere, and I’ve stayed in a lot of places. This judgement does need to be put in the context that I have a slightly individual taste in hotels, tending to prefer the small and independent to the large and chain-corporate. Also, whilst some people delight in the deference of others and enjoy being waited ...
...far as I’m concerned, the Casa do Visconde is up there with the best. * Location * Perched in the tiny hillside village of Chanceleiros above the Douro valley, the hotel is beautifully situated, with views over vineyard-clad and wooded slopes in all directions. You can’t, admittedly, quite see the Douro itself, since the river is hidden by a fold in the hills, around which the only access road winds precariously down to the town of Pinhao, but its ...

Review of Casa do Visconde de Chanceleiros, Pinhao

LUXURY AND CLASSIC!!

Advantages: Location, decoration and design, service, etc.
Disadvantages: none...

...their lobby and exterior. Hotel Palacio Estoril is different. Its room are very well decorated, with unequalled furniture and design. My room was a double room. It is well equipped but it still has a lot of space. The quality of housekeeping was also great. Unlike other hotels that they do the best only for the first night; here, they did everything perfect for both nights I stayed. You'll be surprised for the number of pillow on the bed (actually, ...
...I can sleep), the weight of the wooden chair (seriously, a little bit too heavy), amount and varieties of bathroom supplies. Rating: 10 out of 10 THE PRICE Well, what kind of price do you think is suitable for this historic 5-star hotel? I was not in the surprise that its official room rate stated the range from 320euro (single room - off season) to 530euro (suite - on season). However, the price deal can be a lot cheaper if you can get ...

Review of Palacio Hotel, Estoril

Clube do Adequate

Advantages: Nice location, friendly staff, large apartments
Disadvantages: Tired, uninspired

...hear you say). The Clube do Lago apartments tick many boxes. It's a nice location - near the beach, but still near enough to Lisbon to allow frequent day trips. The architecture looks Portuguese/Iberian, and so feels more traditional and personal than the big tower blocks that are sprouting like mushrooms everywhere in the area. The staff is helpful and friendly, and speak excellent English. The rooms are spacious and clean. However, everything is ...
...'should I stay at the Clube do Lago', I'd say go for it. If you were to ask me 'where should I stay in Portugal', I'd advise you to canvass opinion of folk with more experience of hotels in the area than I have - I'd imagine there are more exciting places than this for similar rates. As they say, pays your money and takes your choice. You can visit their web site on www.hotelclubedolago.com, where you'll find pictures, 360 degree views, information, ...

Review of Clube Do Lago, Estoril

A nice hotel subject to noise at night

Advantages: Clean good sized rooms. Efficient staff. The cold buffet breakfast
Disadvantages: The hot breakfast dishes and noise from the bar opposite

A modern and comfortable hotel with good sized clean rooms and an excellent bathroom. It is located 5 minutes from the marina and 15 minutes from the centre. The best beach is a further 10 minute walk away. A good swimming pool with free sunbeds. Breakfast is plentiful with a good choice which can be categorized in 2 parts. Cold buffet is superb, The hot food is moderate. The scrambled eggs were inedible and there was no fried eggs. The sausages ...
...intolerable. The staff were first class in efficiency. The hotel was let down down by the location being opposite a beer garden that had live music until 1.30 many mornings which kept us awake. For us the noise and from the bar and the location were the only real negative issue from what was otherwise a lovely stay. ...
