I cannot give enough positive accolades for my stay. The resort is stunning, all the food was modestly priced and exceptional. I didn’t have a single bad meal. The rooms were spacious and beautiful, and the pools were great! Especially the staff was exceptional. Each restaurant we dined in did not disappoint, you don’t even have to leave. Only gripe is the several day Indian wedding blaring their music during their festivities our entire stay. Could have done without that experience.

We loved Ritz Carlton Penha Longa. Excellent hotel with beautiful room, great pool and spa and a golf course, if that is your thing. Convenient to both Sintra and Cascais. 2 different Michelin starred restaurants on property and a very nice breakfast.

The hotel is big and relatively dated. We had a lot of small issues which might have been because it was high season and busy. However, every day we had to ask for our toilet to be fixed because it leaked. It was never fixed and it was only the last day we were asked if we wanted a different room. Also, we gave our laundry the day before leaving and brought to the front desk and told them we were leaving and it needed to be ready for our departure the next day. Not only was it not ready but it hadn’t even gone to the wash. When we got it back it was mixed with someone else’s dirty clothes. The staff apologised and gave me a free nights worth of loyalty points from Marriott which was nice but I haven’t received them yet, but I assume I will in due course. I think the hotel is too big and too dated to be five stars. They had some really good staff and some really average staff. I don’t think there is much value for money here.

From the check in reception to check out the customer service was exceptional. Everyone was engaged and genuinely happy to assist. They were also happy to have a conversation at any time. The staff makes you feel welcomed and are truly happy with their roles and opportunities to assist in any way. The only other place I've experienced such pure genuine customer service was Jade Mountain in Saint Lucia.

The staff at Penha Longa were fantastic. Everyone was very accommodating and helpful. We spent 4 nights here for our Babymoon and were really pleased with our choice to stay here. My husband played 3 rounds of golf and I went to the spa for multiple treatments during the week. The food at the various restaurants was fantastic as well; we ate at Mercatto twice! We will definitely be back.

Our stay at the Penha Longa exceeded all expectations. From the beginning to the end. On arrival we were met with some of the most friendly and helpful staff. Everyone went above and beyond to please and to make the stay great. The hotel is nestled on a beautiful golf course. Lots of great restaurants and a superb free breakfast every morning. Star in every department was great. There was no language barrier. I would certainly return to this property. We had a wonderful vacation.

Our stay at Penha Longa was absolutely lovely. The service and the hotel were top to the finest details. We enjoyed our holiday with our toddler and never felt this welcomed. It really warmed our hearts to see how everyone paid attention to our little one. The hotel is located in such a beautiful venue and there was plenty of activities to do, our favorites were the spa and buggy rides. We will definitely return!

Dear Penha Longa, I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with my recent stay at your hotel. While I had chosen to stay at your 5-star hotel to celebrate my child's 10th birthday, I was disappointed that nothing special was done to mark the occasion, despite assurances from your staff. Moreover, when I requested a golf cart, it was malfunctioning, adding to our frustration and inconvenience during our stay. Additionally, one evening, a staff member almost entered our bedroom without our permission, asking if we needed towels. This was completely inappropriate and left us feeling violated and that our privacy had been disturbed. Furthermore, I was also disappointed with the construction work that was going on during my stay. The loud and disturbing sounds from the construction site on the first floor woke us up at 8 in the morning, which was very disruptive to our stay. While I understand that construction work may be necessary, it is unacceptable for guests to be subjected to such noise disturbances, and measures should be in place to ensure guests' comfort. Overall, my experience at Penha Longa Sintra Portugal was far from satisfactory, and I hope that you take note of these issues and take the necessary steps to ensure that guests' expectations are met in the future. Sincerely, Anna

I stayed at Penha Longa 10 years ago and when I decided to visit Portugal, I selected this resort again and I wasn't disappointed. If I could bottle the level of service I received and take it with me everywhere I go, I would. The property is still well maintained, the dining experience from breakfast to dinner was superb. The Spa was awesome also. I highly recommend this resort and would give a higher score than 5 if I could.

The staff deserve special recognition at this hotel. Anytime my wife and I needed anything, they were willing and enthusiastic to help. Rooms were clean and nice, the restaurants on the property are excellent, and the property is beautiful. My only complaint is that we played a round of golf while we were there, and were charged the full, normal rate during off season, on a course that was far from optimal condition. Most places have winter rates that are about half of the main season rates, and although the course was fun and challenging, I feel as though I overpaid for the round. No difference between fairways and rough, grass was 5” long on the fairway in many places. Lost several balls in the fairway. We were warned that the course wasn’t in peak condition, but I feel the price should have reflected that. Other than that small issue, this place was incredible! Again, the staff was super accommodating. The breakfast that this hotel puts on is the best I’ve seen in Portugal; phenomenal. If you choose to come stay here in the off season as we did, you will enjoy less people at the hotel and smaller crowds at the beautiful sites in the area as well.

Thé hôtel had overbooked and did not have rooms available for the first of my five night stay. The following day no rooms were available until mid afternoon and when a manager intervened the room made available was obviously a rushed job and lacked amenities and essential toiletries one would expect of a 5* hotel. The admin staff appeared untrained. When I checked out they did not not have records of my Experian prepayment until a manager was summoned.

Firstly they moved us for our first night (of 5) they said because of covid, it was a lie we found they were overbooked. We then agreed to move to the hotel at 10am providing our room was ready on arrival we were told the room would be ready at 3pm. We got the duty manager and she got us a room in 10 mins. She was excellent. One day the room was not serviced, and for three days tea and coffee not replaced. The duty manager again was very helpful. All the staff were great, but obviously he top management are really not very good. On Monday we were looking to have dinner in one of the 3 star Michelin restaurants, but surprise surprise all are closed on a Monday, surely you would stagger closures, but no. Main dining room was fully booked until 9:30pm. But was not on looking in a few times. So we had to eat in the bar.

This hotel is a Ritz Carlton. It is a beautiful property but for the most part they are great BUT I feel for a Ritz brand they could be better! Our room carpet is dirty with a wine stain or something. Make note that electric bike is NOT free. We didn't remember they mention the rental cost so we were a little shocked that it was 18 euro per bike. For a 5 star hotel I think bike should be free of charge since it is just for exploring the hotel property and cant be use to go outside anyway. but overall good stay.

Although the location is stunning, there are a lot of issues with this resort which made our stay quite disappointing. We were planning a few days of relaxing, my husband would play golf and i would use their pools and other facilities, and then we would go to their michelin restaurant for his birthday. The pools were cold and not usable, the running "trails" were just the road around the resort you share with the cars, and on check in we discovered most of the restaurants would remain closed for our stay and were told to book straight away as everything would be full otherwise. Nowhere on the website or during the booking process is it advertised that the pools and restaurants are seasonal but this is the case. Breakfast was a bit of a disaster, we were put next to the coffee station which was really loud and chaotic with staff making coffees around us. And got coffee pod machine coffee which is hardly 5 star. The food was very slow and not good when it arrived. We didnt bother to go down for the remaining days. I have to say that the staff here were all really friendly and tried their best despite the underlying problems of the systems they were working with. When we complained they were most understanding, we received an upgrade and a bottle of wine on the birthday which was much appreciated. Despite this the overall experience was really disappointing.

A tired property, but most importantly, staff that didnt seem to have attended any sort of training. Certainly not a 5 star hotel, and most certainly not 5 star trained staff. This is supposed to be a Ritz Carlton, but: 1. No greeters when checking in 2. Nobody to assist with the luggage 3. Dirty/dusty rooms 4. Breakfast wrong each and every day 5. Staff that took notes of problems, then seemed to discard them! Really. really disapointing hotel
