A very well-kept hotel in an excellent location. The restaurant and bar are premium.
2.0 / 5.0
Superb location, beautiful views, helpful staff. Breakfast buffet was good enough especially considering the price of the room. Indoor swimming pool was very good and easy access to the beach made for a lovely stay. Car park was secure and plenty of space. We extended our stay an extra night as enjoyed it so much.

2.0 / 5.0
Pros are that the property was easy to access with a convenient car park. It also has nice views and a unique mid century style.
Con is that I booked a double room and was given a twin. For two (seperate) days there was no hot water in the room. The first day without hot water the hotel staff came to the room to check just confirmed no hot water and left without fixing the problem. The second time they didn’t believe us and simply told us to wait longer for the water to heat up.
The room felt dated, it had nowhere to put clothe other than a rail, and the extractor fan didn’t work in the bathroom.
The nail in the coffin is that there’s no iron in the room. Instead you have to pay for a service which charges 14 euros per item. Entirely a hidden fee, especially since you can’t just borrow the iron/steamer and have to pay.
Overall the hotel is cheaper than others in Sesimbra and maybe the quality of service reflects this. But with issues in the booking, a staff that is not helpful, à gym with machines that may break at any time, I would not recommend this hotel.

1966 hotel/conference center lovingly maintained. Very friendly staff
Gorgeous beach views from the rooms and from the outdoor and indoor pool. Breakfast buffet has everything you might want.

Hotel is very nice. Had a beautiful, huge balcony looking out to the sea. Location is perfect for avenue with a lot of dining options.
Only negative thing I will say about the hotel is the layout. Very confusing floor plan Weber no elevator takes you from your room to the beach exit. You have to take certain elevators from floor 8 to 5, then find the other wing’s elevator to get to the ground level. Got lost and turned around a few times.
2.0 / 5.0
Room are completely outdated and smell. Carpets need to be thrown out. They are very dirty. Hotel should not have bed side mats. Furniture need replacement. Feels like a cheap motel. Hotel lighting needs updating. It’s very dark and gloomy. Feels like bates motel. The electrical plugs are in the wrong spot. I had to go under the table to charge my phone, hair dryer is in random spot and not in front of mirror and can’t be moved. Washrooms sink doesn’t drain. Hotel needs complete overhaul. Do not recommend this hotel to anyone

Initially difficult to find the hotel as maps took me the wrong direction. Beautiful location on the beach with great views. The rooms are outdated but generally comfortable. The breakfast had good selection. The off season price was good. I have to return in season.

Was here 40 years ago. Nothing much has changed except tv and wifi. Needs a little refurbish and paint.
New beds and more pultes fir charging. Petty that they don’t serve breakfest on the wodden balcony anymore. Cut Down some of the trees for regaining the spectacular view.

We had a great time. There is lots to do and see around the area. The staff was wonderful. The beach is just steps away, but sometimes a lot of steps away depending on where you are in the hotel. The Outdoor and indoor pool were well kept.

This is by far my favorite hotel experience ever! The staff was wonderful, room was perfect for us. Being able to walk right down to the beach and then also have the option for a swim in the pool was breathtaking. Also the easy access to town was so nice. Not to mention you get to look at a castle!

This is a front beach room, I was able to see the ocean… but not the beach due a wall in front.
The building looks a bit tired but the room was clean.

Arrived at 2 PM would not let us check in until 4 PM (hotel empty, off season. Picture on Hotels.com misrepresent what the accommodations are really like. Dirty, depressing, bugs, bed lumpy, dark, noisy, old fuzzy TV, please see my pictures. I would never stay here again. Worst hotel on our 2 week trip.

Walking distance from the city centre. Nice room with comfy beds . We had ocean’s view room with a huge balcony. Breakfast was nice too, we sat outside on the terrace, the food seemed fresh and the staff was very friendly. I wish we could have stayed longer but I had to go back to work

Beds hard as a rock - seriously! We woke up in pain. Breakfast mediocre. Decent location, but to get to the beach you have to go down 2 elevators, various stairways and down the hill on the street. The hotel is not right on the beach.

The team at the property were very friendly, accommodating and helpful. We had a lovely garden apartment on the 5th floor. The breakfast was fantastic all one could ask for. Very handy location with fabulous views of the Ocean. The only disappointing factor was the restaurant team, they werent very friendly and seemed to be wandering aimlessly. The 2 elderly gentlemen (in blue suits) gave the impression that they didnt want to be there. When I questioned undercooked (red, almost blue) veal in my Gordon Bleu one of these gents said; Well, thats the way sometimes people like it. Really? Thank goodness the duty manager stepped in and did not charge us for my portion of the dinner. Thank you.

The hotel has character with its 60s style furniture and décor. It is interesting because its set over a number of levels, so you discover small lounges and other features all over the place!

We stayed for 10 days and really enjoyed it. Staff were very helpful and the room was clean. Yes the hotel is older so set your expectations accordingly; if you are looking for a modern 5 star resort then you will be disappointed. But if you looking for a decent hotel with some character in a great location this is for you. Good to have a car if you are staying for a while because the town is small. Breakfast was fantastic.
A few minor and simple suggestions to the hotel to make it even better:
- spend a small amount of money to improve the wifi because it is almost nonfunctional; the routers are too far away (Very weak signal)
- don't charge extra for the safe in the room; That is nickel and diming and most other hotels include this at no extra charge.
- put some air freshener in the bathroom to counteract the odour that sometimes is there.
