The property was unique because it was a fortress.

Had a lovely time as a family stay for few days. L Amazing location and stunning view on the ocean. Easy access to the beach. Hotel team was friendly and helpful. The hotel is very spacious, some area are a bit old but it gives its charm

The hotel seemed to be quite poor and we got a feeling that it was almost abandoned. Could do with some modernization and a feeling that it was part of this century. Breakfast was not worth it - we didn’t even go on day number two.

Very nice rustic getaway spot. Pool is awesome to hang around and suntan.

Beautiful views!

This place was unique and beautiful. Rooms were clean and very comfortable. Pool was amazing and so was the location. A little outdated but I think that’s part of the charm. 10/10 would stay again

Mould in bathroom, facilities are old and not well maintained, amazing view on the beach and staff is friendly and resourceful. Property photos are not representative of what we got. Breakfast. Is mediocre you are better off finding something else to eat, selection is mediocre and average tasting at best.

What an incredible experience! Built in the 1940s (I believe) on a 17th century fort on a windblown beach in a national park? Yes please! The natural beauty alone is worth staying here. But the use of stone and wood and natural elements was superb. I saw some reviews complain about the age of the place. Well my room and the whole wing appears quite new. Decor is simple and comfortable and more than spacious enough for Americans. My room (#50) had a huge patio with views of both the dunes and the beach! Housekeeping works hard here! Keeping the sand out when it blows in the air and folks track it in must be impossible but I walked barefoot in my room with no grit. The best part was the service. They let me put my luggage in early and after I checked out so I could walk the beach. They even walked me to my room. Very helpful despite language barriers- MINE, my Portugese is non existent. Hands signals and smiles and patience fixed that. If you need a day or two of quiet after a busy city like Lisbon I highly recommend this local beach off the beaten track

Tired property but a great location.

The best location with very nice view, we love it! Traditional in good Portugese sense and way: kindly service, breakfast and also the building itself. Faded glory and lovely

Great location and price. Walk everywhere. Rooms are small but nice.

Amazing beach, and the area is great for hiking, eating, etc. The hotel is a bit funky, especially the pool, but the staff is wonderful. I would go back

I place needed a serious update ,very old stuff, complimentary breakfast was horrible.

It was quiet, relaxing and a nice place to unwind at.

Beautiful location on the beach (stunning views). Hotel is dated, but clean and comfortable. Next to popular surfing spot; which is fun to watch. Parking in front of hotel was crowded, but it clears out when the surfers leave for the day. The pool area is beautiful.

The hotel was very safe with excellent customer service from all staff members. However, it lacks some luxuries that I am accustomed to have at most hotels, such as: tea/coffee machine in the suite and hair dryer in the bathroom.

Superb location Friendly staff Parts of the installations need an update Room was modern and comfy, very good size and lovely sea view

While the staff was friendly, breakfast decent and the view did not disappoint, the facility itself *definitely* shows its age, beyond "quaint". The room was not as pictured but bare minimum. The shower, however, was surprisingly hot with great pressure. Better signage to move around facility would be appreciated

Very good I enjoy the staff very friendly the only thing is that I didnt see any thing around very quite place

It is closed to the beach

Loved the Salt Water Huge Pool!! Loved the Beach!!

Bathroom had a smell of sewage throughout our 2-day stay, breakfast is very poor with out of packet bread/food .Only good things were the location and the pool.

The wind is really strong and it was hard to sleep

I’ve frequented this hotel since I was a kid and while on vacation in Lisbon, I couldn’t think of a better more nostalgic place to stay. Historical and economical set in the most beautiful location on Guincho Beach. Free breakfast and the staff are all beyond fantastic! I will always be back.

We liked the room and Seaview. We did not like the breakfast and general conditions of the hotel.

The older rooms were very shabby. Dated decore . The renovated rooms were quite nice. They upgraded us which was fine. The place has lots of character. It is like going back in time. Staff were lovely and very accommodating. Breakfast was good. Amazing beach setting!

What a disappointment. If outdated, smelly, dark, and fogged up windows were our thing this place would be great! Our friends, the ants in the dining room and mosquitoes in the bedroom, say 5 stars, but I am going to have to disagree.The positives:- This would be a great location for the Shining remake.- you can open the dirty windows to see a clear view- the dirty furniture in the common areas encourages you to keep moving- the breakfast is easily skipped to reduce calories- the staff doesnt waste your time with pleasantries- the phone in the bathroom doesnt work so you arent interrupted while attending to your bath- the dark hallways give you a sense of adventureSo, why two stars instead of 1? The bed was clean and the beach was lovely. Book at your own risk.

Fix the whole place!!!!!!! Air conditioning did not work properly, a constant issue. We left the window open and then realized mosquitos r a problem. Told the front desk and they said oh yes the bugs r a problem. We should have been told that at check to not open the window. Or here's a thought put screens on the windows. My husband was so chewed up by the bugs that we went to the pharmacy for medicine and the pharmacist told us if his bites weren't better in a couple of days he should go to the hospital. All the fault of the hotel.
