I am not usually one for writing reviews, but having stayed in many hotels around Europe, I can’t think of any to match the Hotel Villa Bela Vista in Sintra. The location is perfect and accommodation is extremely impressive. The attention to detail in the decor, the furnishings and the quality of service is outstanding. My wife and I definitely plan to return.

It has the best view in Sintra, overlooking the old town and national palace. Most attractions are in walking distance. Their photos are 100% true to reality. It’s a bit busy during the day but very quite at night. I really enjoy having a walk back to the hotel after dinner. I feel like home staying there. Don’t worry about food — It’s close to a lot of nice restaurants. If you want to go farther, it takes around 15 mins walking to the train station/ town center. The room is very clean and in a decent size. Bathroom with marble flooring/ floor heating. They serve a simple but a generous amount of continental breakfast of fruits, bread basket, ham and cheese, and occasionally classic Portuguese pastries. It’s very easy to get an Uber if you want to travel to Lisbon from there.

Very nice little hotel in Sintra! The hotel is very clean and quiet and the ladies who work here are so kind and helpful. The free breakfast was so much better than I would have thought! Lovely fresh fruit, breads, eggs and great coffee! You can walk to many things to do and take the bus to the rest. It is so special to see the sun rise over Sintra from your balcony in the morning. Thank you for having me ❤️

What an amazing stay. From the time we arrive till the end. We had an amazing time. We stayed 2 nights. Beautiful red Villa, well renovated, white stone with a combination of wood. The room has got all the comfort to enjoy your stay. Complimentary coffee, tea and water. The bathroom has got heating floor. Nice shower. Bed is comfy. The view is stunning. Alejandra our host was nice and helpful. Nice continental breakfast. There is also a terrace on the lower ground to enjoy a drink from our Mini bar.

Wonderful lovely pace. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Wonderful location, views of the Palace of Sintra, prefect location. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend this hotel! The breakfast is amazing, and the service is second to none. Rooms are clean and large. The location is 3 minutes to the centre of town. Limited free parking.

From the moment we arrived Alexandra was very sympathetic with us. She was pleasant and accommodating to our needs. The room and bathroom we occupied were very nice and the terrace too. The breakfast buffet is very yummy, served with quality foods and the best fruits. My favorite during breakfast is Eva, she is the sweetest in helping you feel welcome and well taken care of. Furthermore, Alexandra has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to everything in that area, just ask! Overall, this was one of the best stays we had in Portugal and one we will always cherish, OBRIGADA!

Stayed here our first 2 nights in Portugal. Really nice hotel with very quiet rooms in a great location near all the sights. Extremely clean rooms and comfy beds with luxurious bed linens. Breakfast was great and saved us a lot of time in the mornings not having to go find a place to eat.

Is a five star for sure. Alexandra and her staff were phenomenal. Helpful with rides, suggestions and just lovely people. Room was a nice size. The bathroom was incredible with a free standing tub and gigantic shower. Linens on the king bed were dreamy. View over the town from the balcony was stunning. Great location for getting around but be prepared to walk up and down a lot. It’s just Sintra. Breakfast was literally one of the best I’ve had travelling. Fresh scrambled eggs, ham and cheeses, fresh fruit and freshly squeezed orange juice. Would stay nowhere else in Sintra.

Couldn't ask for a better hotel in Sintra - view of the entire city, 15 mins taxi to Pena Palance, beautiful rooms and friendly staff.

our stay was joyful and comfortable, the hotel made feeling of Sintra more magical with the view and perfect location. We diffinetly will come back again.

We booked for one night while visiting Sintra. We arrived fairly early in the morning, around 9.30am and Alexandra checked us in and allowed us to leave luggage while we went off visiting the sights. We got back late afternoon and were delighted to relax for a few hours before dinner in our lovely room. Beautiful views over the town, a well appointed bathroom and a comfortable bed were all gratefully utilized. There was a mini bar too which I resisted, although prices were fair . After a meal in town we returned and had a wonderful nights sleep with gentle breezes cooling the room. Next morning we were regrettably somewhat rushed, as I would have enjoyed lingering longer over a very nice breakfast spread. All in all, this was a very comfortable stay and I would have no hestitation in recommending to any travelers to Sintra. Location is great too - close to everything without being in the midst of the chaos!

Beautifully renovated grand home. Excellent location. More of a B&B than a hotel

This is a superb hotel. I have stayed at many in Sintra and this is 100% my favorite. The hotel staff is gracious and the views from our room really were stunning. Breakfast is wonderful, excellent location.

Best stay in Portugal. The owner is so kind! Beautiful view from the hotel, the room design so so pretty. Everything was super and beyond Thank you!

Delighted with this place! The decor is lovely, the view was great, the staff very friendly and the breakfast was really nice. Their natas were delicious, the bread freshly made and the orange juice the best I've had in a long time. I would recommend

Very welcoming, warm and helping owner. I felt as if I was a person, not a customer. Beautiful villa, and very clean rooms. Excellent breakfast, not the quality I am used to in hotels , this was fresh and healthy and high quality. Nice view. And very friendly and efficient staff. Best place I ever stayed!
