A very nice hostel with clean rooms and a very friendly and helpful staff. A nice yard with great views of Sintra. It is a bit of a long uphill trip uphill from the train station in Sintra but well worth it once you get there. A perfect spot to enjoy the many wonders of Sintra. Sorry we only had... More

Nice hostel with excellent young stuff. Nice old building with uniquely decorated rooms, very attractive. Modern combined with old. Parking seemed difficult but at last we could park on the street 50 m from the hostel (free). Rooms are big (no aircon, maybe not needed ), with or without bathroom (clean). Breakfast included (simple) which was OK, I guess it... More

The other reviewers have got it exactly right. Without really trying, just by being relaxed, warm, friendly people, Pedro and the girls really make this place feel like home. In some bigger hostels, you can feel like the staff are only speaking to you because they have to, or like there's pressure on you to socialise when you'd rather have... More

After a lot of walks in the magical forests in sintra what you really want is to get back home, feel warm and have a nice coffee/tea by the fireplace. The people working there are very warm, kind and helpful. You share many stories with the other visitors and when you leave you are sure that this palace will be... More

a great big rambling house with a beautiful garden and a hippie vibe. Stayed in the massive dorm room and despite it being full, the place was really quiet and chilled. in the mornings there was free yoga. Breakfast is included and is plentiful. You can sit and eat it out in the garden or the massive common room. The... More

The views, matched only by the Secret Garden style yard, made we weep, in the happy way. Staff were the highlight here; always on hand to help and willing to lend an ear. Buy the green wine from the fridge for 10 euros and sit in the garden drinking in the rays. Rooms were clean and water pressure strong.

Wasn't sure what to expect and we were very pleasantly surprised. Lovely friendly, welcoming people who were very happy to help and able to impart some local knowledge. Double room was lovely, bathrooms not en suite but you are staying in a hostel! Breakfast in the garden was a lovely treat. Would definitely visit again.

We only spent one night here but would totally recommend it. Fab decor, really comfy bed. Best feature for me was the garden during the day and at night. Hosts were friendly and the place is really quirky. It is down a very steep hill, as are most things in Portugal but only 2mins from the palace. Great traditional resteraunt... More
