Cascais Hotels with Balcony

Beautifully located, ultra-modern facilities, friendly staff, the only downside is the busy and noisy road between the hotel and the sea...

Everything about this hotel was exceptional. The room was wonderful, Deluxe room with Sea view. Clean and lots of extra treats, cakes and chocolates daily and mini bar stocked with non alcoholic drinks. The staff here are exceptional, friendly providing a first class service. The Evening meal in the restaurant was gourmet food at its best and the staff were very knowledgeable about the wines. The buffet breakfast was fantastic, plenty of choice. The hotel itself was beautiful, the location great, the parking was easy. The spa facilities were truly wonderful. I would definitely recommend this hotel. They have the right balance of providing luxury whilst being family friendly.

I stayed on my own for 5 nights in this lovely hotel. The staff couldn't have been more friendly or helpful - the best service I have received anywhere! They helped with booking taxis, finding a cashpoint, the train station etc. I had a small problem with my sink plug and that was attended to the same day. Even the cleaners who came to my room were lovely :) When I returned from a day out, I was always greeted warmly. I found the bed a bit hard for my lower back, but manageable, and the pillows were very big and comfy. The TV had a few English speaking channels for films. My room faced the sea' overlooking the pool and had a nice balcony with seating. There was also a small fridge in the room but there was a charge for using the tea & coffee making facilities and the bottled water. Breakfast is a huge buffet-style meal; it's mostly cold (fruit, pastries, yoghurt, cold meats and cheeses), though they also have bacon, sausages, mushrooms & tomatoes. If you want something not on the buffet , eg the only pre-made eggs are scrambled, it can be ordered, but the wait can be quite long. One morning it was 15mins, the next it was 20mins for a poached egg. In the evening there is a bar menu and also a full restaurant service. The hotel had only been open for a few months and was exceptionally clean and beautifully appointed. It's about a 10min walk down to the seafront - a bit longer back as it's up hill! It is next to a busy road and you can hear the road noise, but not see it as it's screened with hedges etc. The pool is quite small and unheated but nice to have somewhere to lounge outside- there is no garden. The town of Cascais has a huge municipal park with lots of trees, a cafe and plenty of different areas for sitting with a picnic. There are lots of birds there too - including free-ranging chickens! There are several sandy beaches in Cascais and plenty of museums and art galleries. Lots of places to eat with local food and some smaller shops - and of course, the beautiful black & white mosaic Portuguese pavements. It felt very safe as a solo female traveller. You can catch a train to Lisbon or Estoril very easily and cheaply. A day return ticket to Belem was 6 euros. There isn't a direct train service to Sintra, but the Tourist Information Office in Cascais has info about guided day trips - unfortunately when I was there most of Sintra was closed due to the forest fires further north and risk of them spreading. I believe there is a direct bus service.

The location of the hotel is quite good! There are many restaurants downstairs. A short walk from the beach. The most important thing is the unbeatable sea view of the restaurant! recommend! ! ! The old waiter at the restaurant diagonally opposite is a bit annoying... Oh and, there is a parking lot, which is free.

First hotel to stay in Portugal. Good location and good service. And with access control, very safe and comfortable.

Really lovely hotel.which is kept spotless and staff are all so helpful and friendly..The lifts were a pain waiting for them.and it's not very obvious where stairs are... Food was delicious and pool kept spotless...Will.definitely return to this great place.Food

A good place for travel and vacation, the surrounding environment is beautiful, you can go to the seaside. The breakfast is plentiful, the rooms are large and the facilities are complete. The front desk service is particularly good, introducing local tourist resources in detail. Need to drive.

My wife and I stayed here recently on a golf tuition break, and loved it. It’s a beautiful hotel, and feels very luxurious and new. Our room was very nice — spacious, with a huge bed and sparkling bathroom (great shower!). We were lucky enough to have a view of the golf course, principally the second hole, and I spent a lot of time watching people tee off from the balcony. We weren’t on an all-inclusive rate, but still enjoyed plenty of food choices. The lower ground floor is essentially divided into three separate spaces — there’s the Rocca restaurant, for fine dining in the evening; Five Palms for the fairly substantial buffet breakfast; and our favourite, Trent Jones, which does excellent burgers, pasta and snacks. This is where we spent a lot of our time, particularly after realising that they were showing the English Premier League games! The staff were excellent — very courteous, knowledgeable and friendly. At one point they even let us have the remote control to choose our own games! We also spent quite a bit of time basking in the sun by the lovely outdoor pool. There’s also an indoor pool, which is heated (the outdoor pool is not, although you soon get used to it after a brisk dunk). But our main goal was to try to improve our golf game, and it’s here where Quinta da Marinha truly excels: Artur, the golf pro who gave us lessons, was wonderful and has really given us a solid basis, essentially teaching us the art of the golf swing from scratch. We really enjoyed the driving range, and I even got to play a couple of rounds on the wonderful 18-hole course. The 13th hole, with an incredible view of the Atlantic, is a must see! We loved it, and can’t wait to return to either this or the Boutique Hotel, where we also stayed for a few days. I’ll write a separate review for that — we had a golf course view there too! Highly recommended!

The hotel is great, 5 minutes walk from the door is the gate of hell, the seaside scenery is really beautiful, deep blue sky, rough waves, breakfast is also great, there is also low coffee specially for caffeine intolerant people

Lovely spacious room with balcony overlooking the marina! The bathroom was a little outdated with no walk-in shower but only a minor point. This is a very large hotel which is part of the renovated 16th century Citadel and can only be accessed by car through the gates and across the square. Unloading of the car can be done outside and the car then parked in an underground secure car park close by. The hotel cannot be accessed from the car park. However, the help given with luggage by the porter was very much appreciated and delivered to the room. This was reversed when we left with the porter again taking all our luggage from the room to the car parked in front. Reception staff were professional. Servicing the room was quite late but when asked the housekeeping staff did there best to clean the room when we returned in the afternoon - they have a lot of rooms to service! Breakfast was lovely on the roof with great views - we were lucky with weather and we were able to sit outside with our dog every morning! Choices were good, and hot food can be ordered; the staff were cheerful and helpful! We used both pools during our stay and the indoor was small but lovely and the outdoor roof top pool was also OK with loungers. The walk to the outdoor pool was lengthy....the walk anywhere inside the hotel can be long depending on where you are located and you can easily lose your way.......however, we found a quick way to the outside opposite the lovely marina with some very good shops and restaurants! The hotel was also a reasonable 15 minutes walk into the lovely town of Cascais with lots of places to eat and drink and shopping!
