"A great little hotel close to the beach, the casino and a leisurely walk to either Cascais, Estoril.
The thing I consider that make a hotel great are:
Cleanliness, functioning air-conditioning, available hot water, comfortable beds and pillows, blackout curtains, friendly staff, onsite parking or available street parking, great breakfast, fast attention to any problems that arise.
Hotel Londres ( London) has all of the above features. Their room rates are unbelievable. I stayed at the Evolution Hotel for 1 night, Hotel Londes for 1 night, 2 nights at Quinta da Comporta then back for 4 nights, checking out early Sunday morning. Admittedly the room rate for the last night was nearly double the previous rates, but rest assured, it was SIGNIFICANLTY cheaper that the online rates that peaked at AUD$874 for the last Saturday night.
There was the SBC Summit (Lisbon) — the global betting & iGaming convention — being held 16–18 September 2025 at FIL (Feira Internacional de Lisboa) & MEO Arena, drawing ~30,000 delegates.
I had breakfast in hotel most days. It was included in the rate. The hotel has a Happy Hour and fixed price dinner. I was unable to sample either as I was drinking and dining with family and friends. For the price of an entree at Vintage Estoril you get a 3 course meal for €22 . Their Wine and Drink list is an Alcoholics dream...Humour intended. Cocktails around €10-12 and not €18-20.
There is no onsite parking but dozens of spots available in the street. Charges are levied from 9:00am till 8:00pm at €.90 per hour. I was in and out of the hotel and arriving back most nights after midnight. Parking was never an issue.
If you contact the hotel directly I am assured you will get a better rate than online. I usually use AirBnb when staying in the Monte Estoril area. AirBnb stiffed me as did the owner of the property Sebastian. Right proper A-hole. I was in a jam trying to find accommodation at the last minute. Really .. Hotel Londres was my saviour. I had driven past is on numerous occasions on previous visits. I knew where it was and was an easy walk to where I needed to be and that was close to Pirouette.
I intend to stay there on future visits and maybe try the other features of the hotel I have missed out on, namely the Salt and Pepper Restaurant, the Verandah Bar and the pool. And...the staff are friendly... not like the ones at the Evolution Hotel in Lisbon. I was not happy after that stay."
