Palacio Estoril

"We absolutely loved this hotel, it is stunning and so well looked after. It is spotlessly clean, the gardens are constantly maintained and the rooms are lovely. It is classy and traditional but still so sleek and nothing feels dated. The staff are all so helpful, the concierge are fantastic and everyone is very friendly. The pool area is wonderful, such a big pool and plenty of sun beds and parasols for all guests. The water is also not cold. For breakfast there was plenty of choice and the food was great. There is nothing I can fault about this hotel! The only minor thing I could say is the walls are a bit thin so you can hear other guests if they are loud - we did have an issue with the people in the room next door but the hotel did everything they could to sort this out for us, they offered to move our room and spoke to the guests so we could not ask for better service. The room was also a bit small but there was lots of storage space so it was fine. I would highly recommend this hotel, we had a fabulous holiday."

"From the moment we walked in, everything felt special—even the hotel smelled wonderful. Staying here felt a little like stepping back in time, to an era when hospitality truly meant something and exceptional service was simply the standard. The staff were gracious, attentive, and seemed genuinely proud of the hotel. Breakfast was abundant and beautifully presented, with plenty of staff making sure every detail was taken care of. Nothing felt rushed or overlooked. The hotel itself is a gorgeous example of traditional elegance. You can almost imagine the parties and celebrations that must have taken place here over the years. The details are wonderful—embroidered napkins, logoed china, beautiful furnishings—and the entire property has been impeccably maintained without losing its history or character. There is something increasingly rare about a hotel like this. It has a sense of place, history, and gracious hospitality that you simply don't find very often anymore. A truly memorable stay. I want to live there!"

"We stayed here for 4 days. The rooms are comfortable but a little dated. Nice Molton Brown Products in bathroom. The walk in wardrobe was cute. We found it very expensive - 12 euro for a bottle of water. The breakfast was really lovely. Staff helpful. Pool was lovely but many children playing. The pool side food was really good. Would we come back? Probably not, but a lovely few days."
