The indoor pool had a film of algae in the drains around the edges. The jacuzzi buttons on the indoor pool did not work (1 out of 4 worked). The outdoor pool - At one end in the bottom of the pool was an un-capped drain hole which if you stepped on it was painful. The decking around the outdoor pool was in poor repair. On one side of the pool was a small hole which had such high suction that it could trap fingers or worse, injure a child. As an adult it was hard to remove my hand from this suction hole. this was just below the water level. Other than the dangerous state of the outdoor pool, the hotel was great and the staff were brilliant.

Overall the hotel is ok but definitely not 5*. The communal areas are pretty shabby, as are some aspects of the room, and there is very little atmosphere. We also had to ask for our coffee pods to be refreshed every day. On the plus side the location is great, the building is historically interesting and the staff were friendly.

the staff at this hotel were exceptional.

This is an amazing property built within a fortress and palace of the late King of Portugal. The rooms, facing a beautiful view of the water, look onto a marina with shops and restaurants. During the evening DJ music can be heard from the marina up to 2 am which can affect sleeping conditions. There are two very nice pools which added a lot of value to my experience. The outdoor pool is a bit of walk up some stairs but the ocean and grassy area around the pool is very nice. Unfortunately, there was no pool services outdoors where used towels and dishware sat. It was hard to find a clean towel. As a five star property , I expected the bed comfort to match the rating. Unfortunately, it did not. The mattress was soft and bouncy and needed replacement. My back hurt getting up every morning and that affected my overall experience. The hotel provides a wide array of food for breakfast including fresh squeezed juices, made to order coffee drinks, pastries , breads, meats, cheeses, vegetables and made to order eggs and omelettes. As a gluten free eater, there was no pastries to choose from and the small amount of bread they provided was packaged in plastic and not very good. I really enjoyed the location being close to town but away from the hustle and bustle of the touristy town of Cascais. There is a very nice walking and biking path from the hotel that overlooks the ocean. The art district that surrounds the hotel adds a lot of value and interest to the property.
