The staff at this hotel were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our 4 night stay. The rooms were immaculate and very comfortable. We also enjoyed the delicious breakfast each morning and loved the convenient location close. It felt like home.

Great location, clean and great service
This hotel is beautiful and the perfect location for exploring the Medina. It was clean and the service was superb. Our only complaint was the bed was very hard but maybe some people would appreciate that.

This is a truly unique boutique hotel. The staff are lovely and the beds and showers get 10/10. The location is fabulous, and so is the building. But the thoughtful and quirky touches that make it a home from home are what really gives it the edge. Sintra is a beautiful town to visit, this Chalet made it even more memorable. I wish there were more (affordable) unique places like this in the world. Don’t stay anywhere else if you visit Sintra.

10/10 Exceptional

Chalet Suadade is the perfect spot from which to explore lovely Sintra. It's a easy one block walk from the train station, about a block to the public bus stop, an easy spot for Uber/Bolt drivers to pick-up/drop off and within walking distance of multiple sights & restaurants. Our room was comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed. Most importantly, the staff was extremely helpful with recommendations and tips and easily accomodated both an early check-in and a request to leave our (bulky) luggage behind as we explored the sites. We stayed one night -- wish we would have stayed two to fully enjoy the comfortable and cozy common spaces and to spend a bit more time exploring, especially the surrounding neighborhood. Sintra is a special place and really deserves more time. Chalet Saudade is a easy spot to just relax and enjoy. Book it!

The most beautiful hotel with the friendliest and most knowledgeable staff. We loved our family room(s) and the balcony and views were incredible!! The only suggestion we would add is to install some more table and bedside lamps as it was either main lights on or darkness. Parents with children who sleep earlier love to have a little light to themselves. Gorgeous property overall and well appointed. Would definitely stay here again!

Christina was very helpful getting us oriented. We were a little disappointed that the breakfast part was not actually at the Chalet, it was up at the Saudade cafe, a short walk away. Also, there was no free coffee on premises, only tea. Why is this? Bed was comfortable and room was quiet at night, as long as guests above went to bed. Floors very creaky. This location is not very close to area attractions or old town, so there is a lot of walking on very steep hills. You need to be in shape!
