Small, boutique hotel that had numerous cosy seating areas and lounges. We were upgraded to a suite and had a separate lounge. Just beautiful in every way. Black out shutters, comfy bed, clean bathroom. Host was super friendly and helpful. Restaurant food out rounding and much better than local village. Couldn’t get a more perfect location. Walk down the hill 5 minutes to the village of Sintra and up the hill 5 mins to the Iniation Well and Palace. Cannot fault this place.

What a beautiful little place. I had read about how difficult parking is in Sintra. We pulled up in front of the hotel where there were four spots sanctioned off. We were told it's OK to park there over night. The hotel was quaint, clean and the staff was beyond hospitable. This hotel is centrally located and you couldn't ask for a better place to stay.

Stay here when you visit Sintra

The is a beautiful hotel. Historic, but with all the modern amenities a guest would need. The guest rooms are well appointed, and our room had a fantastic view of the forest.

In the fairytale town of Sintra, surrounded by palaces and castles on all its many peaks, the Lawrence’s Hotel is the best place to rest and recuperate after a day of touring. Their restaurant serves 5-star meals and the charming little bar and full service spa are available to guests and other travelers.

Charming stay in a historic hotel

We were given a lovely upgrade to a suite with a very nice view. The bathroom however should undergo some renovation and I was cold. A warm duvet on the bed would have been nicer than just a thin blanket. But the. Again it was unusually cold and wet outside

Obviously a historic hotel that has been there for 200+ yrs, but the facilities were dated. The bathroom needs an update - grout missing/chipped sanitary wear. However was kept very clean and staff were very lovely and helpful. Also strange drain smell from my bathroom. Overall a nice stay but wouldn’t go back there again.
