What guests think

At Sintra1012 Boutique Guesthouse, travelers consistently praise the welcoming host and central old-town location, and many say the property is quiet at night; some rooms are spacious and comfortable, though a few guests noted firm beds.

The property’s historic-center setting means cars and rideshares cannot reach the door, so arrivals often include a short walk and stairs. Most find rooms clean and quiet, but recurring comments mention dampness in basement or studio spaces and occasional shower quirks. Breakfast is widely praised for quality and variety, though a few disliked the setup, coffee, or start time. Expect a warm, centrally located stay with personal guidance for exploring Sintra.

Unique and interesting property. We stayed 2 days and received a complimentary upgrade to a large suite. Weather was rainy and cold, so we didn't get to enjoy the outdoor sitting area, but it looked lovely. Breakfast very good and our hostess congenial. Only criticism is that tables and chairs were very small and cramped for eating.

The listing showed that there was laundry in the basement suite, but actually there was none. This was inconvenient because I was counting on getting the laundry done in Sintra. Fortunately, the owner helped us find a solution, so it worked out okay. The owner probably has the listing fixed by now, but if not, I would double check with the owner before counting on laundry. The basement suite is spacious and comfortable, but it did seem a little damp until I realized that I should be running the dehumidifier. Actually, I'm told that all of Sintra is damp so it may not have been unusual for there to be a little bit of humidity. The basement suite was very clean!

Room was in the back cottage area and was small but quaint, quiet and very clean. Bed was comfortable (firm). Door had pass code check in and host made sure we were comfortable using the code.Both the afternoon host and morning host were very friendly. Coffee ( any style) and breakfast were both great... The hotel is down an alley but there was a hotel sign at the top of the road and was easy to find with Google maps. This hotel was good value for the $. Would recommend.

Karen and her team are attentive and knowledgeable. We booked a room in Sintra for three days and it was adequately furnished with amenities but smaller than we expected for a longer than overnight stay. The room was very humid and there was condensation collecting on windows daily. Our books warped from the humidity, could have used a dehumidifier, but maybe it was because of the unseasonably warm weather? Breakfast was delicious and had a good variety of options.

It was an easy walk from the station. I was able to arrive early and leave my bag in the room while they were cleaning, then return in the afternoon and let myself in. The basement room was a whole apartment, there were small windows so it did not feel like a basement. Breakfast was delicious.

I stayed in a room where the sink was used by Queen Amélia (First, I thought the sink was dirty since it was stained and then realized there was a note saying that the sink was preserved due to that so I felt silly). The room was big enough and the bathroom was huge. Only downside is the shower. There is a curtain that sticks onto you and as others have said, you accidently knock over the handle, you can either burn your skin or freeze. No in between lol. The location is great. It's close to the small downtown area Sintra has. You do have to go down a non-suspecting alley to reach the Boutique and the rooms are located in a separate building not even a minute further. The breakfast was fresh and tasty, lots of choices.
