Nicest place I've ever stayed at that price

The hotel itself is beautiful. The rooms were surprisingly modern and comfortable, without being minimal. The bathroom was large and gorgeous and had a heated marble floor. And the staff was so friendly and helpful and accommodating. Plus a beautiful breakfast service, despite there being fewer than ten rooms total. Altogether, the nicest stay I've ever had in Europe for under $200 euros per night! (Stayed in April, so maybe shoulder-season cheaper rates?)

Beautiful stay in Sintra

Villa Bela Vista was amazing and probably our favorite hotel on our Portugal trip. The room was exactly as advertised. We felt comfortable and enjoyed our time here. The view, service, and amenities were all great. We loved being able to just have breakfast here in the morning and thought it was a good spread each day with slight changes every day. They were also able to help hold our luggage for a few hours after we checked out so we could continue roaming Sintra. Overall, wonderful and would highly recommend.

Beautiful boutique hotel with great views, walking to attractions and town within 5 minutes, amazing breakfast and service. Rarely you get breakfast made to order with freshly baked basket of bread, and freshly sweets juice as most hotels let alone a boutique premise. I have to do zoom meetings and the Wi-Fi is blazing fast ( It was during off season so I am probably the few guests at the time). Alexabdra have us amazing restaurant recommendations that are already within the list of places I have decided to find within my one week in sintra (Incomune and Romarico de Baco we're the top two restaurants all within 5 minutes and 13 minutes waiting distance).

Amazing Stay in an Historic Town

Amazing hotel. Gorgeous views. Clean and comfortable. The bathroom was large and eye catching. Breakfast was nice. Staff extremely pleasant. The hotel was at the top of the town so there is some climbing involved. But the steep street right down into town starts 100 feet up the street. Not too bad even for someone walking with a cane. We found an amazing restaurant right around the corner where we had one of the best meals we have ever had-Tacho Real. A lovely interior. Highly recommend the sea bass with almond sauce and mixed salad(was enough for two). We were very glad we stayed here. Small warning: Ubers and other cars from outside the town are not allowed on the street by the hotel. When we arrived we had to walk about 200 feet and when we left we walked down into town to call an Uber.

Excellent choice - location and Value

Great location and very nice rooms. The hotel is very close to restaurants, shops, and attractions. The staff was very accommodating and spoke excellent English for those like me with limited Portuguese language skills. We were able to be dropped off and picked up at the door from our taxi.

This was one of our favorite stays in Portugal. The Inn is beautiful and clean. The staff is outstanding and the breakfast delicious. We loved that it was just short walk to the best sites and down into the town. We were so glad we spent the night rather than a day trip. It was quiet at night but we loved that! The train ride from Lisbon could not have been easier and it was a quick uber ride from the train to the Inn. We would definitely stay again.

In order to get a fulfilling experience from Sintra, I highly recommend staying at Bella Vista. This place is truly worthy of 5 stars from the location, spectacular view, contemporary appearance, comfy bed, large window doors, clean bathroom and a delightful breakfast. The staff was so helpful and accommodating to us from day one till the last day when we were having difficulties with our transportation. My wife and I want to plan a return trip to Sintra just to stay at Bella Vista. The only negative from our stay was that we were only there for 3 nights. Magnusen Family
